I decided to dine at Espuma for the Rehoboth Beach Restaurant Week. Needless to say, it was a enormous disappointment. I should preface this review by stating that the restaurant week menu was $35.00 for three courses. My guest and I upgraded to the $45.00 menu for the wine pairings. The average entree for Espuma ranges $30.00 and up. Our... More

My husband and I just celebrated his birthday by having dinner at Espuma. We have lived in Rehoboth Beach for 8 yrs but this was our first time at this restaurant. We always thought it might be too pricey for us -- but in fact, compared to other restaurants like Back Porch, this was much better quality experience and not... More

The food and service was excellent, exceptional, local, organic, and delectable. Everyone was super friendly and one of the best meals we have had in Rehoboth in over a decade.

We arrived on a Monday night to celebrate our anniversary. We sat at the bar to have a cocktail before going to a table. We never got to a table. The bartender/hostess/server was so wonderful we never left the bar. Her name is Florina and she is an exceptional mixologist. Not only that, she was very pleasant and made our... More

We went for the paella night on an off-season Monday, and very much enjoyed our evening. Our server, Ty, was outstanding - knowledgeable, professional, and attentive without being in the least cloying - so much so that we actually thought he might be an owner. But no, just a fine and invested server: he explained that they pride themselves on... More

If you're in Rehoboth for a nice night out and are searching for delicious food in a swanky (but unpretentious) restaurant, Espuma is the place for you. My boyfriend and I vacationed to Rehoboth for our 3-year anniversary and came to Espuma on the recommendation of friends who have parents in the area and visit often. We're so glad we... More

We visited on Christmas Eve, when Espuma was one of the few restaurants in town that was open for dinner. There was a prix fixe special featuring the restaurant's paella. I had a prosciutto and chees "cannoli" as my appetizer and my husband had the mushroom soup, both of which were excellent. I had the vegetarian paella and my husband... More

Overpriced mediocre. The paella was salty, had a few medium shrimp and a little chicken, if it was chicken. Ravioli had way too much bacon, and halibut not distinctive. No return for me.

Went on a Friday night and restaurant was only 1/3 full. Bar was packed, so we waited longer than we shoukd have for drinks. When you first enter the restaurant the room on the right was a mess with drapes barely covering it. For inner, i had the Paella which was small, with very little seafood and rice overcooked -...

What a treat to find this gem of a restaurant, slightly hidden just a block of busy Rehoboth Ave. The service was impeccable and helpful in selecting items to explore. While the food was good, varied, a eclectic, the true gem of this place is its concoctions of fruit and infused martinis... Which we had to restrain ourselves from sampling... More
