**this review intended for the Cargo District location. One of the favorites when we visit Wilmington. In the Cargo District, where you can park in their lot or on the street. Some of the best food I've had in the city. A lot of different sandwiches and items to choose from with each sandwich crafted perfectly. Parmesan fries was 10/10 alone; plenty of cheese and seasoning, no soggy fries. Food comes out fairly quick after you order and plenty of seating whether table or bartops along the wall. Highly recommend.

This cheese based restaurant in Wilmington offers a few different types of foods including grilled cheese, sandwiches, and Philly cheese steaks all with different ingredients and flavors. The choices between different grilled cheeses and sandwiches were quite extensive. I opted for the Buffalo chicken grilled cheese which tasted phenomenal and paired very well with their special sauce. The restaurant is quite cool and offers generous indoor and outdoor seating. The woman working the register was kind and willing to provide a student discount with proof that we were students. Overall, I would highly recommend this local restaurant for anyone who is a grilled cheese lover or just looking for something new to try around Wilmington.

SOUTHERN CHARM so good

Mac Mama!
Jennifer H.

I had mixed feelings coming here around 8:30pm last night when they were scheduled to close at 9:00-I HATE being "those people". This place came highly recommended and the reviews looked amazing and would have preferred this more for lunch than dinner but for what I will say are reasons beyond my control we came here at 8:30pm on a Friday night while visiting the area. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to visit! The Mac Mama sandwich was amazing!!! I also had a bite of the Asian fries which I thought were pretty good too. The customer service was great and closing crew were super sweet! We sat outside but the atmosphere was simple, chill vibe. I snapped a photo of a sign in the bathroom that made me chuckle! Thank you for a good meal that was reasonably priced!

Figgy Smalls

Stopped by Cheesesmith and tried the Figgy Smalls grilled cheese along with the parmesan fries. The Figgy Smalls was absolutely delicious. The combo of creamy goat cheese, sweet fig jam, caramelized onions, and fresh arugula was perfectly balanced. It had that sweet-and-savory mix that just works. The parmesan fries were okay, but honestly, the grilled cheese is the real star here. You come to Cheesesmith for the sandwiches, and they definitely deliver

SOUTHERN CHARM

Been in Wilmington for a little over a year now, found this place today and wasn't sure what to expect. But the food is absolutely amazing!! Best grilled cheese I've had in a long time! They have a lot to choose from (I got the southern charm) and everyone there was very nice and helpful!

Sandwiches and fries
Scott B.

This was our first time here and we've heard good things about it. We ordered the Buffalo Baby, Southern Charm, and Parmesan fries. All tasted great but the Southern Charm was lacking both cheese and pork, causing the pickled onions to take over. That was disappointing. We'll probably be back but I would try something different and say something if my sandwich is lacking the next go around.

Absolutely HORRIBLE. The Cheesesteak was so gross. Meat was full of gristle and completely inedible. Threw it away. Will never return.

Visiting Wilmington and saw a post about this restaurant on Instagram that was rated 9.5 out of 10…read more Is was very slow at 11 and service was quick and friendly. It's a very laid back place with lots of tables and a party room.. yes it has a pinball table. The food came quickly and was hot. I had the Philly Cheesesteak Hoagie and my partner had the ham, turkey and cheese grinder. We also had some wedge cut fries that are extra. The sandwiches were good, but weren't close to a 9.5. The meat was almost hamburger consistency and the cheese seemed to come out of a can. It was edible, but would disappoint if you wanted a realistic Philly steak and cheese. The grinder had a but with all the meat laying on top with toppings underneath. It was a knife and fork type of sandwich. It was worth trying but not sure if we'll return.

Closed captioned tvs playing MLB and I'm able to watch the expeditor get the food out, but place a close eye on orders as they go out. I love this because she is on point and I even heard her say to the kitchen, "Guys, this cheesesteak has been sitting too long for me! Re-Fire!! My type of lady and I love how they made the quick re-fire. Everyone seems happy from the staff to the customers! I found this place on YELP and while I'm drinking a few beers, I already know what I am going to order--Large Garden salad, no tomatoes or cucumbers, and add a crab cake! The crab cakes that I've have seen coming out the kitchen look authentic and not made with fillers! I'm excited! They have pickle spears so you already know that I need at least 4. I'm a happy camper hanging out at the bar! I'm here for a week but it's already looking like I'll be back before I leave! Great job Two Guys!! Only question is: Who are these two guys with this concept?!? Lol. Andddd, it's getting crowded in here! It's 6:45p on a Sunday! I picked a great spot. Thanks YELP!

Finally! After many years, we made it back to Copper Penny! On our return trip from Southport we…read morestopped in downtown to grab a bite before heading home. We started walking around and my wonderful wife suggested Copper Penny. Absolutely! There was a short wait for a table, but we didn't mind. The inside is almost like we remember it. We did notice the menu is a lot smaller. The last time we dined here was around ten years ago. Definitely plenty of options. We went with the onion ring appetizer, Cobb salad, and the BBQ Burger. The atmosphere of Copper Penny is the same. Definitely missed this place. After a short wait our food was brought out. Everything was delicious.

Only like 9 tables so plan accordingly or you will have to wait awhile. Go during off peak hours to ensure a short wait time. Now the food...... 1. Cheese Steak Egg Rolls served w/chipotle ranch......Amazing!!!! Best we have ever had. 2. 109 Chestnut Chicken Sandwich had an amazing balance of ingredients that would make your mouth water. Very good and the fries as well. 3. Hot Roasted Pork Sandwich was very bland and had an excessive amount of spinach. Even the Au Jus couldn't rescue this sandwich. 4. The famous onion rings. Well they must of ran out of seasoning because these were more flour than flavor. Very doughy with no spices. Not worth the $9 * The alcohol mix drinks are pretty good. Definitely taste the flavor of each. Will give you a good kick.
