    So many options now in the Wilmington area that I was a bit overwhelmed. Finally settled on Ceviche's. This is a small place closer to the beach. Brightly colored and a great deck area. Nice bar area where I was able to snag high top. Plenty of activity and if I were much later I would probably not gotten in without reservations so safe bet if after 6:30 get a reservation. Lots of energy and fun environments as there was a birthday party in one corner and a girls night type thing in another. After seeing the specials I knew the scallop special was for me. Amazing. Nice size scallops properly prepared. The rice and veggies were covered with a drizzle that was simply delicious. Cleaned the plate. All I wanted so no desert. The 1888 drink is their version of an old fashioned but uses rum. Who knew? Apparently they did. Quite good. Service was very attentive and did a great job. The food came out super quick also. Great experience.

    Ceviche's is every bit as charming and the food equally as delicious as when we first visited five years ago. Tonight we had the yucca frites and coconut shrimp tapas. My husband ordered arroz con pollo, and I had the frijoles y arroz. The portion was very generous - I have rice and beans for lunch tomorrow. We ordered the Spanish beignets to go, and they were fantastic. They come with berry compote. The service was wonderful, but it was very busy on a Thursday night! The bar stayed busy throughout our entire dinner.

    Wow! What a great experience. I recommend getting reservations for dinner. I also recommend going with friends who like to share so that you can try EVERYTHING! Our table of four got apps and meals and shared it all. I'm not even a huge seafood lover and it was all so delicious.

    This was our first time at Ceviche's. We joined some friends who have been here before. We started with drinks and the ceviche sampler - SO GOOD! I've never had ceviche before and was slightly hesitant (not a fan of fishy tasting things) and this was DELISH! I loved every bite including the scallops - which I don't normally like. I then had the coconut shrimp and beef empanadas. Both were excellent! Hubs had the special (pork belly & scallops) which was also just perfect! Service was prompt and allowed us time to chat with friends, and yet continued to check back in along the way. We will be back for sure! Also - the parking lot is small, so carpool when you can. They have great seating inside and out but reservations are suggested. The restaurant is just beautiful inside and out and everyone was so kind.

    Blackened scallops and pork belly with asparagus and cilantro mashed potatoes. Side of curry aioli.

    Amazing spot! Would 100% add to the list of "must visit" places near Wilmington. Small place with a great ambience and very friendly service. HUGE shout out to the bartender Natalie who is so friendly and pleasant to talk to. She was amazing! We ordered the sangria and watermelon mojito to start- both fantastic and the mojito wasn't too sweet. We then ordered the niña ceviche and blackened scallops with pork belly dish. The real star was the scallops and pork belly dish. Amazing combination of flavors and each part of the dish was cooked perfectly. Will definitely be back and recommend to everyone coming to the area.

    Jerk Shrimp Skewers  sooo good!

    This is a family favorite for us. We came here all of the time before having our daughter, and we still love coming and bringing her. The food is so fresh and the flavors are incredible. The service team is knowledgeable and friendly. Whether you are snuggled up at the fun bar or seated out in the gorgeous dining room, it's a fun place to eat and hang out. Favorite drink: the pain killer Our Go-to food order: the jerk shrimp skewers and whatever the fish special is for the day and share!

    Really beautiful restaurant that's close to Wrightsville Beach. They have a bar section and a dining section. We ate in the dining section. We got the guacamole trio. I thoroughly loved the butternut squash version. The others were good as well but lacked a little seasoning. I ordered the salsa as well and that added the extra seasoning I was looking for when I combined them. I ordered the Arroz con Pollo. The chicken and rice was very well seasoned but the slaw just tasted like raw cabbage. I mixed it with the guacamole and salsa which made for a great dressing. My husband ordered a chicken empanada and brussel sprouts. He said both were really good. The staff were nice and the courses were spaced out well. We would highly recommend

    Ropa Vieja

    Came here for the first time and had such a lovely experience. The restaurant is so unique and nice! The outdoor and indoor design is great, the service is amazing and so kind, and the food is even better! Started off with the Salsa Fresca and chips, which was SO good! Then for my entree, I got the Ropa Vieja, which was 10/10! The portion sizes were great and I even had some leftovers for later. Highly recommend this spot and will absolutely return back soon!

    Excellent Panamanian menu. All four of us enjoyed our meals. Great staff provided Excellent personal service. Great ambiance .

    Reservations recommended this place gets packed, but definitely still has wait to be seating by the bar or at the bar and outside. The place is a small house with lots of hidden table areas to seat. We tried the ceviche sampler, empanadas with goat cheese, coconut shrimp, sancocho and all the desserts. I recommend sticking the original ceviche the others just not my pállate since I don't enjoy sweet with my citrus. The empanadas were good and the sancocho soup was good.

We discovered this time that the upstairs has a great view of the ocean!

I saw so many tik toks about this place so I drove a little over two hours to visit and was surprised that it didn't look as good as it presented online. Starting off, I walked in and wasn't greeted at all by the host who I kindly asked to help me locate the restroom. When I came back from the bathroom, I sat at the bar waiting on my boyfriend to park his car to join me. As I sat at the bar, the bartender completely ignored me and didn't offer me a water or anything else which I had to request. My boyfriend came inside the restaurant after a very sweet, skinny Caucasian girl with long hair with a pony tail assisted him with parking (we're not from this area but come every year for the past 3 years). This lady was the only reason why we even decided to place an order at this restaurant. As we ordered our food, my boyfriend reassured me he would be more comfortable knowing I had more space being seated at a table. We requested to be sat at a table after placing an order at the bar. Once seated, I spotted a orange dot in my water (that I had to request) and as we were being seated, we requested a booth near the window and were informed there was a reservation for that specific booth although the entire restaurant was practically empty. Not only that but the host didn't wait until we were seated to allow us to finish our order, we made adjustments to the order we placed at the bar AT THE HOST STAND. Never have I been to a restaurant where the you make adjustments to your order at the host stand, he could've waited until we were seated to make sure our order was correctly placed while grabbing us both a water but neither the host or bartender did that. Overall, while visiting, I had to ask a series of questions that could've been avoided if I had just been acknowledged and given the basic decency of someone who works in a hospitality industry. Never have I had to sit down at a bar and request to be served or any restaurant in general. Other than that, the restroom was extremely uncleanly. The staff was passive aggressive and the server who took our order was practically whispering under his breath after I had already informed him I have a hearing impairment. This is the last place on the entirety of east coast I'd recommend you to eat. I'd suggest going to McDonald's before recommending this place- genuinely. Please bring Guy Fiery back, the menu was also overpriced for basic food items and we eat everywhere from dive bars to top scale expensive five course and Michelin star dinners... never again.

We started with an appetizer we have not had before and we really enjoyed it. Get the Crab dip. You get a hot, bubbly dish of the dip with some fried pita chips. Get some bread at the table too, so you can enjoy the dip if you run out of chips. My husband loved it so much he ate it plain. We got some excellent entrees this time. We had the Figure 8 stuffed flounder. Instead of the green beans and risotto, he got risotto cakes and sautéed spinach. Risotto cakes are really good. Nice and crispy and so tasty. We also had the lemon pepper scallops with risotto cakes and asparagus. We really enjoyed everything and our server was so nice. I didn't take a pic but I also had the handcrafted lemonade which is delicious. Unfortunately no room for dessert, but they have some yummy selections to try.
