This place is certainly better than most in the general vicinity. It's not outstanding but has consistently decent service, pleasant service staff and food is cooked well. Nothing is over seasoned or over salted. We've been three times now and will be back again. read more

Bar Reverie in Greenville was... solid. The atmosphere is stylish and cozy enough for a casual night out, and while nothing totally blew me away food-wise, it was still a pleasant stop. The highlight of the visit was definitely chatting with our server. We got into a great conversation about bourbons which really made the experience feel personal. read more

They have a great wine list and seem to have some really good specials they offer as well. We sat on the patio which was really nice. The food was OK. Ceasar was pretty good, wagyu burger was pretty good but not good enough for the price. Service was alright. Probably wouldn't go back for much of the food, but would likely return for end of bin wines/happy hour style service. read more

Stopped in on a busy Fridays night but we were seated immediately. The bar was busy and we chose to sit outdoors next to the cozy fire pit on a November evening. Ray, our waiter, tended to our every need and was spot on with everything. The food was amazing, ordered crabcake, sliders, and shrimp cocktail as appetizers, then the dayboat, scallops and linguine with clams as our main courses. Had a couple of Stellas and some espresso martinis-every espresso martini gets compared to this one, as they make the best around, including a roasted marshmallow, which really defines it.. Everything was delicious, will definitely return. The place has a cool vibe, and very friendly, professional wait staff. read more

I was super excited to come to this restaurant but left disappointed. The service was not up to par for a restaurant in this area. The waiter reached over the table to serve drinks and other items and was pretty awkward all together. The oysters we very good, but the waiter didnt even know the region they were from when asked. Steaks we also good but the sides were not. We ordered glazed carrots and potato puree. The carrots were hard as a brick and not cook enough as well as no glaze, well at least non that we saw or tasted. The potato puree had chunks of potato. We ordered dessert and that was very good. Not sure if I would go back. read more

Easily one of the most impressive wine lists I've ever seen. Primarily focused on French, Italian and the U.S., they also have intriguing options from Argentina, Spain, and Lebanon. Honestly, there's something for everybody here, including the opportunity to taste and explore wines you've never had before. What I like about Bar Reverie is the multitude of options that they provide to guests. You can enjoy curated wine, tasting flights, enjoy 3 ounce pours or 6 ounce glasses, or splurge on a bottle. But the nice thing is that you multiple entry points to try wines from regions you've never enjoyed or always been curious about, as well as wines from your established favorites. For non-wine, drinkers, Bar Reverie offers plenty of options for cocktail lovers, as well as bourbon and whiskey drinkers. For lunch, we thoroughly enjoyed the Jambon Buerre, the Grilled Cheese, and the Tomato Bisque. All are absolutely perfect for a comforting meal to enjoy with your drink of choice. We found the service to be friendly and attentive, and always happy to make suggestions. The ambience was casual, cool and relaxed, the kind of place you can (and we did) spend hours in. Can't wait to head back and introduce this place to more friends and family. read more

We came here on a Wednesday night and it was packed with people who came here for happy hour. We got the HH oysters, my husband got the HH burger, I got the halibut, and my friends got the chefs pasta which was a fettuccine, and also the crab cakes. We got a watercress salad to share. For dessert we got the chocolate mousse (which had hazelnut) as well as a lemon dessert. Of all the things we ordered I think the halibut tasted the best. I am a pretty hungry person in general so the portion size was not enough to make me full off of just the halibut. The watercress salad -- it was quite sweet. The watercress itself was very fresh and good. They also gave slices of their bread with butter which was good! The fries were really good. Maybe it was just that night but expect to be there for awhile! There are not many servers so we waited awhile for things to come out / for our order / for the check / things in general. read more

The atmosphere is lovely! Nice outside, bar and inside. We were offered stools to place our purses on! We ordered drinks and waited 20 minutes for them. We could see them on the counter with the dirty dishes but still waited. It wasn't too busy but service was slow all around. Waitress was not engaged at all. Never came back to fill waters, never checked on how our meal was. Asked for dinner menus she never returned with them. We got them by ourselves. I had the croque monsieur and it was mostly bread. Definitely needed more ham. Friends salad was ok. Fries were delicious and my little lettuce salad was tasty. Lovely place. Need to up the service and food for the price. read more

