Amazing service and the food is out of this planet definitely worth it and the best spot I went this week

Been wanting to come here for a long time , been following them on tik tok for quite some time and we finally made, and they understood the assignment . I love the deco, very inviting vibes, good music and available seating. They had plenty of seating to choose from and a full bar. My son ordered a non alcoholic margarita and it was really good, I had a strawberry kool aid and it was sweet but not too sweet. The Philly cheesesteak eggs and OMG! The Philly cheesesteak egg rolls were packed with flavor, they were juicy and cooked perfectly. My son orders a shrimp burger and it was fantastic I orders a burger it was big and flavorful. The price was good for the amount of food you got! Service was awesome and when in Wilmington again, we'll be back! read more

I was visiting Wilmington and my friend took me to this place saying it was good so i was expecting a good food, however my experience was not good at all, the wait time to be seated was about 20 minutes which is not bad, once we were inside and placed our order took over 30 minutes to arrive which i think it was excessive i got the the catch of the day I was was so hungry but unfortunately food was not good at all, rice was okay I think needs more flavor and was crispy which means was seating on a heated element before it was served, salmon was okay not bad but not the best and broccoli was the worse very very salty to the point that you could not eat it, i asked for another side of broccoli but i knew it would not arrive soon i ended up leaving before i got my side. My friend got a fish sandwich which i tried and it was good and the Okra as well. Unfortunately i can rate them more than two stars due to the wait time and the broccoli. As always this is my personal opinion. read more

On Thyme was a great little adventure. Awesome, fried shrimp fish and mushrooms. None of the fried foods sat under a heat lamp. Piping hot direct from the deep fryer. With jazz music as our background a great place to enjoy a mid day lunch hour. You walk in shown a seat and handed a plastic coat short menu, a second menu has meal deals of the day. You then go to the cashier and place your order and pay. My wife and I split the fish, shrimp and fries plate. With fried mushrooms as an appetizer. All the food was served hot from the deep fryer. No, heat lamps used here. They do not have cocktail sauce, but the thyme sauce served with the fried fish and shrimp did not disappoint. It really worked with the dip used on the fried foods. The ranch worked as well with the fried mushrooms. Would return when visiting the area again. read more

Finally made it to the viral restaurant in Wilmington - On Thyme. And it was, well - right on time. I had to get it to go because I was on the road but the ambiance is upbeat and soulful with good music and beautiful murals throughout. There's a wall of black greats behind the bar that's stunning. There's indoor and out door seating and a small stage with couches and tables outside. Now to the food - I got the viral Philly steak egg rolls. They were huge and lasted for 3 days. They were juicy and filled with meat and cheese. You get 6 and they are really filling. Definitely enough for 2 to share. I also had the shrimp and teriyaki style wings that came with fries. All the food was good and hot. I will definitely be making a return trip when I'm in the area. Service was great as well. The order took a minute but it's made to order so that takes time. This place stays busy so get there early. So glad I gave it a try and can't wait to try other menu items. On Thyme is right on time. read more

Southern, soul, comfort food. The egg rolls are a MUST! The best we've ever had! The shrimp burger was like a po-boy with delicious, golden fried shrimp. And the fried fish was flaky + crispy. The vibe here is chill with a mixture of Hip+Hop and R&B playing in the background. Ohhh...lemme not leave out the SWEET tea.... perfect for these southern dishes. read more

After having read so many rave reviews on the food, we expected it to be great, and it was. The Shrimp and Fish basket was perfectly prepared and huge! The Cajun Shrimp Po Boy was well seasoned with a generous amount of shrimp. What we didn't expect was the great bar service. Special shout out to Jevaughn - friendliest and most competent bartender we've had in a long time. Go there. You won't be disappointed! read more

This place was amazing! We had the seafood egg rolls, shrimp basket, and wings and it was all delicious. The wings were the best that I've ever had! The whole vibe in the restaurant is amazing as well. Good music and good food. read more

Food was very good, however the queso fries were missing the crab and queso. The shrimp was fantastic and the atmosphere was wonderful with great service. We waited a little longer than expected, around 30 minutes. The prices were reasonable and overall it was a fun way to spend a Friday night. read more

Did take out...staff super helpful. Wings with the thyme sauce insane! Regular hot was very good. Wings are naked but cooked PERFECTLY! Again can't stress how nice the person was that took my order and didn't call out my name but found me in the crowded room. Place gets packed! Also had the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls that were a good addition!! Strongly recommend. read more

This was absolutely the best food we had on vacation. Our family of 4 each got something different and we ordered the philly egg rolls as an appetizer - EVERYTHING was top quality. Service was great (Thanks Jazz!) We will most definitely return on our next trip to Wilmington. read more

