    Salmon salad and papardelle were excellent. Tuna poke was good, but tuna pieces were a bit mushy. This was my third visit and the food and service are always very good.

    We went on a weekday night and this is obviously a favorite after-work stopping place. It's lively and pleasant and the food is quite good. We had the duck, risotto and grilled asparagus and enjoyed it.

    My son just graduated from the University of Delaware and I can’t believe it took us four years to find this restaurant. Everything was truly excellent and the service was great. I might drive there from Pittsburgh just to eat at Eclipse bistro again.
