“A family owned restaurant since 2008, Black Sea Grill offers up legitimate Mediterranean flavors in a casual and friendly environment.\n\nAlthough this visit was our first time, it obviously is no secret given every table was full.\n\nThe Appetizer Sampler - Humus, Stuffed Grape Leaves, Eggplant Delight and Falafel, served with Pita bread - was delicious. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and received rave reviews from all participants. (Not pictured due to pace at which everyone dug in!)\n\nDinner choices abound, drawing on traditional favorites and suitable for carnivores, vegetarians, vegans and guests with gluten sensitivities.\n\nA Surf and Turf consisted of Grilled Lamb Chops and Char-Grilled fillet of Mahi Mahi, both grilled expertly and seasoned well.\n\nThe Rainbow Trout (Butterflied North Carolina Trout), was a sizable portion and lightly seasoned.\n\nThe Falafel Dinner were compact and tasty without being dry or crumbling.\n\nKofte - Ground Lamb and Beef mixed together with Mediterranean Herbs & Spices and then Char-grilled - was warmly spiced with a nice char and great consistency.\n\nChicken Kabobs and Chicken & Beef Kabobs were similarly moist yet spiced and grilled nicely.\n\nA compact yet appropriate wine list includes red and white from Kavakildere. The Angora white (made with the Sultana grape) has nice freshness and acidity while displaying citrus aromas and good body. It paired well across the board.\n\nStaff makes you feel at home and un-rushed.“

“My wife ani recently moved to Wilmington. We have been looking at various places to eat and I saw a write up on Soulfil Twist. Yesterday we decided to locate them and found them at their home location. We stopped and spoke with Leon and found that he and Pat owned the food trailer. Leon told us where they would be serving today.We got there early and were in no way disappointed we have had fried okra all over the south including “family “ I will tell you, her breading, is superb not only for the okra but her shrimp. You want to put Soulful Twist on your list of places to eat in Wilmington. 5 stars definitely!!“

They were very understanding and accommodated us. Not only that but the food 🤌 wonderful. The shrimp and grits was nicely balanced and the oysters were amazing! Shout out to Vinnie for taking care of us and taking time to talk about the history of the area.“
