    Sammy Club

    I've very mixed feeling about this place. Upon entering we saw it was seat yourself. We sat down and I noticed there were only 3 tables occupied at Noon. Not a good sign, but I thought ok they have only been open a few months. The table felt sticky and I heard another person mention it to the waitstaff which said its the cleaning product that makes it feel that way. Hummmm, maybe you should try a different product? The inside was different with the middle tables being raised with rope around it? Trying to look like a ship???? We both got the Seaside club.the bread was just plain white bread toasted, not a rustic cut bread as stated on the menu. It was ok, a decent club sandwich that came with decent fries which were not greasy. Overall opinion, ok food , decent prices. Just overall I felt like something was off, like was ok probably wouldn't come back. I like places that give me a good upbeat vibe, this was just not doing that. I hope they do well, and maybe in the summer we will come back if they have the outdoor patio open.

    Now in the former Waterman's Brewing restaurant, Sammy Sea's was alright. The decor is definitely different from before, with a raised up seating area in a nautical theme. Their drink menu is pretty limited (based on my experience). We never got to see what the beer options were, and they had four cocktails to choose from. Our waitress was nice, but seemed either new or a little flustered. We had to ask for a kids menu and also the drink menu. I really wanted the Monte Cristo, but they weren't willing to swap out the hash browns for fries, so I got the turkey cranberry and asked for it to be toasted. It was ok, but would have been better had they toasted the entire sandwich so the cream cheese would've warmed up. The French fries were delicious though.

    Great food!!!!! Awesome atmosphere, fairly new restaurant opened within a year ! You will not need lunch if you eat there for breakfast. Service was friendly it was a bit long to wait on food but it was Sunday in Wilmington at a good restaurant so there's always a wait and ITS WORTH EVERY SECOND !!!

    Sammy Sea's has been on my list of restaurants to try ever since they opened! I'm thankful that my fiancé and I were able to give it a try it on a rainy Sunday. I also want to touch on some of the themes mentioned by other reviewers: 1) Understand that Sammy Sea's is a new business. It is normal for a new business to work through kinks, figure out what works, and grow from feedback. Overall, we had a GREAT experience. 2) We did not have to seat ourselves. A nice hostess came to the stand and sat us promptly. We went around 10 AM on a Sunday (prime brunch time). Our server was also great! 3) The tables are not sticky because they are dirty. Our table was clean and I could see team members cleaning other tables. I'm not an expert in wood finishing, but it's something to do with that. It's not uncommon in restaurants. 4) The food was REALLY GOOD and very cost effective. Pictures for reference! I seriously want an entire plate full of the kielbasa.

    Unfortunately the online hype wasn't remotely worth it. As soon as you walk into the door you're hit with the strong smell of Fabuloso, which should've been the first warning. Waiting to sit wasn't awful, 25 minutes. But when we sat down the table was sticky, although that might be from the cleaner eating away at the table. The wait for the food, considering how small it is in there, was awful... Now onto the food, the food "looks" good. Well presented. But the flavor was awful... everything either tasted like grease or cheap quality ingredients. Monte Cristo wasn't remotely that... undercooked on top of that. Potatoes were straight grease, zero flavor. The only good thing was the pancake, which seemingly had cake mix in them. As a side note to the ambiance, the bathrooms were absolutely atrocious... disgusting is an understatement. Overall, not remotely worth it. I hate leaving bad reviews for newer restaurants, but if this place doesn't make drastic changes, it'll be closed within a year.

    Enjoy!

    If you are hungry and want to find a spot with great breakfast and lunch menus, this is the place !! You cannot finish an entire plate. Service and food is great.

    Holy Cow!!! This was a feast, killer food and a refreshing change of pace with great service I will be back again and again and again. Not to mention a relaxed cool feel.

We started off with the chips and trio dips: queso, salsa and guacamole! It was tasty! The chips are seasoned, salsa and queso were fire and guacamole was FRESH! Empanadas were next, and let me tell you..These mouthwatering empanadas were perfect! Nice and crispy on the outside and the filling was juicy and tasty! It was topped off with lettuce, tomato and sour cream. I added some of that salsa from trio dip and it was amazing! Carne asada burrito was so HUGE and that we weren't able to finish it! Had the perfect ratios and the meat was plentiful, tender and flavorful! If you're hungry and looking for a good meal, this burrito will definitely fill you up! 10/10 recommend! We also ordered the carne asada bowl. It is everything the burrito is minus the tortilla. It was equally delicious and super filling as well! We ordered the carne asada tacos which were also great! I would recommend the tacos over the burrito if you're hungry but don't want to get too full. For dessert we ordered the fried platanos and churros! Platanos are my favorite!! These were so good and the churros were AMAZING! Haven't had a churro in years and this definitely satisfied my craving for it! Thanks to the chef and staff for being patient and kind to us! If you're in the area and looking for a place to fill you up, Capricho is it! 10/10 recommend!

It's in the cargo district so well connected to other food and drink options as well. I ordered the brussel sprouts tacos with a side of fries. The food was made fresh and was very delicious. The brussel sprouts were well seasoned and cooked but not overdone. The tacos were generously filled and topped with cashew crema. The fries were hot and crispy. It was also a large serving so more for sharing with others. Service was great as well as they ensured the food was brought out to us once ready. Plenty of outdoor seating and parking near the restaurant.

I ended up getting the smash burger which tasted very fresh and had a delicious sauce as an added bonus. I also had the opportunity to try the Brussel sprouts which I would highly recommend! The person at the register was very friendly and the food came out quickly from the bar area. They had seating in the actual restaurant, but we opted to sit in the open seating area just outside which housed multiple TV screens and the bar for ease of access to entertainment. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a quick bite to eat or to sit and catch up with friends.
