Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Avondale

I’ve been going to this restaurant since the late 90s off and on and it’s always been a wonderful experience and tonight proved the same and I am so thrilled that they still exist and that they are a true staple anytime I stay at Montchanin. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had an amazing time for our first experience at The Back Burner. Diana was quick to ask if it was our first time & once we said it was she talked us around the menu. Telling us that they sell crazy amounts of the “better cheddar”, you get a great amount of flatbread which has a homemade pita chip vibe. We had the crab bisque which was so good my fiancé almost forgot to share any with me! We split the wedge salad, which was so refreshing. He got the short rib and I got the salmon Wellington. We had to get all that bagged up so we could try out some dessert. We got the raspberry crème brûlée, it was so tasty.

The Mendenhall Inn did a great job of making a Valentine's Day dinner very enjoyable. We were seated at the time of our reservation, our waitress was very attentive. Our wine and bread and butter arrived quickly, followed by our first course ( French Onion soup of broth of us) within 10 minutes. Even though the restaurant had a slightly limited holiday menu, there were plenty of good choices. We had roasted duckling and the crab stuffed shrimp. both were served with mashed potatoes and French green beans. Everything was delicious and served at a very good pace. We were surprised at how efficient the service was consider the at full capacity dining room on a holiday evening. We skipped dessert because we were so full from the generous portions ( the outstanding French Onion soup with tons of cheese is very filling). It was a delightful evening in a welcoming, comfortable high end restaurant. top notch, its is worth the drive to get to Mendenhall ! A great place for special occasion or date night dining.

Absolutely the best pizza in Kennett!! Great drinks and the nicest owners!

A lovely experience tonight at this brand new restaurant. Delicious hot home made bread. Branzino w/ a mediterranean salad and a huge bowl on the side of creamy risotto. Great caesar salad with homemade dressing and a crunch of corn thrown in!
