First visit to Heirloom to celebrate an anniversary. The meal was an “Event”, everything was delicious. Can’t wait to return to try something new. Maybe for my birthday. Pictured is the mushroom soup, pork belly and fried chicken. No salt and pepper needed it’s not even on the table.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about our dinner at Heirloom! We were in Lewes and wanted to find someplace special to celebrate our wedding anniversary and Heirloom was PERFECT! The Victorian home was decorated with such care and attention to detail for the late summer season. The service was warm and attentive without being tooo attentive. But the real star was the food! The menu was crafted to elevate all the tastes of August and we enjoyed everything we ate from the tomato butter on housemade bread to the chicken with corn and patty pan squash to the tuna with blueberry ponzu sauce to the housemade summer squash & pine nut ravioli. Oh and desert! We just couldn’t decide on one, so we ordered all three! (We were a party of 4 but in retrospect I would have made the same choice if it was just two of us!) We could not decide which dessert was the best, they were all so good. We can’t wait to return and will make a visit to Heirloom an annual tradition!

Best meal I’ve had in years. Everything was perfect! Tomato appetizer, scallop entree, pork loin entree, and the Sour Cream Panna Cotta for dessert. Andrea was amazing. Super knowledgeable and her descriptions were spot on. Can’t wait to come back!

Theresa Middlebrooks
Wow! We had dinner here tonight in celebration of my birthday.

Marilyn Chubb
Really fabulous dinner with attentive service by Angel in a lovely old Victorian. Could not have been better ! Jumbo soft shell crabs were a special and perfectly prepared and presented , as were the crab salad , Kennett Square mushrooms and the flourless chocolate torte. Tea served with dessert was properly prepared – loose in an infusion pot ( points for that from an often overlooked tea lover )!! Highly recommend this lovely restaurant .

Food was great, drinks good, service good. My husband and I were on vacation and took our 19 month old with us as a necessity. While our waitress was amazing with our son, I recommend only bringing your kiddos if they are well behaved and accustomed to eating out and can eat without a high chair. It is an adult centered restaurant. We sat outside and we did fine. Would come back again with or without our son.

Charles Liggan
Fantastic meal. Incredibly friendly staff. And we had great weather so eating outside was perfect. But yeah, the food is absolutely worth trying this place out if you’re on the fence.

The ingredients are well prepared but the flavors were somewhat off.

Meryl Beckingham
Cute restaurant but missed all the important elements of fine dining. We were not even asked if we wanted desert. The worst part was a rude manager/owner. I will not be back nor should anyone who appreciates the finer experiences of good food.

Iwan Barankay
We had a lovely dinner here. Very friendly and attentive service. My wife enjoyed the trout, my teenage son loved the hanger steak (with some szechuan pepper corn in the sauce), and I thought the 4h lamb with zucchini gnocchi was delicious. All paired well with sauces and veggies.
