Enjoy A Sense Of Peace At This Incredible Waterfront Restaurant In North Carolina

A peaceful waterfront restaurant in North Carolina makes for a magical evening. And when the food is just as extraordinary, sometimes it's worthwhile to save up for such a supreme combination. Drift On Lake Wylie in Belmont, a suburb of Charlotte, offers this dynamic pairing. Let's look at some photos of one of the best restaurants in North Carolina.

The contemporary barn-style building is a nod to Gaston County’s farming roots while celebrating the modern lake life.

Expect multiple staff members to assist you during your visit.

This eclectic vision - complete with a bar and lounge - is led by Executive Chef Rogger Torres.

While many come for the lakeside views, the inside is an elegant and refined space with aerodynamic features.

When the weather allows, choose your table overlooking this lovely landscape.

The local focus of the seasonal cuisine comes through exceptional ingredients sourced from the Carolinas.

An appetizer is in order, such as the classic Beef Tartare with whole grain mustard aioli, blistered grape tomatoes, caperberries, and a side of crunchy waffle chips.

A salad comes next and we choose The Wedge, artfully crafted with gorgonzola, bacon, and bleu cheese dressing.

Of course you could stop here, because the first two courses are quite filling.

But an entree of Pan-Seared U-10 Scallops isn't that heavy of a dish.

It's vibrantly colored by carrot purée, buttered spring peas, and pancetta. How fancy is that?

Or for something heartier, try one of the steaks on the menu or the Bone-In Pork Chop.

All of the food isn't so fancy, such as some of the lunch and brunch items which are offered on Saturdays and Sundays.

This Egg Sandwich has melted white cheddar and applewood-smoked bacon. Brunch entrees come with hand-cut fries or a salad. Pair it with a refreshing Mimosa flight.

And a drum roll for the dessert please: Vanilla Bean Cheesecake!

This stack of love is topped with fancy vanilla bean chantilly cream and shortbread crumble.
