LOBSTER MAC & CHEESE!  Delicious!
Alexander R.

After a very long drive up to Delaware yesterday we stopped in for dinner at the Northeast Seafood Kitchen. The place was packed and we would have had to wait about 30 minutes so we decided to eat outside. They had a covered patio with umbrellas on the side tables. It had stopped raining so we took a seat under the umbrellas. Once seated we enjoyed some delicious steamed clams with some lemon butter sauce that was outstanding. Unfortunately it started raining and we were still eating, we braved the weather and got soaked! But we enjoyed every minute of it anyway. The food was really good and the service was excellent, as the staff braved the weather to come out and serve us anyway. They had to walk through the rain to bring us our food, and they did it with a smile. Unfortunately the rain came down so hard the patio started to flood, we didn't care it was so warm out we stayed anyway. Lol! We had a blast!

Very nice patio seating and quality service. Smash burger and appetizers were the best thing on the menu. Seafood was slightly overpriced for the quality of the meal.

Lobster Roll
Jamie F.

I'll start off by saying this is a beautiful restaurant inside, but for the price we paid for our lobster roll (very sad) burnt bun & hardly any lobster plus bland. Our friends got the chicken dish, wish looked more appetizing but odd being it's a seafood restaurant. We also got the crab dip which why it's served with chips, I've always had dip with bread so I did ask our server for some and they kindly brought it out. It was mostly cream cheese and hardly any crab again disappointed since our friends hyped this place up for seafood. I wish I would of taken more pictures but I was overall disappointed especially when you pay $43 for a lobster roll and it comes burnt and lacking meat. I've had better lobster rolls and for half the price. I don't know that I'd try this place again if I was in the area.

Fish and chips to the right of our son and buttered pasta enjoyed by both kids. Plenty to share!

I initially thought we were at the wrong place since the restaurant is located in a shopping center. I was pleasantly surprised by the overall decor and the ambiance from the moment we walked in. The whole team - from hosts, servers, kitchen crew - genuinely warm, friendly and inviting. Our family enjoy having meals together. The kids can get loud and excited. We do our best at dining out during odd hours or eating further from the general guests to ensure we all have a pleasant meal. With that said, the team provided our family with such a great time! They were gracious in providing us with free app since our server was late in taking our order. TBH, we did not even notice since we were just enjoying the outdoor seating. The kids were having fun in the open space. We ate the crab dip too quickly to share photos and unfortunately, same excuse for the specials steak my husband ordered. I was able to snap a photo of the buttered pasta. I had the seared halibut which was served still hot and perfectly moist in the middle. Fish can be hard to cook and can sometimes be overcooked that the middle is dry, not this one. We are grateful for the experience. Highly recommend especially for families on vacation.

Delaware Red Crab Soup

Enjoyed a light dinner with fresh fish and cocktails. The meal came with bread and butter along with good service. We sat outside underneath an umbrella on a nice day.

Great, solid reliable seafood spot with rotating specials. Had the swordfish on my last trip which was excellent. Everyone happy with their food. Plenty of parking. Indoor and outdoor seating.

Fried Chicken
Tina M.

Get there ASAP! My family visited this restaurant during our Family Thanksgiving trip. We wanted a spot to grab a glass of wine and some light bites...OMG did we stumble upon a Gem. Everything and I mean everything was delish. The Mussels, the Fried Fish, the oysters, the Cornbread, the drinks! The bartender was the sweetest and completely awesome. I asked him to fix a drink using the local gin Blue Whale (becasue the bottle was so prettt) and he prepared the most delicious drink I ever had mixed with a rosemary infused syrup and basil cucumber. I told him to name it after me the Whale-Tina. Great experience, great restaurant

LOBSTER MAC & CHEESE fantastic!!!!

Very good! Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave some great recommendations. The lobster mac & cheese is one of the best ever.

Boston cream layer cake
Raj P.

