Restaurants in Delaware

“Great food great service. And the bourbon selection absolutely amazing. Prices are great and we were told about their Airbnb as well. Thinking of doing that in the spring / summer.”

“I went into the Restoration Brew Worx this past week and it was a great experience. I go here often for comfort food and good drinks, maybe once every 2-3 months. And every time, it's wonderful! I have not had a complaint once. Everyone is so friendly and you will see a lot of familiar faces! I love to get wine here, but if I feel like drinking a beer, it's a cider - and they have some amazing ones. Some are seasonal, but it's worth it to stop in and try. As for food, I usually get the nachos or a sub. Which are really good. But this time, I chose to try to big girl grilled cheese, with added bacon. That toasted bread and cheese is so good! You can also add apples if you want, which I didn't, but I regret not doing that, because I'm sure it adds a lot. So I'll have to do that next time! They also have some specials, like this smash burger. The meat was so flavorful and delicious. Also, I think that their fries are my favorite from any local restaurant. They are so crispy and well seasoned. I never eat all my fries but I cleared my plate this time! The atmosphere in here is so joyful and friendly too, I would give it a try if you haven't yet.”

“Excellent food and great service at the Delaware location”

“🌹 Rosebuds in Delaware, Ohio – A Hidden Gem That Delighted Me Beyond My Wildest Dreams! 🌹 ⭐️ 9.2/10 If you’re looking for a dining experience that feels like a hug from your grandmother mixed with the elegance of European-style pacing and service, Rosebuds is your next stop. This charming little spot took me by surprise—from the nostalgia of vintage Pfaltzgraff dishes and familiar silverware patterns, to an eclectic menu full of global inspiration. Italian, Greek, American classics, Nashville hot chicken, fresh Maine-style lobster rolls, and a cheeseburger that could hold its own in any high-end bistro. Here’s what we tried: 🍽 Whipped Feta Dip – Creamy, dreamy , and so flavorful. We ran out of veggies before we ran out of dip, but the incredible staff noticed and brought more without us even asking. THAT is service. 🍽 Chicken Parmesan – Fresh pasta and a spicy vodka sauce that was plated beautifully with fresh basil you tear at the table (very European). A few bites of the chicken were tough and should have been trimmed, but overall the dish was still delicious. 🍽 Nashville Hot Chicken – Crispy, zingy, and on par with what you’d find in Tennessee. They even accommodated my cabbage allergy by putting the slaw on the side—love that flexibility! 🍽 Lobster Roll – Small, yes, but packed with flavor. I could have used a bit more butter and lemon, but it still brought me right back to a beach trip in Maine. 🍽 Lemon Pepper Steak – I was skeptical… now I’m a believer. Each bite had us literally oohing and aahing. So well done! 🍽 The Cheeseburger – Melted white cheese in all its ooey-gooey glory. A showstopper. Seriously, this might set a new bar for burgers. 💫 The cocktails? Expertly crafted. Whether you’re kicking off your evening or winding it down, the drink menu delivers. Most importantly—the pacing and service were flawless. It reminded me of dining in Europe, where you’re not rushed, your meal unfolds intentionally, and the experience matters just as much as the food. It’s something I’ve really missed in the local dining scene lately, and Rosebuds got it 100% right. 🚨 One heads up: the restaurant wasn’t open when I stopped by on a Thursday, so it’s best to check ahead. Also, while the food is divine, a couple of dishes felt slightly overpriced for their portion sizes—especially when listed as “big plates.” But that intimacy, that charm, and that level of service? It made it all worth it. We’ve now been three times—and I can honestly say this place is delightful and charming.”

“WOW! Festbier just came on Tap and is wonderful. Best in Class. They should enter it into a competition. It would win GOLD!”

“The staff here were fantastic to work with. They were so kind with accommodating a large group of us after the death of a loved one. The brunch was amazing. So many wines to choose from and the cocktails were delicious!”

“Oak & Brazen is truly special. The staff is outstanding, the drinks are excellent, and the atmosphere is beautiful. The winery is clean and inviting—I loved it so much that I chose it as my wedding venue. They also offer reservations for events. The owner is wonderful and clearly takes great pride in the experience provided. Highly recommend for date night, a night out with friends, or any type of event!”

