New American Restaurants near Mendenhall, PA

“Always wonderful photographing weddings at this incredible venue. Amazing architecture and a super-friendly staff who serve the most delicious food. Highly recommended!“

“Had a lovely dinner with the family, early on a Sunday evening.
Our first time at Kid Shelleen's. It was much bigger than it appears at first. We had our two granddaughters with us, one is very vocal and not great at getting food into her mouth. We were conveniently tucked into the back corner where we didn't bother any other patrons, thanks to the wonderful staff. So thankful for their kindness and attention.“

“I cannot rave more about our experience today. The manager Steve returned my call right away when booking for my larger party … it was clear he is super well-organized. Service with Chris was exceptional. Everyone loved the food & drinks ~ plenty of tasty options for vegetarians and folks with Celiac’s. This continues to be my go-to restaurant in WC! Thank you!“

“Tonight was our first night trying Portabello’s. We had an excellent dinner! My wife had the chicken parmigiana and I had the stroganoff. We shared the chocolate decadence cake for dessert. Had an excellent server named Erica. We will be back.“

“I tried the mozzarella as an appetizer and the Tenderloin for the meal. The mozzarella was very good. Between the peppers and topping that was a great was to start out. The Tenderloin was ok. The Gravy had a very good flavor but the meat itself i didn't think was that good. The mashed potatoes were nicely prepared and the asparagus was hot but still had a snap to them, which is just the way I like it. Add a nice bourbon to it all and it makes for a good meal. Cozy atmosphere to the place. Definitely worth checking out.“

“The small plates were delicious and beautiful, nice atmosphere and Maria our server was outstanding. It was a very enjoyable dinner and they made my husband's birthday special.“

“Great spot indoors or out.“

“Food hits way above its price and expectations and there are a lot of options; no matter what you get add a side of fries. The drink choices are great and if you can’t decide you can buy 6oz instead. I’d highly recommend for a casual dinner out.“

“Had my first Roots experience today! The cafe is beautiful, staff is fantastic, and the food is incredible! Cannot wait to go back❤️“

“We ate here last night, we had the best food and the best waiter! It was a treat all around!“

“I think this restaurant is the best one in Hockessin!!“

“Was pleasantly surprised at the quality and level of service at this restaurant. Ordered a scallop dish and a pasta dish and were totally blown away! Will definitely go back next time we visit.“

“Best burgers in Delaware. Service is always exceptional.“

“Administrative details - While you usually must make a reservation a year in advance (which I did), there are a very few earlier spots available on their website. In addition, if you are on the email list, they send the occasional last-minute availability. Talula’s is BYOB. The price was $125 and with all the other things, taxes, gratuities, it came to $160. The Nook Table is available for 6-8 diners and the Farm Table is for larger parties. Website link is below. Everything is presented in “tasting” small portions. In addition to the menu, they provided a couple of additional offerings. I did not do a good job of capturing the delightful descriptions of the food provided by our server. (The next time I go, I will video the descriptions if they allow.) The group did a great job of bringing wine which was beautifully poured in appropriate glassware by our server. The server also paired the wine with the offerings for us! The service was exceptional without being pretentious. After each tasting, plates, utensils and glasses were cleared and refurbished so discreetly that you hardly noticed. The menu changes with the “farm to table” availability. My favorite was a squash tarte. [I was delighted to find that I did not like the foie gras. It is “made” in a most inhumane and horrible way. This is the only time I have eaten it and I will never eat it again.] I was sorry to find that by the Black Garlic Beef Ribeye (#6 on the list), I was getting to the point of “too much food.” The only downsides were “too much food” for most of us and the wines they suggested for the pairings were hard/impossible to find. I personally did not like the varieties of wines they suggested for pairings. The rest of the party enjoyed the comparable wines they were able to find and allowed the server to pair with the tastings. I will be making a reservation for next year very soon. I have already made a reservation for the “sister” Talula’s Garden in Philly for September.“

