Roost Pub & Kitchen

Highs: Food and drinks were great! Highly recommend the bao buns, ribs and toaster strudel. Lows: (1) We were seated by curtains that led to a back room so everyone had to pass us within inches, pushing through the curtains hitting one of our chairs. No one should be seated there. (2) Nothing turns your stomach quite like your server coming over to check on your meal smelling like an ashtray. The smell was so strong that I took the rest of my meal to go.

My new favorite in Wilmington!! Bao Buns were delicious. Also the Sugar Were Going Doe drink was phenomenal! The peapod garnish made me lol. I drink like a fish, so I spent way more than the average person. Great service at the bar, even during an Eagles game. I WILL be back!

First time here and as a native Wilmingtonian, I would advise everyone to check it out. The drinks were balanced and delivered full to satisfaction. Gabe and Acora were awesome, providing great service and suggestions for food and drink! There was also a very active party in their private room that has led me to think about suggesting my corporate holiday party to be held here. Keep up the good work and much success to this local business!

Had a lovely early Sunday dinner. Our waiter, went out of his way to make us feel welcomed and at home. He explained the menu and made some excellent recommendations. We had delicious handhelds, they tasted like somebody really knows how to create great flavors. My sandwich came with a perfectly sized Caesar salad that had a surprise of polenta croutons. My husband had French fries that were crispy and hot and came with a house ketchup that added a little something special to the fries. We will definitely be coming back.

Great drink & food. First time there. Visited before concert at the Opera House across the street. Ordered the Short Rib Grilled Cheese with Sweet Potato Fries. The cheese was gooey and short ribs flavorful! The fries came with a French onion Paoli AND marshmallow dip! Cool. Just like Thanksgiving, sweet potatoes and marshmallows! Yummy creative! Also had a local cider that was pleasing. Great place to go before the show!
