Review Jerry's Food Wine Spirits - Wilmington

This was a wonderful experience. The food was outstanding and the service was impeccable. The portions were tremendous. Enough to feed 3 people (if you chose to do so). Sure wish they had a sampler platter of their entrees. Would have liked to try it all. Food so fresh and local. Must place to go to.

Absolutely the best meal we have had in years!! Don’t be fooled by the nondescript location. First time here ( had heard great things, but never got here….until now) and it is BY FAR the best restaurant for EXCEPTIONAL food! The Chef is a genius. The blend of flavors, combinations, fresh!! everything, delightful offerings to appeal to everyone. Service is SUPERIOR. (Clara is a doll!) Really strong wine list. (by the glass less glamorous choices, but wide variety) We had the lump crab app. (photo) and I was tempted to lick the bowl. Had fresh crispy flounder over collards & hoppin john…and my husband had seared scallops with risotto, asparagus, lemon cream. This meal blew our minds. We will be regulars at Jerry’s!!! 🙌🏻

Wow! Delicious meal at Jerry’s. Flounder. Crab. Grouper and lamb was amazing 🤩

The attention to detail with every element of the dining experience at Jerry’s is more than 5 stars! The food is always amazing, the wait staff is pleasant and properly trained and the atmosphere is old school classic with a warm and cozy feel. I highly recommend anyone to visit and experience Jerry’s, especially if you want more than the average and the ordinary!

One of my favorites. Amazing food, drinks, service and always good music playing. The atmosphere is always low key, romantic and soft lighting

Jerry’s food, staff and service are beyond compare. Exceptional on all levels. My husband and I used Jerry’s to cater our intimate wedding 3 weeks ago. We live 900 miles away and I never worried for one moment that Elise and her staff would have everything done to perfection. From the moment I first spoke to Elise, I knew that this was THE place to cater the most important day of our lives. Elise was quick to respond to my initial inquiry and had an immediate grasp on what I was looking for - from the menu, the ambiance, and the overall “feeling” of the dinner/reception/experience. She was adamant and reassuring at all times that no request was out of the question, and that this was “our day” and they would handle everything we needed: linens, silverware, flowers, alcohol, set-up, clean-up, etc. We had the reception at our friend’s home and Jerry’s assured, and delivered, on their promise to leave the kitchen in better shape than they found it. They even took the garbage with them and packed and labeled all leftovers and stacked them in the fridge (SO glad that we were able to enjoy another amazing meal the next day!). The food is the freshest and highest quality. Jerry’s clearly takes absolute pride in that and does not cut corners. The skill, creativity and quality in preparation are first class and worthy of a Michelin Star restaurant (we live in Chicago area and dine frequently at some of the finest restaurants in the city/country/world). The professionalism, thoughtfulness, attention to detail, quality, skill, and genuine authenticity of Elise and her staff - (shout out to Christian & Jaya!) - contributed so greatly to the amazing success, fun, & love that surrounded our wedding reception. We are planning on recreating the whole night on our first anniversary, and of course dining in the restaurant each time we visit Wilmington/Wrightsville Beach.

I do not usually write reviews but I have to share that everything tonight was perfect. From the time I opened the door to be met with a friendly face to the time we left. The service, the bartender, and everyone else was awesome!! We had 4 people in our group and everyone enjoyed there meal. I had the special of the night, mahi. It was wonderful! My husband and his brother had filet Mignon. Awesome! My sister-n-law had the scallops. Best I ever had! Yes, I tried them all. I also had a lemon martini and others. They were so good! The bartender actually came to our table which i thought was awesome! Everyone there was so friendly and helpful! I will be honest this is one of my favorite places to go. I have lived not far from wilmington my whole life and can not tell you why I have never been here. So thank you to everyone that served us tonight at Jerry’s. This place is a must if you are in the Wilmington/ Wrightsville Beach area!!!

