From Japanese ramen and Korean BBQ to Thai tapas, Indian curry, and Mediterranean mezze — discover the best locally owned Asian and ethnic restaurants across Delaware.
Delaware’s Asian and ethnic dining scene stretches far beyond what most visitors expect — Korean BBQ in Dover, Vietnamese pho along Wilmington’s dining corridor, Thai tapas in Lewes, Japanese sushi bars in Rehoboth Beach, and everything in between. Every restaurant on this list is independently owned, bringing authentic flavors and personal culinary stories to communities across all three Delaware counties. These are the spots where the owners are often in the kitchen, the recipes reflect real cultural heritage, and the food tastes like nothing you’d find at a chain. Delaware’s most adventurous dining is right here.
