I've been to Atlantic Prime only once, so this is based on a very limited experience; but here are…read moremy opinions. The decor is inviting, nautical, attractive and special - a real feel-good place. The staff is exceptionally friendly, helpful and professional. They all appear to really enjoy that they do and made us feel like they were so very happy that we were there. Two of the three items we ordered were first-rate - although a little on the pricey side. The prices are somewhat offset by the generous portions. The Clam Chowder ($14) is simply fantastic. The large bowl was loaded with strips of tender sweet clams, bacon and potatoes swimming in a creamy tasty chowder base. As good as any I have ever had. The Octopus Salad was amazing. I order the octopus dishes whenever they are on the menu wherever I go. I have eaten a lot of octopus in my time, but this was by far the most tender. The arugula, potatoes, capers, olives and aioli combined to make this a delicious dish. The Crabcake Sandwich ($28 with Fries) missed the mark with us. The extra large crab cake itself was loaded with crab with minimal filler, but we did not like the flavor. There are about as many different tastes and styles of crab cakes as there are people who make them. Different people like different things, and we just didn't like this item. Bottom line - Atlantic is an upscale, slightly pricy, enjoyable restaurant in the heart of downtown Franklinton. We will definitely be back to try more of their creative dishes.

We were also told that they can make it extra extra hot if we just ask them to. The lady had once given us the spice mix in little dip containers to increase the heat for our to go order. Every-time we are in or around that area we have to grab a lb of the sausages! If you do try the sausages, do not forget to add corn and potatoes and grab a side of white rice to help soak up the spicy garlicky goodness! I think the other seafood options do come with potatoes and corn with them. The place has a cute ship themed interior with booths lining the walls of the space, and multiple tables in the centre too! While I do enjoy the shrimp, I think the mussels are still my fav and the shells are perfect to scoop up the sauce and pour it onto the rice (or in your mouth) whatever is preferred. Do get ready to get your hands dirty and do a little work like peeling the shrimp or getting the mussels meat off the shell, but it's so worth the effort. I have gotten a few of my friends hooked onto this place, and I plan on bringing some more friends too.

I think we waited 2 minutes before we were seated lol. I had seen this restaurant once before and totally forgot about it until we were in the area and wanted seafood. The hubby is not a big crab boil fan so he usually opts for a fried seafood dinner. They have your usual menu items....pick your preference of seafood, seasoning and spice level. It was cheaper for us (myself & the cubs) to get the family platter instead of individual meals. Let me tell you something!! It did NOT disappoint!! Food was prepared fresh and very flavorful & plentiful. We decided on the Big Bang with a medium spice level. Our server was very nice and friendly and didn't mind answering a few questions and making sure our food was to our liking. Per usual, the hubby ordered a shrimp and fish platter which was also a nice portion. This is a great restaurant, so much so I have recommended it to several people!

Pricing is fair, food was tasty and the service was sweet, I will be back! I imagine this place is hopping on weekends/evenings. The atmosphere, vibe and food would ensure people line up.

It was like someone took a pail of water and threw it in a pot and added some potatoes and onions. Very little crabmeat. Taste was very bland. Reminded me of dirty dishwater. I order the 2 jumbo soft crabs and I guess they were out of them. Instead of telling me and checking to see if I wanted something else, I received 3 of the smallest soft crabs I have ever eaten. Fries were good but could have have more Old Bay on them. Corn tasted like it came from the same dishwater as the she crab soup. Hush puppies and sweet tea were the best two things about the entire meal. I believe my check came to $40 including a tip. Never once did someone come to check to see how everything was. Everything was served on plastic with paper liners, and you have to clean the table by yourself. The hotel I'm staying in recommended this restaurant and I would not eat there again