Hell yeah I recommend On Thyme! Came here with my boyfriend on a Friday night - ordered the egg rolls and wings. I hadn't had a bone-in wing in years (it's a mental thing), but man did I eat those up. We loved it so much we DoorDashed like 3 separate orders the following day. I would say bone in is better than boneless but both are great. You cannot go wrong with any flavor. All the employees are kind, attentive, quick, and hard working. They serve a crowd and they do it quickly while also doing it right and making sure customers are happy. Parking available on the street. Looks like they're redoing the outside area for more future seating. Inside is small and tight but it makes it that much more enjoyable. I cannot wait to go back. Oh, and if you don't follow them on Instagram, you need to do that too!! read more

The food and service was great! Loved the okra. It was the first time I had it and it wasn't over fried! Everything was cooked to perfection. We we're all "happy campers" read more

This place was highly recommended for me to try out and I finally went good energy environment, friendly staff and the owner Corey down to earth. I would say get any thing on the menu but my favorite item was and is the OMG fish sandwich it's deep fried fish topped with Cole slaw, famous thyme sauce, crispy pickles with a toasted brioche bun. read more

Let me start with I love supporting locally owned businesses that show Diversity. Me and my wife decided to try the establishment from food critics that showed praise for the restaurant. We have just left Carolina beach so this was a perfect way to end the trip. Got there around 6:30pm, not as busy and decided to sit at the bar. Great lighting and entertainment systems. We ordered the Shrimp Burger and the Fire grill shrimp basket. It took an hour for our food to arrive while customers who got there after us received theirs, don't know how to feel about that.. just didn't sit right with us knowing that the restaurant is Minority owned. A perpetuation of how people of color are treated in a restaurant setting. read more

Friendly staff and delicious food. I ordered the OMG Fish Sandwich with a side salad. While the sandwich was a little light on coleslaw, the fried fish was well seasoned and freshly prepared. The salad was larger than I expected with a nice mix of greens and ripe tomatoes. Space was a little noisy, but I enjoyed the music. read more

Great neighborhood cafe, with amazing tastes and a kitchen with tons of surprises, all of them good. Lots of seating in and out on pleasant days but enough inside seating on rainy days. A host seats you and then you order and pay at the counter. Servers then deliver to you so once you order just set back and relax. There are daily specials but I would urge you to try the Cajun shrimp po-boy. It has layers of flavor down to the fresh shrimp. The bread is grilled and holds up well to the shrimp, special sauce, lettuce and tomato. read more

Delicious! The wait can be long depending on what time you go but that's only bc this place is so good. Well worth the wait each time I went. The menu isn't huge and your food gets to you hot and fresh every time. Got the it takes two app and the fish sandwich. One of the best meals I've had in ILM so far. Chill, casual ambiance. read more

I saw a couple of YouTube videos and Instagram posts about this restaurant so I thought that I would try it out. The food was absolutely amazing. I really enjoyed the egg rolls and the omg fish sandwich. The flavors were definitely there! My husband and I also met the owner. He was really nice and took the time to come and speak with us. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if ever you are in the Wilmington area. read more

Tried On Thyme today and it did not disappoint! I got the fried shrimp and wings with fries and oh my goodness the food was delicious. Even picking up my food as a takeout order and driving it 20 mins home the fries were still crispy, the wings were cooked perfectly, and my favorite was the shrimp with the best dipping sauce ever. Also the staff were all so so nice and on top of everything. Thank you On Thyme for over delivering on my expectations. read more

Hannah @ the bar was awesome. I came in for Togo food but had a martini while waiting at the bar. She handled the outdoor customers & indoor customers with pleasure & ease. Was recommended this place for food before we left town, glad I stopped in! There's nothing like some delicious fried fish & chicken! Place was a 10/10 vibe & we def be back! read more

We drove an hour to visit this location, based on hilarious IG posts. I'm glad we did, as it was a pleasant experience. It's a smaller space than I expected, and it was too cold to sit outside. I understand that they've expanded since we visited. The food met all of our expectations. We had the sampler, wings, and the chicken sandwich. Everything was tasty and well-seasoned. I love the personalized tables and ambiance. It was late, within an hour of closing, and people were still coming in, but they did not rush them. Staff told the customers what was still available and seated them as though they were family. I would definitely recommend. read more

