Downtown Wilmington's Premier Casual Upscale Dining


   

114 Market Street in Historic Downtown Wilmington ***CALL 910.251.0333 for reservations


Our Restaurant Features Upscale Dining Coconut Encrusted Shrimp dining area at DELUXE

 
Deluxe offers an aesthetically stimulating environment in a lively and casual atmosphere: eclectic decor of art deco, abstract expressionism and architectural formalism; paintings, wood sculpture and glasswork, fresh flowers, high ceilings and clean lines. Featured artwork on exhibit at Deluxe rotates on average every 10 weeks. It's a sublime and friendly environment for enjoying excellent New American style dinners, with the largest selection of fine wines in the region, and one of Wilmington's superior brunches. Dinner is memorable, with innovative offerings including French, Asian, Italian, New Southern and Caribbean dishes that appeal visually while tempting the palate.
 
Try the Lemongrass and Ginger Grilled Local Chicken Breast with peanut fried coconut rice, Shanghai baby bok choi, palm sugar tamarind glaze, or Blackberry BBQ Glazed Niman Ranch Pork Tenderloin with sweet basil yellow corn pirlau, ham braised local butter beans, or Pan Roasted Moulard Duck Breast  with purple sticky rice, shucked corn, heirloom tomato, baby bok choy and Thai style pineapple red curry.  
For brunch, the menu is equally attractive, with selections that include cinnamon pecan swirl French toast, Lobster with exotic mushrooms and Brie omelet, or house smoked salmon, served with melted organic white cheddar cheese, two poached eggs and topped with a mustard cream sauce.
 

After dinner, sit back with a vintage port or a chocolate martini and you'll know why this cafe at the very heart of downtown is garnering a dedicated following. Deluxe is open for dinner every evening and for Sunday brunch from 10:30 AM to 2:30 PM. Menu selections are prepared with a special emphasis on fresh local ingredients and exquisite plate presentation. Deluxe has achieved a Wine Spectator award of excellence eight years in a row and the staff is dedicated to re-inventing fine dining styles for today's savvy gourmand.
