    We had dinner at Seaboy for the first time last night. We were seated on the porch. We were concerned about it being too warm outside but it turned out to be very pleasant. Our server was attentive and very knowledgeable. The drinks were creative and quite good. We appreciated the NA options as as well. The food was outstanding. We enjoyed the small plates concept and had fun sharing everything with our party. There was not one single thing that we did not enjoy. We are so happy that this restaurant is here as it is a great addition to our area. We cannot wait to return!

    One of the best dinner experiences we’ve had. Food, service, and ambience was great. Chef greets you when entering as it’s an open kitchen. Only warning is it is hot (doesn’t appear to have air conditioning and loud).

    Fantastic all the way around. All of the food was super fresh and delicious. The staff was amazing, knowledgeable and friendly. Can’t wait to go back… they set the bar to a new standard. We are so lucky to have this restaurant in Cornelius. Hats off to Chef Jonny Cox.

    The food was quality and the staff was attentive and friendly. We sat at the chefs counter and enjoyed watching Chef and his staff work their magic. Grilled Oysters were spot on

    Food and service was top shelf. Some unique dishes and prep not seen at restaurants added to the experience. Restaurant was noisy and sounds like the restaurant is addressing. We will be back

    The food was incredibly salty and the noise level was very high in the back of the restaurant. The staff were friendly and very attentive. I just can’t believe how much salt was added to all the dishes especially the Cesar salad, lamb, and lobster/crab roll.

    This restaurant is a tiny gem with outstanding seafood! I believe it has the best seafood in Lake Norman, NC. The service was incredible, and we can't wait to go back.

    Absolutely the best meal I have ever experienced. My husband and I can’t wait to go back. We drove from Charlotte and decided after the meal that this restaurant was well worth the drive and that we would like to make reservations for twice a month. We’d be there weekly if it were a little closer. The food was excellent and the presentation was beautiful!

    Seaboy’s food and service are outstanding! The one and only concern is noise in the dining room.
