“When in for a meal after being at work all day. It was one of those looonnnggg days, staff was great. Manager greeted me as soon as I walked in. Sat at the bar had a few apps and my entire mood changed. Food was amazing. Never been to this spot before but I’ll certainly be returning.”
“The food was delicious. I like that the menu had a little of everything on it. Really a all around great place to eat 👍”
“Tomeka's is what a soul food restaurant should be and they do everything right. They have excellent food, excellent customer service, and an excellent atmosphere. The fish and chicken are cooked to order so be prepared to wait a couple of minutes for fresh food. Thank you for restoring my faith in restaurants. I wish all restaurants followed your model.”
“Crumbl is consistently impressive, offering cookies that are fresh, warm, and full of bold flavors. Every weekly menu rotation feels exciting, and I appreciate the creativity behind each new cookie. The store is always clean, the staff is friendly, and pickup is fast and easy through the app. Whether I’m craving something rich, fruity, or classic, Crumbl always has something that hits the spot. It’s become one of my favorite dessert places, and I always look forward to trying their newest creations and fun too.”

“10/10 recommend! I’m from Anaheim, CA, and this is the most authentic Mexican food I’ve had in Delaware. We had the quesabirria tacos and they are excellent! Definitely try this place, you won’t be disappointed! We did take out, but the service was great, the staff is friendly, and the restaurant is clean and inviting.”
“Shout out to Bubbakoos in New Paltz NY. I forget to hit submit on my online order so when I went in to pick up there was no order for me. When I saw my mistake they made my order right away. That was so awesome of them. I really appreciated the awesome customer service- especially when the error was all mine.”
“This is my absolute #1 comfort spot!! Shima is an absolute joy and does a wonderful job of running this business! When Nora is able to come in, she is wonderful as well. The food is always delicious and it's the only place where I never feel rushed or unwanted. I tell people it's like sitting in your grandma's kitchen.”
“Veronica’s is by far the best pizza in Kent County—and maybe even the entire state! In my opinion, nothing beats brick oven pizza, and Veronica’s does it right. They even have GF, vegan and vegetarian options! I’m always greeted with great energy, and you can feel the good vibes the moment you walk inside.”

“I love this new breakfast/brunch/lunch place. It feels like a higher end Panera in terms of the food. Everything seems freshly cooked and not frozen. This place is always packed, so download the app and sign up for the wait-list. I live about 40 minutes away, and I've been able to time it just right. This place makes Dover a better place.”

“I came here for lunch yesterday with my cousins yesterday. The food and desserts were delicious. The owner came to each table to say hi and see how our meal was. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. But what impressed me the most was as I was getting out of my car I fell and immediately one of the waiters came out to see if I was OK. We will definitely be coming back”
“This is a current review from today, by the way, so very very, very recent very clean establishment, and everyone is friendly 🇰🇷🧡 The food ; ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Yesterday our first visit included 9 family members here from Virginia and Philly to celebrate my husband's birthday. We couldn't have been more pleased. I made the reservation ahead of time and our table was set in a smaller dining room. The service was excellent, very friendly and efficient. Menu orders came out hot and accurate. Food was delicious. Everyone was pleased. What a great experience! Thank you!”
“Excellent meal and of course it's a little pricey but, it's an upscale place and it's not totally out of line. You get what you pay for and it was well worth it. I got a ribeye steak that's probably the best I've had in years. Everything was excellent...cocktails, appetizers, all top notch. Service was great as well, Elijah was our server. All to be expected from a top-notch place like this. We had a totally enjoyable experience!”
“This amazing family run restaurant has the BEST Chicken SOUP ever, if you like healthy, restorative food cooked with attention to fine quality ingredients and a clean kitchen. Now the chicken has bones and skin, which give it more depth and flavor. Menu is so diverse, I can't wait to go back because it's the best food I've had in years. Thanks and can't wait to enjoy another masterpiece made with love!”
“Now that I've spent a year in Dover, I now understand why this institution keeps bringing in good business.
The bartenders are some of the nicest people I've had the good fortune of meeting.
Their food selections are wonderful - their football Sunday specials were everything I wanted in a Sunday Sunday.
I havnt been there when its been insanely busy, but the servers, bartenders and kitchen work well together to ensure everything comes to you in a timely manner.
Honestly i enjoy coming here every time”
“Food is great!! Delivery not great. Ordered food (via Doordash) 2 consecutive nights. Both deliveries were missing 1 item from order. 😒 First order (Friday) included complimentary peice of cake 😁 & utensils/ condiments. Second order (Saturday) no utensils or condiments 😒 [no ketchup for fries 😔] Overall good though. Recommended 👍”

“Great service. Very quick. They are always very nice to me. Sometimes however the sweet tea isn’t very sweet. Seems to be missing the liquid cane sugar or they just put in the regular sugar instead (which does not dissolve well in a cold drink) so they really just need to remember the liquid cane sugar. Food seems to taste great. Only issue is the chocolate frosted donuts always seem to be melted into the wrapper when I get them.”
“This is the best sushi restaurant in Delaware. Dining in is an awesome experience, and take out is super easy.”
“Great atmosphere with a friendly and attentive staff. The food was very good as well. The grilled zucchini was amazing!”