We have been meaning to check this place out for a while and finally ended up getting there. Food was excellent. No complaints on service either. Had their crab dip as an app, not pictured because I forgot to get a pic before it was done. I got the butcher block which was a flank steak topped with chimichurri and my wife got the Black Sea bass fish board. For dessert I got the Boston cream pie and my wife had the oatmeal pie w/ice cream. Only complaint on dessert is that if the oatmeal pie if served with ice cream, the pie should have been served warm. For those of you wondering about cost, it was about $90 per person but we have 2 drinks each, 1 app, 2 entrees, and 2 desserts.

I will summarize my three most recent visits in March during the off season on Friday's at 4 PM. We arrived at 3:50 PM prior to their open at 4 PM. Already two people were online. We waited in my Audi waiting for other customers to arrive. Other vehicles arrived around 3:55 PM so we exited my Audi to get in line behind the other two customers. When they opened at 4 PM we secured our favorite table for 4 to the left of the entrance. We were happy that Mike from his former Catch 54 served our table. We first met Mike here at Bluecoast back in 2021. Also Kelly from her former Off The Hook also stopped by to say hello. We enjoyed our dozen Chunu Virginia oysters. I also enjoyed my usual tuna poke for $15 with white rice, carrots, pineapple and jalapeno peppers. I ended my meal with a pineapple martini for $8. We returned here for our second visit with our friends. Since there were five of us we sat in their second booth on the right. Again Mike stopped by to say hello. I started with my margarita with salted rim for $9. Kelly delivered our dozen of the Chunu Virginia oysters for $12 to also say hello. I also enjoyed my two pineapple martinis for $8 each. I also enjoyed my tuna and salmon poke for $16. We also shared a bottle of Trefethen chardonnay for $58 with the Friday 1/2 price wine reduced down to $29. My total bill was reduced down from $143 to $114. Lindsay S. served us very well as usual. We returned for our third visit on Friday. We sat at the table to the left of the entrance. Kelly and Mike stopped by to say hello. I started with my margarita for $8 and ended with my pineapple martini also for $8. Again, I enjoyed my dozen Chunu Virginia oysters and my poke. Alexis D. served us very well. Customer service and friendship are most important. We will continue to return here for the off season happy hour.

The restaurant was closed during the winter season. They reopened in mid April. We were here in April on a Friday around 3:50 PM, before a line of customers were lined up ready to enter at 4 PM. We scored our favorite 5 bar stools. I started with my two orange crushes for $9 each and ended with my draft Yuengling lager, since my favorite draft Guinness was no longer being offered. We also noticed some changes to their happy hour menu. The two chicken sliders are now available with one of two preparations including the original Old Bay honey or the newer Nashville hot. I enjoyed my two Nashville hot chicken sliders for $7, which were very moist and tender. They were great. I also enjoyed their happy hour homemade cream of crab soup for $8. We also ordered the Nevas potatoes to go for $5. My total bill was $61 excluding gratuity. We agreed we will continue to return here for happy hour.

You know they are both the same owner or at least the same franchise even though slightly different names and a slight different array of offerings. This location at the inside area of the same plaza has seating and more seafood. They use quality bread for their oyster po-boy and and use slightly different ingredients compared to the po-boy at DB-Fries. I forget what the ingredients were at both places- you can investigate yourself, lol. I just wanted good food and to stay out of the slight rain on this particular day. The fries are fresh and well done. Better than Thrashers imo and not a line. Looking back, I probably should've gotten the lobster roll here and the po-boy at Henlopen instead because at Henlopen, it's a combination of seafood instead. Nonetheless, the seafood here was fresh and if it's not a bad day and love seafood, you probably can't really make a wrong choice Staff here is friendly.

The coleslaw had what I believe to be horseradish or something in it that set it aside from all the other local ones. It was super tasty. The fries were decent but nothing special just all around good fries (maybe the need a special sauce for those to set them off). Service was short and to the point and not much of a vibe or ambiance for a snack shack style.
