    FAB-U-LOUS!!!! This restaurant never disappoints and I feel so fortunate to live nearby. Our server Luwanda (sp?) was a delight. She’s attentive and knowledgeable about the menu offerings and made certain our drinks were never empty. Everyone at our table enjoyed their food and said it was “perfect”. I particularly enjoyed my pulled pork sliders. It was a mouth full of flavors. The dishes I’ve had in the past have been flavorful too. The Oyster Rock is definitely a restaurant destination.

    Floriana is a must when visiting Wilmington. Chris made our experience incredible. We loved the pecan salad, the lasagna, and the shrimp and scallop risotto. Extensive wine selection and wonderful atmosphere. We will be back!

    After a long day of walking around me and my friend needed a quick meal. We decided on Tequilas Waterfront and we are so happy with our decision. Service is great, food is amazing and staff is friendly.

    The food here is fantastic, especially the brunch! I had the pleasure of meeting the owner and manager, who were both incredibly friendly, along with the rest of the staff. The atmosphere is inviting, and the prices are very reasonable.
