    The food at One Coastal -- from appetizers to main courses to dessert is appropriately broad in its offerings and consistently delicious. The small, hard working staff does an amazing job under the direction of a James Beard-winning executive chef and owner. It is a little pricey, and well worth it.

    It was a good experience, and the greeting was warm and welcome. Courtney was an excellent server, and the food was good. I would come back again and recommend that others try it.

    One Coastal offers an amazing dining experience from the moment you walk in the door to when you leave. It is by far our favorite restaurant in all of Delaware and the MD beach area. Their farm-to-table seasonal menu is phenomenal, the service is always top-notch, and they have multiple menu options for those with dietary restrictions. Each time we visit we aim to invite new friends and introduce them to the One Coastal dining experience. Thank you!
