“Best bar in dewey beach with the best food money can buy, but I wanna add "can't take my eyes off you" by Frankie Valli and the four seasons to the playlist so I can pretend I'm in The Deer Hunter (1978) starring Robert de Niro and Christopher Walken“

“Yes Yes and Yes!!! I love this place. Since my hotel skimped on breakfast we decided to head to Sunrise for breakfast. We have passed by many times saying we have to stop. I love breakfast we stopped in and ordered. The food came out quickly and was perfect. From the eggs and sausage and the homefries. ? Toast one of the best I've had. Thank you for a great meal!!! We will be back!“

“A cool place. Basic bar fare. Crowded and noisy, but that's to be expected. I was here in November, I can't imagine the crowd in the summer.I'm always impressed when the servers do a great job under stressful conditions, and they did a great job. I ordered a simple burger and fries. Fries were decent. Burger was great! Cooked perfect and delicious.“

“Super busy, noisy restaurant-bar. Was a little cold on their enclosed patio, till the finally closed the flaps. Service was amazing, as out server May had tables in 2 locations. She always had a smile and quick to get us what we needed.As far as food they shine when it comes to their Crab Cakes. Definitely get them. Sides were just okay, as well as salad. Soft shell crab was also just okay. Did I say CRAB CAKES? A definite yes.“

“Nalu Dewey Beach is one of our “must go to”places whenever we are in the area. The food is spectacular and so different than normal restaurant fare in the area. We love the pineapple wrapped bacon and the pork nachos are to die for. They have great entertainment and the place is hopping! Last but not least are the super bartenders, best in the area, especially Jimmy and Heather. Did I mention all the fantastic drinks they make, including the best espresso martini? Don’t miss Jimmy and Heather singing on occasion! Great vibes and a ton of fun!“

“I live out of town, and boy do I wish there was a Seedbol near me! My mom, son, and I ate there and all three of us loved it - even the picky 10 year old! The guys working were so kind and patient with us, since we’d never been and were having a hard time deciding. They give 5 star service for sure!I can’t wait to come back to the beach to come back to Seedbol!Dietary restrictions: As a plant based and gluten free eater, I was thrilled. My carnivore son raved about their chicken. There’s something for everyone!“

“First time at The Federal, and it was hands down the best dining experience I’ve had in the Delmarva area. The food, people, and overall ambiance was phenomenal and I will now recommend this restaurant as my go to when I have visitors.The truffled Mac and cheese was “light” and had tons of flavor, and the little crust of breadcrumbs on top elevate it further. The hanger steak was cooked to the perfect medium rare and had a balance of flavor that didn’t take away from the quality of the meat being the first thing I noticed when I ate each and every bite.Owners Ellen (and Todd) were active in the kitchen and the bar, and still made time to check in to make sure everything was great. Loved their story and how they came to bringing their fritters idea to life, which are genius and after trying a free sampling of the apple fritters, a perfect treat on a beach day!I look forward to when I can return and try even more of their delicious creations!“

“My mom won’t stop talking about this place. She’s obsessed and she might stop by Lewes again just to go here. For context, she lives in South Carolina and visited during a wedding weekend. Food and atmosphere are great. Service was also excellent. I was accidentally served the wrong drink and they immediately fixed it.“

“Did our weekly date night here on a Friday night. We did the Friday night special for $32/person. It was a 3 course seafood dinner. It was excellent and worth every penny. I had course 1 - A seafood chowder. Course 2 - Seared scallops in a very light mushroom sauce. Course 3 - Large stuffed shrimp with crab meat.“

“I would definitely definitely recommend this little food truck to anyone who loves a good smoothie bowl. This was probably the best açaí bowl I’ve ever had. The base is delicious and the fruit was really fresh and sweet. The staff was friendly and there’s plenty of free parking. And! It’s powered by the sun. Who doesn’t love that!“

“We made the discovery of this wonderful restaurant last night. It is a beautiful restaurant with many good seating options including the bar! The food, the libations, the service all wonderful. However, the hospitality that Ben and Diane have created is priceless! They are working owners leading by example! A truly wonderful experience! We will put the Shorebreak Lodge on top of our list every time we are in Rehoboth!“

