The Area's Authentic Seafood Restaurant The experience that you will have at Hieronymus Seafood Restaurant & Oyster Bar is uniquely Wilmington, North Carolina. Our specialty is Cape Fear cuisine, including fresh local seafood, fresh vegetables, and local craft beer. When you walk through our doors, take a look around. You will see many items that are a part of our history. The shells inside the tables have been brought to us by many guests throughout the years. Nameplates on the bar designate locals that have told many a tale. News releases show Hieronymus cooking for Bryant Gumbel on the Today Show. You might copy a recipe for soft shell crab or take a gander at some of the "stars" that have dropped by for dinner.

The crab cakes were tasty but had a lot of filler. Cole slaw and grits were great as was the seared tuna sashimi.

The grouper, Cajun Alfredo linguine with shrimp and scallops, and mahi-mahi all were plentiful and delicious. The she-crab soup and raw oysters also hit the spot. I myself enjoyed the tequila drink (Jack Frost), tasty and refreshing. Our server Jessica was a delight. We shall return!

Seafood is always great. Family friendly. We enjoyed crab legs, blackened shrimp and grilled cheese for my son. She crab soup is a must and the cheddar bonnets.

We always make sure we go to Hieronymus when we're in town. The seafood is fresh and always prepared perfectly. Grilled Shrimp and Grill Scallops tonight. So good! And to finish the meal, a slice of Peanut Butter and Chocolate Pie with Whipped Cream. Yummy! Can't wait to get back!
