Our server , Eric, was super friendly and helpful with the menu. Food came out really fast. Stuffed mushrooms were the bomb. Not only was the ribs delicious but the meat fell off the bone. The crab grilled cheese sandwich was awesome. The shrimp chowder was okay. What turned this review from 4 to 5 was the bread pudding. To die for. Right amount of sweetness and topped with ice cream. The beer flight of local beers was fun.

So, don't come up in here going "well how long is it going to take?" They didn't forget about you. Service came out to apologize and to give updates. When the food came out it was HOT and exactly what I was expecting. And more importantly it was delicious. We will be back. So go try this place in what I believe is the old Carringtons music store but don't be a jerk.

I called my order in for the veggie breakfast burrito with egg whites, potatoes, mushrooms, spinach, etc. My order wasn't ready when I got there and it seemed they were short staffed so not sure if that's the norm.

We stopped here on our way from DC to Wilmington. The hotel itself has a super cool story and the…read morespace in which the restaurant is located feels really beautiful, grand and historic. It is spacious with lots of natural light (if you eat during the day). We ended up being one of two tables because we came at an odd time. There was only one person working front of house, Melissa, and it looked like she was bartender, hostess and server while we were there. Despite that she did a great job. She was gracious, attentive and even pulled out my chair for me. She knew about the building's history and seemed to take genuine pride. So if that is an indication of what the service is like all the time then A++. Food was decent, not mind-blowing. But I thought the quality was there. Ingredients were fresh. Prices were high end for the area but reasonable for the preparation and presentation. Food was well prepared. My only real complaint is my fried okra kept sliding out of its batter. See photos for more food info.

When we went, only the bar area was open, but there were tables in that section and we were able to sit comfortably as a family of four. Our waitress was really sweet and personable, which always makes a difference--especially when you're traveling with kids. The food was delicious. I ordered the smash burger, my husband had the salmon, and both were excellent. The kids ordered from the kids' menu--chicken tenders and a burger--and everything came with fries. We also ordered the sweet potato fries and those were a standout--definitely recommend them. Overall, it was a great stop during our trip with good food, friendly service, and a relaxed atmosphere. We really enjoyed our experience at Shirley's.

It's not far off I-95, located in a nice small town with several restaurants that looked very good for dinner. Parking is mostly street parking, and while it's a bit limited, we were able to find a spot. Buttery Bakery is a small place. When you walk in, there's a counter with pastries on display and an order counter to the left. There's also a small seating area. My wife ordered a biscuit with egg, bacon, and cheese, and I had a croissant with bacon, egg, and cheese. Both were excellent. The croissant was extremely flaky and flavorful, and the biscuit was just as good. We also picked up a chocolate croissant to eat later. It was very good, though it could have used a bit more chocolate. Overall, this is a great stop for breakfast, and we would definitely return when we're in the area again.
