Houston White Co.

When you’re feeling extra sexy thanks to a beach glow that may or may not be sunburn, head to Houston White Co. for a fancy date night with the lifeguard who saved you from your earlier boogie-boarding incident. The moody dining room has white tablecloths, leather banquettes, and framed artifacts that pay homage to Delaware’s history. Expect traditional steakhouse cuts like New York Strip grilled and topped with a butter-heavy sauce of your choice, but your go-to should be the ribeye with a side of au poivre. Houston White Co. is the best steakhouse in the area, so book a reservation in advance, especially in the summer months.
