Delaware is known for being one of the seafood capitals of America, though it doesn’t get the credit that neighboring Maryland seems to enjoy. If you live here, though, you know that the First State is one of the best places to enjoy a waterfront meal, and one Lewes restaurant serves up some of the freshest seafood with amazing views of the Lewes and Rehoboth Canal.

The Wheelhouse is a new seafood spot in a familiar location. It took over the old Wharf in Lewes in 2018.

The location could not be better - it sits near Fisherman's Wharf on the Lewes and Rehoboth Canal, and if there's a boat slip available, you can sail right on in.

The raw bar is one of the best around, and you'll love the selection of fresh oysters, mussels, and clams available when you stop by.
