North Harbor Club
The Verdict
North Harbor Club sits right on the Davidson waterfront and delivers the Lake Norman dining experience people picture when they move here. The crab cakes are among the best in the area, and watching boats glide by from the patio is hard to beat. It is not cheap, but the setting and the seafood make it worth the drive from anywhere on the lake.
