    I went in and ate and had an amazing experience. Bartender was great, food was delicious and ambiance was beautiful.

    This is the posted hours of operations.

    Let me start by saying that this place is a hidden gem in Acworth, GA and the surrounding areas. It should be recognized and visited more, IJS. The food here is always, always fresh, hot and well prepared. From the appetizers to the drinks to the desserts to the food, you can't miss. The only wish is to try everything, but it's best to come back soon, and keep coming. The service from the hostess staff that checks you in. To the serving staff that takes your order. To the management staff that walks around to greet you and welcome you in, this is food service and hospitality done right. Words can't express the level of service from Ms. Dorothy, she is amazing . She is funny, knowledgeable and very attentive to her customers. We come back as often as we can and ask for her. The ambiance is white tablecloths, but on a more relaxed state. They have some soft music playing overhead, but it's not overpowering at all. They have a beautiful large fireplace inside. Plenty of extra seating on the upstairs area. The restrooms are nice and clean and cool. A must visit for date nights, family dinning, groups, individuals or to hang at the bar to watch a game or to chill nice and romantically on the patio - visit soon.

    Crab Dip
    John H.

    Wanted to like this place really badly. My wife and I wanted to go out and celebrate a great end of the month. I particularly wanted to go somewhere that we haven't been before. We love seafood and the reviews and menu from this place looked promising. We were greeted nicely enough at the door although it's a bit odd when someone says "we only have outside seating". This place looked nice so there is a more professional way to say that. We would have waited for something inside but we weren't given that option. The patio had maybe 2-3 seated tables at the time at around a quarter to 6pm on a Friday night. We were greeted by our incredibly friendly server (red bow but I don't remember her name) Super nice but she didn't seem to know the menu too well. Again we had never been there and we needed some help. We decided on the crab dip. It was bubbly and tasted pretty good although I am not sure why you would put Velveeta on the description. But ok. Make sure to stir it well because the crab didn't seem to appear until we were half way done. I also ordered a margarita. It was excellent. Kudos to the bar tender. Next we ordered our entrees. I ordered the Redfish with mashed potatoes and sliced cucumbers and a quarter caesar salad, and my wife got the horseradish encrusted Grouper. Same sides. You'll notice that I did not take pictures of that. I'll get to that in a minute. The salad was pretty good. Nothing like a Caesar you might have had. At first I thought the lettuce was charred because there were some brown bits that I just picked out. Should have been easily seen by the expo or food runner. Should not have been served. I've had my shots so I ate it any way. Loved the addition of kernel corn and green pepper. And the shaved parm was the only thing that resembled Caesar salad. (Besides the lettuce. Which was brown). After my salad was when things started going south. I mentioned that there were 2-3 other tables there when we were seated. Both left shortly after we got there. Literally every other table on the patio came after we were seated and after we ordered. (It was full when we left) After an hour from when we first sat down my wife and I started to wonder where our entrees were. And the food started coming out. The first was a 4 top, then there were two 2 tops and a party of three who all order AFTER us who got their food. Then 2 more tables got their food. And our table? Still nothing. When the next table got their food, I got up, Found our server and asked her to cash us out for the food and drinks we got. I then told her we were leaving. $42 for what you see pictured. $20 tip. When I mentioned it to the front desk person, she asked me who my server was, Not let me get a manager. This was not a server issue. I couldn't tell WHO the manager was! Never saw a manager. I was in the restaurant business for 30 years and I can tell you one thing; The manager in this place had no idea there was a problem. I'm not sure what "Pay No Mind" list we were on but this night was ruined. Really disappointed. Only reason for 4 stars was the margarita and the fact that plenty of other guest got epic service. Lesson learned.

    Fried green tomatoes appetizer
    Nakema G.

    I treated my mom to dinner at Fish Thyme and it was so good. This was my second time going and my moms first time. She really enjoyed it. We started out with the fried green tomatoes appetizer. It has a sauce on it and goat cheese. The tomatoes are a little on the thicker side and could use a little more seasoning. For entrees we ordered the parmesan and potato encrusted flounder and the half order of crab cakes (1). A full order is 2. The crab cake was good and not full of filler. It had a remoulade sauce that paired well with it. For sides we had green beans, creamed spinach, and mashed sweet potatoes. We ended dinner with the rum cake. It was very moist and warmed. It was served along side vanilla ice cream and whipped cream with a caramel sauce.

    4 stars for the great service, nice ambiance & cute bracelets that the owner gave to my 19 month old. The service was excellent! The food came out quick! Drinks were strong & came out soon after we ordered them. Love the paper for tablecloths. My 19 month old enjoyed coloring on the table. The kids menu is on the back of a children's book. Super cute idea. I was reluctant to let my toddler read the book as it was a little old and germs. Loved the idea but I'd prefer a disposable menu. Started with the alligator bites & oyster Rockefeller. Both were delicious! I ordered the blackened Halibut. The lobster cream sauce was great!! Had to order more sauce for the fish. The halibut was a little dry. Probably my least favorite dish. The creamed spinach & mashed potatoes were good. My husband ordered the stuffed flounder. DELICIOUS! Seasoned to perfection! I ended up eating his food. He ordered the hash browns as the server said it was his favorite side. Don't recommend. Just dry hash browns. No seasoning, flavor or anything. Overall, this is a really cute date spot.

