    Seabird in Wilmington, NC, offers a memorable dining experience with expertly prepared dishes. The swordfish schnitzel was perfectly cooked, while the yellowfin tuna bolognese and fried oysters romaine Caesar impressed with fresh, vibrant flavors. The oysters were exceptional, fresh and briny, making them a highlight of the meal. Though the meal was fantastic, I had hoped for a complimentary dessert to celebrate my wife’s birthday, as I marked it when making the reservation. Overall, Seabird is a top choice for an unforgettable meal.

    Excellent experience, just some minor issues such as the waiter not taking the menus once we ordered and not putting our wine in a cooler. Other than this, everything was great.

    We had dinner before going to a show at the Wilson Center. The staff were very mindful of our time and did so in a friendly and attentive manner. The food was delicious! The boys had burgers and said they were one of the best they’d ever had. The scallops were delicious, I would definitely order them next time! Overall a fantastic experience.
