Voted Critics' Choice for Best Burgers in Delaware by Delaware Today three years in a row, Jake's Wayback Burgers is a treasure trove of handmade burgers, house-cut potato chips, and throwback milkshakes. From a single location on Route 273, Jake's exploded across the nation, getting pickles and lettuce all over America's most important monuments. The eatery's hand-dipped shakes and monthly burger specials—such as the Texas Jake burger—can be enjoyed in 10 different states, alongside a menu of 100% beef hot dogs and triceratops-friendly veggie burgers.

Moro Restaurant's head chef, Michael DiBianca, orchestrates a market-inspired menu of seasonal dishes, reinventing traditional recipes and creating new dishes that showcase individual ingredients. From his teen years through adulthood, Michael gained culinary experience working at produce stands, fish markets, and fine restaurants, including apprenticing with a French chef and arm-wrestling with a local seafood kingpin. Carrying on this vision, culinary crews make weekly visits to local markets in search of ingredients and inspiration, and use their findings to change menus weekly or daily. Dishes incorporate freshly imported Chilean turbot, truffles from Oregon, and sushi-grade fish from Hawaii, and the same fine fare can also grace public gatherings as part of restaurant-style catering services. An extensive wine list gathers fine libations from Italy, Australia, Argentina, and France, blending more international influences than a Twister tournament between prime ministers.