    Things I thought I would never say- "honey, let's drive to Acworth to have a memorable seafood dinner in Acworth". Amazing, just amazing. We were a table of 8 dinners and had a fabulous meal and experience. We started with several appetizers that we shared- calamari, mussels, oysters, and spicy crab claws. All of them were outstanding with the mussels just inching out the calamari as my favorite. The sauce that the mussels were cooked in was on point- I haven't had mussels that outstanding since I was in France. We ordered a sundry of entrees amongst us and my crab cakes were very delicious. I did order the full entree and after the starters we had, I almost didn't finish the meal. Threes cheers to our server Ms Dorothy- she kept our beverages filled and the table tidy. Additionally, I need to point out that all of our entrees came out at the same time. That kitchen was humming. I will warn you- wear elastic waisted pants. You will need them!

    I've eaten here many times over the years, but tonight's experience was by far the worst. Usually they are on point, so maybe it was an off night. My complaints stem from a lack of communication between service & the management team, and total lack of communication between the manager and the customer. Keep in mind, my rating is based on the overall cost to quality ratio, so I'm judging them harshly because their dishes are on the higher end of the spectrum, and as such I expect better attention to details & customer satisfaction. Our server was overall pretty good, polite, and present. However, drinks trickled out to the table rather slowly; from the time the first couple of drinks arrived to the final delivery of the table's first round, it took about 15 minutes, making it impossible to have a proper toast for the birthday boy. I realize this is a bar staff issue and not necessarily the server's fault. Nonetheless, she kept a sunny disposition. The next issue came with my grilled trout order, which was a victim of a severe grill flareup that made the skin burnt and bitter, so I did not eat it and brought it to the attention of our server, who said that she would have it removed from the bill, agreeing with my analysis. Instead the manager gave the discount to another check at our table, not mine (and it was less than half the cost of the meal). Frankly, if I were the manager I would have made a stop by the table to make sure the resolution was satisfactory, to offer my apologies. All I was told is that the manager didn't do the removal the right way, and that there was no recourse at that point. Because it was a birthday celebration, I didn't raise a fuss, but I sure don't mind sharing my experience here to caution other diners. Appetizers were the calamari & bang, bang shrimp, the former relying on the garlic aioli for flavor while the calamari strips were overly salty and slightly limp. The shrimp were also sodium heavy, missing the three dimensional profile of what I expect from the dish (a little sweet, a little spicy, a little salty). The side items were acceptable; the creamed spinach was the most flavorful part of my meal, the green beans were primarily seasoned with garlic leaving much to be desired, but at least they weren't over cooked like so many southern style green bean dishes are. Considering our table of 9 spent around $1,000 collectively, I expect more from a restaurant. The desserts were on the sweet side for my taste, again relying on one aspect, rather than creating depth, though I will say the key lime pie came the closest to having a complex profile. The chocolate Charlotte is nothing like any Charlotte I have had before (usually a custard with fruits & berries served in a tart pie crust), but rather a dense chocolate cheesecake with a brownie shell, dry lady fingers and an overload of whipped cream drizzled with chocolate syrup...fair warning, it's big enough to feed four people. The strawberry pound cake does highlight the spring freshness of ripened strawberries, but again a bit too sweet for me, not enough contrast.

    This place is amazing! And classy. The food selection never disappoints. And the outdoor area is so beautiful especially during the cooler weather!

    Seafood pasta.  My buddy said it was excellent

    HEADLINE: The Food Here is an Experience not to be Missed. Now to the details. We've been here before, and I'm not sure why I failed to post a review. This was the first time in a while, ONLY because it's a long drive. I love eating outdoors, and the patio is amazing. Inside is nice, so if outside ain't your thing, you'll be fine. Service is excellent. Drinks are top notch. But what is a restaurant without good eats? Let me start by saying I've eaten in 100s of restaurants. So when I say the food here is a cut above the rest, I have a lot to compare it to. It amazes me you can find top notch culinary delights far into the Atlanta suburbs. Started with the crab stuff mushrooms. Big, juicy, loaded with crab meat. We were so hungry I forgot to take a pic. Sorry! I ordered the crab stuffed flounder, and my buddy ordered the seafood pasta. I had a side of corn with peppers, onions, and tomatoes, and a side of hash browns with onions and peppers. You get to pick two sides. He chose to pay the $4 up charge and replace one of his sides with a Caesar salad. It was huge! Not a salad in a bowl. I believe it was a quarter of romaine, nearly a foot long, loaded with a unique blend of cheese, homemade croutons, and I don't know what else, and easily a lunch all by itself, which is why he shared He raved about his pasta. And all I can say is my flounder was hard to stop eating. The beurre blanc sauce on top of perfectly cooked flounder and crabmeat.... So good it almost hurts. But I get to have leftovers in about 10 minutes. There is a reason this place stands packed even tho it's WAY up in Acworth. Hope I did the place justice. One last thing: if you're not a seafood eater, I did see pork chops and steaks on the menu. I might try them one day. But only if they don't have the crab stuffed flounder.

