About The Half

The Half is a highly praised sandwich shop known for its delicious food and excellent service. The "Esmeralda" and "Yinzer" sandwiches are particularly popular, and the Caprese Sandwich is also highly recommended. The restaurant offers a variety of vegetarian and vegan options, as well as accommodations for various dietary restrictions, including gluten-free bread. Customers appreciate the simplicity of the packaging and the friendly, super nice atmosphere. The team is commended for their outstanding service and fast, caring attitude.

This sandwich place is a local favorite and the best in Wilmington, with everything being fresh and absolutely delicious. The homemade sauces and amazing pickles on the sandwiches provide a lot of flavor. Both vegetarians and non-vegetarians can find satisfying options on the menu, which frequently changes. The setup is like an old diner with tables and bar seating; sitting at the bar offers a full immersive experience. However, the small size of the restaurant means it can get pretty busy, with seating and takeout lines. Customers recommend ordering online ahead of time to avoid the wait, which is worth it.

The Half is especially praised for its vegan and vegetarian offerings, which are described as delicious. The quality of the food is worth the price, according to reviews. Parking can be challenging due to the restaurant's location, and customers, especially women, should be aware of their surroundings when walking to the restaurant.

Wilmington Restaurant Review…. The Half

I love a good deli sandwich!

Here is the eastern part of North Carolina I have found, through our son, Alex, my new favorite deli restaurant, THE HALF. Gary and I have been there three times in the last nine months.

The unassuming restaurant is nestle in between buildings at 510 1/2 Red Cross Street near downtown Wilmington.

The menu is small, but don’t fear, the sandwiches are not! Traditional, vegan,...read full review
