very delicious, but supper was underwhelming- the lobster roll had barely any meat and the shrimp pasta was very watery. Nevertheless, the waitress was extremely nice and attentive and the view to the riverfront was beautiful during sunset.

Today was the worst service I have received anywhere in YEARS!!! I don't know if Jocelyn was new, or having a bad day, or just a terrible server in general. It took 10min be be greeted. We put our whole order in as we had plenty of time to go over the menu. It took 30min to get appetizers, which were actually pretty good. Calamari was a bit chewy but the poke was good and the raw oysters were fresh. I practically had to hand Jocelyn the dirty plates to get them off the table. She forgot the cheese bread but managed to get it out after we were done with our other appetizers but still before my beer that I had ordered at the start. The cheese bread was supposed to have olives and pimentos but was literally just toasted bread with cheese. We didn't dare comment or we may have been there another hour. My beer finally came about 10min after I got her to pick up the dirty plates and then entrees came about 5min after that. The "grilled" salmon on the salad was so greasy it seemed like they dunked it in the fryer. The crab cake sandwich was acceptable but not great. My buddy seemed to enjoy his fish and chips but was upset he didn't get any malt vinegar and again, was scared to ask for it in fear of slowing down service anymore. Total time for lunch was an hour and 40 min. This used to be one of my favorite places on the water but after this experience, I don't know that I will be coming back. I gave them 2 stars because the food wasn't awful, just the service.

Our server was friendly and attentive. Nice location on the Riverwalk. The food was just okay. We got a blackened shrimp po boy, fish & chips and peel & eat shrimp. It was all just okay, nothing I'd go back for.

We happened upon this place walking down Riverwalk in Wilmington and decided to give it a shot. Service was phenomal. Food really really good, views spectacular especially at sunset. Very pleased. Calamari very good, cheese bread phenomenal, oysters Rockefeller very good, grilled seafood tacos very good. Highly recommend it

We were out to see what Willmington was after hearing different things. After a few recommendations, we decided to go for a quick bite to eat. It is located on the river walk. Place was not that crowded. The service was quick, and our server was very friendly. We ordered the grilled fish tacos, which consisted of 2 tacos and lobster. The food was good and came out quickly.

I ordered the Nova Scotia oysters. Oysters were not gritty or had sediment settling at the bottom. The restaurant did not have the other types of oysters although handwritten on board. The service was not the best. Waited for a while before my server greeted me. This is only my experience.

Elijah’s restaurant has the RUDEST HOSTESS! An woman in her 60’s, dirty blonde wavy short bob with black rimmed glasses was so rude! She put her hand in my face when I asked her a question!

Solid spot with great food. I made the mistake of ordering steak at a seafood spot. Although the price was fine, it tasted like someone cooked it with a clothing iron. Service and atmosphere were fantastic. Next time, the lobster roll!
