Spotlight on Lily Thai Cuisine in Rehoboth Beach

Whether you already love thai food or just like to try new things, you should definitely check out Lily Thai Cuisine in Rehoboth (10 N. First St. in Rehoboth). No matter what you order off the menu, you are guaranteed a delicious meal and if you’re afraid something is too spicy you can ask them to take the heat down a few notches (or up a few notches if you love peppers!). The staff is friendly and accommodating, the atmosphere is pleasant, and the prices are moderate.

Spotlight on Henlopen City Oyster House in Rehoboth

With delicious seafood and an extensive raw bar menu, it’s easy to see why Henlopen City Oyster House (50 Wilmington Ave. in Rehoboth Beach) is one of the most highly rated restaurants in Rehoboth Beach.  Henlopen City sources regional seafood markets, relies on locally grown fruits and vegetables, and only serves meats that have been raised locally.  This ensures freshness and deliciousness!  The only downside is that depending on when you go you might have to wait a bit to get a table since they don’t take reservations, but it is worth the wait.  The food is worth raving about, prices are reasonable, and the service is great.  Henlopen City Oyster House is a great choice for any occasion.  The restaurant opens at 3pm daily and begins serving dinner at 5pm.  You should definitely check it out.
