Meding's Seafood

We ordered Cajun shrimp and crab cake sandwiches. The shrimps were way too salty but the crab cakes were chunky and good. The restaurant is dated and very cold , you’ll need your coats while eating.

The food was okay overall, and the appetizer was the best part. One of us ordered the broiled seafood combo (not pictured, you'll understand why in the rest of the post), but the waitress accidentally brought the scallop dish instead. Mistakes happen, and we were fine with that. What bothered us was how it was handled. She took the plate away, and after about 10 minutes, she returned with the same dish—but with three scallops removed—and by then it was cold. She said the rest of the combo would come later. Unfortunately, the rest of the meal didn’t arrive until everyone else was already finished. By then, we were ready to leave, and the flounder that was part of the combo was very thin and underwhelming. For the price we paid, we expected a much better experience. We left very disappoint

As a resident of Sussex County Delaware, I have passed by Meding's for many years but never dined there. Overall impressions? Food was mediocre, at best, considering the prices. I had the fried scallops with fries and a vegetable side. Scallops were barely breaded and I should have ordered them broiled instead. Our server was friendly and efficient. The restaurant atmosphere was mundane and could use a total makeover and refresh. Glad I finally experienced dining here, but won't be back anytime soon.

My husband and I have been wanting to go to this restaurant for quite a while and today we decided to stop in. Unfortunately I wish we hadn’t. I ordered the Louisiana style shrimp po boy and my husband had the crab soup and crab cakes. My sandwich was nothing special and the fries were not good. My husband’s soup and crab cakes had so many shells in it that it became a distraction to eat it. When I asked the waitress if it was normal to have so many shells she told me it was, because the crabmeat was fresh. I have eaten at several seafood establishments where there has not nearly been as many shells. Later that night I called the restaurant and asked to talk with a manager or owner and I spoke with the owners son who was rude and very stand off ish. We will not be returning. Lucki

We stopped on our way home from the Beach. Seating inside had a wait, but outside Seating was available. We were under a patio roof and it was a great day to be outside. The bugs weren't bad just a few Flys. Our waitress did a great job and the food was very good. Definitely recommend.
