12 Best Outdoor Bars and Restaurants in Charlotte | Eater Carolinas
"It’s not too often a restaurant in Charlotte peers out onto a body of water. However, Hello, Sailor, a lakefront eatery by the beloved Kindred team, is one of the rare ones, with an orchestra-level view of Lake Norman. Despite taking quality seriously, the team keeps cocktails lighthearted with umbrellas and swirly straws swimming in the tropical-leaning drinks. An intimidating Negroni is not so serious mixed with cherry lemon Sundrop in slushy form. Definitely get oysters for the table and the steaming bowl of mussels. But there’s no shame in keeping it simple with a popcorn shrimp basket." - Kayleigh Ruller
