About Southeast Kitchen

Southeast Kitchen, located at 1901 Delaware Ave, Wilmington, DE 19806, is a Chinese Restaurant that operates exclusively as a takeout establishment. Customer reviews highlight the unique ordering and pickup process.

The restaurant does not offer dine-in services. Customers are required to place orders online and pick them up at the door. Upon arrival, customers are met at the entrance, where they are informed about the online ordering system. Some reviews indicate confusion and a feeling of awkwardness due to the lack of a traditional walk-in ordering process and physical barriers to entry.

Regarding the food, customer experiences vary. Appetizers like spring rolls and dumplings receive positive feedback. However, main dishes such as the Chicken Basil are criticized for being overly greasy and lacking flavor. The Chicken Pad King is described as "okay" but not comparable to similar dishes at other Thai restaurants. Overall, some customers found the main courses to be disappointing, especially considering the price.

There is speculation that the restaurant might be undergoing renovations, which could explain the current takeout-only setup. There are also comments that the overall food is okay, but not impressive, and some customers hope for improvements in both food quality and service. The location of the restaurant is noted as being in a good town/city.

For inquiries or to place an order, you can contact Southeast Kitchen at (302) 691-7728 or +1 302-691-7728.

We stopped on our way up to New York for a birthday trip. The reviews were really high so I thought it would be a great place to stop. Welp! First off, this is take out only. You can't even walk in, you wait on the steps for your order. You also can only order online per the sign on the window. We still ordered because we had already taken the time to go there. Spring roll was good. Dumplings were good. Chicken Basil was way too greasy and lacked flavor. I had to dump the sauces from the appetizers into it to add flavor. Chicken pad king was OK, my husband said. It wasn't the same as he's had in the past at other Thai restaurants. All in all, appetizers were good, but the main dishes were a bit disappointing for the price.

There is no eat-in. They are probably renovating the place. Like others mentioned, you showed up in front of the restaurant wondering how to get in to order food, there are lines/signs blocking your way entering the restaurant -- feel weird and bad as a customer. And some one came out asking if you were there to pick up order. Then you were told to make an order online. The first time I see how the restaurant is run like this one. :-) The food is ok not too impressive. Hope the business is doing better for both food itself and service. It is a good town/city to visit or stop by.

Good Thai food. Be careful if you like hot food. Everything over a 2 hot is hotter than you think. I usually get a 5 hot at most Thai places. Here I can do a 3 hot max.

3.8 The drunken noodles were really good as was the panang curry. We ordered pad Thai as well but their spice levels are quite high for all dishes so beware of that. We ordered a level 2 which was spicy for a pad Thai. Overall we enjoyed the food and the friendly staff.

The rice was beyond sticky and a little hard like it was repeated not fresh at all the sauce on the wings were delicious very flavorful but when you bite onto the chicken its plain no taste at all and it was very chewy for some odd reason the rolls were just ok the sauce for the curry was very flavorful but they literally only put about six pieces of chicken in the sauce all sauce and peppers not enough meat I probably wouldn't go back