“BLUF: Do not come here if you're looking for a place to relax and enjoy a beverage by yourself, harasses customer and acts extremely unprofessional. I hate having to put one star on service because the wait staff/bartenders are awesome. However last night I dealt with the most unprofessional and disturbing interaction with a "business owner". A patron at the bar was harassed by one co-owner, who was very clearly drinking too much. The individual told a group of girls no, when they asked him to take a picture of them. He politely refused. The co-owner who wasnt directly involved decided that she couldn't let that stand. She confronted the individual and told him she thought he was a bad person and an Ahole, conversation lasted about 10 minutes of her accosting him. Completely out of line. However it doesn't stop there. Her being obviously inebriated and mad because they guy didnt roll over while still being polite, she goes home to tell her husband who is also apparently a co-owner. Instead of being an example of what a professional business owner looks like he then comes to the bar and gets extremely aggressive with the individual, immediately says "do we have a problem here?". The gentleman tries to explain but macho man randy isn't there to discuss his out of control wife and apologize on her behalf and behalf of the business. He is only there to try and intimidate a patron for trying to mind his own business. The absolute worst ive ever seen ANYONE that owned or even worked at a business act. Hope they do better in the future.”
“Do me a favor Sam's Club I noticed on everyone that had something negative to say they got the same response which I'm sure is just being generated. Used to be you had to be a member of Sam's Club to walk through the door. Now your Pharmacy your restaurant anybody can walk in. You have homeless people coming in stealing and then you have them following your customers your members who pay to come there out to their cars and asking for stuff and money. You need to fix this and go back to you have to be a member to walk through the door. It would fix your stealing problem and would make your customers feel safer. It's happened multiple times and I've watched that they only come up to women. maybe it's time you get a golf cart and you have somebody that patrols your parking lot but single women shopping who are actual members should not have to keep dealing with this and being stalked by the homeless that are all the way around your building camped out.”
“awesome setup with tables and umbrellas (lights for night time eats and events). pretty cool patch of grass with a permanent stage. 2 mainstay trucks with delicious food and space for other trucks to jump in and out.”

“Mission Nutrition has been very supportive in my personal health and weight loss journey! They are passionate about Herbalife and providing wellness opportunities. The owners and coaches are some of the friendliest, kindest, most caring people you will ever meet. They are very family, community, small business, and military oriented. They offer a very welcoming and nonjudgemental atmosphere. They make delicious healthy meal replacement shakes and flavorful herbal teas, the best around!There is always something for everyone and a new product to try, a themed tea, a seasonal shake flavor, meal bars, protein pops, and healthy options for kids! I visit Mission Nutrition several times a week, its by far my favorite nutrition club!”

“We ordered for the first time today. I am so impressed. All of the food was hot and delicious. This will defiantly be our new go to spot for take out! As a busy family with little kids we enjoy pizza and movie night. It did not disappoint!!!!!! My picky 6 year old even had seconds! 👏 The cheese and pepperoni pizza were both top notch compared to other delivery options. The Maryland crab pizza was something I never imagined trying but I am glad I did. The only thing that could make this a little better was a tad more sauce. The loaded fries were cheesy and yummy and the hot wings arrived steaming hot. Very fair prices too! As I said in the beginning, impressed! And happy to say we will order again! If you haven’t tried them, don’t delay! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Great location. Spouse had the Ruben and loved it. My crab soup didn't have much crab. The fish sandwich was ok. Served with a tomato slice that had the stem in it. Needs work.”

