9. Alex's Seafood Restaurant
Reviewed By MsGetThere
This restaurant is only open Friday - Sunday and is located inside the Farmer's Market in Hare's Corner. I LOVE this restaurant. Staff is so friendly and the food is to die for. Menu is extensive and has a great selection of any seafood you can think of. Food is always fresh and well seasoned. Once you eat here, places like Red Lobster and Joe's Crab Shack will never measure up. Much better prices as well. Keep in mind, it is a hole in the wall. Seating is limited and they are usually packed on the weekends.

We read a few good reviews on this restaurant and love eating on the water so we went here. This restaurant is very rustic, the chairs are plastic and comfortable enough, the music great, server Chelsea did an excellent job. We really liked our food, spouse said the crab cake sliders didn't need the bun and he would order them again anytime. It's a local place to hang out, drink and dance, how great.

My wife and I dropped in for dinner on a Sunday, based upon her prior enjoyment of dinner while out with other family members. We each had 1/4 chicken - white meat, as well as sharing a half pitcher of sangria.Portion sizes are more than adequate, but while she enjoyed and commented of the flavorfulness of her entree (Remember - same as mine), I wondered of what she was speaking.After sampling her chicken, it was clear that hers was, indeed, flavorful, while mine was not. Yes, both were moist and meaty.Her side of maduros was tasty, while my fried yucca fingers were dry with minimal flavor. Even dipping sauces didn't help the yucca. Sangria had a nice taste, but the fruit was straight out of a can of fruit cocktail.So, some things went well, while others did not. Neither of us routinely eat chicken skin, so some skinless menu options would be nice. The cost was reasonable, while the service was friendly and helpful.

The very best crabs, and crab cakes ANYWHERE. Long known for this. Several local best of awards.

Have gone a couple times, and have mixed feelings. The servers definitely treat the locals/regulars better than those they don't know. Seems to be a popular place for crabs. We have never had them, but have been told you need to reserve in advance. Also heard weekly shrimp special is good. Again, have not had. But, did order shrimp off the menu. They weren't cheap, but they were large and cooked perfectly. Found the crab and sausage soup to be good, but the cream of crab not so good (too much flour). Rock fish bites pretty good - decent portion size. Lots of folks like the crab cakes, but too much filler for us. No frills atmosphere. Very casual. Has a little bit of smell when you enter. It is a tavern, which means no underage kids allowed. Wish it were better, as we live nearby and is convenient.

My spouse had the coconut shrimp, one of the few non-garlic, non-spicy items on the menu and I had the catfish and chicken jambalaya. Her's was 6 large shrimp accompanied with mashed sweet potatoes and hush puppies; my catfish was lightly bread and deep fried to a moist perfection. The chicken jambalaya was also moist with vegetables and lightly season; great meals. A lot of food and some left overs for take away. To full for dessert. The only thing was that there were 6 medium size shrimp for $26; a bit overpriced for that size shrimp.

Closed for 2019 - thanks for another great season - see you all spring 2020! Enjoy the holidays!!! See you soon!

We wanted to order crabs, shrimp, and little neck clams to take home for a family gathering. We called Wiso's to inquire about the type of crabs available. The gentleman that answered the phone took his time to educate us on the best choice for the day. I appreciated his honesty about the size and how "full" the crabs would be with meat. We ordered x-large males that were running about 5 3/4 inches. We picked up our take away order and headed home. Our crab, shrimp, and clam feast was a complete success. The crabs were sweet and delicious and the body of the crab full of meat. The shrimp and clams were the best all of us had ever eaten. I have lived in Delaware over 20 years and never eaten at Wiso's....this changed today. We have already planned our next feast and will certainly be calling Wiso's!

The food is not out of this world but it is very good at a very good price. I had Snow Crab and got a lot for the price. The oysters were good. Beer was very reasonable and service was excellent. Although I didn't get the blue crabs lots of others around us did and they were good sized. If you are looking for a reasonable family restaurant this is a can't miss

Iâve never been a huge fan of the food here, but on a recent trip I tried the barbecue chicken nachos, which were excellent. Crabbys is close to my house so itâs any easy place to visit for an adult beverage. I love the outside bar. The draft beer choices are good and the staff work hard and are very friendly. Try the nachos!
