While most of us who live down Brawley School Road spent the winter trying to cope with this weird and very cold white stuff that kept falling from the sky, “Norman” was busy opening what is sure to become the hangout for Lake Norman locals: “Shoals Saloon and Grille…Mooresville’s premier food-drink & fun spot” in the new Bloom Shopping Center at Stutts Rd and Brawley School.
As you enter Shoals, you immediately feel like you are on vacation. The fun, whimsical nautical decor with the weathered wooden walls reminds me of hanging out at the lake or beach in the summer. It feels like it is time to relax. Shoals Saloon and Grille pretty much demands that you leave your stress at the door!
But, as “Norman” says on their website: ” Don’t be fooled by the casual Lake Norman atmosphere at Shoals, cuz we’re dead serious about great food, great drink, and great service.
The food is awesome. It is like a gourmet Vinnie’s on steroids with an eclectic menu that offers everything from a fresh mozzarella salad with home grown tomatoes to a lump crab “samich” to prime-aged Filet Mignon to their Lowcountry Boil on Sundays. Did I mention their desserts? My favorite is “Granny Heron’s Apple Crisp Streusel” but then again, I have yet to try their Key Lime Pie or Chocolate Thunder Brownie A La Mode! (Of course, their ice cream is made locally at Mooresvilles Deluxe Ice Cream).
The “Saloon” is wonderfully located in the very center of the restaurant which gives it that “Cheers” type feel where locals hangout while enjoying one of their amazing drinks like “Fidel’s Berry Mojito”, Martini’s of all kinds, Kentucky Mud Cider, domestic beers or wine.
Shoals has daily drink specials like Martini Monday Madness when all of their signature martinis are $5. And, Monday – Friday they offer “5 for $5 Happytizers”. How about meatball-sirloin-codwich sliders, fried calamari or Gorgonzola baked potato chips at the end of a busy day?
