    Chef Javier and company have rescued/revived the eclectic restaurant scene in Delmar. The oysters and the mignonette: always PERFECTION! The wedge salad with house made bleu cheese and pomegranates: I wanted to lick the plate! The lobster with house made pasta-ate every last delicious bite. Finally...the GOAT CHEESECAKE...sweet and bright, a beautiful presentation including a slice of honeycomb and a hint of sea salt w/pistachios. This dessert is rivaled only by their chocolate crème brûlée and orange blossom cake as one of my top 5 favorite desserts of all time. As always the staff complete the experience. From the moment you arrive until the time you leave, you are their most welcome guest. Thank you Coray Kitchen family!

    Coray Kitchen is consistently warm and inviting. It is enjoyable to dine in establishment where the level of food preparation, the knowledge and care of staff and the welcoming environment is …unparalleled. We started with well-made drinks from the bar and enjoyed a conversation with Casey - one of the owners. Then we shared a few small plates: the roasted oyster special, the octopus and, of course, the shrimp in the Cajun cream sauce. We savored them all! During the meal, Zan our upbeat, knowledgeable server, asked if we would like another beverage and then went on to suggest a white wine that paired excellently with our meal. From making a reservation to paying the bill, everything was delightful. Thank you!

    We recently had an unforgettable dining experience at Coray. The menu featured vibrant, seasonal flavors: very creative. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. From the perfectly grilled vegetables and seafood to the tender, farm-fresh meats, every aspect was expertly prepared and beautifully presented. If you’re looking for a dining experience that feels both nourishing and extraordinary, Coray is an absolute must-visit.

    The food at Coray is simply spectacular. It is elegantly presented and delicious, with just the right amount of spice and sauce for dishes requiring those elements. Wine pairing suggestions were also on the money, but but the prix fixe suggestion of 4 smaller pours with each course was a little over the top. Much better to just have a glass or two if you don't plan on a whole bottle for your party.

    I woke up this morning missing the experience of the night before. From my super tasty mocktail, the excellent and exciting flavor and feel of the champagne sorbet on my salty oysters, and every single bite that followed (beet salad with pickled onions, perfectly cooked, juicy surf and turf with crispy potato gratin) were marvelous. Finishing off the meal with chocolate crème brûlée...you can understand why I woke up wistful about the experience and eager to go go back for more soon!
