- AAmandaDetroit / Eastern Michigan •1 review5.0Dined 5 days agoWe had the best experience Saturday night. The food, the service, and the ambiance was top notch. John, our waiter and bartender was personable and well-versed in craft cocktails. There were four of us in our party, and we tried 9 of the menu items shared tapas style. All were delicious with some unique flavor twists on the more typical items. We especially enjoyed the Brussels sprouts, the carbonara, and the duck confit. Thanks for a memorable evening!More infoDram Yard at ARRIVEPrice: Expensive• American• Wilmington•4.8
