“Delicioso la mejor comida de wilmington recomendado 100%”

“Mama J has the best food in the area. She grows her own veggies and will likely offer you a succulent in some weirdly cute container. Her kimchi is the ONLY kimchi worth eating and her kimchi soup is sooo good! Her egg rolls are also amazing and made fresh!”

“Great job hiring the young woman working on her solo yesterday evening ? I believe her name was Kristen. Polite smart hardworker.i had quit coming subway cuz the other woman always look kinda high & nasty ?The lady yesterday made me 5subs for my family & listen to details of what I wanted and food was pretty good. Impressive. Looks like yall under staff in need of hires because she was the only one at work running subway by herself .”

“1/4 lb thickburger. EXCELLENT! Burger hot, veggies cold, bread soft. �”

“This evening we were excited to bring friends who had never been to Seabird, and it was my wife’s birthday! The food did not disappoint. Our friends loved it. It was good to see a restaurant with a sense of humor when they brought out a “no calorie” birthday cake! (A lit candle stuck to a dessert plate)”

“I cannot say enough within this review to express how excellent Benny’s is. Firstly, the atmosphere is capturing from the exterior in. A beautiful, classic pizzeria with luxury table tops, stained glass fixtures, rustic wood floors and brick walls that provides an elegant yet warm feel throughout the dining experience. The service and hospitality were superb; every interaction from the host, bartender, server, and manager allowed me to feel welcomed and accommodated. Each member went above and beyond for my friend’s engagement celebration. We were greeted promptly and generously. I met the manager, Drew, and my server, Lauren, who were both fantastic. Lauren made us the best cocktails. She even juiced real apples to make the most phenomenal drink I have ever had. We ordered a pizza and Strombolis, which were all fantastic. They both came with a fresh salad and warm, crispy fries. We ended our experience with gelato, and even though our bellies were so full and happy, I don't think we could ever go back without getting the gelato for dessert. Everything was clean, beautiful, and tasty—just perfection. If you want a fun evening with exquisite food, friendly service, as well as a memorable experience, Benny’s is the place to go. Definitely a 10/10 all the way around and one of the best places in Wilmington to dine. Amazing for a celebration with friends and family or just a date night. Highly recommend!”

“Thank you Origins Food and Drink! Thank you Alicia, and I hope I spelled that right!  Not only did I get to host a fantastic (Oh so tasty) lunch for my visiting cousins, just off the highway, but as we sat in the nice quiet bar area, talking well through your lunch closure, your staff just let us stay. Nobody said a word. Thank you for that. ❤️ One cousin lives in Rwanda and the other in Florida, and I haven't seen them in a year! ❤️ Once again, you are my restaurant of choice for so many reasons! Thanks for the incredible food and professionalism! (Originally posted on my Facebook page on July 1, 2024)”

“Tonight was our first time while visiting family in Wilmington. What an absolutely incredible experience! Everyone was so kind and our server was so friendly and also very knowledgeable about the menu. Our food was absolutely incredible! Can’t wait to go back on our next visit!”

“Classy, delicious, and highly recommend. Awesome experience.”

“Top favorite coffee shop I have ever visited (apart from my other favorite North Carolina coffee shops that staff those with special needs and disabilities)!! AMAZING drinks, the most phenomenal backyard space to hang out and bring your kiddos (human or pup), coolest concept and decor, and some really friendly and personable staff. I was so excited to find this awesome new(er) spot and I can’t wait to come back!”

“The Sangria is the best Sangria I have ever had. The food was great! Super cute and our server was nice. I can not wait to go back.”

“We were shopping in Wilmington and we wanted pizza. Best pizza we have ever had!!!!”

“The best icecream in Wilmington! I love how there are gluten free and vegan options. Something I do want to mention is that there is potential risk of cross contamination. I realized that not every icecream has its own scooper. When I came in the lady asked me if I wanted a clean scooper for my icecream which I said no but I felt like it wouldn't have mattered if I were to say yes or no because it probably was contaminated prior. So she used the same scooper that she got my boyfriends not gluten free icecream to get my gluten free icecream. I personally am not allergic to gluten so it is by preference but warning anyone that actually has an allergy or that is vegan since the business comes off as allergy friendly to me at least.”

“wonderful customer service, sweet, personable staff. this movement shows there are still those who care and whose who can do”

“This Crumbl location in Wilmington NC is supreme. I go nearly every week and the cookies always look like the website. The wait is never too long. Sometimes the popular ones sell out some days especially on Saturdays so try to get there earlier.”

“Love the food and the atmosphere- the staff is great! When dining alone- the staff is super helpful and friendly. And that is not even talking about the wine which is grand!!🙂”

“Everything I have ever had from Olivero has been incredibly delicious! Not overly fussy or complicated. Just perfection. The service is always 10/10 too! Definitely my favorite dinner spot in Wilmington.”

“I can’t say enough about how amazing On Thyme Restaurant is! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm smiles and a, welcoming atmosphere. The menu is packed with delicious options that cater to all tastes, but the is an absolute must-try! Have you tried the PHILLY EGG ROLLS?? The food is always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It’s clear that the team of chefs put their heart and soul into every dish. The staff is attentive, and eager to ensure you have the best dining experience. I selected On Thyme for my work Christmas Party and the staff fell in LOVE with everything. On Thyme delivers every time!! If you haven’t been yet, stop by and check it out—you won’t be disappointed!”

“Awesome pizza! We just moved to Wilmington and we have been searching for a good pizza. Don Luca’s was real homemade pizza with two great dipping oils to add a special delicious touch! Plus Tony the owner is dedicated to his food and to his customers!!!!.”

“Great food. Friendly, attentive staff. Will definitely be back!”

“Very friendly service and great food!!!”

“Good food, Great service.”

“For a special occasion last week, we travelled from Durham to Wilmington try this restaurant. We were NOT disappointed and it was so worth the trip! The dishes were all plant-based absolutely delicious. Even if you are normally a carnivore, you will not miss having meat. The restaurant space itself is beautiful and very tasteful and relaxing. All the staff were super friendly and hospitable. Felt like I was saying good-bye to friends when we left. Looking forward to my next trip to Wilmington!”

“Good pretzel! Neat place! Clean Barhrooms!”

“I have eaten Sushi all over the US as well as Asia and (not to mention) Japan. This place is very authentic and the sushi is just amazing. I only order sushi but my husband always gets a cooked dinner and he says they are amazing as well! The staff is attentive and the sushi chef (I believe owner) is fantastic. I sometimes get supermarket sushi as Genki is not real close to me. I used to appreciate it was “just supermarket sushi” but after Genki (10-12 times) it’s real hard to get a quick supermarket fix. Actually right now I’m salivating!”

“LOVED it! Excellent drinks, great service and super cute ambiance. Highly recommend!”
