About this venue

Editor's Take: Sea Level NC is Charlotte's premier destination for responsibly sourced seafood. Known for its farm-to-fork approach and the legendary 'Sea Level Salt' oysters, this venue offers a chic yet approachable environment for seafood enthusiasts and cocktail lovers alike.

Focusing on non-threatened species harvested in partnership with coastal fishermen, Sea Level NC brings the Carolina coast to Uptown Charlotte. Our daily oyster happy hour is a local favorite, featuring our signature house oysters at an unbeatable price in a modern, stylish dining room.
