Lexus of Wilmington

Jun 27, 2022

Who hasn’t driven home from work after a long, grueling day, parked in the drive, dropped the keys in the bowl inside the front door, and made their way into the kitchen only to find nothing suitable for dinner in the refrigerator? Too tired to get back behind the wheel to go shopping or eat out, it’s the menu drawer for you. Thankfully, Wilmington, DE has excellent delivery restaurants serving a wide-ranging variety of delivery food.

1. Chelsea Tavern for Modern American Food

Located on North Market St in downtown Wilmington, the Chelsea Tavern is an elegant bar and restaurant serving modern American cuisine, along with a range of craft beers (bottled and on tap) and a well-stocked wine cellar. The indoor bar and dining area offer a softly lit, colonial atmosphere, but there is also sidewalk and patio dining outdoors in pleasant weather. The menu features burgers, sandwiches, steak and seafood entrees, and a selection of pizzas.

The Chelsea is open for lunch and dinner seven days a week until 1:00 am if you fancy a trip through historic New Castle’s cobblestone streets in your all-wheel-drive Lexus ES. But, delivery is available through GrubHub for those times when you don’t want to leave the house.

2. Drop Squad Kitchen for Great Vegan

Perched on the west bank of the Christina just south of Chase Blvd, the Drop Squad Kitchen prepares every item on their vegan menu to order, refusing to prepare anything until the customer orders it. Dishes include sides, salads, tacos, wraps, sandwiches, and full entrees, and all are made lovingly with homestyle ingredients. To wash it all down, you can choose from fresh juices, smoothies, and shakes.

Open seven days from 11:00 am- 8:00 pm, 9:00 pm on Fridays and Saturdays, dishes are priced well below $20, with some items under $10, while beverages are below $10. You can order delivery through ChowNow and GrubHub.

3. Gianni’s Pizza for Traditional Delivery Food

Trolley Square is a great Wilmington night spot, with shops, restaurants, and bars, some of which feature live music. Gianni’s Pizza has long been a popular place to grab a quick bite during a pub crawl, but they also deliver. Open daily from 10:00 am (11 on Sundays) to 10:00 pm, picking up the phone to order is the easy part. Choosing from their wide-ranging menu of tasty Italian and American food may require more time.

Along with basic cheese pies baked in the Neopolitan or Sicilian styles and served whole or by the slice, Gianni’s offers no less than 27 gourmet pizzas, 18 appetizers, 13 salads, eight strombolis and calzones, nine hot and seven cold subs, ten steak sandwiches, a half-dozen traditional sandwiches, seven charbroiled burgers, 15 wraps (with fries), seven pasta dishes, and eight baked specialties. Oh, and there’s also chocolate cake, cheesecake, and (leave the gun, take the) cannolis for dessert.

Like these three establishments, a car dealership should offer a tantalizing array of models, new and pre-owned, not to mention excellent service and parts, with delivery an option when you purchase a new vehicle. While waiting for your dinner to arrive from the Chelsea Tavern, Drop Squad Kitchen, Gianni’s Pizza, or any of Wilmington’s other fine restaurants, contact Lexus of Wilmington to schedule a test drive.
