Amy our server did an amazing and outstanding job taking care of us and anticipating our needs. Roman the manager properly came by the table and made sure we were taken care of. The entire team went out of their way to make our wedding anniversary a very perfect occasion! Ruth's Chris is our favorite restaurant in Wilmington. This location has the best team, the best food, the best ambiance, and the best service!

We were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and our friends were celebrating their 55th. The staff went out their way to make our meal special. The quality of the food was amazing and the presentation was over the top - they used gold and emerald symbolizing our marriage milestones. Grace and Lilly made the evening special with their care, hospitality, and conversation.

I live in Atlanta and was in Wilmington for business. I wanted to take my customers to a dinner experience that they would remember.  I got exactly what I was looking for! The staff was amazing, the restaurant ambience is incredible, and the food is off the charts. Everyone enjoyed their meal, and the next day everyone complimented me on my “find” in Wilmington. I can’t wait to go back! Two thumbs up and five stars from me!

Absolutely perfect evening! Japanese curry w/shrimp and shaved ribeye w/broccolini were our meals. Drea, server, excellent. Scott, manager, wonderful, funny, always a pleasure to banter with him. Tomiko-San is a gem in Wilmington's crown and, if you are a lover of fresh, beautifully prepared and presented Asian cuisine, then you are in for a real treat!
