I’ve been a fan of Tower 7 since the early days when it was located on College in a sleepy strip mall. Prices have increased, but they are still doing it well. Great T7 burrito. Yum. If only they could get California Just Chile sauce back!

The food at Tower 7 Baja Mexican Grill was absolutely delicious, and the service was outstanding from start to finish. Our waitress was incredibly friendly and welcoming, she made us feel right at home. We asked for a small container of salsa to go, and she surprised us with a huge tub instead! Little gestures like that really make a difference. Highly recommend this spot for great food and even better hospitality. Highly recommend this place.

Dined here on a weekend for lunch. The place was very busy, so there was a short wait to get a table. They offer free chips and salsa, which was a nice touch. Ordered the Killer Veggie – it came sizzling hot but was just okay, a bit salty and heavy on the soy sauce. The veggie quesadilla was much better and quite enjoyable. Tried the Bloody Maria, and it was tasty. Only downside was the long wait to get the check at the end.
Overall: 4/5. Fun, lively spot with good drinks and solid food, but service could be quicker when closing out.

Why do I go anywhere else to eat? Even on their busiest days, Tower 7 delivers on flavor. We ordered to go, and they’ve changed where you pick up your food—instead of the bar, go to the multi-colored wooden wall in front of the waitstaff area. It took a few minutes for them to realize what I needed, but once they did they helped me. We had the Baja shrimp wrap and a tostada. Both were incredible with a side of chips and salsa. The restaurant stays busy, so expect at least a short wait. It’s a fun atmosphere with a beachy feel. When full the restraint can get crowded, so navigating with a mobility device may be a little difficult unless customers shift out of the way.

Decided to place a takeout order. I ordered a quesadilla with rice and beans. The food is pretty midtier. They also charge you $6 for a small salsa and $10 for a large salsa which I feel is absolutely absurd. Now I am left to eat a pretty bland quesadilla with a little bit of sour cream to salvage it. Service was all right, but definitely could’ve been better. I felt like more of an inconvenience than a customer supporting a business. I honestly wish I had nicer things to say about this place, but I just don’t.

I was craving fish tacos so we came here. Party of 3. I tried one citrus shrimp taco and one K38 Baja fish taco. The Citrus Shrimp taco was by far my favorite! The dressing was very good too. I wouldn’t order the K38 taco again the cod was either so full of oil that it was clear looking or the fish was undercooked? I didn’t like it so I took the fish off and ate the rest. This place was packed with people and we sat by some pretty loud parties. Don’t come here if you’re wanting to sit down for a nice quiet visit with friends…

Quality has disappeared, used to frequent in college years ago and even visited in last couple of years and always loved this place.
Surprisingly bad and it pains me to say so. Mission burritos were mostly refried pinto beans with dried out chicken, flat and lacking in contents and flavor.
We ordered a fajita burrito which wasn’t even rolled into a burrito. was seemingly assembled in a rush with barely cooked veggies despite being some of the only customers at the time.
Giving 2 stars because it wasn’t the worst thing I tasted but surely would not order or recommend any longer. Definitely not worth the 80-90 w tip for 5 of these burritos and an order of tacos.
Disappointed.

Caught up with an old friend at Tower 7 – it was my first time. The food was AMAZING! The drinks were great! Wasn’t a very inviting atmosphere, though. The waitress seemed like she had better things to do – it was a nice day so she might have been daydreaming of the beach! Can’t blame her there. But another lady (a bartender) took over and was spectacular. Would definitely visit again!

I visited Tower 7 during my trip to Wrightsville Beach and had a great experience. The Mexican food was flavorful and fresh, with a variety of delicious options to choose from. The ambiance was vibrant and had a relaxed, beachside vibe that added to the overall charm of the place. The staff was friendly and attentive, providing excellent service throughout. It’s a perfect spot to enjoy a tasty meal after a day at the beach. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.

We asked to sit on a patio. It was an alleyway between two buildings and we were sat against a cement wall. The waitress was very nice but it took her a while to check on us. Our rice was not cooked (still clear) and the cheese was not melted. I had told her I can’t have onions and was reassured the rice did not have onions. They replaced my meal. That time the rice was cooked, but the cheese was not melted, the rice was full of onions, and the meal was cold. She said they already had 4 complaints that day, but nothing was changed. She asked if I wanted something else and I declined. She took my meal off the bill and let my daughter take it to go. I left hungry and highly irritated. I wish we had the same experience many others did who gave high ratings.