“Stopped in on 3/15. Staff is great, everyone is friendly. The owner personally comes by and checks on you. Overall the food had good flavor, though several items were a little on the dry side. Its an easy fix if they add a little water in the smoker to prevent the food from drying out to much. Its true Texas BBQ and will return.”

“Always a good time a Bout time!”

“Our favorite lewis center hibachi so far. The staff is generally efficient and the chefs are friendly and entertaining. The food is exceptional, especially for the price you pay. We come here once a month.”

“Went there today for the first time, the gentleman running the register and I’m pretty sure cooked all my food was soo polite and friendly! I ordered a mushroom Swiss double burger with mayo and lettuce I asked for some sorta specific stuff he was soo kind and said it was easy to do no problem. The. I also got the beef tallow waffle fries and onion rings with chipotle ranch. He even asked if I wanted ketchup. While cashing out he suggested a pop from their soda fountain of delicious real cane sugar craft sodas! I love a good cream soda so I was super excited to try. Good didn’t take but 10 mins, pack up quick and handed off with a smile. The food.. 10/10.. everything was delicious hot and crispy not soggy and covered in oil. I’m not saying I’m picky by any means but I know a good burger joint.. this is absolutely a hidden Gem here in Delaware! I will absolutely be recommending these guys and will be back!”

“Was absolutely delicious. The place was such a vibe. The experience was great. I got a chocolate chip cookie and the chocolate chips were melted perfectly and softly. The service was great. The lady helped me pick out what cookie I wanted, but I’m basic so I got a chocolate chip.”

“Great food, great atmosphere.”

“The food is excellent!!!!”

“Love It! Amazing Drinks, Food and Service!”

“Awesome vibes from this coffee shop! Super friendly staff and tasty drinks. Everything was very clean and reasonably priced, which is a nice change from most other coffee places. Highly recommend!!”

“Absolutely need to visit!! Wide selection or beers and local spirits. Two food trucks outside as well. Indoor seating at bar, table area in bar and separate room seating. Outside had patio seating with a lot of uncovered tables in the rock areas. Multiple fire pits with seating as well. House cat named Mittens, friendly just watch for signs of overstimulated by petting. Huge grass area in the middle and on the side area as well.”

“I ordered the rye bread. Oh my goodness! It’s so good. I only wish it was a taller loaf that would make a great Reuben.”

“Staff provide excellent customer service in a meaningful and personal way! For example, they remember my go-to order.

Atmosphere is warm and inviting from the excellent customer service to the Christian Contemporary music softly playing in the background to the simple yet homey decor. It’s the perfect place to stop for a sweet treat or even a gift for a loved one!💕”

“Great customer service!!! Yummy food & drinks. One of our favorite restaurants even if we have to drive out of town. Big or small groups. Family friendly. Make you feel right at home!!! A huge menu selection with a variety of shrimp, fish, chicken, steak, pork, birria, ect. Something for everyone. Go & enjoy yourselves!!! Pictured is Menudo.”

“My wife and I have been in four times since the change of ownership. Ana is super and very engaging. The food is great and they offer a few authentic Mexican offerings. Their Birria Tacos are the best I have had in Delaware! Highly recommend!”

“I love The Rutherford Cafe! They have delicious food with vegetarian + vegan options. Everything I’ve had is delicious and it’s not just a deli sandwich shop. Their flavors have depth using the perfect balance of quality ingredients!”

“Great place for a healthier lunch with generous portions. Many ingredient options and a nice atmosphere. They even have Olipop which is a healthier soda option I love.👍 I will definitely be back to try the many different flavor options they have available.😋”

“Went in for a pick-up tonight and the manager was so kind to help fill my order after we realized I ordered at the wrong location. Thank you so much for the great service!”

“The food is fantastic & everyone is so friendly! Love the energy here!”

“Absolutely the best carrot ever!”

“Awesome experience. Amazing food ( had Katsu chicken with salad - highly recommended ). Enjoyed classic Margarita...amazing sstaff. Beautiful and relevant indolore décor gives you perfect Hawaiian vibes.....Will visit again and again.”