Made reservations for dinner to try out the newest place in Greenville, which happens to reside right next door to its sister restaurant BBC Tavern & Grille. When we arrived it was crowded and very hot inside so I asked to be seated on the patio. The waitress came and poured water into our glasses but there was no ice - Just room temperature water? We decided to order a couple appetizers, the Lamb Lollipops and the Bougie Deviled Eggs. The lollipops came with a dipping sauce and they were very tasty and the deviled eggs were crunchy but good as well. For dinner we decided on the Cacio e Pepe and Seared Sesame Crusted Tuna. The Cacio e Pepe was more like Fettucini Alfredo with no peppery taste and the four added shrimp weren't fully cooked. The Tuna tasted okay but looked like it was frozen and then thawed. For dessert, I opted for an Aperol Spritz cocktail and it was very good. Overall, dinner was less than appealing and the apps were decent. The patio seating was nice, and service was good. However, I was surprised there was only a one person restroom for the size of the place and there was a line for the ladies room. I understand this place is new but the owners aren't new to the restaurant scene. We were just looking forward to this so much and we were disappointed. read more

I like this spot! I'm surprised I don't hear more people talking about it. Stopped in with a friend while using up some coupons I had to local businesses. We enjoyed lunch and some cocktails. It's really nice inside. Laid out well for its size + has a large outdoor area. We sat at the bar and were greeted right away. I enjoyed a margarita called the You're My Jam off the signature cocktail list - it was soo good. My friend had the You Make Miso Happy cocktail & that was super tasty also. For lunch I had the appetizer crab cake sliders. They were okay, a little dry so I added some cocktail sauce. My friend did a dine & wine special that included salad + 1/2 sandwich + a glass of house wine. I believe the 1/2 sandwich she had was a cheesesteak, it was really, really good. Overall we both agreed we had a good experience and would like to return soon. They serve brunch daily, I'm hoping to go back for that soon. read more

This is one of our favorite places; it's a safe place to visit, with ample parking out front; it's quiet (no sports, no shouting), with an intimate "wood bar" atmosphere; the bourbon selection is fantastic, many with good price points (and large pours!); the food is delicious, varied, and there are many healthy low calorie options; service is efficient and polite; the owner is often there and takes great pride in his establishment read more

Very average bar experience and a drink I couldn't even drink it was so imbalanced. Fantastic lamb lollipops.

This is our second and last time to visit restaurant. The one redeeming feature of the visit was Chelsea, our server. She was nice, engaged, and attentive without being in our faces too much. Sadly, that is where it ended - when the food was served. The "chef" must have broken his timer for timing how long to cook the food. I had Florida Snapper and it came out with one side that was so overdone it could not be cut with a fork. My wife had some Lamb Lollipops that were both poor quality and very overdone. Nice location, good outdoor area, good service, but food was severely lacking. read more

"The best burger in town" -- said the manager. He was right! The place is nice and stylish. Service is fast. All the waiters were polite. It's a bit pricey for the food, but definitely worth it! read more

We stopped in for lunch as the previous reviews led me to believe this was the best time to come. We really liked everything we ordered too. We expected smaller venue honestly and more of a panera set up. However to my surprised it was full service. They had gluten free options when I asked the server who checked with the kitchen but the menu is labeled. The lattes we had were really good and only $5! I think this is a good addition for the area! sorry all photos are on insta: emsbitez read more

Great food, lamb app was our favorite. Great espresso martinis with the added toasted marshmallow. Lovely intimate settings. We were there when it was cold out and their covered outside seating with heat was perfect! Servers were knowledgeable and attentive, great service! read more

Service was very slow and the menu was over priced for what it is. The bartender said I had an old menu and when I asked the hostess she said oh and never gave us an updated one. It's a nice place but has a lot of service issues read more

We came here for date night and our whole romantic date night was rushed to 45 minutes. We sat down and within 5 minutes of sitting we were expected to order our drinks, apps and entrees. It was a bit overwhelming especially with no explanation ahead of time. We were sat directly under a heater that was so hot I had to throw my hair up and fan myself down even after asking if they could turn it down. I was feeling faint and had to step away because of the heat. The food came out fast... too fast. We were so hot from the heater and fed so quickly it took all the romance away from our date night. The salmon was way too fishy for me, but my fiance and I did enjoy the steak. The cheese board was pretty limited. The only other plus during our experience were the cocktails. The waitress was nice, but the way we were rushed out we decided to go get desert and cocktails elsewhere. Other than that I don't think we will be returning. read more

I enjoyed a lovely Sunday brunch with my daughter. Ambiance is intimate and warm. We sat on the patio and our server was excellent. We split the French toast and quiche- delicious!! I also had a latte which was perfect. Excited to try their dinner menu. Glad to have another dining option in Greenville. read more

