Big Fish Grill, Seafood restaurant in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.
Big Fish Grill is a seafood restaurant on the coastal highway in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, with a large indoor dining room and an attached market section. A seasonal outdoor patio extends the seating options when the weather allows.
Brothers Norman and Eric Sugrue opened the restaurant in 1997. What started as a modest spot grew steadily into one of the most recognized seafood destinations on the Delaware coast.
The menu at Big Fish Grill changes with the seasons and reflects what local fishermen bring in. Sitting down for a meal here gives a clear sense of how the coast shapes what people eat in this part of Delaware.
The restaurant sits directly on the main coastal road and is easy to spot from the street. Opening hours shift with the season, so it is worth checking ahead during the off-season or on weekday evenings.
Inside the restaurant, a raw bar area lets guests sit at high-top tables and watch staff shuck oysters and prepare shellfish right in front of them. This makes the preparation itself part of the meal.
