Wilmington, Delaware, features several waterfront restaurants that are worth an evening of your time. After a round of golf at the Green Hill Country Club, it is just about a three-mile drive to the Riverwalk area.

On the various menus are exotic fish dishes, burgers, steaks and many more choices to tempt a palate.
