    Whole Seabass from the grill - so good !!
    Joachim G.

    Best fish !! Very friendly service and fresh and great fish! Very good Portuguese wine - what else can you ask for?

    I asked for well done steak and they messed up the order twice they gave me half raw the first time the second time they gave me medium rare, Plus my parents ordered clams and shrimp and it was half raw and undercooked would not recommend coming here

    This great Portuguese restaurant has recently reopened under new owners, there have been many changes but for the better. The atmosphere was warm & inviting, the place felt fresh & clean. They are still working on their decor, bringing in Portuguese flair with a modern twist. The menu has been updated to which the food is authentic, Fresh & full of flavor. Prices are incredibly fair for the quality and portion sizes. The staff were friendly, polite & clearly making an effort to provide good service. Overall, we had an great time and look forward to coming back!

    Whole fish
    Jessica G.

    This is such a hidden gem in Danbury. We love the authentic Portuguese food in a clean, nicely decorated interior. The menu includes a range of seafood and meats. However, we always go with the seafood and/ or the whole fish special. The meals come with a nice salad, bread and olives. The service is always wonderful. Nothing like a good Portuguese red wine and a fresh fish dish! Highly recommend!

    Food quality has declined a bit, compared to last time I was here. (Food is still good. It used to be great!) The bread they served is from the night before, which for a Portuguese meal, makes the whole difference. Service is mediocre. There was only one server. Affordable rices. Not sure if I am willing to come back!

    Grilled sardines with rice
    Mickey G.

    Atlantic has been there for twenty years. There is a reason why. Great food at great prices. I love grilled sardines. A great dish at Atlantic. My wife likes the grilled chicken and we both love the specials.

    Ordered food for pick up. Food was poorly wrapped, spilled all over my trunk. Seafood was over cooked. Would not recommend.

Unfortunately, the experience quickly declined once our server arrived. They were dismissive, gave us uncomfortable looks, and their attitude made us feel unwelcome. The food was mediocre and not worth the price. Most dishes lacked flavor, especially the chicken wings, which had no seasoning at all. Throughout the meal, we were consistently overlooked by the staff. Despite being clearly visible, we had to repeatedly ask for assistance while employees stood nearby without offering help. What made the experience particularly upsetting was the sense that we were being treated differently based on our appearance. The behavior felt discriminatory and left us feeling uncomfortable and unwelcome. Overall, I would not recommend this place. We barely ate and asked for the check early just so we could leave

    The last thing I want to do is jump to conclusions of racism but this seemed pretty blatant. I…read morenever jump to that conclusion lightly -- and honestly, I tried to talk myself out of what I was seeing in real time. But after replaying the situation, I couldn't unsee it. My date and I had an 8:00 PM Valentine's Day reservation and arrived on time. We checked in with the hostess and were told our table would be ready "in a moment," which was totally fine. We stood and waited patiently. Shortly after, a white couple walked in behind us and told the hostess they technically had an 8:15 PM reservation but were told to come at 8:00. They were seated immediately. We looked at each other but didn't say anything -- we figured maybe they had something ready and ours was being turned over. Then another white couple came in with an 8:00 PM reservation and was also seated right away. At this point, we were still standing there. No update. No explanation. No reassurance. All three parties were groups of two. There was no difference in party size, and we were on time for our reservation. Being skipped once might be a mistake. Being skipped twice, with no communication at all, felt intentional and uncomfortable. We were left standing there feeling confused and honestly unwelcome. If there was a legitimate reason for the delay, it was never communicated to us. No "your table is being cleared," no "we're just running behind," nothing. Just silence while other couples were seated in front of us. What was the difference between their table and ours that we were moved to the side to stand and wait? Everyone was a party of 2. We arrived on time and were the first ones in the door.. I truly didn't want to believe what this looked like, but it became impossible to ignore. We ended up leaving because the situation made us feel disrespected and unwanted as customers. Valentine's Day is obviously a busy night, but fairness and basic communication are non-negotiable. I would not recommend this place, and I especially would not recommend it to people of color based on how we were treated.
