Awesome spot!

We totally loved this cute diner! It was the perfect stop on our roadtrip. So many options with something for everyone. Highly recommend: nacho fries! We had to stop ourselves from ordering 2 plates. The only con is that it’s too far away from home😄

Pros: cute, cozy atmosphere , friendly staff, lots of choices

Good all around

There are lots of options, and all is vegan. The lentil burger was a solid choice.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Overall I’d say a 3.5 experience but they get that ALL VEGAN ROUND UP to a 4. The lentil burger was my favorite and definitely what I would get next time. I was confused by the hot dog situation. The menu said cornflake battered so I excepted a Korean corn dog but it’s just lightly battered and in a hot dog bun which was not my favorite. We had 3 desserts but I’d only recommend the banana pudding. The key lime pie was spot on with flavor but is served frozen which gives it an almost gritty texture. I ate most of it later at room temp and it became a soup but I preferred the liquid mess over the frozen texture. The brownie and ice cream weren’t really my speed. The black beans give the brownie a texture & flavor that’s slightly off to me and the ice cream was heavily coconut flavored even though it was vanilla. That said, I’d return for the lentil burger 100%.

Pros: Good service & space , Lentil burger

Love, love, love this place!

Our favorite place in our hometown with a full vegan menu. We go weekly to pig out. The food is amazing. The desserts are amazing. They even have some great local beers and crafter beverages like their hibiscus lemonade.

The best part is you can get whatever and not worry because it's all vegan. They have tons of gluten free options and they are clearly marked as well.

If you are vegan and looking to indulge yoruself in Wilmington... this is the place.

The atmosphere is great as well. The owners and staff are so sweet and it really feels like a family owned diner that cares about their people, their food, and their environment. Top notch people and service every time we go.

Pros: Great variety, Amazing desserts and drinks, Great atmosphere

Awesome menu!

We wound up here twice within our two day visit to Wilmington - it was that good! We were lucky to first visit on a Wednesday for the weekly Crunchwrap special. Shrimp tacos were also great. The next day, we picked up the most photogenic hotdawgs for lunch and brought them to Hi-Wire... they pair excellently with a brew.

We had our dog with us, and there were about 10 barstools on the patio as an outdoor option. It wasn't super scenic (seating faces a parking lot, busy street, and gun shop across the street), so we opted for carry out both times. Low top seating and some sort of privacy wall would go a long way for outdoor ambiance.

Staff was super friendly, and the atmosphere was casual and relaxed. Indoor seating had a quirky diner vibe. We were glad to support this establishment and highly recommend it!

Pros: Large 100% vegan menu, Tasty and beautiful food, Friendly staff

Cons: Limited outdoor seating

Droolin’ over Crunchy dawgs

Writing a review from the other side of the country because I miss Sealevel treats. It’s not on the menu but if they’ll do a crunchy Cali dog for you, your dreams will come true. Avo, chipotle, jalapeños onions and a cornflake battered dog?!?! Close runner up is the buffalo crunchy dog.

Also has the dankest desserts.

I miss you Sealevel!!

The best burger I've ever had

I've literally never had bad food from Sealevel. They do not miss. The lentil patty melt is the best burger I've ever eaten. The nachos SLAP. The tempeh Reuben SLAPS. The crunchy dog SLAPS. All of their specials rule. Their desserts rule. The employees rule. I love Sealevel

Every city needs one

I was intrigued that their hot dogs were PETA award winning. Separated from my group on a business trip and ordered loaded fries, a hot dog, and a piece of cake. They were all amazing!! All of it!! 5/5 experience and highly recommended.

Pros: Sustainable take out containers, Vast selection

Amazing food and location

What more can you ask for? The best vegan restaurant in one of the most beautiful locations in the world! Staff are always welcoming. My favorite is the buffalo sandwich, homemade chips, and Arnold Palmer. Love it here!

Everything is amazing!!

We LOVE Sea Level! All of the food is so fresh and flavorful. Kale nachos are a MUST!

My new favorite is the crunch wrap. . .only available on Wednesdays now. We live over an hour away, so we usually visit on the weekend. Tonight was a treat! Please make it a regular item on the menu. It is phenomenal! I also tried a side of the tempeh, black bean chili. . .yummy!!!

All staff members are so friendly and helpful! If you are anywhere near the area, you should stop in and see them!

A favorite place in Wilmington

The food, service and vibe are top-notch. We visited in July when we were in the area. When we came to Wilmington again, we knew we wanted to eat there again. This time we had the hot dog special, a plain dog and hot chips. We ended up sharing the cowboy chili as well, and both of us got the delicious sunset tea. We got dessert to go: a peanut butter cookie, an oatmeal pie, and the chocolate cake with chai, pecan and coffee topping. It was all very good and our server was friendly and attentive. On our way out of town, we decided to grab Reuben and hot chips to go which was an excellent choice. The Reuben is what I had on my initial visit and I highly recommend; it has so many flavors at once and the melange is wonderful. Adding here just in case management is reading this review: we would have ordered appetizer-sized nachos if it had been available.

Pros: Delicious food, Great service, Comfortable atmosphere

Cons: None

Delicious!

They opened right at the beginning of the pandemic. All I wanted was for them to not only survive but thrive.

I heard all about the Lentil burger and ordered it the way others had: chipotle, avocado, lentil burger, and fries.

It was delicious!

Pros: Welcoming staff, Fabulous Food, Competitve Prices

Cons: None

Fun Diner Atmosphere

The falafel was outstanding and I really enjoyed the burgers as did my non-vegan friends. The only thing that could use improvement is the brownie seemed stale.

Pros: Great burgers

Cons: Baked goods need to be fresher

So good!

My husband had the special, which was a tofu sandwich with melted Gouda and he said it was in his top 3 best sandwiches he has had. I had the avocado pita melt and it was delicious as well. Fries and hot chips were also great. We are also really happy with the service, the employees were all nice and accommodating. Prices were really great as well!

Pros: Delicious food, Reasonable prices , Great atmosphere and friendly staff
