    I got the chicken which is always amazing! It’s my favorite dish there. My husband got the pork chop and loved it! We will always come back.

    Everything was perfect. Flavorful tomato soup and crisp wedge salad. First server " sent home" second server,Justice, attentive. I really appreciated the sense of teamwork displayed. I loved the bathroom wallpaper and fresh flowers. I kinda forgot how much I liked this establishment.

    The chicken dish is always outstanding which is what I usually get but I let me son try it this time. I chose to get the sausage and pasta dish which was very bland and pasta was over cooked. The salads and desserts were good. We love this restaurant and will go back again.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and service. Only issue was that we were seated close to bar and some guests at bar were quite loud which made the experience quite noisy!

    We normally love Exlipse bistro as one of the best lunch options in Wilmington. We’ve all been coming since it first opened but it’s gone downhill the last few times. Felt like we were a complete annoyance to our server today. Showed up a few minutes early for 12:30 reservations and didn’t get our check back to us until after 2:30 pm. Over 2 hours for lunch seems way too long. Our meals came out wrong and no apology and no comped drinks /food or anything at all. Instead, we waited over a half hour more for correct meals and we had to go find him to try to pay our bill. Overall, food and drinks were great but the service was exceptionally awful.
