Food Scene

Casual local favorite located a 5 minute walk away in the Castle Street Antiques district. The grilled pimento cheese/tomato/carmelized onion sandwich is to die for. Great southern food like mom would make and nice people.

Best fresh -not fried seafood in town. Right by Wrightsville Beach. This is a very small place. You would NOT want to go at 7 on a Friday night in the summer. Go early or late, or for brunch. Always a fresh seafood plus Panamanian-style fresh food.

There are several PTs in Wilmington. Local restaurant, terrific burgers and fries. None of their food items are frozen. We suggest 17th St. location because our friend Joe owns it and he is super nice!
