Description
Lily's on the Canal rests beside the serene Delaware Canal in Lambertville. Gaslights encourage curious diners into this hidden gourmet lunch spot. Lily's offers alfresco dining on the patio for the lucky few who are able to land a table outside. Inside, the restaurant boasts an open central kitchen and accommodates guests on two floors. The ambience is playful and hip. The carefree mood is enhanced by apple green and pale yellow walls. A "waterfall" alongside the staircase adds to the restaurant's eclectic aesthetic. The prices are low to mid-range. Popular items include; grilled panini sandwiches, pasta, salads and wine from Alba Vineyards.

Overpriced.
Our party of 6 went for dinner. Two ordered the lamb and it tasted like ShopRite lamb chops -- the $2.99/lb gamey. The shrimp quesadilla appetizer at about $12 had 3 shrimp on top. The key lime pie dessert was green (if you know key lime then you know that's just not right), and tasted like chemicals. The bill was over 350.00. We would have been much happier at another establishment, walking away with a full belly and money in our pockets. [16 May 2006 16:42:52]

Crab Cakes to die for
If you never had Lily's crab cakes, you are in for a real treat. They are light and delicate and the lime aioli sauce is second to none. The atmosphere is wonderful and if you can get a table near the center and can watch them cook, you will see that they really enjoy what they do. [17 Sep 2006 16:18:41]

New menu
Lily's has a new menu. Very good, and very fresh. We loved the grilled chicken with rosemary and chorizo, and the cajun pork chops. [18 Jun 2007 10:42:43]

Awful customer service
Great atmosphere, good menu, poor execution. Appetizers were less than mediocre and our entrees "got sent to another table". We waited an hour for entrees after finishing our appetizers. The manager offered coffee and dessert, but had no interest in feedback. Manager said that they're busy on Saturdays, yet we seemed to be the only table that had the issue. The server tried to credit one appetizer, but Carl the manager said "We don't do that... I offered dessert and apologized, good night" and opened the door for us. We were glad to oblige.

Excellent
We loved dining at Lily's. I had the house salad, which was delicious, and my husband had the fried calamari. Both were wonderful. Our dinner entrees were just as good.
Our waiter was warm and friendly and dining outside was a real treat. [18 Aug 2007 22:47:06]