“Okay listen… I’m not even a “wing person.” Like, at all. But somehow I’ve found myself in a committed relationship with the Nashville Hot wings from here—we’re talking at least once a week kind of hooked. 🔥🍗 They’re crispy, spicy, and somehow life-changing? Basically, if you see me on a random Wednesday, odds are I’m elbows-deep in a basket of them. And don’t even get me started on their Stromboli. We’ve done the “tour de Stromboli” around here and this one takes the crown. Cheesy, loaded, and baked just right—honestly, it ruined all the other Strombolis for me. So yeah, wings for the wing-hater, Stromboli fit for royalty… 10/10 recommend. Just don’t beat me there when I’m picking mine up. 😅”

“Me and My Daughter brought our Aunt and Uncle who is town from Arizona. They are having the best time of their life playing pool on Monday it’s free . On top of that we had the best bartender Daytona.”

“Wonderful menu & service. Appreciate the great staff & family like atmosphere with my daughter working there.”

“Great environment, great food, great people”

“The tiramisu gelato is incredible and they truly go above and beyond for their customers. Can't wait to stop in to try the crepes and an affogato!”

“This is the best Mexican restaurant ever! Everyone will make you feel “en casa”. Food: Delicious Drinks: Amazing People: more than friendly If you want to have a 100% traditional Mexican food in a nice place surrounded by great people, go to La Matraca!”

“I have never had a bad experience at this Bibibop location. The staff is always welcoming, well trained and knowledgeable about the food dishes. I visit this location 2-3 times a week and it always is a great experience.”

“Love LOVE love the Rueben and Nashville Hot Steak specialty pizza!!!! AND the crust is delicious! Great staff!”

“Very clean and the staff is super friendly! I forgot the full name but it was Turtle Mocha I think. Pretty good! They are connected to a bank so that’s the open area on the middle of the two places. I’d come back! They do have a drive thru!”

“Finally tried the Chicken and Dumpling Soup tonight! And it was DELICIOUS!!”

“Absolutely wonderful brewery, very attentive staff, wonderful selection! Very beautifully decorated and incredible food, their burgers are AMAZING! The wife and I love to come here for date nights and not once have we ever had a bad experience, I’d definitely recommend to my friends! You can also bring your furry friend and sit on the patio, which is such a nice change.”

“Great local pub! Staff is awesome Especially Fawn who likes bagels as much as I do😁”

“On the upper end of BBQ. Corn pudding a nice change from most. Meat portion a bit small. Side portion bigger than most. Brisket was worth the trip but may need to double up on the meat order.”

“Tremendous Pizza, friendly staff, and great atmosphere!! First time won’t be last time!! One thing how about adding some Italian wedding soup or a soup of the day during these cold winter days!!”

“it was Dairy Delish when I was a Kid, and had Quart mega phone Root Beer containers. Always bought one before each Pacers Home Football Game. they were 50¢. I worked there cleaning the Place every morning.”

“Had to wait a little for a table (10 minutes ), but food was worth it. Got noodles, sesame chicken and a sushi platter to share. Edame for appetizer. Could not eat it all. We were traveling, chose something we could not get at home. Did not dissapoint.”

“It doesn't matter if you are in the restaurant or order for delivery, the quality is impeccable! This is our go to for fresh and savory Mexican food. No one can beat it! Wish they had crunchy taco options but that is not a deal breaker when it comes to flavor! Phenomenal food every single time! Thanks Las Miches!”

“Good Atmosphere family friendly”

“The food is great, and so is the service👍”

“Drove an hour to visit a local tattoo shop, walking out the smell of the food drew us to try Joy’s… DEST DECISION EVER! The food was exactly what I look for in Chinese food! It’s hard to find a place around that reminds me of what I ate when I was younger. Needless to say, I looked at my husband 3 bites in and told him any time he wants Chinese food, we can drive the hour there. 10/10 on both food and service. The cashier was so awesome and had an amazing sense of humor! The owner was there and was absolutely wonderful!”

“The people who run this franchise are so kind every. single. time I go in. I recommend them highly. Enjoy! By the way, I was reading earlier reviews, please disregard them, as Pulp here in Sandusky is under new ownership and management. I promise you'll want to leave a positive review if you give them a try!”