I value customer service at an all high time and let me tell you OTR's handles business. From the cashier (Hannah) to the staff helping, greeting and showing people what and how they operate when it was their 1st time I appreciate it! It does not go unnoticed, not let's get to the food I put this on my mamma, I'm happy this establishment isn't where we I've as I would be there weekly or maybe daily.... We ordered a It Takes Teo because I really wanted to try the egg rolls, however really wanted some wings and wanted to check out the shrimp. I definitely should have just ordered the platter but being a Louisiana and having a Shrimp Po-boy I had too. Both the It Takes Two and Shrimp Po-Boy was delish, I would definitely come back however I think I would preferred to just order wings as that Honey Hot sauce was legit! My daughter ordered the Chicken sandwich and she said it was delish. The vibe is laid back with some early 2000's music playing in the back ground making you nod your head as in man I haven't heard this song in years, definitely will be bringing the entire family back 10/10 worth the drive! read more

I ordered a cheeseburger and fried okra. It was very reasonable and I was excited to try it. I cannot even begin to tell you how delicious the burger was. The one I got was just a regular cheeseburger, too (not even a fancy one). The okra was also great. Very impressed! read more

Couldn't recommend enough! Husband and I had the fish and shrimp basket, surf and turf burger. Perfectly fried shrimp- I'd eat bucket loads of just the shrimp it's that good. I love my tartar sauce with fried flounder, however I'd ditch it for their house sauce. Service is great, quick, friendly. Atmosphere is energetic and love that it's grab a menu order and sit wherever. read more

Service was fine, it's a loud environment for sure, we got the Philly egg rolls which were huge they were okay but they just come in a basket with no plates so the filling ends up everywhere. My son's burger was a 4, the rolls were a 3, the lemon pepper wings with shrimp were a 4. read more

The flavor of the castle burger was good. But... Both patties were small (close to 2.5 inches in width) which meant they were in the center of the bun. So you end up having several bites before you reach the meat (a bunwhich). There wasn't much ventilation so we came out smelling like fried food. The music was great but loud so it's hard to have a conversation. read more

Food is incredible. Corey scott works it. Great vibe, fresh food and very pleasant and caring folks work there. Eat and be well. ! read more

Discovered this treat of a restaurant while on a college tour of UNCW with my son. It was wonderful and can't wait to visit again! Everyone was so friendly from the minute we walked in until we left. The fried fish and shrimp was amazing! As were the hush puppies and their special sauce. YUM! Don't forget the banana pudding in the jar! Stellar! I really appreciated the interior design of the space too! Someone did a GREAT job designing! 10/10 across the board! read more

I can't fault this place on anything, so it gets a 5. They have a good sanitation rating, 97.5, friendly employees, good prices, and really, really tasty food!! Their outdoor area is the place to eat! It's huge for this area of town, and they have fans everywhere to help with the heat and the flies. The inside is small and dark, but it's fine. The hot honey chicken sandwich was so damn good! I know it's going to be one I crave. The flavor was spot on, the breading delicious, and it was cooked perfectly! The fish sandwich also had a great breading and flavor. It's a good thing this place isn't too close to me because I'd be there often. read more

Visiting from Atlanta and i wish they had this there! Food was amazing! Everything was great. Favorites were the egg rolls, hot lemon wings, and surprisingly the hush puppies were amazing. Service was fast and food came out quickly. We got there at a good time because when we were leaving the line started to form because as of now there isn't a lot of seating but they expanding with an outdoor area which is going to be nice. The overall vibe of the restaurant is what this is all about. Really enjoyed everything. Looking forward to coming back to trying some more things on the menu! read more

Spot on previous reviews. Great fried whiting fish sandwich. Brioche bun complemented it perfectly. My wife got the smash burger and thought it rivaled among the best in Wilmington. Services was quite attentive and several even waived goodbye upon leaving. Would be 5-star if only they had beer to go with the lunch. Will absolutely return. read more

Let me start with walking in- the playlist today is top tier. I couldn't sit still the entire meal. The service- friendly, helpful, TOP TIER! The food- yall. Yall. No adequate words yet, I'll update as they come. Tried the Philly Egg Rolls- huge, hand rolled, INCREDIBLE, Loaded Seafood Fries- wow wow wow. My sister got the Fried Fish & Shrimp and reports it was magnificent. Debating coming back for supper with more people. Go eat here. The vibes and the food are UNMATCHED. read more

Delicious! The food was made fresh to order, and delivered steaming. I had the shrimp po-boy. My husband had the boneless buffalo wings. Both were really good, but the jewel in their crown was definitely the oxtail egg rolls. They were mouthwateringly flavorful and crispy. Don't get over eager. Let them sit for a moment. The roof of your mouth will thank you. We were there at lunch on a Thursday. It was definitely the place to be. They were busy! Service was excellent though. Even with a crowded line at the counter and to go orders being picked up constantly, the staff still made time to circulate through to check on the customers. We had a great experience. 10 out of 10, highly recommend. read more
