16 Best Southern Restaurants in Wilmington

“Stopped there for brunch today. It was incredible! I had the Mediterranean Scramble.“

“First off, if you are staying in one of the hotels near Chicken Salad Chick, for god’s sake, do not trust Google Maps to get you there. It was a completely miserable failure.

Now, on to the restaurant itself. Delicious. I got the classic chicken salad on croissant with bacon. I felt like the bread overpowered the chicken salad, and the classic chicken salad is amazing. For my side, I had a scoop of the southern chicken salad; I liked the classic better. The sweet pickles tasted too store bought.

My husband had the turkey club on toasted white bread. It was exceptional. And huge! He had a scoop of the apple-pecan chicken salad. He couldn’t tell it had anything other than the classic. I got a mild pecan flavor and would be willing to give it another try.

The white chocolate cake was screaming at me when I walked in, so I tried a piece. It was goodish, but not really worth seven bucks.

Customer service was great.“

“Really great brunch today for Mother's Day! It was our first time here. Glad we go there right at opening, food was worth the wait! Also great place to bring kids there is a lot of stuff you can do with them while you wait for your table and food!“

“Hi guys !! I ordered pickup here and I was not disappointed the 4.7 star rating is there for a reason. The coconut shrimp was fantastic and the wings were good as well, but the drunken noodles stole the show! The drunken noodles here are never ending (the noodles aren't cut to pieces) leaving you with a mouthful of velvety texture and flavour. No other place in the area makes drunken noodles that aren't overly sweet or soggy and I genuinely enjoyed every mouthful. No other place will top this location and I hope to eat here again to try their other dishes. I LOVE THAI FOOD!“

“I have been going to this restaurant for some time and recently I asked for wet lemon pepper wings which isn’t on the menu. Now let me tell you I have been looking for good lemon pepper wings in Wilmington for some time and have not found them. She actually made a lemon pepper sauce for me and let me tell you it’s the best wet lemon pepper I have ever had. You need to try it ASAP. And it don’t just taste good on the wings, try it on the catfish, which she made special for my kiddo. When I tell you that ish hits mannnnn… that sauce is the truth. 💯“

“Went here tonight gor the first time. We ordered a special and loved every bite. Beautifully presented and flavor profiles were were fabulous. We look forward to returning. Our server was delightful. Unfortunately cannot remember her name.“

“Incredible food, very flavorful and perfect. oysters on half shell the best I had ever eaten. 10 out of 10 on service and experience. It was worth it!!!“

“Heard many good things about this restaurant. It was pretty full when we stopped by on a Sunday morning. We both ordered biscuits and gravy. Gravy was bland but everything else was good. Service was great. I’ll try something else next time we visit!“

“We stopped in on our way back to the airport from a week of vacationing at Top Sail Island, NC and the food and mimosa’s was awesome!! We’ll be back next year!“

“Great cocktails, a varied wine list, outstanding food, fun music and relaxed atmosphere. So glad we had dinner here!“

“Great breakfast. Omelet, grits and biscuit,, very good. Server Melissa's smile and great service was an added bonus.“

“Best buffet I’ve ever been to and best bbq in NC- hands down. The owners and the staff are all awesome! Casey’s has won best buffet pretty much every year since I moved to Wilmington and it is well deserved. If you like good ole southern cooking like grandma used to make- do yourself a favor and check this place out!“

“Went for the breakfast buffet. New remodel looks great, service was good, and the food was hot and fresh! Will absolutely be bringing my family back“

“I gave this restaurant a call asking if The public could dine in due to it being inside the hotel. She said of course we could. l let her know that we were coming from the federal courthouse to do breakfast because we was tired of same old breakfast spot adjacent to them. To make a long story short the staff was very nice. The atmosphere was very peaceful and relaxing. Definitely will be back“

“I ordered Cracker Barrel catering for my staff for Thanksgiving. It was amazing and all the staff loved it.“
