Bardea Steak

Bardea Food & Drink co-owners Scott Stein and Chef Antimo DiMeo expanded their restaurant group with Bardea Steak, a new concept in Downtown Wilmington DE in Fall 2022. The 5,000 SF steakhouse is adjacent to their current location and features a 120-seat open hearth restaurant with horseshoe-shaped, dark wood-topped bar and four-season sunroom with porcelain mosaic tile flooring, sky lights, bifold windows, and a back bar area. The landscaped street-side patio includes bistro-style tables and a small lounge with attention-grabbing white stucco and painted wood trim, factory glass windows and spotlights. Inside, a decorative fireplace made of steel, emerald-hued tile, and red brick will be nestled between leather banquettes. Wood slat booths line the wall leading closer to the hearth, featuring more emerald-hued tile, steel and custom millwork.
