Elijah's

Elijah's is an oyster and fish camp on the Cape Fear River in downtown Wilmington, known for fried, broiled and blackened seafood served with Southern sides. The kitchen puts a focus on North Carolina oysters, with several preparations and a rotating set of daily specials.

The restaurant sits on Chandler's Wharf and has the largest porch on the Riverwalk, with dock seating as well. It opened in 1984 in a building with a long maritime history, and many of its nautical artifacts and ship models are still on display. Midweek oyster specials and weekend drink deals are offered, and gift cards are available.
