3 reviews for Deep Blue Bar & Grill
Deep Blue was one of the best concierge recomendations ever been to and place to try if in Wilmington.
I'll just have to say I have never had fresher calimari. You can tell by the crunch of each bite of squid. Second the plumpest grilled scallops and finally perfectly seared tuna for a nicois salad.
A small town but great restaurant if looking for fine seafood you'll be hard pressed to find better in cities ten times this size
I can only speak to the bar/lounge portion of the restaurant, so here ya go:
Tasty drinks poured with a medium hand, seating for about 20 in the lounge area, but there's plenty of room to stand and mingle.
If you're seeing a band there, they always crank the sound system up, so if you're senstive, bring ye olde earplugs.
Protip: Whatever time the band is scheduled to start playing, you'll wanna arrive 15 minutes early so you can have a place to sit, if you're not the standing type. (See previous note on there's only room for 20 people to sit.)
Photographers from The Spark (Wilmington's free paper) often has photographers lurking about, so don't look like a schlub; your picture will appear in their paper or on their website (if you have my luck, usually when you're at your shiniest or mouthfulliest). You've been warned.
Lastly (and this is just so I stop forgetting this): They have a coat room, so you don't have to fight with your stuff while trying to find a place to sit/stand.
Excellent for take out!
In Wilmington for a couple of days of meetings and was looking for someplace close to the hotel to grab some dinner to take back to my room. I ordered the Saku Tuna Tartare, Mixed Greens and Fresh Berries ($30 + tip in total). They packed everything up nicely, separate containers for the salad dressing, butter, and whipped cream for the berries and fresh bread.
The tuna tartare was amazing; very fresh with a tangy sauce for dipping.
The staff was friendly and helpful and packed everything up in a little tote bag for me.
I will definitely be back on my next trip!
