From the moment we walked in and sat down for a cocktail, the ambiance and service was great! The food was very good but I wouldn’t say EXCELLENT. My husband lamb was a bit overcooked. But I loved about 90% of the food. It was worth the price we payed and our service was amazing. We also got a three course wine pairing and I felt like it was paired well.

We have been dining at One Coastal for many years, predating the arrival of James Beard Award Finalist Chef Matt Kern. We were so delighted that after One Coastal changed hands we were able to enjoy the same unrivaled, creative, fresh Delaware cuisine. Tonight our family ordered the duck and the rockfish. Both were expertly executed. The flavor profiles of both dishes were unusual, cohesive, and delightful. My husband and I both enjoyed our cocktails, a Duchess and a Ryanhatten. Don't miss out on an opportunity to experience this next-level experience. Make a reservation immediately.

Another wonderful meal at this restaurant. Their menu for Christmas Eve was challenging to select from, my husband having the seafood manicotti and I had housemate paperdella pasta with saffron sauce and crab.. Both dishes were delicious.. The restaurant was busy but service was efficient, attentive, and responsive. This restaurant is a treasure. The chef is obviously gifted. We look forward to returning soon.
