WalkAbout: Tower 7 - Wrightsville Beach, NC

Well kids it’s been a while since I wrote either a review or a WalkAbout post. So I figured I would tell you about one of my favorite spots in the WB.
I spend a lot of time in Wilmington, North Carolina because quite a few of my best friends and my boyfriend are from here. It’s sort of become like a home away from home for me too.

I have been eating at Tower 7 for a few years now and I just think they really have it together. The atmosphere is fun, the food is always good and well, who doesn’t love a good margarita?
They also own a few other restaurants around town, so check out their main site HERE

We we’re in town for my best friends engagement and spent tonnes of time on Wrightsville Beach. Both days we were there, we stopped in for a bite. It became a running joke that every meal, someone would suggest Tower 7. It really is that good. Haha!

Delicious Margaritas at Tower 7
Definitely try a Margarita. They are delicious. You can choose frozen or on the rocks. Try one of the more high shelf tequilas if you wanna get crazy or start out with their Wannabe.
What I love is that Tower 7 features 100% Blue Agave Tequilas, makes their own sour mix fresh everyday. That’s what I’m talkin bout!


Now, I am usually a Baja Fish Taco girl all the way…. but I really wanted to try something different. And sometimes a change is good!

Today I went out on a limb and tried the MALIBU SHRIMP TACO- Grilled Santa Fe Marinated Black Tiger Shrimp, Salsa Fresca, Shaved Red Cabbage & Monterey Jack.
This shrimp taco was delicious. Lot’s of perfectly cooked shrimp that had some nice flavor from the grill. I added some of their hot sauce and was in heaven.
*You will find quite a few hot sauces on the table but don’t be afraid to ask your server for their favorite.
They also give you a side of either mexican rice, beans or tobacco onions.

The second time we went, I still felt like I should try something different from my usual Baja Fish Taco, so I went for this puppy.
SAN FELIPE TACO- Dos Equis Beer Battered Cod, Salsa Fresca, Avocado, Shaved Green Cabbage, Cotija & Yogurt Ranch.

Definitely filling and I loved the avocado added to the taco. Cabbage and cheese were on the bottom and added a great texture balance to the crispy fish.

TIP: If you are Gluten Free, choose one of the homemade corn tortillas instead of flour.

If you are in Wilmington, NC, make sure you stop by the beach and also do yourself a favor and stop into Tower 7. I have never had a bad meal there.
Lot’s of surf videos playing, pretty people in bathing suits walking by. Fun, sunny and delish!

*also while we were there Hilary Swank was eating across from us. So you never know who you may spot in there…
