"Midtown Wilmington is more known for college student eats and fast food than high dining, but Covey is changing all of that. The menu is focused on American and Coastal classics with an emphasis on local and regional fare. There’s a classic wedge salad, crab tagliatelle pasta, and chicken and dumplings. Many dishes have touches of Asian flair, like housemade ponzu sauce and Asian pear mustard. With a pared-down bar menu, Covey aims to be both a neighborhood go-to as well as a destination restaurant, a welcome addition to Midtown." - Matt Lardie
