   It was my first dining experience at this restaurant. The food was very good. I thought it was a bit pricey.

   The food was exceptional. The taste and texture of the food hinted at the high level of care and attention of its preparation by the chef. Can’t wait to go back and try other things on the menu.

   Anniversary dinner on a Tuesday. Very quiet, attentive service, compact creative menu. Cocktails were creative and well prepared. Our sever was great at explaining the dishes. The wine list was compact but nonetheless quite satisfactory. Server help pair wine food nicely. Food was over the top! Both our starters and mains were outstanding. The atmosphere was pleasant if a little plain. The outside appearance belies that excellent experience you are about to have. The food is not inexpensive so it is a great place for foodies but probably less so the picky or less adventurous. Highly recommend this place. We have already scheduled our next dinner here.

   We had a fabulous dinner here after our daughter’s micro wedding. They accommodated an earlier reservation for a large group and made our dining experience extra special. Thank you so much it was a memorable dinner.

    My wife and I ate here for our date night and could not be happier. We had great service, accommodations for food allergies, and delicious food and drinks. We were still talking about our meals the next morning. We will definitely be returning in the near future.

    Service was impeccable. The meal far surpassed our expectations - more like experiencing fine art than merely dinner. The only downside was the music in the restaurant - a jazz piano or trio is far better suited to the experience than the 80's Playlist that was just a bit too loud for conversation. Overall, a delightful evening - our first visit tonight won't be our last. Pricey, but worth the splurge. Not a place for kids.

    Very nice place but not up to the cost of food. Waitstaff dressed like slobs. Sorry, but if you are asking $50 for a steak plus other items, you need to class up the place.

    The House of William & Merry has been my favorite restaurant for years. Every dish and beverage I’ve had here speaks to my soul. I always arrive with the joy of embarking on a new culinary adventure, and my expectations are always exceeded. I too love the charming and cozy location. This place continues to be food heaven. Thank you for being here and for all that you do!

    Phenomenal meal. The cocktails (Manhattan) were fantastic. The house wine (Syrah) was great. We had not been for a few years and we are kicking ourselves for not going back sooner. Looking forward our next time. Our time away will be shorter this time.

    This was our third visit to the restaurant and the food and service were outstanding. Wait staff was very friendly and attentive. For an appetizer I had the foie gras and my wife had the cast iron baby octopus in truffle sauce. Both were very good, and I would reorder either of them in a minute. For our entrees my wife had the pork belly entree from the daily specials menu and I had the grilled prime beef deckle steak. Both were excellent! We didn't have room for desert but the offerings looked delicious as well. If you haven't tried this restaurant you should absolutely put it on your list. We will certainly be going back again soon!!!

    Hands down the best restaurant in Delaware! We enjoyed the most delicious foie gras w grilled peaches, refreshing hamachi crudo and a creamy and dynamic corn bisque. All of our entrees were exceptional and featured the best, freshest, seasonal, local produce and meats. The strawberry dessert is an absolute MUST try!!! The team at this restaurant is all around superb. We cannot wait to come back again soon!!!
