★★★★★ 5.0 Joshua Skula · Feb 2026

Michelle (main bartender) is by far the reason I love this place! Been coming here every other month for a year and every time she greets me by name and makes my favorite drink!! Honestly one of the best expresso martinis in Wilmington! Overall the staff is great, very friendly and welcoming. Rooms are always clean. My go to place in Wilmington.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Ace Burns · Dec 2025

Our Christmas Eve reservations got canceled 2 hours before. we called probably 20 different restaurants to find aplace for dinner and ended up here... . The menu isn't extensive but everything we ate was great and so we're the drinks. not gonna lie the atmosphere wasnt at all what we expected but Miranda turned out evening around and made it a Christmas we will never forget. Definitely recommend 9.5 outta 10

Okay but Michelle at Paloma’s— soo good. Her espresso martini was actually perfect! She is just genuinely great at her job, if she’s behind the bar, sit there. That’s it.

★★★★★ 5.0 Kristen Farbo · Jan 2026

The food was absolutely amazing! We had the beef birria tacos and the honey spicy habanero burger. The best we've ever had! Rian was bartending and she was amazing! We will be back!!!

I’ve traveled here for a month and Michelle has been wonderful each day I’ve came and visit the bar. She’s attentive, kind and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her because she makes you feel like you’re at home.