“Dinner was excellent. Ordered lots on the menu and each was outstanding. The skate melted in your mouth. Tasted like chicken. Lamb carpaccio, pork steak, rainbow trout, ravioli, funghetti. Well worth it.“

“Dined solo on a Wednesday night. Had the steamed mussels from the specials menu as starter and the Thai seafood curry for dinner. Both were well prepared. Seafood fresh and plump. Good flavors. Attentive and friendly service. Very pleasant night.“

“Amazing experience at The Pear last night! Matt and Francesca were both wonderful. Delicious food. If you haven’t made it out here yet definitely book a res and go. Soooo good.“

“Wonderful food, highly recommend the grilled shrimp and the jerk egg rolls. Enjoyed the lobster Mac n cheese too! Old fashion drink was really good!“

“Our favorite restaurant in Wilmington“

“Great spot indoors or out.“

“So good!! Small menu but it’s done perfectly!“

“we love Cafe Americana. we are there at least 2 or 3 times a week. the food is fresh, portions are big and we can't say enough about the team there. they are like our family. I really feel like we are home when we come in every time.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We came in for a relaxed Valentine’s Day lunch and had an awesome experience. The food and drinks were fantastic. The butternut squash soup was rich and comforting, and the lobster bisque was smooth, flavorful, and felt like a little indulgent treat.

That said, as good as the food was, the service somehow still managed to be the best part of the meal. Attentive without being overbearing, warm, and genuinely welcoming... it made the whole experience feel special and unrushed. Exactly what you want when you’re out for a nice date.

Great food, great drinks, and even better service. We’ll definitely be back. 💚🍲🥂“

“The staff was so amazing. There ability to recall the menu and make suggestions for me was nice/helpful. We were celebrating my friends birthday and they brought out a nice cake and candle. Loved the atmosphere, the food was delicious, and desserts were out of this world tasty.“

“This place is awesome... great bar tenders specially Daniel!!! Me and my friend went on karaoke night, it's every sunday 3:30pm-8pm.. a must visit place, its amazing, crowd is very welcoming and everyone is very friendly.... Genesis is hosting the kareoke, fun fun fun experience... we will definitely be back and this time, with my girls...“

“First time I came here, I was a little nervous, but the regulars are super friendly and the bartender is great!! I went there to read, and while I did get a lot done, it was great talking to the regulars.“

“8 of us were in at Steaks today. What a great experience. Food was amazing but the service was even better. Thank you again“

“BierHaul was recommended to us by the great people of Rose Hip Barn and it was an excellent choice. Absolutely delicious food, quick service and awesome atmosphere with music playing and everyone enjoying themselves. Looking forward to trying again, especially in the summertime with their outside patio.“

“ymmmmmm food and we like it“

“Bar Avalon always delivers! The food, service, and ambiance are consistently amazing. We tried the wine and dinner pairing for the first time last night and were blown away—perfectly matched courses and a knowledgeable waitress made it a standout experience. A perfect date night. We’ll definitely be doing it again!“

“We had a fantastic experience for dinner, and cannot stop raving about how phenomenal everything was! From the relaxed atmosphere, to the friendly and welcoming staff to the absolutely delicious dinner, everything was amazing! They accommodated for gluten and dairy allergies easily and I did not feel like I was missing out on anything. Thank you for a special evening out and for preparing food the way it was meant to be enjoyed. We will be back!“

“Went for lunch with my son. We ate on the patio. It was cozy, quaint. Beautiful weather made it even more enjoyable. The food options were great; different from the same old same old. The waitress was busy but brought our drinks and food in a timely manner. Can’t wait to go back.“

“Fun but challenging track. Beautiful property. Can’t wait to go back.“

“The manager was extremely kind and helpful. We arrived very late and the kitchen was closed but he offered us a few pizza options and we were more than grateful!! Pizza was delicious and the wait staff was very friendly and attentive. We can’t wait to go back and try the rest of the menu and really appreciate how customer friendly everyone was.“

