Best vegan place in North Carolina

I eat here about two days a week. I don't change much but what I get is so delicious no need to change. The staff is great. The food is great what else can I say.. they are the best in town!!

Pros: Everything about them is good, Very clean, Very people friendly I think.

Cons: mmmmmm?? This is super hard. , Just one and it may be just me.. no people , Of color work there. That would be nice to see

Great Vegan Food!

Everything I’ve tried at Sea Level has been delicious. Most of the items are made in house so not a ton of processed food. My favorite is the Tempeh Reuben. Nice diner atmosphere.

Pros: Good, Employees , Atmosphere

My favorite restaurant in wilmington

I always get the nachos with kale. the reuben is really good though. service is always very nice, i like the vibes a lot. they have cute treats and fun specials that regularly change. i’ve been going here since it belonged to the previous owner and love how green it is. I get nachos for takeout often and it’s often thoughtfully packed with cold toppings separate from the warm.

I’ll often go in with my gf, place a to-go order, walk over madame meerkats while i wait for food to be ready, and go back! sometimes i get a baked good but they’re not really what i go there for.

Pros: Entirely vegan, Lots of familiar options like hotdogs and nachos, A five starcertified ocean friendly establishment

Cons: A little pricey, smaller facility, wouldn’t take huge group

Yummy comfort food

Always love an all vegan spot, especially in the south. Nice old school diner vibes, the type of place that’s open to all walks of life.

The queso was delish, the tortilla chips were perfect. I tried the Korean bbq grilled cheese special and it was a party in my mouth.

The rest of the menu looks good. I’m here in Wilmington working for a lil while so I’ll definitely be back.

Out of This World!

Unbelievable vegan food with many GF options. Had the Buffalo Crunchy Dog. Hubby had Carolina Dog without the kimchi. Ordered Fried Shrimp as appetizers; incredible, shocked that they are GF and vegan! So, so good!! Had a side of fried plantains with jerk sauce that was just as amazing.
Visited again on our rainy Saturday for lunch. Started off with hot Chai with agave and oat milk. Hubby got the Coconut Curry soup; so tasty, warm and filling. He had the Buffalo Crunchy Dog. I had the Fried Shrimp burger, no onions with a side of plantains. My sandwich was heavenly! Purchased cookies to go: party, oatmeal, and oatmeal cookie pie (OCP).

Great Place for Linch

I eat lunch here from time to time. The friendly servers are efficient and prompt. I typically get the kimchee Reuben so I can speak only to that item: I love it. I have chosen different side dishes and never has one disappointed me. This is the sort of locally owned business that deserves community support.

Good food and nice atmosphere

We had the shrimp tacos, a hot dog and the medit. Salad, all of them very nice. Quesedilla for the kids, would have been nice if it included a side.

I love Sealevel!

Sealevel is my favorite veg spot when in Wilmington. They always have a bunch of delicious deserts, but their tempeh Ruben is where it is at (and don't forget about the kale nachos!). I love their spirit, restaurant vibe, and the food has never disappointed me.

Delicious chik’en sandwich and Carolina dog. Tasty desserts, too!

Visiting Wilmington for the first time and found out about this place. We arrived at opening and was greeted by the friendly staff. We ordered a few different menu items and they were all delicious! We’ll be back before we head out of town. Thanks again!

Pros: Lots of choices!, Friendly staff

Cons: Not anywhere near where I live

Great Food!

Visited here with my omni mom and sister and they both enjoyed their meals! I ordered the mediterranean pita and it was delicious but the problem came in with my side item. I subbed my side with the coconut curry soup and it was inedible, i usually love anything with curry powder but it was so bad dawg. I think it might have just been my personal food preferences speaking so I will give them the benefit of the doubt. The two appetizers my table ordered were flavorful and came in large portions. We ordered the hummus and the hot chip basket and both were great.

Second time back was great! I got the avocado pita melt w hummus and hot chips on the side, literally amazing!

Lots of flavor

Enjoyed everything we ordered - there was so much flavor in everything! The plantains with jerk sauce were a great app. We split the shrimp tacos and kimchi Reuben which were both fantastic! As others have noted - beware, the kimchi is spicy! Will definitely come back to try more menu items when we are back in Wilmington.

Loved this place. So many interesting options that I had a difficult time choosing. The staff was helpful and attentive. I had the queso dip, shrimp taco, and giant choc chip cookie. The taco was super. If your in Wilmington, this is a must try!

Good food but...

First let me start by saying the food that we did get was delicious.
Sadly I can not recommend anyone dine here. I drove in from Austin Texas, where there are tons of vegan spots. I was super stoked to try this place out but from the moment I went in the vibe was not there. Our waiter took our drink order and then didn't show back up for our food order for quite awhile. We ordered two appetizers and two entrees. I'm not sure if our waiter left for the day or what but we never saw him again after he dropped off drinks and took the food order. Our entrees were delivered but no appetizers. We mentioned it to the person who brought the entrees and they said they would check. 30 minutes went by and nothing. I asked again and they said the ticket was eaten by the machine and offered to put the order in now.
No offer to comp any portion if the meal and seemed indifferentabout the situation. It's hard to find good vegan dining spots while traveling. It sucks when the food was so good but the service is absolutely horrendous.
I have been plant based since 2017 and am constantly trying to get friends to join the team. Part of the process is winning hearts and minds with good energy and good food. Hopefully the energy of this restaurant will eventually match the great food.

Pros: Food

Cons: Poor service, Indifferent attitude
