Rowdy table of 6+ customers ruined the lunch. We’ve been to this restaurant several times and perhaps because we were the last customer of the afternoon, not much attention was given to the food products we ordered. The lamb dip lacked flavor as did the fried fish sandwich. However, the tuna appetizer was good

Love the Blue Hen. We had lobster toast (best ever!) and deviled eggs to start. Wedge salad was fine. Lamp chops, steak and scallops all delicious. Mac and cheese was flavorless but everything else was fantastic.

The food was amazing and I think about the Passionfruit Cheesecake everyday. Heather helped us choose some amazing wines to accompany our dinners and the desserts. However, we worry about getting a reservation in the future, so truth be told, it's horrible, don't bother, go elsewhere!

Our table was touching the waiters cutlery stand and very close to the next table. The noise level of the diners was loud....Maybe due to ceiling height? Not sure. The worst part of our experience was the loud music in the dining area along with the noise of the crowd. It made for a less that great nice dining experience. The best part was the food, which was very good. We would not return, since there are many other great dining choices in Rehoboth.

First impressions are everything, and they understand that. Presentation was incredible, charcuterie board excellent, and the duck, awesome. My wife got the fried chicken, absolutely amazing. Very unexpected, but a true delight.

We wanted to love it - as we had fallen in love with the Blue Hen eating small plates in their courtyard last fall. But unfortunately the cooking was a bit off. The grilled carrots were still crunchy, the haloumi cheese was not melted; the crostini on the smorgasbord platter tasted burnt. But the grilled oysters were delish, as was the banana pudding for dessert. And our waiter was terrific. Lovely place, interesting menu. We’ll hope for a better grill cook next time around.

Food was great. Seated right away and attentive wait staff. My husband did have problem with his drink order and waiting longer than he should have. When it came it wasn't what he ordered so again he waited. Besides that food was superb, staff was friendly and attentive. It was noisy but the place was packed. Will you again for sure.

We had a wonderful dinner last night and will definitely be going back for their gourmet pizzas next week!!! Our server was most attentive, friendly, and he remembered us from a couple of months ago, which is always nice. We love The Blue Hen -- thanks for a great dining experience!

Delicious all around. We had all manner of food: great Caesar and chopped salads; delicious striped Bass and orecchiette dish; outstanding NY strip steak. Respectful and observant service. Delicious cocktails as well. Great ambience.
