Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Wilmington

Great festive cocktails for the season! The menu has lots of variety. The skinny burger was perfect! Highly recommend this fine establishment.

We enjoyed the Feast of the Seven Fishes special menu. The first course was crispy fried oysters on an unbelievably delicious sauce. Chef Vittorio came to our table to describe each course, something we very much enjoyed. The food was, as always, delicious and beautifully presented.

Service was outstanding. Waitress was lovely and helpful, and when we were splitting dishes, they came out of the kitchen in separate plates, with lovely presentation. Beet salad was excellent, as was the burger. Wish there were more beers on tap, but the selection of local brews was great. Altogether a lovely evening and fine meal.

While we realize that this is a new venture after Covid, Chopps used to be much better. Gone are the servers who brought you coffee, tea and assorted beverages, making it a truly cafeteria style atmosphere. This may be what some people like but after the original Chopps, we were subjected to a less than stellar experience for brunch. The scrambled eggs were horrible. Coffee and tea are served in paper cups at a station. The omelet station was manned by one gentleman who was pleasant but really didn't know that you fold an omelet before presenting it. Fruits and waffles were good, as were the bacon, sausage and cereals. Hard to goof those things up. I don't believe we'll be going back to his version of Chopps unless we hear they have made some adjustments to their presentation.