“First time in and wonderful experience. While seating is limited, we were grateful to sit together and enjoyed a great evening and amazing food.Pizza of many varieties, salad, brisket sandwich all outstanding. Definitely on our neighbors night out rotation!“

“A tiny, tastefully appointed eatery tucked away in Lewes. We just stumbled across it for lunch while walking the downtown area. The panini were excellent and the coffee, surprisingly, was one of the best cups I've ever had. Really! I will come back again, if for no other reason than to get another cup of that superbly memorable coffee!“

“For lunch? Five stars. Usually this place is over rated but I got Disney cast member vibes. Everyone was in such a good mood. From the host. To the bar tender who gave us drinks while we waited for our table. To our server jusyin. everyone greeted us with a smile and warm interactions. Even the manager came over and said hello. Expresso martini was too notch, got me in the right mood to do some outlet shopping next. Bob voyage.“

“Awww yeah! Tried something new this am! Breakfast - Pablano pepper with eggs, cheeses and chorizo and her had the sage sausage gravy and biscuits. Loved the stuffed pepper and also had a chance to taste the sage sausage in the gravy. WOW! This is I'll be on our list of great breakfast joints in Rehoboth/Lewes area!!“

“This place, especially after the Henlopen bike loop, is a must whenever we visit from DC. We have debated where to buy a beach place based on its location (if we could afford one). Casual, great beers, awesome pizza and wings from food truck and of course friendly Lynn at the bar most days. Hope they never move.“

“I came here with my grandmother a while back, I got the chicken salad club and when I tell you I still dream about it!!! The lady who took my order was super sweet, the outdoor seating is very relaxing and quiet as well. I’m definitely going back the next time I come to rehobeth:))“

“Our bartender, Joe, made our night great. Never too far away, knowledgeable, easy going but quick to make really fabulous drinks. We ate at the bar and the scallops, steak and lobster dishes were fresh, creatively crafted and beautiful on the plate. So good. The evening was perfect -start to finish. Even ended up buying DFH’s gin to take home. A bartender can make or break a night out. Joe was a stand out.“

“We walked into Rigby's with our 13-U softball team from Arlington, VA on Friday karaoke night. They were kind enough to make space for us and Ricky took AMAZING care of us. Special thanks to the management who quickly accommodated our larger than expected crowd of girls and parents. Also want to give a special shout out to the regular Friday night karaoke customers who were kind and inclusive; we're pretty sure they've never had such a diverse clientele for a Friday night!“

“I saw the reviews on Yelp so my wife and chose to give it a tried. The restaurant is where Full Belly was in the past. The staff were very friendly and service was excellent. Our lunch of a Turkey Sub and BLT were very good. One miss was that it would have been nice to have a glass of wine or a beer.“

“Super cute idea. My pup loved being able to pick out his ice cream, topping and treats. Very affordable for the location as well. Gave the owner an idea to run contests with dogs or do a doggy Happy Hour to get some more clientle coming in. She was super sweet and accomodating, even giving a silver bowl which kept the ice cream cool for my dog since he was taking his good old time with his snack.“

“This is a homey feeling brewery. I went over the summer alone as I have been on a brewery kick and wanted to check it out. Much smaller than I expected but that didn't matter to me. I sat at the bar and tried one of their summer beers and it was tasty. The bartender who waited on me was a lovely lady who talked to me a little just asking where I was from and all. This place seems like a very chill place where you would meet new friends if you just started to chat with others. Very family feeling here. Highly recommend, great vibes and Great Beer!“

“We visited this location for lunch while on vacation. It was a pretty nice option. Not busy during the week day. It looks like they had a great selection of drinks on tap. We didn't partake, so can't speak to the quality. We had a crab soup that was very good, and was gone in a flash. The fried rice was really pretty good, and had good portion of shrimp. The Cuban was ok. The highlight was our family signing up to play the trivia game they had on the displays. It was fun, and made the experience all the better.“

