- LlisaNew York City •30 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoThe best Cowboy Cut Pork Chop I’ve ever had! The Brussels were a little too oily but mashed sweet potatoes were yummy! Overall, good food, good value, and good service.More infoColumbus InnPrice: Moderate• American• Wilmington•4.7
- CCynthiaPhiladelphia County •22 reviews4.0Dined on 15 Dec 2024This was basically a nice experience . It was basically empty when we got there but soon became extremely busy and loud so not as relaxing as we had hoped:) Don’t like that they automatically add 20 % tip to bill and then think you should give more??? For just 2 people!! Large group yes but 2? We are usually good tippers so if they had given us the chance the waitress probably would have gotten a bigger tip but adding right away as you bring the bill … NO Thank you!! Doubt we will return even though the cinnamon rolls were amazing !!More infoChelsea TavernPrice: Moderate• Gastro Pub• Wilmington•3.9
- DDonna JVIPPhiladelphia County •151 reviews5.0Dined on 13 Dec 2024The tasting menu was top notch. Loved every course it was truly a great experience. The crab cake and the duck were amazing as was the soup and the dessert duo. We will be back soon.More infoCiro Food And DrinkPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Wilmington•4.7
- SSCOTTVIPPhiladelphia County •33 reviews5.0Dined on 7 Nov 2024We started with the Small plates of Avocado and then the Salmon. The Avocado dish was divine...perfectly warm with tantalizing flavors beneath it. The salmon was really good but we weren't fans of the "crisp" that comes with it which is made from the skin...too fishy for our taste. That's a personal preference. I had the burger and my wife the Cacio e Pepe. Both were also excellent.More infoThe Garden at BardeaPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Wilmington•4.8
- JJamiesonVIPOrlando / Central Florida East •28 reviews4.0Dined on 8 Oct 2024This restaurant in the Westin Hotel was a surprise. The food is very good as was the service. The ambiance is lack luster and doesn’t fit the level of the cuisine. We will definitely be back when we are at an event at the river walk.More infoRiver Rock Kitchen-Westin WilmingtonPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Wilmington•4