Most excellent dinner and service. We shared the Imperial lump crabmeat appetizer- impeccable. I had the seared scallops cooked perfectly while my husband enjoyed the chateaubriand. Our server, Clara was well-versed on the menu and food came in a timely fashion, despite the restaurant being at capacity on a Saturday night. Reservations recommended.

We had been hearing about how phenomenal Jerry’s is and our first time there didn’t disappoint! We highly recommend the food and service! One of the members of our party has life-threatening food allergies and the entire staff was accommodating. Our waitress and the kitchen staff had left notes on the menu about what they could and could not eat based on their allergies. Our family had an excellent meal and enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant. The food is exquisite. The incredibly fresh ingredients pair well with the extensive wine and cocktail menu. The cherry on top is the friendliness of the entire staff. You will not be disappointed with your experience at Jerry’s!

The best restaurant in the world! The Chefs, Jaya and Christian, are culinary geniuses, and Elise ensures guests have a wonderful experience. Jerry's stays true to the classics, but keeps it fun for our hardworking Chefs and their unique dishes. As a server there, I have had the chance to see just how wonderful this business really is. It is truly a Wilmington staple.

Rushed. We had dinner at Jerry's. last week and I have to say I was very disappointed. We arrived on time for our reservation and within the hour I was back in my car. My dinner was overcooked and the side dish was overpowered with lemon and thyme. I will not return!

Sent here by our valet at the hotal.. And it was an amazing experience. Amazing food and such personal service from really nice people. Can't recommend it enough. <br/>.

After more than 20 years of comparison I have found that Jerry's is consistently a great restaurant. The food is creative yet comforting and the wait staff is experienced and courteous. The room is intimate but the clientele creates a warm sense of place.

Booted from table after 1 1/2 hrs.. Five of us went to Jerry's for dinner and we were enjoying our coffee and conversation when the server informed us we must vacate the table for another reservation. Only 1 1/2 hours at those prices, I don't think so. Needless to say we will not be back. BTW, we are mature adults in our early 60's.

Better Go Somewhere Else. We talked with Jerry about catering our wedding. It took weeks for him to get back with us. <br/>When he finally did, his prices were well above the others in the same class that bid on the project. In my personal opinion he also did not appear to realize how arrogant or self absorbed he appeared during our conversations. We eventually hired Sweet and Savory, who gave us great prices and did a world class job! It is great to have so many competing resturants and caterers in the Wilmington market to choose from...

Exquisite.. Everything on the menu looks fantastic. Beef Tenderloin Carpaccio appetizer was delicious, loved the tomato and caper relish. I had the goat cheese encrusted grouper, with buttered asparagus, roasted tomatoes and whipped potatoes, flavor was amazing, but I wished there was more of a sauce, the goat cheese was a tad drying. Loved the horseradish crab Tuna, that's what I'll be getting next time. Wine list was small, but straight forward, really enjoyed the Firestone? sauvignon blanc.

Great find. $200 for a family of four including salads, main courses, desserts & wine but well worth it if you are in Wrightsville & are looking for great food and friendly service. The bacon wrapped grouper was incredible.

We went here for out anniversary and are very happy we did. My husband had lamb tenderloin with peaches in a brown sugar balsamic reduction, which I expected to be sickeningly sweet, but actually had more of a delicious tangy flavor. I had chateaubriand in a wild mushroom Demi glacé rheat was cooked to perfection. The meals came with hor rolls & salads (we substituted Caesar), Finally, we finished off by sharing a slice of lemon blueberry cheesecake, which was light and fluffy. Everything we ate was wonderful. The inside was romantic. Don't be fooled by the stripmall storefront exterior. This place was truly awesome and our server was on top of everything as well.

Fantastic food despite the fact that I am gluten-free and my husband is vegetarian. Very friendly service too. VERY happy.

Horseradish and crab topped yellowfin tuna is to die for. Served over Parmesan spinich, artichoke hearts, and shitake mushrooms with mashed potatos. Trust me on this!

Jerrys is hands down the best food in Wilmington, no need to outtdo this nite. Perfect from cocktails to dessert! Go big for the vanilla bean cheesecake