“This place is absolutely wonderful! The atmosphere was great. Our draft beer selection (Big Hop Island) was outstanding. Our food entree (Naptime) was out-of-this-world. And our server was spectacular. We came here for the first time expecting something 'good'. What we experienced was way, way beyond that and then some. We'll definitely be a regular here from now on. Thank you for our new 'go to' spot. Keep wonderful going!“

“Great service - bright, comfortable setting - nice outdoor options too. Service is always very good - the food is great - plenty of choices for breakfast, coffee, specialty drinks & lunch - have returned many times & would recommend if in the Lewes area!“

“Went to the drag show for girls weekend and had a fabulous time. Thanks Bob for getting us a table as we were newbies. The waitstaff were amazing and attentive. Drinks and appetizers were both tasty. Will definitely hit this spot up again next girls trip. Just loved Mona and her Divas. ?“

“The Parrot is a uniquely Rehoboth spot that is a must visit. It has a main restaurant and bar, a side alley beer garden, and a hidden beach bar in the back. All fabulous!Food is not gourmet and a couple items are below average (avoid the chili) but on the whole it is solid and what you'd expect from a bar. The crab cake sandwich is top notch, the fried pickles are the best I ever had, and the Asian wings are perfect. Drinks are big and tasty, especially the spicy margarita. There is a lot to love here!Where they lose a star is service. Not for friendliness and capability, but speed. Too many times now it is just too slow, and that is not the servers or waitstaffs' fault. Recently we were seated nearly 15 minutes before we had to remind the hostess we were there, and she went to get the waitress. She was awesome, but drinks took another 10 min, food was close to 30, more, and that is all too long. It is not the workers at all, as they are all great, they just always seem shorthanded.Overall though it's a spot you have to see and experience, as it really is a ton of casual fun.“

“If you’re looking for a welcoming and enjoyable local evening out, this is the place.Great host, meals & service for our first time in. Highly recommend Flanders Cosmo, Aguachile & Fish tacos! The guys got the pub burger which was also perfect. It was the trifecta of a great Friday night.“

“We absolutely LOVE Arena's! We were sad when they moved from Route 24, but we are glad we found them! Since they are right next to our Primary Care Provider, we will be back soon! My husband and I both got the soup and 1/2 a sandwich. The Big Daddy for me and the Chicken Salad for my husband! Maryland crab soup hit the spot! See you in a few weeks!“

“Anniversary dinner. Very busy Saturday night. We love the steaks and meal was wonderful. Had interior table. Lots of foot traffic around table. If you go, ask for table against back wall or window. Waiter tried his best but was over extended. Overall an ok evening. Will go back on weekday evening and eat at bar or request one of the more quiet tables. The food was prepared to our liking. The rest of evening could have been better.“

“Food options weren’t great. There weren’t very many vegetarian or gluten free options (we had members of our group in each category). The food that was served was tasty. If you are coming for local beer more than food this is a great location.Vegetarian options: Very few“

“First time visit, will not be our last! Stopped by for some live music, dinner and beverages. Gina took great care of us all evening. Atmosphere inside was wonderful. Rainy evening, but the outside bar/tables look like a lot of fun. Shrimp and sausage gumbo was delicious!“

“This has become our favorite place to visit, when we come down in the off season! We walked in tonight, and Kelsey remembered us from 2 freaking months ago! That really blew us away. Her service is impeccable! We feel like we know her after just being there 2 times.She’s so honest with suggestions, and has great recommendations!Atmosphere is so perfect - great vibe!!Drinks and food are delicious!And bathrooms are clean. Clean bathrooms = clean kitchen you can trust.We be back RAH in the next off season!“

“Pretty great latte from a small unassuming coffee shop off the highway. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality, my friend found her macchiato slightly too sweet. However, she's never had a macchiato before and I thought it tasted great. Fast service and cute spot.“

“One of the best places to go when in Rehoboth. I typically go for drinks but occasionally grab a bite. After eating we always ask “Why don’t we eat here more often!!?!” Because it is really good food too!!! The staff is so friendly and they clearly work hard so you can have a great time.“