    Fried Green Tomatoes
    Earl S.

    We had a pleasant experience. Our waitress, Sarah, was really kind and accommodation. They have an extensive menu and du jour options as well. This is beautiful location recommended by dear friends and I'm glad we finally had a chance to attend. It's great for parties, gatherings, and dinner dates. We started with the Fried Green Tomatoes which left something to be desired---they looked good but necessitates more seasoning. We had to add salt and it seemed to still not be enough. I'd recommend adding seasoning to the tomatoes before breading them. For dinner, I had Stuffed Salmon with side of Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Vegetable of the Day. It was delicious, hearty, and full of flavor. We didn't have dessert. Parking is ample.

    Great food! Nice atmosphere, big selection. Highly recommend to visit this gem in north Georgia

    Water damaged floor with mold.

    So I haven't been to fish thyme in a while. I used to take my entire family yearly and myself monthly I just decided to show up last night with my son, which is a chef downtown Started with two apps. Brochette came out cold while the calamari came out hot with half the portion. We were trying not to let that ruin our evening. We ordered our entree with extra sides. My son ordered the cucumber salad. Just plain vinegar and the cumbersome were soft. I brought that to the waiter's attention. He just said I am sorry. Then after a few minutes I was drinking my water talking trying to enjoy our time together and choked on a fly in my water. I normally would order dessert especially their red velvet cake. We decided enough was enough nothing was taken off the check. Then I looked at the floor and saw all the water damage they had obviously from a toilet flood where they just threw a ring over it.

I can see parking being an issue on days that all of the businesses are open. However, I arrived close to closing time and had no problem parking directly in front of the shop. When I entered I immediately appreciated the decor. It gives tropical rainforest vibes! When I appreciated the counter I was greeted. There were two staff present. The gentleman appears to be a more seasoned employee and the female appeared to be in training. After looking at the menu I opted for a pistachio latte with oat milk and empanadas. I was told that they would be closing shortly. I believe I had about 30 min prior to closing time. This was more than enjoy time for me to drink a drink and eat my food. As such, I opted to dine in. The empanadas came out first. They were not my style. The pastry part was more like a corn bread consistency. I am accustomed to to emphasis being more of a dough like consistency. Additionally they tasted like something you just pull out the freezer and warm up. I would not order them again. When the drink arrived I had to confirm it was pistachio because I saw chocolate everywhere. The staff immediately recalled that I did not want whole milk and told me he had to re- make my drink. When it arrived for the second time the presentation was the same- it looked like a chocolate drink and not pistachio. When I took a sip I was shocked to find chunks of pistachios in the drink. I had to drink and eat the drink- interesting concept. I will say that the coffee taste on its own may be okay- however, collectively I was not a fan of this drink. Overall I do not have the best experience with the food or drink from this spot. I do give kudos for the ambiance and the service!

    The worst hot matcha latte I have ever ever ever had. Does that mean in the future I won't have…read moreanother bad latte? No. But to date, this was by far the worst and I was SO bummed!! It was like like drinking warm milk. Not hot, how I want, but warm milk, yuck! Making a sweetened hot matcha latte is not an easy skill. But this was the worst. Why am I so annoyed? Because I skipped going to Starbucks to support local. So I would've had a good matcha latte, but instead, got in my car, took a sip and cursed. Anyhow, aside from the terrible matcha latte, the space is adorable. 2 stories, lots of options for seating and huge outdoor space. You can choose from chairs on the porch, to chairs in the "garden" area. The coffee aroma was vibrant and the staff was nice. Many people were there in groups, pairs, and solo. So it's a place for all. I won't go back because I have PTSD from the terrible matcha latte. But it's a cute venue and if you like dogs or have a dog, it's dedicated to dogs.

Not my style, but if you're obsessed with dogs, you'll probably think it's adorable. My boyfriend and I went together. He loved the barista's nonchalant vibe. Me, not so much. I don't need a parade when I walk in, but a simple smile goes a long way. Price-wise, the coffee is fair. I wouldn't pay a cent more. I got Kirby's signature mocha iced (regular). It was fine...nothing special. My boyfriend got the same thing hot and enjoyed it, but he's a simple guy. I'm... not. So here's the bottom line: If you're looking for coffee that's innovative, unique, or memorable, this isn't the place. If you want a cute, simple mom‑and‑pop shop with reliable coffee that won't hit you with Starbucks prices, it'll do the job. One more thing: my boyfriend bought a chocolate cookie that was labeled as a chocolate chip pound cake, which turned out to be a brownie. The disorganization matches the overall vibe. But hey, happy coffee hunting