Bar Reverie is a great addition to the Greenville area!! The food, atmosphere, and service are unforgettable. I went for dinner last and my waitress, Carol, was kind, knowledgeable, and funny. The wine they suggested was delicious and added to my meal. The breakfast each morning has become one of my regular spots. The pastries are always such a treat and the baristas are attentive and thoughtful. They greet me by name and it is a great way to start my day. At top of all of that the green door and host stand are fun and the space is stunning overall. The black and white movies on the wall are such a nice way to add the atmosphere of the restaurant plus it's always a good movie. So so glad to see this place flourishing!! read more

I wanted to make sure I recognize & call out when things are remedied. My wife & I had a prior visit that was not the typical Bar Revere experience. There was an immediate response from management to rectify. We returned & dined this weekend & it was the usual EXCELLENT experience we are accustomed to. Thanks for the service & food. Very enjoyable. Barry & Sandy! read more

Since opening, the Bar had fantastic pastries. We have been regular customers with large orders and recommended the Bar for its pastries. This week, the quality of the pastries changed, they are below average. After questioning what happened, we hear that pastries are now outsourced. Well- you lost this customer. read more

Very cute French restaurant. Wonderful bakery, great ambience and wonderful service. I need to come for dinner because they have a great wine selection and bar.

Horrendous service. Came here with my wife, baby, and sister and waited at the front for a long time. No one was trying to seat us at all. This is a small place and the bar was occupied with other customers but the place was not busy. The nose ringed bar tender with the ponytail seemed to be purposefully ignoring us. It was one of the strangest experiences and most disrespectful experiences. read more

Nice looking place, and the food was very solid, but our waitress had an attitude. It really felt like we were imposing on Chelsea. Sullen and disinterested is the best description. It was a slow Monday and I am not sure what else she had to do, but she sure didn't want to be waiting on us. read more

This is a wonderful little gem in Greenville, DE. It is a French pastry cafe in the morning and a restaurant/wine bar in the evening. We stopped by for breakfast. The cappuccino was good, but the pastry is the star of this show. We tried a number of the different pastries. The croissant, ham and cheese croissant and pain au chocolat were phenomenal: light, flaky, buttery goodness. Actually every pastry we tried was amazing. We haven't been for dinner next, but will soon. The ambiance is lovely. Definitely check this place out. read more

I was there yesterday with my fiance and her parents and the experience was average. When we ordered drinks it took easily 10 minutes to come out and they werent overly complicated drinks to make which 2 of them were beers and the one was a beer with a can that the father was expected to pour for himself. When we were given bread waiting for our drinks the bread was burnt so it was hard to eat. The food was tasty so that was good for the entree portion. We stayed for dessert but probably not a good choice. I ordered cheesecake but was given lemon posset cake. Even made sure to state that when myself and the father ordered them. My fiance ordered tiramisu and said it was overkill with the baileys. Thankfully they took the lemon cake off when we told the waitress what happened. It wasnt busy though last night so this shouldnt have happened. read more

We had a delightful birthday dinner for my husband last night. We split the bougie deviled eggs and sweet corn soup for starters--mouth watering. The soup was so unique and summery. My husband had the NY strip and I had the scallops--both were prepared beautifully. We ended the meal with the lemon posset, which was very light and refreshing. To top it off, they had Jax Vineyards cab--we love Jax, but rarely find it on restaurant menus. What a surprise! Despite being very busy with a full house, the service and food was on point and quickly delivered. We had a fantastic experience with our server. Thanks for a great birthday celebration, Reverie! read more

The food was excellent and the wine was amazing! I went with girlfriends and we had a fantastic time. The ambiance is super chic and fun. Our waiter was so nice and knowledgeable and we even got small tables for our purses (love that touch). We all shared some apps and had wonderful entrees - the chicken was a crowd favorite. We also got several different bottles of wine and the wine menu is very extensive, so we'll definitely be going back for more! We'll be making it a regular spot! read more

One of the worst service experiences ever! We went and had a late lunch at Bar Reverie, Greenville DE and were extremely disappointed in the service we received. We sat at the bar which is our normal spot when we dine out. With four other patrons at the bar, It took us at least fifteen minutes before we were addressed. We ask for our drinks and received them after he attended a woman who was complaining about the quality of her drink & food. Apparently it was a change of shift so we cashed out with the bartender that had brought us our drinks with a sizable tip ($20 bill on a $12.50 tab). Then waited a additional 20 minutes, before we had to flag down the new bartender to request our food. The food came promptly from the kitchen, but we had yet to receive silverware. After flagging down the new bartender and requesting silverware we ask for another beer. We never received the second beer. We called out to the original bartender to request our food bill and complained about the service we received from the second bartender. He said the guy was his best man and was a great guy. The 1st bartender wasn't great but the second bartender really sucked, he left the bar to chat up some woman at the door and ignored all the other customers. read more

