This seaside restaurant offers a diverse menu featuring only the freshest ingredients. We indulged in several specialties, including the Grouper Linda, sweet potato flounder, pesto pasta Alfredo, and the Lumina burger. The chicken tenders for my child were also fantastic. Each dish was perfectly cooked and utterly delicious. We also enjoyed some local draft beers, which complemented our meal wonderfully. While it’s not the cheapest option, the quality of the food and overall experience are undoubtedly worth the price. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone seeking superb seafood in Wrightsville Beach.

The clam chowder is good, a little on the thin side. The fried shrimp was excellent, they need to work on the slaw, very little flavor. The catch of the day was Mahi mahi, it was grilled and very good the green beans, sweet potato fries and french fries were good but not great. I would definitely go back, the service was a 10 for sure and the atmosphere was great.

Two Strands of Hair – Unacceptable Experience
South Beach Grill has always been one of my favorite places to eat when I visit Wilmington—but after my most recent experience, I don’t think I’ll be returning. I’m honestly considering going to Oceanic instead.
I was served a plate of food that had a long, straight brown hair in it—very clearly not from anyone in my group or our server (who had curly hair). Some of the staff members did have hair that matched, though. That alone was extremely off-putting.
We flagged down a manager, but instead of addressing us directly, she passed the issue to our female server, who was the only one to apologize and ask if I’d like the dish remade. I said yes, because I understand mistakes can happen. It took about 10 minutes to get a new plate.
Then things got worse.
As I was boxing up the meal to take home, I noticed another hair—this time in my drink (which I had already drunk half of). At that point I was disgusted and just wanted to leave.
The final straw? When we got the bill, we were still charged full price for my meal, despite finding hair in both the food and the drink. No discount. No manager apology. Nothing. We paid it and left, but I left feeling really disappointed.
This restaurant used to be one I recommended. Now, I’m not so sure. The food may be good, but if this is how they handle cleanliness and customer concerns, it’s hard to feel confident coming back.

This was my first time at the South Beach Grill. Everything on the menu looked really good. I heard some regulars talking to some other guests about the fried Black Eyed Peas. I didn’t have an opportunity to try them this time as I didn’t hear the conversation until after I was done with my meal, but I am planning on going back to try them. They really raved about them.
I ate out on the patio. The service is very good with friendly, helpful people. I appreciated the view very much, you can see the water from your seat.
I chose the catch of the day special for dinner. It was blackened red drum over a bed of seasoned rice with grilled asparagus and salsa verde.
The fish is cooked to perfection and seasoned exactly correctly. The rice was the tiniest bit under flavored but, you know how that goes, it is rice. The grilled asparagus was very good and there were also some mushrooms in the dish that were excellent. I could use more of them, but I would also say that, no matter how many of them there were.
The parking was a little tight with street parking available. The food was very good and I would guess that everything on the menu is delicious. I’ll absolutely be back.

We were sat down and our order was taken within about 10 minutes of arriving. We ordered at the same time fried pickles as an appetizer and 4 salads with chicken. We received the appetizer about 10-15 minutes later. After about approximately 45 minutes of waiting for our meal, we had to go back front to check on the status of our food and were told our ticket was up next over and over again. We asked to pay for what we had already received and left. The tables around has had already left and new people came in and were served and finishing their food before we even heard anything about our food.

Outstanding meal and good service. Friendly waitstaff. Drinks and food were really good. Only downside was it was loud inside. If the weather is good, sit out on the patio!
Highly recommend the pesto pasta with shrimp and the Grouper Linda.

I went to South Beach Grill to treat myself and my girlfriend to some great food and drinks. We had the fried pickles and warm corn bread & whipped honey butter. Corn bread was SO good. Our server Danielle was amazing, the definition of southern hospitality. The bartender, Danielle’s daughter, made some great drinks.
I went with the Grouper Linda, and it was delicious. My girlfriend got braised beef short rib with gnocchi. Only had a few bites of hers but the short rib was super tender and the gnocchi was pillowy soft and amazing in the sauce.
South Beach gets a 5/5 from me.

We go to SBG every time we are in Wrightsville, usually more than once. We have NEVER had bad food here. It is always excellent! We have always had wonderful service, as well. Some of my favorite dishes are the clam chowder, the makers Mark salad and the squash frites. My husband loves the sweet potato crusted flounder and the SB tacos. We also love their fried pickles. The flourless torte and PB pie are our two favorite desserts. Highly recommend this restaurant!

our first visit on a day trip to Wrightsville and were looking for a place to eat by the water. this is not by the water and you may see the sunset through the trees. we sat off the main patio on a side deck, which was nice for a group but noisy with the kitchen fans and some smells on a hot day. food options are more limited with dinner than lunch. prices were on the high side and quality across our large party was hit and miss. Shrimp & Grits was the hit but pricey. fresh catch was the miss – nothing special at all with little seasoning and bland sides at an expensive price. Waitress was new but was attentive and very helpful. finally the required 3% on charges made the higher prices even more frustrating.

South Beach Grill was a happy find during my stay in Wrightsville Beach! It was less than a minute from where I was staying! The service was prompt and the ambiance was chill and laid back!
The food was delicious and I was happy to know that this type of service and food is consistently delivered!
I went back for drinks and spoke to many locals and they stated I made a good choice coming to this establishment!
