This time we were here with our friends in the colder February so we ate dinner on the heated rear porch. I started with my two Makers Mark Manhattans up for $14 each. I also enjoyed my cioppino with cavatappi, mussels, shrimp, clams, and marinara or fra diavolo sauce for $28. I opted for the spicier fra diavolo sauce, because I like spicier food. Sydney G. served us very well. My total bill excluding gratuity was $100 for both of us. After three visits I learned this restaurant is consistent. We will return here again during any season for lunch or dinner off season or on season.

Totally friendly guys serving excellent food right on route 1 on the forgotten mile. Each time I've eaten here I've gotten the pork sandwich platter which comes w 2 sides. I've had the cole slaw, baked beans, greens, and the carrots and peas. Everything was great but wow those beans I'm dreaming of eating again. You can't go wrong eating here so next time you are sitting in route 1 traffic you should stop right in and grab a platter!!!

But they have a parking lot attendant helping to move cars in and out. Be prepared to wait but for our group of 2, we got sat in 25 min. I don't understand how restaurants nowadays don't do reservations but this one doesn't. Got the Ipswich clam sandwich - incredible, and a must get! I did have to look up what makes these fried clams different than regular - and I guess these are fried whole instead of strips. Makes them very juicy and a great texture. It was $30 which I don't mind but it came with a bag of chips and a $2 upcharge for fries. For a $30 sandwich... I feel they can include the fries or at least a homemade side. I got the clams linguine which was tasty but not particularly hot. While our specific waiter was great, the restaurant had some service issues, food took extra long (our waiter apologized) and something I ordered almost never came (waiter had to ask for it again). Not horrible but just somethings to work on. Overall, we'd come again but I'm sure it's easier in the off season!

We first visited this location in November 2021 right after moving to the area. Based on my…read moreprevious reviews, you probably know that we frequently dine at Matt's in Fenwick Island, and we've also stopped by the Lewes location a couple of times. We love the Sodel and Matt's restaurants; they consistently deliver great experiences and fantastic happy hour oyster specials. For this visit, we dropped in for happy hour just after 3:00 PM on a Sunday and sat at the bar, which was wonderfully clean and welcoming. Although I skipped the cocktails this time, we shared 18 Virginia Chunu raw oysters for $18. I also had the New England clam chowder ($8), though I personally prefer the version at the Fenwick location, and a plate of six delicious lobster deviled eggs ($12). Our bartender, Hannah S., was exceptionally friendly and provided top-notch service. The total bill came out to $55 before tip. We both had a great time and agreed that we'll definitely be back for another happy hour.

Making my return to Delaware, I decided to give Northeast Seafood Kitchen a try after seeing its…read morehigh reviews. With that being said, I'm glad I did because the food was delicious. To describe, I ordered the lobster mac and cheese and it was scrumptious. First, the cheese sauce was creamy and cheesy, but not overpowering. Likewise, the lobster was tender and had good flavor. Also, the Ritz breadcrumb topping was great. It added a nice crunch and worked well with the cheese. On the contrary, my only problem with the mac and cheese was that there wasn't enough pasta in it. However, it was still one of the best lobster mac and cheeses I've had. Over the long run, Northeast Seafood Kitchen is a very good seafood restaurant.