I made reservations for a party of 6 and we were seated at a table outside. Hostess was pleasant and sat us right away. The bar area inside looked festive, dimly lit for an intimate ambiance. I prefer the lighting outside and was glad to see the heating lamps. They were great until we were burning up. Rather than putting them on a lower setting they were turned off/on and the temperature was never quite comfortable through out our 2 hour dinner. Two members of our group ordered the Del Monico steak, one person was pleased while the other didn't like the texture or how it was cooked. Hard to say who gave the most accurate judgement. The two who ordered the filet were pleased with the temp and taste. The fish was ever so slightly overcooked but the sauce made up for it. By the time we were ready for dessert the waiter told us he would bring the menu over but they sold out of everything except for the donuts. It was only 9:30pm at this point so a heads up from the waiter about possibly putting in a dessert order before they had nothing left would have been nice. The restaurant cleared out pretty quickly, I assume most of their dinner reservations sat around the same time. Overall dinner was alright, I heard the brunch at this place was better. Maybe we'll try that next time. read more

A lot of wealthy people must live in Delaware now because a lot of very expensive restaurants have opened, and they seem to be doing quite well. Bar Reverie is one of them. The owner of one of our favorite restaurants, BBC, decided to go fancy and opened this restaurant. Since somebody was taking us out and treating us for our birthdays, we decided to try it here. The restaurant itself is beautiful. We were seated outside which I wasn't too happy about, but whatever. We shared the cauliflower appetizer which was delicious. Cauliflower can be tricky but they did a beautiful job. My husband ordered the hamburger which he loved and his father ordered the steak which he really enjoyed. I ordered the crab cakes and was very disappointed. There was a lot of filler, the mashed potatoes tasted like they were boxed, and the carrots tasted canned. I've been ordering the crab cake for years at BBC and it's always been delicious and substantial, so this was very surprising to me, especially since it was twice the price. My husband gave our server the feedback and he knocked the cost off our bill. Overall service was very good here as well. They have an extensive and very expensive wine list. Again it was nice we were being treated. Overall a nice experience. And they don't charge reservation deposits and obnoxious fees like some of these other pricy restaurants around here that we will avoid. We will add this restaurant to our special occasion list. For me to give this restaurant 4 or 5 stars these have to happen: improve the crab cake dish, lower your prices to be DE-centric, not NYC, and put some wine on your list in the $30-35 price point. read more

Took two hours to have food served after order taken. Nice atmosphere. Drinks were good but I don't like waiting that long for food.

Vibes are great, food is beautifully presented, a-la-carte menu style is fun for sharing plates. The restaurant is new so still ironing out some kinks, but worth the visit! read more

Excellent meal and very good service! The beet salad has a wonderful parsnip cream sauce in the middle which was surprisingly sweet. We had the lamb lollipops which were cooked perfect and came in a nice chimichurri sauce that was not too garlicky. The scallops were delicious as was the halibut with root vegetables and an outstanding, flavorful charcuterie sauce. The secret was the pork belly cubes (bacon) which was so savory with the light halibut. For dessert we had the ricotta donuts And the chocolate mouse bomb - both outstanding! I'm definitely going back! read more

Was pretty disappointed that the server threw our leftovers in a box upside down and all over the place. Two peoples meals were boxed together without being asked. We do not live together or eat each others food. I have food allergies so I had to toss it. All three to go boxes were like this. Eggs Benedict is not good upside down and smashed into a pile of potatoes. The food was great, I'll box myself next time. read more

Visited for the first time on Friday, November 17th with two friends. Ordered the scallops. For the most part, they were good. I also had the cheese cake which was more dense than I prefer but good flavor. But the two greatest disappointments were our waiter (Bruno) who was less than attentive and the tepid coffee he brought me with my dessert. He seldom came to check on us but was quick with the bill. Thankfully, another person (perhaps the manager??) asked how things were going and when I told him about the coffee he immediately apologized, took it back, asked if I wanted regular or decaf (which Bruno failed to do), and returned with a steaming cup of coffee. He explained that they did not have decaf coffee per se but they simply made decaf expresso and added more water. Voilà--HOT coffee. The restaurant was a little noisy--maybe because it was full; however, overall, a good experience and I will likely return--just not on a busy evening. read more