“Hands down my family’s favorite place to eat when we go out. The crust and bread is to die for and the staff can’t be beat! Moe, Syd, Des, and G make you feel like family and the vibe is always on-point. The menu is smaller, but every single item is perfection and it’s clear they don’t half-ass anything 🤙🏼”

“Amato's is one of our go-to places~ Not just for the pizza, but for the yummy veggie platters, and other great food.”

“Came here to Delaware for a chill night with some drinks, found a fun little dive bar! Close to a OWU so watch out for college kids on the weekends, but still not a bad vibe at all.

CHEAP and Yummy drinks! (They pour decent here!) Not too much to do unless they are hosting an event like karaoke. Really just a good spot to chat and drink! They do have a touch-tunes! (Everyone can pay to queue up music!)

Bringing my friend here for her 21st ;)”

“Nice little place with good food! We had the Hush Puppies, a Cuban and the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich. All were good! We we enjoying the Hush Puppies so much we almost for got the pic LOL”

“The most real folks in town. The owner offers great customer service; everybody's welcome. There are a lot of activities during the week. Bliny's Bar "TOP NOTCH"”

“I have always loved the smoothies, today I got a salad and my daughter had a sandwich. They were amazing! The girl at the window was very pleasant and our order was ready in no time. This is one of my go to places. Always clean inside, and friendly staff. I love this place!!!”

“The Dragon House is recommend on several of the "best of" sites. Many of the sites write about the delicious food and the large portions for a reasonable price. What impressed us the most was the wonderful waitress. She answered our questions and carried on a conversation throughout our meal. We plan to go back to visit her as much as try sometime else on the menu.”

“I've been getting takeout from Shanghai since my mother was pregnant with me and that's not an exaggeration. The food is reliably amazing and the service is always fast. The staff are all very kind.”

“Ordered for delivery today and it came right out of the oven which is always a plus. The pizza, subs, and cheesy bread were all delicious! 🤤 🍕”

“We haven't ordered from here in along while and decided to give it a go since our regular pizza spot hasn't been awesome lately. Both pizzas and meat balls were excellent! everything was hot and loaded with toppings. The delivery was exactly on time and our driver was so nice.”

“This place delivers restaurant-quality Mexican food at drive-thru speed—and does it better than most sit-down spots. Every bite tastes fresh, authentic, and made with care. Delaware is lucky to have this gem. Hits the spot every time.”

“Looks like the first Planet Smoothie in the Columbus metro area, right on US 23 in Delaware. The Açaí bowl and smoothie were absolutely delicious! I’ll definitely be a regular whenever I'm in the area.”

“I would have rated them 1 star a year ago, but they seem to have gotten better people. They are friendly and pretty fast. The new group is a thousand times better than they have been in the past. I hope they can keep their current employees (they make a big difference).”

“Not too bad. The staff was nice. More on that later. The burger was fresh and the fries hot. And, as a bonus, they now have fried apple pies.

Now to the staff. A gentleman came in and was disabled. After ordering he was in pain. He told me he needed hip replacements. He asked if the lady behind the counter would bring his meal to his truck. She said yes. More than impressive.”

“Cozy little local diner. I met a friend for our Christmas exchange, it was a nice quiet place for that. The patrons were sweet little old people at the time of day we were there. I got a tuna melt and it was okay. It was served cold which surprised me.”

“Nice wait staff, good French onion soup and good shrimp and fish plate. Being a New Englander, gotta say they get the fish -n- chips right.”

“First time at this location and I can honestly express my delight. The gentleman who was working in there today was extremely pleasant to be around and I noticed he either knew he customers or made an effort to get to know you in a non-evasive manner. All while making your order quick and efficiently. I say you should stop in and say hi whenever you're craving a good sandwich and a delightful experience!”

“The morning staff was very friendly, kind, and accommodating! The atmosphere was clean and pleasant. The food was hot and delicious. First time having breakfast at a Wendy's. We'll be back!”

“Had a family lunch here and everyone enjoyed the food. Prices were reasonable as well.”

“Very pleasant staff with amazing customer service! Food was fresh and amazing! I would love to have this subway close to home instead of any other. Veggies so fresh and cold. Sauce was even fresh and cold! A very pleasant experience for being at a subway that I've ate before just not at this store. Thanks again!”

“Fast & Freindly Employes !!! Good & Hot Food !!! Awesome Large Selection of Drinks !!!”
