This time I got there Thanksgiving sandwich, which I’ll be honest with you wasn’t very good compared to others in Wilmington but overall I do like to eat at cheese Smith so I’m not rating it off of that one sandwich.

We’ve been excited to try this restaurant for over a year and visited the Landfall location last night, Sun Nov 16th. My daughter & I are grilled cheese addicts but sadly, the experience was underwhelming. The woman at the counter wasn’t overtly rude, but she sure was not pleasant or friendly. I expected a decent wait but never mind waiting on good food, so no issues with that. To not offer ice w/complimentary filtered water that is warm, in such a highly regarded establishment, just seems contradictory & negatively influenced the overall experience. Even the canned soda my daughter purchased, gets warm after a bit, so in my mind, not offering ice seems in conflict with our $60.00 tab.
Maybe just an off day but I didn’t enjoy my maple bacon. The flavor profile & ingredient proportions just seemed off. The tomato soup was, in my opinion, awful. It is smoky red pepper tomato so I expected notes of smoke, but this tasted like reheated canned soup with half bottle of liquid smoke added. Asian fries were no better, and arrived cold. Mac Daddy was okay but bland, but cheesecake was excellent. Very clean also, but wouldn’t return to this location. Maybe cargo district is better.

Cheesesmith served up one of the best sandwiches we’ve had — the PIMENTO BLT is an absolute monster. My wife and I shared it and loved the crispy bacon, fresh tomato, romaine, pepperoncini mayo, and their amazing house-made pimento cheese all come together perfectly on warm ciabatta.
The staff was friendly, the service was fast, and the restaurant was spotless, making the whole visit even better.If you’re in Wilmington and want a sandwich that hits every mark, the PIMENTO BLT is a must-try. We’ll definitely be back.

EDIT: They brough back the Brussels!! Changing to a 5 star review. Thank you, CheeseSmith!
Okay... I love this place, but I am putting in a 3 star review because of a recent change. Why did you get rid of the bulgogi brussels sprouts? They were the perfect complement to the carb and cheese heavy sandwiches. Pretty please bring them back and I'll change this review to 5 stars. I would pay market price for them they were so good!

Nice atmosphere. Service was great. We both picked a sandwich to try and fries, drinks and water. It was over $40. Definitely more than we typically spend, thanks to spliting meals. There was more food than we could eat. The buffalo chicken cheese sandwich was really good, a lot of chicken and buffalo sauce. It didn't make it to our return to list, but that's only because we don't usually do sandwich meals.

What the atmosphere lacks the food makes up for. Looking for the ultimate grilled cheese 🧀 sandwich? You found it! Each selection is an amazing twist on your typical GCS! They have everything from sweet to savory to spicy. And don't forget a cup of their version of tomato soup! Smokey!
My favorite spot to grab the best grilled cheese you’ll ever have. Usually go for the Buffalo baby, but I switched it up this time and got the Mac Momma and was not disappointed.

This is a fun, clean, lots of tables creative grilled cheese brick and mortar outpost from the original food truck idea restaurant. They have some creative sandwiches and they come out hot and the bread is crispy- just like it’s supposed to be. This is comfort food at its best. The wait is a minute, but they make everything to order, so you can’t really complain. The people there were very nice and super helpful.
