Seabird

My partner and I went here this past Monday for happy hour oysters (only on Mondays 5-6pm at the bar). Oysters were fantastic- local, salty, delicious; we couldn't believe they were a $1 a piece! We also had the tuna crudo, pork ribs and clam linguine and everything was chef's kiss- absolutely delightful! Drinks were also great, restaurant is beautiful and staff friendly! We will definitely be back!

Take my money… If you live in NC and haven’t been here, you’re not living your life right. The vibe, the service, the food… everything checks all the boxes. Delicious, creative dishes, attention to detail, and a true commitment to the concept of local seafood. One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. As a solo diner, the smaller, personalized portions they offered absolutely made my trip and shaped how I felt about the town, even though I was only there briefly.

I cannot possibly say enough amazing things about our dining experience at Seabird last night! I made a reservation online for 4 people. One friend was unable to join, so it ended up being three of us celebrating my engagement. When we arrived at our table, there was a congratulations note and an origami swam waiting for us- so sweet! Our server, Erin, was the best server I have ever had the pleasure of knowing- from start to finish, she checked on us frequently, was so kind and friendly that we all felt the warm fuzzies, knew the wine menu in and out (one of my group is a wine professional), and gave the most incredible descriptions of the food options that we all ended up overordering and enjoying everything! Food run down- - Shellem Wild Mussels- Unfortunately I was not able to try these as I’m allergic to an ingredient in them. My friend ordered them and devoured them! She gave a 5 star rating! - Fresno Chili Prok Ribs- delicious! I’m a spice wimp so they were a little hot for my taste, and my friend loved them! - Roasted Carrot Salad- what a treat! This salad had the sweetness from the carrots and carrot puree combined with a light dressing and thinly sliced limes. It was an incredible salad! - Smoked Catfish and Oyster Pie- we weren’t sure what to expect with this dish. It came in a bowl like a soup and had a baked topping on it almost like a pita/cheese layer. It was fantastic! It also came with herbs you could shred and add to it. - Shellem oysters- locally farmed, briney, so fresh! This comes with two different hot sauces, cocktail sauce, and another sauce along with lemons. - Eastern Cioppino- one friend is gluten-free and dairy-free. This dish was able to be made perfectly for her! She said this is her favorite dish to order, and our waitress said it’s the one she eats the most as well. Delicious! - We also had two cheese plates- a gouda and a blue cheese- that were delicious and great portions! - Then at the end, to celebrate my engagement, I had a scoop of lemon poppyseed ice cream! - Throughout our meal we also had a number of different glasses of wines. We were able to taste each one first, and Erin was amazing about splitting the glasses- we didn’t all want full glasses of wine, and you can’t order a half glass, so we would order a glass and be served two half glasses to share. Brilliant! Honestly, Seabird is probably the best dining experience in Wilmington. They also keep notes about what food and drink you enjoy so that when you return, the team can suggest items you may really like and keep track of things like allergies. The manager frequently checked on every table as well, and the entire team worked together seamlessly to ensure we had everything we needed at all times. We never felt rushed and were able to enjoy every minute of our dining experience.

Absolutely one of our most favorite restaurants of all time. Excellent expertly prepared entrees and small plates. Service is equally top notch. Reservations highly recommended. We arrived without reservations but were fortunate to be seated at the chefs table (long bar). We decided to try several small plates instead of having an entree. The Sous Chef helped us narrow down our choices. Best Ceasar Salad we have ever had. The Tuna Crudo melted in our mouths. All of it amazing. The Sous Chef, Restaurant Manager, wait staff, and team worked attentive to every detail and culinary delight while truly making our dining experience extraordinary.

Brunch was excellent. We really enjoyed both the cobia sandwich and the crab Benedict. The coffee was excellent and the service was top notch. It seems like thought was put into every element of each item. The use of fresh herbs made a huge difference and was used in almost every dish Seabird is worth a visit.
