Rated “Extraordinary to Perfection” Overall on Zagat!
We’re thrilled to announce the new Zagat score ratings for Domaine Hudson:
Food: 26 (“extraordinary to perfection”)
Decor: 24 (“very good to excellent”)
Service: 25 (“very good to excellent”)
Even after an ownership change in 2011, this “classy” Wilmington New American “continues to excel,” with a “knowledgeable” staff recommending “dead-on pairings” of wines from a “staggering” list and “fresh, inventive” face (“save room for that cheese plate”); the mood is “chill” in the “comfortable,” “intimate” space, and while some gripe about the “small portions for the money,” many consider it an “all-around top-notch” experience.

Reviews
The waiter was knowledgeable and quite personable… but the chef… he is an incredible talent and we requested that he come out so that we could applaud his efforts.
I had been to this establishment before for wine flights, beer and cheese and thought that was deliciously different but they have now risen to a whole new level!
Great service and lovely food and wine. It is a great place for a small bite and a drink or a multi course meal. Great for business, family or an outing with friends. Also a romantic setting for a couples evening.
The best part, however, was the wine list. I loved the iPad app that allowed me to select wine based on location, varietal, price, or vintage year. The selection of wines was good, and hit many price points. A nice experience all around.
