Rehoboth Beach Eats!! Michy’s, Restaurant, Bar, Rehoboth Beach, Review, 2015 Brings Restaurant Expectations to the DE Beaches, Southern Delaware, Sussex County
“There is a difference between dining and eating. Dining is an art. When you eat to get the most out of your meal, to please the palate, just as well as to satiate the appetite, that my friend, is dining.” yuan mei, 1936
Michy’s opened last year in Rehoboth Beach. All of a sudden the parking lot where the Food Lion is located was more crowded than usual…….and that was the scene all summer long. Still, in the Second Season at the Delaware Beaches, reservations are a must at Michy’s. The address is 19287 Miller Rd. #17. Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971. Tel. 302-227-0999. Website? http://www.michysrelaxeddining.com. They close on Monday. Tues through Thursday they open from 4 p.m. until 9 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 4 p.m. until 10 p.m. and on Sunday from 5 p.m. until 9 p.m.
Our reservations was for an early dinner with Debbie, Jody, and Debbie K. These friends are part of my group called “the usual suspects”. They know me well. They wait for me to take photos. Nobody dares to start eating even though they might be dying to. Laughing is part of getting together. Catching up on our lives is always fun.
Michy’s has a colorful look throughout the restaurant. Sorry….it was crowded and for privacy I decided that only photos of our food would do on this evening. The ususual suspects had already dined at Michy’s, not me, though.
I had heard a lot about this new restaurant and I was pleasantly surprised by the service, the food, the ambiance, and the prices.
Arriving at the table was bread, olive oil and balsamic.
The Fire Cracker Shrimp were so delicious and plenty for sharing. They were tempura battered, sriracha mayo, scallions and crushed peanuts. Cannot wait to have them again.
We all had different entrees, which is great when trying a new restaurant. By the way, the usual suspects loved their dining choices.
Crab Crusted Mahi Mahi had asparagus, wild mushrooms, basil, cherry tomato, and red potato.
Day Boat Sea Scallops on wild mushroom, truffle-pea risotto, shaved parmesan and basil.
The Barramundi Bass was colorful, simple and so tasty. It was pan seared, topped with salsa cruda, vine ripe tomato, roasted pepper, kalamata olives, garlic, capers, basil, over jasmine rice.
My dish was the Salmon, horseradish crusted, over lemon basil rice, with a side order of soy baby bok choy, mirin, wine sauce and toasted panko. I love salmon and order it every time I see on the menu. This one was very good and would not hesitate to order it again.
Even though we were all more than satisfied, a sweet ending for sharing was necessary…..the strawberry dessert was just exactly what was needed…4 spoons.
To tell you the truth, I cannot wait to go back!! Talk to you later!!
Tip: It seems that Michy’s gets crowded for early dinner, but if you like to eat a bit later in the evening, go after 7:30 p.m. and it will be a very relaxing dining experience.
