So my peeps, this is a hidden gem in Wilmington NC. I had people tell me it was very good. Well, itâs well beyond good. First, I walk in to this little. âMom and Pop small businessâ and Iâm immediately greeted by the staff. Very welcoming. Saw some people waiting on their order so I went to the window. I was greeted by a wonderful hostess who was very forthcoming with information as I asked many questions! She set me up with a shrimp and crab boil and I added their collard greens to the order along with some hush puppies. They were very busy and the staff continued conversations with me while I waited. I learned the original name was Zoraâs and that the new owner brought back the old name. This place has been there for years! One of the staff educated me a lil on how they clean blue crab for frying which I thought was amazing that she went out of the way to do so. Now to the food. Their signature butter sauce on the boil was absolutely full of flavor and spice. Delicious! Perfectly cooked and everything was amazing. The greens were cooked to perfection and the flavor reminded me of how my grandmother used to make. The his puppies were flavorful and well prepared! All in all I would recommend this place to anyone reading this. The price for the food was consistent with most places in Wilmington with one exception, abundantly better prepared, better flavor and more welcoming staff than any seafood place in town! Make sure you visit this place and you wonât regret it! Outstanding.

Great prices on fresh seafood.

Seafood display was full BUT appeared " dry " and aged! I selected 4 fish that looked the freshest and had the clearest eyes ( a way to tell freshness ). This may be because of the holidays and people eating everything BUT fish! Will try again to see if things change. LOTS OF FROZEN FISH

It was an extremely long wait to be cashed out.

Not bad! I passed by this place often when it was closed and vowed to one day try it. That day was today, during a tornado watch. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in because it spelled clean and was impeccably clean. I ordered the whiting platter with grits and collard and lemon cake.
The food was ok. I much prefer more seasoning on my fish but it tasted so fresh and clean this can be easily overlooked. I would have given 5 stars but they forgot my lemon cake. When I tried to call there was no memory and a receipt was not given to give them the price. When I finally looked at my esit card receipt I paid $19.38. This seems to indicate I paid for a cake as the platter and the extra $0.50 for the collard greens only amounts to $15.50 including tax. Iâm not making go a big deal as I probably donât need the extra calories but I am warned should I patronize again.
Itâs worth checking out!

Great little seafood market with an attached kitchen. Surprised I haven't come across it before, but will be back for market and made to order cooked items.

My food was good they just donât give enough tartar sauce 1 cup per plate. I order a plate and had to go back for utensils.

Incredible spot for a combo fried plate. Huge portions & insanely nice employees. Would highly suggest this spot
Great place they have male blue crabs known as Jimmies. Very helpful in boxing everything up for you. If youâre not ready to cook them right away then theyâll ice them for you enabling a later cook time. Canât beat the price and service overall. Definitely buying from them again.
