7 Best American Restaurants near Wilmington

“We had breakfast here for the first time today. What a hidden gem! The food was delicious, ample portions and great prices. Our server was so friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back and want to try dinner next. Don’t hesitate trying it, you won’t be disappointed.“

“We dined in and we ordered food to go. I’ve never written a review on a restaurant before, but man is this place phenomenal. Everything from the appetizers, to the sides, the dips and the main courses were unbelievably tasty and homemade. If I could give it more than five stars, I would.“

“We stopped here while riding around and decided to visit white face. I think they can definitely upgrade the place a bit. I asked for a beer and the lady at the counter did not know how to pour it from the tap. Nice friendly person though. It was obvious that this was not something that she was used to doing. God bless her.“

“Surprisingly good food! We were impressed. Prices comparable to other resorts. Our server was good and attentive although hurried. Hostesses were maybe more committed to their own conversation than to customers. Looking at other reviews, I think going off-peak might be key here.“

“I was a walk-in on a busy evening but was seated quickly. Amazing service and fantastic food.“

“After eating here twice as a couple, we recently booked the Ice Jam Inn Restaurant for a small wedding reception of 17 people. We worked with Chef Zack to plan a menu that included a charcuterie board to start, family style appetizers for the table, plated salad and entree and family style desserts. Every bit of the meal was perfectly executed and the service was impeccable. You can see the attention to detail in everything that this team does. The farm to table ingredients are perfectly prepared by the kitchen staff. The service team's timing and attentiveness was exceptional. Chef Zack has an obvious penchant for bringing out the best in high quality ingredients, highlighting their natural flavors while elevating the dishes with creative combinations and excellent plating. Thanks again to the team there, and we will be back!“

“The best local baked goods! The blueberry cinnamon roll was the best I’ve ever had! Great texture and full of berries! They also have great locally produced beef jerky and beef sticks and many other locally produced goods. They sell house-made salads, soup, sandwiches,including gluten-free options. They have Speedy Earl’s Coffee in whole bean/ground and hot to-go too! So much food, drink and gift items in a small store! Worth checking out!
