                        We had a reservation for a party of 5. We were seated at a booth that would have been appropriate for four. The food was fair at best. There was a good selection at the buffet though. Had Thanksgiving there last year and it was by far better.

                        Buffet style brunch for Mothers Day. Normally an a la carte restaurant. Food was fresh, hot and tasty. Would certainly frequent more often if buffet brunch was a norm.

                        Overall a very nice spot. Some glitches with the order and the service, but spoke to the owner who was very apologetic. I chalked it up to the beginning of the season and some new help. The food was very good and very well prepared and presented. I would encourage you to try it when in town. I believe the issues with the ordering and the service were isolated, and I will certainly try it again myself.

                        The food offered was great. Very little information about gluten free / celiac friendly diet included. The restaurant was not busy, but the service was slow from the minute we walked in. It appeared that they were short-staffed.

                        Service was excellent we had someone in training with another server. We were very impressed with that! Food was just so so, Crab dip was delicious could have used more crab. Two of us had the Seafood risotto, It seemed to have a small spoonfull of crab, and you couldn't really taste it, but the shrimp were plentiful and delicious. My husband had the filet minion which was also just so so. It was cooked just right but didn't have a lot of flavor. Drinks were good but expensive. Maybe we will try it again for brunch.

                        My friends and I enjoyed a very lovely Easter Brunch. There was a large variety of food. It was impossible to taste it all. I could not choose a favorite. The shrimp and grits, the chipped beef, the French toast and breakfast sausage were all perfectly prepared. I also enjoyed the salads and desserts. I definitely would recommend Blackwall-Hitch to anyone. One of my friends had a smoked old fashion to drink. I don't usually drink but it smelled so delicious that I'm ordering one when we go again.

                        Visited here hoping to have a nice Easter brunch with family, was not aware that they were ONLY serving buffet style, which we are not a fan of. The selection was just okay, and the food was not good at all and was cold. The mimosas were the best part. Would not recommend the brunch here.

                        Easter Brunch buffet was a hit with the whole family! Wide variety of breakfast items, lunch entrees and chilled seafood. Mimosas were poured just perfectly and Ike, our server, was attentive and gracious. Only food peeve…the grits that morning were not appetizing, they were “sliceable” like polenta. The consistency was not creamy enough to enjoy with the delectable shrimp/sausage accompaniment.

                        A but pricey for a buffet. The selections were excellent and Bri our server was fantastic.

                        This was the best food we have eaten in so long, the quality and preparation of the food was masterful. Sean was an excellent server, we will surely return during out next visit.

                        Food and service were both excellent. It was a little too loud in there for my liking, but I’m sure others would find it energetic and be unbothered.

                        Went for Sunday brunch. The menu is varied and enticing- not just the standards. They were quite busy and it was initially loud but we didn’t mind. They had a jazz band playing intermittently that was quite good. We’ll definitely go back.

                        We went to Blackwall Hitch because they advertised a $50 dinner for two. We expected at minimum, a salad and entrée, but no. Basically, we could pick from most of the entrees (some priced at less than $25), so if you picked a $30 entrée, then yes, you saved $5. Admittedly, we could have asked ahead of time exactly what the $50 dinner included. But we felt taken. There are so many great specials during the week offered by Rehoboth restaurants. We'll go elsewhere from now on.
