“Unmatched uniquely gorgeous Riverside view & charm together with extremely delicious fresh chef seafood & other entrées after a cup of she-crab soup! This is one of my most favorite restaurants Ever- considering the entire dining experience of the atmosphere, the food and the wait staff! Don’t allow a few negative reviews influences too quickly you when you read the next many hundreds of glowing reviews (many accompanied by photos of obviously extremely delicious chef inspired seafood dishes, and other non-seafood entrées! I lived at nearby Wrightsville Beach & had my office at the State Port in Wilmington for two years. Although there are many other great seafood & other type restaurants in the Wilmington Wrightsville beach area that I love, the ‘Pilot House’ Restaurant was, & still is, at the very top of my list favorite restaurant list in the U.S.! The unbeatable atmosphere of sitting out in the Cape fear River together with the fresh and delicious ‘She-Crab soup’, unique selection of other very fresh fish entrées really made my day! Also every client that I entertain there loved the unbeatable, unique atmosphere and foods that described! I love both lunch, with occasional ships passing by and dinner, particularly with the lights on the river at night!“

“The pasta was excellent, and the atmosphere was too! My partner and I went here for dinner on a recent trip to Wilmington from Western NC and it did not disappoint. The meat mixture in the bolognaise was perfectly tender, and the sauce was a great balance of parmesan and fresh tomato flavors. The richly colored, intimate interior of the restaurant was a nice touch that made our meal special. I'd definitely recommend a stop in for a meal while visiting (and would be there often if I was a local)!“
