    Wonderful place near beach! We loved crab here, very kind, helpful service! Awesome to be here.

    Lemon crush!
    Paula W.

    There is both inside and outside seating and an upstairs with a bar and outside dining area. Lots of fabulous drinks to try. I stuck with my crushes. They didn't disappoint. My friends ordered a dish with chicken and seafood. I went for the chicken salad! The chicken salad was fantastic with a wonderful flavor. The appetizer was delicious. Hush puppies shaped like devil horns, served with a slightly sweet butter! Our server was very attentive and friendly. It was a little cold sitting upstairs because part of the bar is open to outside. All in all a great dinner.

    Espresso Martini

    Very nice place to grab some food and drinks. Multi level with plenty of seating. Has both an upstairs bar and downstairs bar. Booths and high tops, as well as table seats available. Adorable decor and great atmosphere. There's a great sink area for easy washing after indulging in some crabs. All employees were friendly and attentive. We only came in for a late night drink. Ordered two delicious cocktails- espresso martini and a blueberry spritz. Both were tasty. Nice place to chill. I can imagine this place is packed during seasonal peak hours. There's no parking at all and parking in Dewey is always a challenge.

    Came here with a large group and derive was super friendly and quick! The food was all really fresh and the menu had a good variety of options. I had a few oysters and nachos. Our waitress did a great job and drinks were on point to!

    Cool vibes siting at the bar. Modern, reasonably priced but you can still feel like you're a few blocks from the beach. Plenty of tvs. All of the seafood was really fresh. Good service.

    The management and crew were very informative, helpful and friendly. Salad and rice was very tasty

    Food was absolutely fantastic. I got the scallops and they were killer. There are tons of people working so our waters were always full and the food came out fast. The restaurant gets a little busy during peak times and I don't think you can put in a reservation, so plan to wait for a bit. It's very beachy inside with lots of different seating options both inside and out.

    I was disappointed in my pasta which was recommended by the host. The seafood pasta had 3 shrimps, some other crab meat, and was water down. The bar tender was attentive. Overall the place is a vibe, but the food is overpriced.

    Ahi tuna
    Rodger S.

    We had a great meal here tonight. The place has an upscale feel & the food was very good. We started by sharing an order of ahi tuna. It was good & properly prepared. For my entree, I had snow crab legs & they were very good. For his entree, my husband had steamed jumbo shrimp that he peeled. I tried them & they were excellent. We also shared an order of corn on the cob they was delicious.

    Birra Tacos & Happy Hour Mozzarella Log
    Samantha C.

    If I could rate this any higher than 5 stars I would. This was a great experience! Our server was Lauren and she was amazing and so sweet! For drinks I had the watermelon crush and the Clawtini (their version of an espresso martini). The clawtini is on draft and it was deff a stronger martini but very good. The watermelon crush was refreshing and so good. Now for the food.. we split birra tacos and the happy hour mozzarella log ($7) for apps and both were amazing! The cheese pull of that log was one for the books. Then for dinner we each had a pound of snow crab legs ($40) and the Delaware corn dodgers, which were like corn nuggets or hush puppies. I'll say that snow crab legs are my favorite food and I've had them in many places. Starboard Claw was hands down the best crab legs I have ever had. They were pre-cracked, the meat was so juicy and lots of big pieces. I will think about these crab legs for many months to come. I know Delaware is known for the blue crabs, but don't sleep on the snow crab legs! The ONLY thing that I didn't love was the amount of flies everywhere but I know that's something they can't control.

We got it w/pepperoni, very good but small for 2 ppl. It's thin crust but still a chewy crust. My friend has the pappardelle bolognese-ground beef and pork, vegetables, parm, and milk for $22. Pasta was cooked to perfection, and meat was tasty. Would def go back for the pizza!

It was a 10 person table they did a makeshift on. My fault, I should've left then. Service was fine. Food was awful. 1) Worst bruschetta I ever had. Sour tomato vinegar disaster. 2) Meatballs were cold. 3) Salad was an embarrassment. Just lettuce. 4) Pepperoni pizza was brutally overcooked. Sent back. They couldn't guarantee that the next one wouldn't come out the same. 5) I actually wanted the Chicken Marsala but it was one of the many things they were out of at 5:30pm. I ended up sharing my wife's margherita pizza, which was no big shakes. 120 dollars later (even after they took off my pizza) we left hungry. Seriously...nothing was good. Plus...I'm not sure what was going on inside but it was brutally hot. All in all, I won't be back for a while. A long while.

    Honestly what a nice dinner we had, lets get into it…read more First I want to start with the ambiance. I walked in and was floored, the renovations are beautiful. The attention to detail was immaculate, beautiful wood paneling for the ceiling, a big brick accent wall and the colors are just right it gives intimate setting while not feeling cramped. The noise levels are just right, its a lively atmosphere while not being too loud. Let's talk service because I actually need to give a shout out to the manager Scotty who came in clutch. Service in general was great, our waiter was attentive, polite, but not hovering. He was helpful and even asked about special occasions, which there was for once. Now, Scotty, this guy was a rockstar. So, they overcooked my wife's beef wellington and had to fire a new one. Not only did he explain what happened and was honest with us, he brought her out a complementary shrimp cocktail for the mistake and its little things like this that make a customer happy. So big shout out! Finally I want to close on the food, not just because of course the food and drink is a high point in most meals but because everything else was great! My steak was perfectly cooked, the prime rib as always is flavorful, buttery, soft and the chimichuri adds a nice zest to cut the richness. The vegetables were delightful but the meat is the high point. We had the escargot for an appetizer and I've never had it before. I must say they've made me a fan. All in all a wonderful dinner, a wonderful experience. Thanks for the great dinner!

FOOD: I got the Miso Soy Glazed Sea Bass w/Sticky rice, broccolini & ponzu sauce for $38. It was delicious! Fish was done perfectly, rice was sticky and delicious, and broccolini was tasty. The other guests got the Porterhouse steak and it was awful. Not sure I would come back again.
