Our favorite seafood resteraunt in Charlotte. We are a bit spoiled having grown up in Florida where super fresh sea food is everywhere but Pier 51 does a really good job with what is available. You won't leave hungry either as the portions are huge and salad bar comes with dinner. They recently added a lunch buffet that I am anxious to try. The owner actually works there and will not only listen to suggestions he will actually ask for your opinion when he is changing menu items. The wait staff has always been top notch and the food quality very good and fast every time we have been there.
