    The food was amazing but we got stuck right next to the kitchen so we heard them prepare food for an hour and a half. BUT, our server, Kevin, was killer! He knew what we wanted to eat and then paired a nice red with our steaks. We had the Australian Wagyu ($70/filet as of 12/20/2024) with the mushrooms, scalloped potatoes, and Brussels sprouts. The veggies were 10/10 and the wagyu was 15/10. Check em out!

    Floriana is a must when visiting Wilmington. Chris made our experience incredible. We loved the pecan salad, the lasagna, and the shrimp and scallop risotto. Extensive wine selection and wonderful atmosphere. We will be back!

    Have lived in Wilmington for over three years and for some reason had not tried this place. Food quality was excellent. Having a reservation was key for the extremely busy night of our visit. Special thanks to Eric for making our experience top notch.
