Bit overpriced but the place is nice
Went to Flying Machine Oyster Bar twice on my trip because the oysters were that good. The pimento cheese oysters—oh my, absolutely incredible. I wasn’t expecting to love them as much as I did. Drinks were also on point, with great cocktails and a solid selection.
Had the blue crab pasta & it was amazing. One of my favorite meals I’ve had in wb this year. Abbie was a fantastic waitress and all of the staff was super friendly. Will be back soon!
Had the best experience here. The team is so nice and friendly. Oysters are top tier.
The staff here are phenomenal. Best oysters so far 🦪🍋🍸
Josh was our server and he was amazing! Super personable and knowledgeable about the food items. We had oysters, the Farmers Market Salad, and a burger. Everything tasted great! We will definitely be back and ask for Josh!
Our server Josh was the best server i’ve ever had, he made sure to accommodate for my gluten free needs and went beyond to make sure our food and service was perfect! Thank you.
Awesome oysters
We were visiting friends a couple weeks ago and they took us here for lunch. First time that they had ever been here as well so no one knew what to expect. This place is an absolute home run! Everything from the atmosphere, staff and food are 10 out of 10. Everyone with us fell in love with this place and now it has become a regular place for us. Highly recommend and will be back soon.
Our dining experience was good, up until the entrees arrived. My dates, calabashket was hearty, however there was no trace of seasoning. The fish, oysters, and shrimp were well battered, but no seasoning in sight. The oysters were extremely fresh, and the crab biscuits were tasty.

We sampled the local oysters. Very good and reasonably priced. The other small plates and starters we tried were average. Most disappointing were that the tables and chairs were beyond sticky. This experience is best described as an upscale dive bar. That said, the selection of beers was very good and all the drink prices were well priced. Overall experience was Meh.
Great oysters and wonderful service! The food not so much. Shrimp tostados were covered in some sauce that was not great. The scallops were drowned in a creamy corn sauce. Very limited wine selection. But for drinks and oysters it is fun.
Very disappointed. Our second time here and our last. Totally booked a res for our anniversary based on their online menu. Got there and the menu was totally different. Asked if they could make a drink that was posted online and they said no. Several specials that were listed were also on the menu- for more money. They need to pull it together if they want to stay in business on WB. Sloppy.
Went to based on reviews so writing this to say do not go. There are so many good restaurants in Wilmington and this is not one. Oysters were small and soupy even in season and hard to find in fried oysters. Salad was just lettuce. Waste of money even though service was ok.
Our server made my partners birthday so special! I wish I remembered his name! We just moved to the area and will become regular guests because of his service! Thank you!