“Clean Eatz Dover did an awesome job with our catering! The chicken and shrimp wraps were so good—fresh, flavorful, and gone fast. And the buffalo bacon cheese was a total favorite. Everything was easy, tasty, and a big hit all around. Would definitely order from them again!”
“Picked up lunch today from paras after searching for something different. I grabbed a combination gyro with their masala fries, and grabbed a chicken over rice bowl for my girls. Not only was my food amazing but my very picky girls could not stop saying how good their food was. Glad I checked them out and will definitely go again!”
“I wanted to visit a familiar place. Now under new ownership.
Did not realize there was a step going out Anna almost fell dropped my bag. Gentleman that was taking trash out had his hands full and it was raining.
Don’t remember the tall checkout either.
Eggs $3.00 a dozen”
“We like local places. The Countrie Eatery is a cut above places like Bob Evan’s and IHOP but it’s not epic. Our breakfast was generally well made. The eggs were cooked properly and the home fries were excellent. Unfortunately, my wife chose the blueberry muffin as a bread and it was rock hard on the bottom. On the positive side, there are options coffee and service were excellent. We saw a blueberry waffle on our way out that I would order next. It’s a good breakfast in a nice location.”
“Loved this place. I was working in Maryland and needed to cross Delaware off my list of states to visit. I went to another local bar first and it was boring. The locals then recommended I come here. They food was good and the locals were all very welcoming. I was more than 1,000 miles from home in Missouri and the patrons here made me feel right at home. I hope the little beer shots idea I gave them stuck! They locals loved them”
“My wife and I have ordered a variety of meals for delivery. it always arrives hot. The food is consistently very good. Although the delivery guy doesn't speak english, he is always polite and friendly I have nothing but good things to say about Roman's Family Restaurant. We have finally found a restaurant that delivers that is worth ordering from.”

“Had an early dinner there on 3/1/23 ..server, Roland was great..accommodating…food well prepared. Will go back again !”
“I went for lunch and it was not crowded. Only 4 other tables with customers. The atmosphere is casual with an ocean life/nautical theme. I ordered the fish tacos. There were three of them with assorted sauces. The tacos are made with a fried, battered fish that tasted good.”

“We went to Longhorn for the first time last weekend. The service was great, the restaurant was nicely decorated, booths were nice and private. The standout was definitely the food. I’m no steak connoisseur but the steak I had was the most tender and flavorful that I’ve ever had. The broccoli perfectly done and baked potato was actually baked not microwaved. Don’t let the outside of the restaurant fool you because it’s huge inside. The only bad thing was the very intense noise. It sounded like the restaurant was packed with a party but it was about 1/3 full. Maybe it was just the rambunctious groups but I couldn’t hear my companion talking and he was just across the table AND we were in a 4 foot tall booth.”
“Long story short.. Our Door Dasher stole our food. I called and spoke with the manager Jayla. She made the food fresh and personally delivered it to us!! I've orderd a few times but she made us a devoted customer. She took the time to listen and help with our issue. I love that she personally delivered it, she didn;'t have to do all that BUT we appreciated it very much. She was so kind and genuine. Thank you, Jayla!!”
“I have never been a big fan of Applebees but it's definitely an okay spot for casual dining. I think it's the atmosphere that is not appealing to me but picking the right time to go is key.
I wanted to try their new Bayou Cajun Shrimp bowl and I was pleasantly surprised! They hit the mark with this dish. The only small complaint I have is with the andouille sausages. The pieces were so small, I almost forgot it was included with the dish but what made up for it was the nice helping of shrimp. They do not skimp on this. The string beans were nice and tender and the rice was very good. The side of dipping sauce really complimented the shrimp. I was told this was a limited entree so it will not be permanently on the menu however I hope they get enough positive feedback, that it will return again this year. Great dish! 👍🏾👍🏾”
“10/10 recommend! I’m from Anaheim, CA, and this is the most authentic Mexican food I’ve had in Delaware. We had the quesabirria tacos and they are excellent! Definitely try this place, you won’t be disappointed! We did take out, but the service was great, the staff is friendly, and the restaurant is clean and inviting.”
“Just wanted to share that my sister and I went here today and there was only one waitress working, Ezra. That girl was busy as Hell and still waited on everyone with a smile!!! Great job!!! I also want to note that her 2 fellow employees jumped in to help with taking drink orders and cleaning tables. Kudos!!!!!”
“Every time I frequent disestablishment my order is always correct and I receive it in a timely manner. The restaurant seems up the standard where cleanliness is concerned. I also appreciate the value deals they have especially when you take into consideration how expensive just about every other fast food restaurant has gotten.”
“Veronica’s is by far the best pizza in Kent County—and maybe even the entire state! In my opinion, nothing beats brick oven pizza, and Veronica’s does it right. They even have GF, vegan and vegetarian options! I’m always greeted with great energy, and you can feel the good vibes the moment you walk inside.”

“This Fairly New food spot is very Nice and Clean. People are polite and friendly. They have Freshly Made Daily hot food(bake chicken, curry chicken, jerk chicken,Shrimp Rice,steam vegetables & salad )ready to go hot food. Also very diverse Menu, you can order something to your taste.”
“I wish we would have tried Joe’s a lot sooner! Our first visit was amazing and have been thinking about their food since. We ordered there again and food was just as good as the first time. This is probably one of my favorite chicken places and combos are really filling!”
