About Rx Chicken and Oysters

Located in the old Hall’s Drugstore building on the corner of 5th and Castle, Rx Chicken and Oysters is Wilmington’s only restaurant serving exclusively NC seafood, much of it sourced by its own staff. Owners James and Sarah are spearfishers and frequently serve fish they caught that same morning. The menu features Rx’s own Lucy Bea oysters, farmed in Topsail, as well as pasture-raised fried chicken from Joyce Farms. Reservations can be made at rxwilmington.com.
