    Tried On Thyme for the first time and it did not disappoint! The place was buzzing and packed, but they got us a table pretty quickly. Shoutout to the hostess for being so kind and helpful--she set a great tone for a bright, lovely vibe. For a packed house, the kitchen was on top of it. Our food arrived quickly and tasted great. The salmon bites were packed with flavor and the shrimp were a great size. My only complaint? No refills on drinks since they come from a can. Minor detail, but worth noting. Overall, a great experience and I'll definitely be visiting again!

    As a native of Wilmington, NC it is wonderful to find a restaurant that I can patronize when I return home. The atmosphere is lively and well decorated. The staff was friendly and welcoming. We wait 15 minutes for a table on a busy Friday night, which we were notified of before adding our name to the list. The food was delicious and cooked to order. My nephew loved the cheesesteak egg rolls and the fried shrimp were amazing. The chicken sandwich and cheese were large portions and we could not eat it all. But my brother-in-law did eat his entire poor boy (lol). I will be back the next time I come home.

    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.

    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!

    Came in on a friday around 5pm with my mom. Wasn't too busy thankfully and got a seat indoors. We had Destiny as our waitress and she was awesome. We got the philly egg rolls and they were amazing and so flavorful. I ended up getting the fried cajun po boy and fries and i had no complaints. My mom got the fish basket and she liked it just wishes they had homemade cocktail and tartar sauce. I would recommend this to anyone in the area!

    Fried fish and shrimp.

    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.

    Very attentive staff and the food was amazing. One of the best meals we had on our trip. The vibes of the restaurant are great too with hip decor and great music.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    The service was subpar and calling may not get a response but the food was pretty good. I would definitely order ahead for food.

    Do they serve alcohol/mixed drinks?

    I don't believe so. They only had a cooler with soda and water

    A great spot for Mexican/Asian fusion! Very diverse food options including vegetarian and vegan…read moreoptions. 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.

    This taco/burger restaurant in the cargo district of Wilmington has the pleasurable selection…read morebetween American and Mexican foods allowing you the option between one, the other, or both with your purchase. 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.
