Came in shortly after opening for lunch, and happy I did. The bartender Aly was a blast to talk to, and the food I had was delicious. Tasted a few local beers too, and found a few new favorites.
The Ramsay Bolton burger was very tasty. I do wish they’d spread the bacon jam first, but otherwise it was great. The waffle fries were crisp but not too crunchy. Didn’t need any seasoning. I wish I’d known I would’ve been charged for the honey mustard and ranch prior, but at least I know what they taste like now. The honey mustard would probably be great on fried chicken, and the ranch on wings. They both tasted like they were made in-house.
I’ll definitely revisit next time I’m visiting the area.
Excellent experience all around! Delicious food, great drink selection, and very very good service! Get the nachos- HUGE and tasty! Like on a 12x18” sheet pan. Two people could not finish 😬
Nice downtown bar and grill featuring high quality burgers, wings, and sandwiches with a solid beer selection. Nice inside and has outdoor seating, service is excellent. Not pretentious or expensive - just good.
Casual bar serving meals in downtown Wilmington.
We ordered local beers on tap from our charming waitress.
We ordered the Rebellion Burger with bourbon bacon jam. It was EXCEPTIONALLY good and this is what I'd get if I return.
My sandwich, The Rebel Yell, while featured on the Food Network, was a little lackluster. You can see from the photos that it was bread heavy. The side salad was fresh.
The menu described the french fries as skin on potatoes, but were also nothing special.
Overall, a solid choice for lunch, but I'd stick to the burgers.
4 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Tried Rebellion for the first time around 5pm on a friday night. Nachos were huge and absolutely delicious. Tried the rebel yell sandwich. Enjoyed the beer selection. Definitely give this local gem a try!
We stopped in for a quick lunch and it was anything but that. Only 1 server there at opening and she was racing around. Our food took quite a while to arrive. When we did get it, it was good. We ordered the rebel yell, the showboat and the Philly. We also ordered a kids grilled cheese. The rebel yell was super salty and the bacon was not crispy. The showboat was yummy with lots of fresh toppings and flavor. The philly was good too but we were surprised it didn’t come with peppers and onions. Overall it was good. Nothing spectacular but decent lunch.
We stopped by Rebellion NC after seeing a movie because it was open late. I'm so glad we did! The sports bar atmosphere was very lively and fun. My husband loved his maple old fashioned. The food was almost as pretty as it was delicious! Of all the chicken sandwiches I've had since moving to the south, I honestly think this was my favorite. As a native Idahoan, I appreciated the Idaho Potato French fries. The service was timely and very friendly. The location is very good, only a block away from the water front and central to the downtown night life scene. The portions are huge, so it was nice to take a walk along the water and digest after we ate. We will definitely be coming back.
Rebellion has excellent food with wonderful service and a unique atmosphere. Live acoustic music in their cozy outside seating area was the cherry on top.
Great place to go to watch a football game. I wish I knew the name of the hostess & our waitress on Oct 7th. They were both great.
First, the hostess turned on the Ohio State game for us & placed us in a booth where we had excellent viewing of the game.
Our waitress made us feel right at home, allowing us to watch the game without pressuring us to vacate the booth after we ate.
Excellent staff!
There was a large number of items on the menu and all of the appetizers we had were perfect for a game. Hats off to the chef who, as we came to find out, is a Buckeyes fan!
The Cuban sandwich was excellent, brought half home. The sheet tray of nachos was very generous for four people. Nice selection of beer on tap.
