Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Kennett Square

I think there may have been a substitute chef last night. Our boiled potatoes were hard, even after we sent them back the first time. They had the texture of steamed turnips. The order of fried Brussell sprouts served looked more like a bowl of charcoal. I was surprised they were even brought to the table. On the good side, the order of steamed Brussel sprouts was perfect as were the meatballs and eggplant parmigiana.

We knew Christmas Day dinner at Sullivan’s Steakhouse would be jamming as they were the only fine dining establishment around open all day. When we arrived at 1PM it was already 3/4s full. We were seated in the elevated section in the back where the private room is located although everything was open to accommodate all their guests. Malik was our head server and did an outstanding job in a stressed situation due to the large crowd with service assistance from Hunter and Brian. The old fashioned prepared by CJ was outstanding. We each had a shrimp cocktail (disappointing as these were NOT fine steakhouse quality - these were wet and long in the tooth), split a tasty Caesar salad. For our main course, we split a filet mignon on the bone, twin lobster tails, mashed potatoes (iced cold upon arrival & eventually removed from bill) and asparagus. Overall, a delightful meal. For a major holiday, they did a great job handling everything. We enjoyed the experience very much and will be back.

It was our first Christmas Eve in town, and we wanted a quaint and local place with amazing food. We haven't been to Back Burner in some a couple years, but in my search, I noticed they were open for C.Eve. I made us reservations right away. It was the perfect place for our Christmas Eve dinner. The menu was a special holiday selection, so it was simple, but still had a nice variety of options to satisfy any taste we had (from steak to seafood to pasta). The service was amazing and the food was delicious. Not only will we return, but we would spend our holiday here again if the opportunity arose. Thank you for taking such great care of us!

The best Cowboy Cut Pork Chop I’ve ever had! The Brussels were a little too oily but mashed sweet potatoes were yummy! Overall, good food, good value, and good service.
