What an amazing dining experience!! I was traveling for work and did a little bit of research for a good seafood restaurant. This is it! The service was incredible. The host, servers, bartenders, and manager all had a very welcoming and friendly demeanor. The restaurant itself is very welcoming and of course the food. It was an experience! Absolutely recommend!

We ate at Sea Level before the ACC Tournament last night and had such a great experience. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was beautiful—classy but still relaxed and welcoming.
And the food… you absolutely must get the cornbread. It’s life-changing. Everything we ordered was fantastic—the Smoke Show cocktail, lobster and shrimp bisque, Southern oysters, and the po’ boy were all incredible.
Eating out can be expensive these days, but when the experience is this good, it’s completely worth it. Sea Level definitely delivers. We can’t wait to go back!

Had dinner on a Saturday. The food was delicious. Some of the best oysters I've had in the Charlotte area, and the entrees were great as well. Equally important - our server Holly was fantastic! She was friendly, professional and knew the menu well. Great recommendations on the oysters!

Holly, our waitress, was great!

All of the food was wonderful. Chargrilled oysters, clam chowder, lobster bisque, shrimp and grits, grouper w/red beans and dirty rice, and an apple buckle! We enjoyed both kinds of mules, and their whiskey sour! The cornbread is to die for! Sweet but not overwhelming, with crispy edges. Nothing was salty.

The Hawaiian Delight starts off like grape koolaid and ends medicinally, but a wonderful experience overall. Will return.

Parking validation for Truist garage not active tonight, and the restaurant seems smaller than the pictures, as it does have wall bench seating.

An incredible meal. I had the fried NC catfish and succotash. It was unbelievable. Fish was cooked beautifully. The succotash may have been even better than the fish.

Solid drink and beer menu. Friendly service.

If you’re looking for a relaxed spot with killer food, this place is it. The atmosphere is cool and really laid-back, so you can just sit back and enjoy. The food? Totally on point. We started with the seafood dip, then had the seafood paella, and finished strong with the salmon. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. And the cherry on top—literally—was the complimentary apple dessert they brought out at the end. Sweet, just the right amount, and a nice little surprise. Between the chill vibe, the amazing food, and thoughtful touches like that dessert, it’s the kind of spot you’ll want to come back to again and again. Can’t recommend it enough!

This is clearly one of my favorite restaurants. If you want clam chowder with plenty of chowder to chew, this place is for you! Great service and they have consistently served by our food if you're looking for American seafood.

The vibe at this restaurant is really good and makes for a nice overall experience. The food is pretty good, and the dessert, especially the chocolate cake is very good. Definitely coming back!

Monday night dinner around 7pm, we were a party of three and seated in a cozy booth near the bar immediately. Started with a few drinks (bud light, Bloody Mary oyster shooter, & two Smoke Shows). Next up, oyster appetizers and a shrimp cocktail. Finished with a lobster roll, chicken sandwich, and seafood paella. Everything was fantastic! Portions were very generous. Our server was so friendly and food and drinks came out quickly. Can’t wait to go back!
