Sadly, I have to give one star. For many years this was our "go to" spot. I usually got the chipped beef and potatoes. This time it was inedible. The cream for the chipped beef had split; it was an oily, grainy mess; the bread was so lightly toasted (if it was toasted at all) it just became a doughy glob. No seasoning on anything. No salt, no pepper. And another minor point, the ketchup is an off brand, not Hunts or Heinz, poured of of the bottle like tomato juice. I ate, probably 2 or 3 bites of any of it. My friend took it home for her dog. A literal doggie bag. Such a sad, sad decline. I wonder it it has changed management? I didn't see any of the usual waitstaff. read more

This quaint, little diner (open 24 hours and has a robust menu) is what everyone should be looking for. The waitress was super friendly, the food was all delicious, and they informed me that they're not open only for 12 hours out of the entire week; Sunday night at 8 to Monday morning at 8. I wanted to sample everything, however, I chose to be wise and had a lunch special that will serve as an additional lunch the next day. I had the Fried Flounder sandwich and my son had the Chicken Finger entree. Both came with s choice if soup or salad. We chose the chicken and bowtie pasta soup. It was delicious, hot, and straight comforting. Yum! I had the fried flounder. The tartar sauce was too bland. However, the fish was fried perfectly, went well on the soft, long roll, and the fries were amazing! My son's chicken fingers seemed good too. Instead of having fries and a side, he ordered a double order of fries. Great flexibility and that's what you need in a restaurant to survive! Additionally, my son had a lunch, dinner for tonight, and (no lie) a snack for tomorrow. His plate was enormous, as you can see in my picture. Lastly, his entrée came with a choice of pudding, ice cream, or bread pudding. We chose chocolate pudding. We brought that home to my daughter. He got the strawberry shortcake, which I didn't have time to take a picture of because, when I was using the bathroom, he devoured it all. My son is picky (af) when it comes to food but he inhaled half of it and he said he was full prior to ordering it. You do the math. Wilmington, Diner, I highly recommend paying them a visit. I can't wait to go back for one of those delicious sticky buns or corn muffins I saw on the way out! read more

Wow, we were definitely impressed with the Wilmington Diner. Their menu is extensive and very reasonably priced. It was a gorgeous day out, and the air was warm, so we opted for something crisp and cool. The spinach salad, with egg, mushrooms, tomatoes, grilled chicken and topped with cheddar was so delicious. We paid $13.00 and it was with every penny. We brought left-overs home for another meal. The restaurant was clean, the young girls were accommodating. They brought us out a container for the left overs and a plastic bag, which was so sweet and free of charge, however, we don't use plastic anymore so we just carried it out to the Carr. We definitely will be back soon for another meal. Please don't be shy, come visit your favorite restaurant and enjoy your local community. read more

The food was great, the Pancakes were amazing, and the bacon was also delicious, there was too much frosting on the carrot cake, but otherwise still good, the service was excellent! It was very quiet barely anybody in restaurant at 9/19 PM best time on a Friday night is to go between 9 o'clock and 9:20 PM, the food came out in under 10 minutes! Recommended to come here again! And a nice place to come with the family! Our server was very nice! read more

I drove all the way here because it says theyre open 24/7 and they are closed at 10pm. Looks like the place shut down

Love this place. I love that it's 24hrs. I love the breakfast food as well as the staff. Totally recommend this diner.

This place was surprisingly good! Ashley our waitress was very attentive, nice and funny. We had breakfast. The breakfast burrito with fruit and scrapple and eggs. Breakfast burrito was more like a quesadilla but still hot and tasty. Salsa was good and fruit was fresh. Toast is very good. Not too thin. Eggs were cooked perfectly. The best I've seen in a while. Home fries were well cooked and plentiful. Scrapple was the best. Highly recommend. read more

The Wilmington Diner is under new management but has retained many experienced staff. The food and service were both very good when we visited and enjoyed the Friday crab cake special, which included two large crab cakes on macaroni and cheese with a side of stewed tomatoes. This meal includes soup or salad and a choice of several desserts (the diner-made bread pudding is my favorite!) The decor has been updated and offers diners a choice of tables or booths. The lamps above the booths are pretty cool looking and provide a comfortable level of lighting. I've been there for lunch and dinner and enjoyed each visit. Looking forward to many more meals there with family and friends. read more

Open late, clean, delish chicken and fries. A little bit of a wait to get seated but it was around midnight.

TERRIBLE XMAS FOOD, got it to go was working triple nursing shift. Was totally disgustingTurkey was sliced compressed turkey, like lunch meat. Yams pulled out if can in a chunk plopped on plate. Yellow pasty canned gravy. Ham not fresh, 5" breakfast slices I get from Acme. Asked for steak medium rare, was well done no choice because it was only 1/8" thick. $80. with tip. I noticed only 4 people at table where old Marsh Diner was packed on holiday's read more

Service was very good, however the salad that I ordered was huge which would have been fine, because I could take the leftovers home. But the meal was over salted and heavily seasoned. For someone who has lived a low salt diet for nearly 50 years I could not eat it. took two bites and it was essentially garbage. One thing the cook should consider is you can add salt to your dish at the table. I cannot remove the excessive salt at the table. When I got home the platter went straight to the garbage can. Hope it was a onetime mistake. But if I go again and my meal is over salted that will be my last. read more

I had the $30 prime rib with mashed potatoes and corn. The prime rib was paper thin. The slice was obviously grilled on both sides. It was on the special board so I expected better. The gravy on the mashed potatoes was canned and tasteless. The potatoes tasted like they were rehydrated from a box. The corn was chewy like from an institutional sized can. My husband had the meat loaf tower. The meatloaf was not fresh. It was a few slices of thin over-breaded leftover grilled hamburger. Same boxed potatoes and canned gravy. The broccoli was over cooked. read more

Fruit was fresh, omelette was great, and the place was very clean. Pancakes weren't great (pretty dry) so id probably go for french toast or waffles instead read more

We have been there 3x in the last couple of weeks and we'll go back again. They give you an abundance of food and the food taste delicious. My hubby is very fussy and raved about his breakfast & lunch. We had great service, pleasant waitresses and a clean friendly environment. They have specials on a board every day. Also the coffee is good. read more

My husband and I went to the diner for dinner and ordered the "meatloaf tower" with mashed potatoes. The generous portion was enough for lunch the next day. We enjoyed the homemade chicken orzo soup with warm dinner rolls. Dinner was delicious and served promptly. Steve, the owner greeted us with a warm welcome. He made sure that we were completely happy. The remodeled diner looks so fresh and clean. We will definitely be back again soon. read more
