What a gem! Absolutely amazing food in a beautiful atmosphere. The shrimp appetizer was excellent. As was the salmon dinner and shrimp dinner. Sitting at the chief’s table was definitely a fun experience. Definitely a very well run place with excellent food and great staff

Wonderful food. It's awesome to have a high end restaurant in town. Totally worth the price. Lobster and ribeye done perfect! Calamari was on point too!

I drive cross country, so I am on the road for the majority of the year. I came into Delaware and ended up having a day lay over. I found this Gem of a restaurant. Sitting at the bar area is the way to go; (trust me), you can watch everything being made. From the host/hostess to the cooks to the servers, this was one of the best experiences I've had in a restaurant in a very long time. I started off with a half dozen oysters on the half shell, and they were amazing, fresh, and full of flavor. The head chef (Chef Zeus) offered me a sample of his BBQ shrimp, and it too was amazing, just a little sweet and a little heat but full of flavor, and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. I spent the next 15 minutes trying to decide what to order. I decided on the grilled Salmon and I have to say hands down this was the best Salmon dish I have ever had and I've had hundreds, everything on the dish complemented each other and the flavor was to die for. They have a fabulous menu with the perfect amount of choices and options for any budget; you can come in and eat for 20-30 per person, or as much as 100 per person. All in all, this was a truly great experience, and any time I'm in Deleware, I will 100% come in and try more of their fabulous options.

I’ve been here about six times since they’ve opened. The decor is awesome and you will not find a more beautiful or cleaner restaurant around. The staff are friendly; however, at the prices they charge the expectation is much higher. My expectations are different at a diner or chain when paying $40 for two people to eat. When spending this kind of money you expect to dine…not just eat.
When spending $200 for a meal for two people, you expect fine dinning and stellar service. I understand the pandemic has hit the service industry hard and I’m sympathetic to that. The service, since opening pre-pandemic, just isn’t there. A good server should be attentive if nothing else.
The food is good and the portions are large, but I don’t think the entrees are worth the price. The lunch menu and lunch specials are reasonably priced and delicious. The cheese tray on the dinner menu was amazing and well worth the money! I will likely return for lunch and apps to-go but I don’t think I’ll be back for dinner or dinning in.
