Best Date Night Restaurants in Delaware

We had the most wonderful Galentine’s Day Dinner at 1808! From the moment we walked in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere set the perfect tone for a night of laughter, great conversation, and celebration. The service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, with our server ensuring that every detail of our experience was just right. The food was absolutely delicious—each dish thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. From the appetizers to the entrées, every bite was full of flavor, showcasing fresh, high-quality ingredients. And of course, no Galentine’s Day would be complete without wine, and 1808 did not disappoint! Their wine selection was excellent, perfectly complementing our meal and adding to the festive feel of the evening. We’re so lucky to have such an amazing restaurant in downtown Delaware—1808 truly makes every occasion feel special. Whether it’s a casual dinner or a celebration, it’s always a fantastic choice. Can’t wait to go back! 🍷✨

Leaving Butcher & Rose, Me wife and I felt a profound connection—not just to the exceptional food, but to the passion and creativity infused into every dish. It was an evening of indulgence, where each bite told a story, and every flavor was a testament to the restaurant’s commitment to excellence. We will Definitely be back. Thanks for the great service Seth!

Wonderful and personal experience at Lindeys! The food was absolutely fantastic and the staff was so friendly, especially to our kiddos. We got the calamari, ahi tuna, bread, and highlight for me was the burger. The kids meal portions were also very generous! Certainly a great place to celebrate a special occasion!

What a wonderful place! Beautiful and deliciously crafted food that’s fairly priced, calm ambiance with low lighting, and super thoughtful and kind staff. Definitely try this amazing restaurant!

Our waitress was amazing! She was very attentive, made great suggestions, & went above & beyond for our birthday celebration. We recommend the eggplant parmesan, margherita pizza, arancini, and the Berry Blast cocktail. The birthday girl got a free dessert & a spiked strawberry with a huge “sparkler” lit up to commemorate the evening. This was our first time here & we will be back!