We made reservations here a few weeks before our trip in May because my DIL said we had to eat…read morehere. The Chef looks familiar, I think I tasted his food before at one of the Celebrity Chefs Brunches for Meals on Wheels. I remember it being fantastic. There is outside dining but I booked inside as we weren't sure how warm it would be in May. It turned out to be a cold and windy weekend so we were very glad to be inside, plus the outside tables have a view of the highway. What a cute little restaurant inside; it is very tiny. We were crammed into a table in the corner. It was difficult to get past the other diners at their tables, and we could hear all the conversations around us. Every table was packed, I can't imagine what it's like in this room during the busy summer. Noelle was our server and she was amazing; very knowledgeable and friendly. She described the homemade bread service to us, and we ordered 2 Coastalpolitans which were made with Tito's Vodka, lime, soju, St. Germaine, and cranberry. They were sweet, and tart, and bright, and delicious. We decided on crab toast instead of the bread, and Noelle said we made the right choice. Wow, she was correct. The crab toast blew us away. It was chunks of crab on fluffy, crispy milk bread with pickled scallions, radish, lemon aioli, kelp powder, and lime. So beautiful and so delectable! RJ ordered the Pork Chop, which Noelle said One Coastal is known for, and I ordered the NJ Day Boat Scallops. We had no words. We sat there and quietly enjoyed every bite while listening to the surrounding tables, and knew we found a maybe not so hidden gem. My scallops were delicate and buttery and sweet, and melted in my mouth. RJ said his pork chop was tender and juicy, and the best he ever had. That is saying something. We finished with bread pudding because who doesn't love a good bread pudding, and we like to try it whenever we see one that looks interesting. It was salty and sweet and just so perfect. What One Coastal lacks in space and view, it makes up for with food and service. What a delightful place, and Noelle was a pleasure and a joy. We will definitely return to try all the other things and be lucky to sit anywhere inside or out.

Decor/service: cute place with a nice bar. It is small so the tables are pretty close together…read more Staff was friendly but the food service was on the slow side. We waited pretty long between our appetizers and entrees. They list gluten and dairy containing products on the menu. Food: the food was fresh and you could tell everything was made in house. The menu changes frequently and what we saw online was different when we got there. The salad was good but could have used a splash or 2 more of dressing. They had a bread appetizer special which tasted like an upscale Texas Roadhouse bread and butter. The duck breast entree had great flavor but it didn't fully mesh well together. Some bites were great while some lacked. The duck itself was good very well

I ordered an unusual wine from their list and James opened a new bottle just for me. That's great service! During our time there, we had many interactions with Tim (bar back), James (bartender) and Mike (server who has been there forever, so he says!) and they ALL were great!! The food was delicious! Generous portions, which arrived hot and beautifully presented. Definitely a 5 star experience in our opinion. Priced appropriately for the area ($120 for the 2 of us including drinks and food). Highly recommend!!

Ordered carryout over the phone. Ordered fish tacos with no pico. Picked up my phone and the tacos…read morewere covered in pico. I returned to the hostess stand to say my order was wrong. Was told that the tacos can't have pico removed, it was the side of pico that was removed. I expressed frustration at the time the order was placed that ordering without pico on the entree was not an option, as i fairly clearly don't like pico, and that would have been useful information to have so I can select another option. They offered to make something else, which, i guess that's literally the least they could do but by that point, my wife's order would be cold. No apology was offered, nor was any sort of discount/ cost offset, which was frustrating. Picked the pico off and ate the food, but the flavor had permeated the dish and it was ruined. Very disappointing experience

Angry mussels were good but could have used more chorizo to live fully to their name. I'd love to see this as an entree. Crabby spaghetti was full of lump and highly recommended. I'd suggest the chef use a soft shell crab on top instead of a hard one. She had the halibut and the boy had steak frites which was presented well and had some amazing rich gravy. They had minimal desert options, after a holiday week so we traveled to Matt's fish camp (same parent company) for a last round of drinks and amazing deserts.

We were here in March on a Sunday at 2 PM for happy hour at the bar with our friends. We were able to get 5 bar stools in a row. The bar area is relatively unchanged except for some new paint, however the two adjacent dining areas to the left and right of the bar were totally renovated and painted white with a much cleaner and brighter appearance. I enjoyed my usual 2 rum punches for $10 each and my usual happy hour broiled blackened flounder fish sandwich with tomato, red onion, lettuce, french fries, cole slaw and tartar sauce for $12. I opted for their hot sauce on my flounder and french fries. Bartender Andrea F. served us very well as usual. Consistency is a character of this restaurant. My total bill was $77 excluding gratuity. We agreed we will continue to return here for happy hour.