“We went for breakfast after tasting their gumbo dueing the gumbo crawl. My partner had a bacon omelet and I had a traditional breakfast. Both were excellent. The service is great. Sean at the bar is very attentive. I highly recommend the espresso martini shots!! Highly recommend!!“

“The food was good, great flavors that were well balanced. My only complaint is portion size. I ordered the chicken kebabs appetizer and only received 2 skewers with 3 small pieces of chicken on it. My main was the strawberry chipotle bbq ribs. The ribs were nice and very tender, great sauce. The richness of the Mac and cheese contrasted nicely with the acid of the braised greens. Again, my only complaint is portion size. I only got a 1/8-1/4 rack of ribs when I was expecting at least a 1/2 rack, the meat to side ratio was off in favor of the sides. Kind of disappointing that I was still hungry when I finished it“

“Love this place!!!! First time while at Rehobeth beach. Placed a pick up order and it only took 15 minutes. Definitely want to go back and sit down for a meal. They have a bar that opens at 9am, too! You must try the mad tots- so delicious. Loved their lattes as well.“

“Always a wonderful experience nice if you can sit by the water and enjoy the view. Food was delivered speedy to the table. Love the crabcake grilled cheese and soup. The Ruben was chunk corned beef instead of sliced corn beef and was delicious.“

“Ordered delivery which I have done several times in the past. I have always been delighted with the food. This time I got two of my favorites… wedge salad and buffalo wings. The salad was cold and crispy. The wings have crispy skin and the meat falls off the bone. Highly recommend!“

“Vegetarian perspectiveOne of my favorites at the beach. Love all the outdoor seating, and great vegetarian options. I'm not a big fan of fake meats but they have a homemade black bean burger here! Lot of fun summer cocktails too. Plus live music that wasn't so loud you can't talk.“

“Haven't had matzo ball soup in a long time so I stopped in today to try theirs since I've never been in there before. It was amazing! Staff was friendly, portion is large and, service was quick. Can't wait to try more menu items in the future!“

“This was a tasty experience. We tasted a variety of flavors and then helped ourselves to a delicious yogurt dessert. It was a little pricey but if you go on Thursday, it is priced by all you can get in the cup and not by weight. A good deal!“

“Absolute incredible vibe, great live music and super friendly staff, Met some really nice people, was given free pizza and very much enjoyed the live performance by Lower case blues. I didn’t get any of the food made in house but i can only imagine it’s as good as the other services.“

“We had lunch here today. The staff were friendly and helpful, they had outdoor dog friendly seating, and the menu had several vegetarian options. However the food was just okay in my opinion. Maybe they really shine with meat dishes but it felt a little underseasoned to me. I’d give it another try though!“

“I just wanted to eat a ceasar salad with grilled chicken. I can say that this is the best ceasar salad I've had. I believe they make their own dressing (which was delicious) and the grilled chicken was seasoned just right!! If you are just in the mood like I was for a delicious salad, this is the place!!“

“What an awesome place. Good food, amazing service and even better view of the water. Great place for kids with its own playground and so many things to watch while waiting for your food. A mix of different choices on the menu, a few bars, two stages for bands and plenty of room to walk and watch people. Update 9-16-23 A day trip to the beach we had to stop here again. Good food and love the atmosphere and service.“

“Menu was varied, plentiful and reasonably priced. Very Good service. We will return again with friends. Shrimp and Grits was different but very good with a side red slightly spicy terrazzo sausage with 6 large shrimp atop cheesy grits. Spouse had an Asian Dragon roll that was great ? ?Dietary restrictions: Our friend is diabetic there was plenty on menu she could choose Like the mussles in white sauce she ordered.“

“Where do I start... Greeted with a beautiful smile from Maggie upon entering the restaurant. Server was Valorie and is the best in the business. Very friendly and attentive, taking care of our needs. The food is excellent. Prepared by what seemed to be a Master Chef. It was so good we returned the next day to celebrate a birthday. They offer daily specials. I had their steamed shrimp one night and their crab cakes the next. Don't judge the restaurant by the outside appearance. The atmosphere inside is fun and worth a few photos. And best of all, they allow family pets (dogs) as well as service animals. There is an outside dining area for dogs and their humans.“