“Had a great dinner with friends last night.... menu, as usual, was excellent... but want to especially recognize our server Kara...friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating... made a fun time even more so... Ask for her... you can't go wrong.“

“One of my favorite stops! I have loved everything I’ve ordered but my favorites are their speciality lattes or the chai tea latte. It has a super chill environment and is a nice break in my day. Highly recommend❤️“

“The Back Burner has a gem in Patty. The food is always dependable, and the wine list is surprisingly reasonable for some good quality wines. I think all of these things contribute to the restaurant's staying power in Hockessin.“

“I’ve always loved Columbus Inn throughout the years and highly recommend it for quality fine dining and a quaint enjoyable atmosphere. And the front deck is an amazing spot all year round.“

“I loved it at this new restaurant! Full of wonderful food, great prices, and a terrific server. Sofia was kind and as helpful as can be. My friends and I would go back in a heartbeat! The manger was also incredibly friendly. Try it for your next outing!“

“Clean restaurant with fast service and delicious food! I have a severe food allergy which makes it hard to eat at most restaurants. However, they were very accommodating and we had the best server, Amanda, who made sure I was completely comfortable and taken care of. She was so kind, fast to answer my questions, and very knowledgeable. I definitely recommend eating here during your stay and be sure to request Amanda ☺️“

“I would normally recommend Six Paulpers, HOWEVER, last night's service was terrible. Not sure what the problem was. We first waited for quite awhile for a waitress, so we just went to the bar to get our own drinks. The waitress shows up, we order our food, and it took quite awhile to get to us. My husband got the French dip and fries, I got the cheesesteak egg rolls. The FFs were cold, greasy and had no taste. My egg rolls were burnt. I sent the FF's back, and asked to see if the chef would like to look at the FF's! She goes OK, but the chef isn't in, just the sous chef! And that was it! 🤣We had to go to the bar for another drink. We finally saw our waitress again for us to ask for the bill! Hope this was just an off night!😬“

“So far I only order for delivery but the it was prepared and delivered in a timely manager.It was cook just right and the vegetable toppings were fresh( lettuce,tomatoes,onions) After ordering once I feel as though this is the go to place in the area for me so far for as long as Im in the area.Menu's with the delivery order would be nice though.“

“Waited 40 minutes for hush puppies while the restaurant was nearly empty at 3pm. Primary food order came 5 minutes later and my son’s order was wrong. It’s a shame because the food is good. But the service has been so slow both times I’ve been here. They did comp his meal. Just expect to wait a while and enjoy your drinks. Don’t come if you’re in a hurry.“

“Very good chicken wrap and Reuben“

“I love coming to Homebase! Great environment, great food, great bartenders. Never have any problem here. I love all the events they offer whether it be trivia, word on the street, or karaoke.“

“Picked up ox tail and jerk chicken today. It was ready within a few minutes of me calling it in. Staff were super friendly, food was fantastic and price was very reasonable! I ordered larges and felt that the serving was very generous. Dropped off jerk chicken at my husband's job as a surprise treat for him, he loved it as well. Ox tail was so good I ate the entire large container in one sitting! Highly recommended this place and will most certainly be back!“

“Great food, great drinks, and always a good vibe. It’s one of those places you can count on for a fun night out. The staff is always friendly and everything we’ve had there has been really good.

I also want to give them a shoutout for supporting the community. I work for the Crime Victims’ Center and they generously donated food for one of our events in February and gave us gift cards to raffle at our big event in September.

Businesses that support local organizations and causes like that deserve recognition. Huge thank you to James for being so supportive of our mission. It really means a lot.“

“2FG knocked it out of the park for our daughter's wedding! Jeff made the planning phase and menu selection easy, he took the time to make a visit required to the venue, and made sure all of our guests had a great dinner within our budget. There was something for everyone to enjoy. Our guests especially raved about the brisket! We will absolutely use them again for future events 🌟“

“Carly makes a great espresso martini Staff is so accommodating Oh and food is delicious They nailed it Thank you Noble Goat“
