We absolutely loved every morsel and our server was top notch! First time we ever tried the beef skewers and the wedge salad was one of the best we've ever had. Our entrées were spectacular as well. And then our espresso martinis were a great way to end the evening. Thank you!!!

Eclipse Bistro is consistently one of the very best restaurants in Wilmington. The service is impeccable and the food is sublime—everyone makes you feel very welcomed and well looked after.

Our out-of-town friends are also foodies - lots of excellent dining in Charlottesville - and they were wowed. Very good service although it took more time than it should have for the waiter to get back to us for our wine order. Things improved from that point forward. Excellent wines, the calamari was tender and our meals were uniformly delicious. Kudos to the chef for the exceptionally fresh and perfectly prepared Tripletail (fish) special.

I love how inventive they are with scallops. The fried asparagus is great. Nice portion size Lively and cozy atmosphere, but not so loud you can't hear each other. Service was good and not over-present.
Eclipse is consistently excellent. They have great servers, excellent bartenders, delicious food, and great ambiance. With all the great entree options, it was very hard to order a burger, which seems so pedestrian, but it is THE BEST BURGER IN WILMINGTON! (Sorry, Kid Shelleen's)

From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed! The food and drinks were outstanding! Our server, Raegan, was top notch! It was a very busy evening and she handled our table and every other table she was handling as if we were her only customers! She was attentive, kind and very knowledgeable of the menu items. Can't wait for our next visit to Eclipse.

First visit to Eclipse. Enjoyed our Valentine's dinner. Food and service were excellent. Calamari was prepared a bit differently than we've had before - recommend giving it a try. Pork chop was very tasty - large portion - taking some home. We will be going back.

Took 3 business associates from out of town there for lunch. I made suggestions as I eat there often, and I'm pretty sure they went back there for dinner on their own later. We had Blackened chicken Caesar salad, Eclipse burger x 2, and the Pork belly sandwich. Everyone loved it and said when they come back again that is where they definitely want to go. Eclipse ALWAYS pleases...

love this restaurant but was sad there were no specials offered this night as their menu hasn't changed too much in a long time and as we come fairly frequently was hoping for something different.

My husband and I had the fish chowder for an appetizer, it was flavorful, not salty, all the ingredients cooked perfectly and the broth had a creaminess but was not heavy. The duck entree was delicious. My husband had the scallops with goat cheese risotto which he thoroughly enjoyed. It came with 4 scallops, though he would have preferred 5. Service was excellent and timing between courses was perfect even though it was a busy Sat night (Valentine's weekend).
We celebrated our 38th year of our first date and Eclipse did not disappoint. Nicole was the best server and Andrew had his A game in making our drinks. It's our favorite place to eat.

The scallops were wonderfully cooked and the atmosphere was amazing. The service was okay but I was disappointed to find out she didn't share the specials menu. Other wise 10/10 stars.

Eclipse is one of my "go to" restaurants. I had a group of co-workers in town and Everyone was extremely satisfied & impressed with their overall experience at Eclipse. Service was excellent as well as the food. Never a disappointment...

The food was excellent but our waitress Raegan was awful. She was rushed and rude. She took plates off the table before we were done would start grabbing before even asking if you were done. She took my drink before I was done. She was terrible and needs to be retrained on customer service. I mentioned this to the chef and expected a follow up. My friend asked her to slow down torching the crème brûlée for a picture and she said “I've got lots of things to do “ and ignored her. She doesn't represent the brand and she made our visit; which was to celebrate my friend ,not great.
