Great seafood and service! Let's get into it! Location and Parking Located in Chamblee, there is plenty of free parking available as it is in a shopping center. I saw previous reviews mentioning that parking was a challenge, however I visited on a weekday so I didn't have that issue. Venue and Atmosphere The interior is sleek yet casual, with plenty of sunlight from floor to ceiling windows. Feel free to browse the selection of fresh seafood as you enter. Food and drinks I visited with friends and we shared several appetizers: oxtail gumbo, salmon bites, grilled oysters. They were all delicious and flavorful. Service Service was friendly, prompt, and efficient Verdict I'll be back! read more

Wow--let's talk about this dining experience. The oxtail gumbo? My first time trying it, and definitely not my last. Every bite was rich, comforting, and fully satisfying. Then came the salmon bites on wonton--crispy, flavorful, and such a perfect balance of texture. For the entrée, the pasta with salmon was not only delicious but a generous portion that didn't miss. And for something sweet... the bread pudding? So moist, topped with ice cream and Oreos--it was giving indulgence in the best way. But what really sealed the night for me was the coffee pairing. It took the show and brought everything together beautifully. I also loved the range of the menu--there's something for every craving. The service was excellent, and the food presentation matched the quality. Honestly had me thinking, what took me so long to dine here? Especially since I'm in this area often. Bonus: patio seating for outdoor season, plus easy access with self-parking, valet, or a parking deck. read more

Lagarde was a highly anticipated restaurant for my friend and I and what better time to come during Mardi Gras when they have their themed menu? We were seated in the enclosed, outside area which was kind of a buzzkill because the inside seemed lively and those vibes were nonexistent in the quiet outside area. My friend was encouraging me to order the charred oysters as I've never had them before and we ordered a lot and they were pretty good! I ordered raw oysters to compare and enjoyed them twice as much. The drinks were solid as well. If you come here you want to stick to just that-- oysters and drinks. We ordered a few appetizers and they were all underwhelming in their own way. The whipped ricotta was unlike any other I've had before and the word that comes to mind is amateur? It just wasn't good. The Thai fried shrimp was just fried shrimp, nothing really Thai about it. The Nola BBQ shrimp was solid and the brisket tots were okay but was far from impressive. Stick to the oysters and drinks like I said. read more

Came here for a festive night out near Christmas. 11/10 did not disappoint. The festive holiday cocktails were great - my server suggested either Dirty Santa or The Grinch. Both were delicious. The tuna nachos had a spicy kick to them but were good. The jambalaya was a large portion and was also good. We asked them to make our espresso martinis festive - and they added a candy cane and a festive stirrer. They had a nice wine list too. Only downside was trying to find parking - but our server was great! Her name started with an M (I think). I will come back here for sure. read more

Absolutely love this spot! The food was sooo delicious & fresh! I absolutely love the roasted oysters. They were amazing! I visited this spot during halloween season which was so fun. They are all decked out and have fun halloween cocktails! I would highly recommend this spot to anyone in this area. They have a wide menu with lots of options. Parking wise: we did have some trouble. They lot was full and the line for valet was SO long. So definitely build in some time for parking!! read more

Our visit started off well. Our server Morgan was pleasant, and the brunch menu seemed to offer something for everyone. A good start went downhill quickly when one of our plates came out with hair in the butter. Our server apologized and took it back to the kitchen for it to be remade, which was fine. The bigger problem was that we weren't offered any type of compensation (a percentage off the entree that had hair, comped beverages, something). I'm not expecting a free meal or anything outrageous, but something for the inconvenience of having to wait while the kitchen remade the order would've gone a long way. I'm not sure if this falls on management for not empowering their employees to make these types of decisions, or if it was up to Morgan, and she didn't care to offer. Either way, the food wasn't good enough to overlook the customer service failure. read more

This place was really nice and casual! They had outdoor dining and the doors open. Our sever was very nice and professional. Our food was brought out piping hot and delicious. I ordered the Salmon BLT with the Cajun tots and the Summer in Chamblee cocktail. Oh and the deviled eggs and Thai Fried as appetizers. The cocktail was incredibly refreshing and perfect for a warm afternoon! I didn't get andouille on the deviled eggs which I later regretted because I felt like they needed a little crunch. The Salmon BLT was tasty. Although I wish they didn't put such a thin piece of Salmon on it. The Cajun tater tots were cooked to perfection and absolutely amazing! I would go back just for those alone. All in all, a really good culinary experience! read more

Came here for my cousins birthday with a party of 8. My husband and I split the chicken wings and I got the chicken biscuit for my entree. Both were very tasty but something seems to have changed with the wings once last time we got them. Can't really tasty that it was grilled. The server was kind but messed up the surprise cake we got for my cousin. She brought out share plates before the cake so that gave it away. We also paid for a cake cutting fee and they tried to cut the cake at the table which would have been a mess. Had to ask them to take it back to kitchen to cut. read more

Lagarde has really amped up their brunch menu. Before it was more like a lunch menu, but when we were there last week, it was pretty legit. The food was all really nicely, presented and prepared, and there was not a bad bite to be had. The only Negative thing I could say was that the drinks were slightly lackluster, but I think it was because the ice melted on the patio. read more

How have I never heard of this place before??? Had some family in the area who wanted to do brunch and this was close to all of us. We did have a reservation for brunch which I thought was because they were quite busy for a Saturday!! Only disappointment of the trip was we tried getting the cinnamon roll but they didn't have it that day which was sad. But the rest of the meal was great. I went with the breakfast BLT and that was a huge sandwich. Delicious food and such a cute vibe. Would definitely be fun to sit outside. read more

A friend of mine sent us an Instagram reel and mentioned she wanted to celebrate her birthday here. I thought, "Why not? The place looks cute." I wasn't overly excited, assuming it was more about the atmosphere and decorations. Boy, was I wrong! The food was amazing I kid you not! They do a fantastic job with the decor, changing it monthly to match the holiday. What We Ordered: * Brussels Sprouts: Super good and crispy! * Calamari: A bit salty for my taste, but still enjoyable. * Oysters: We ordered two of each variety they had (sorry, I can't recall the names). They were small but fresh! I'm not usually a fan of Gulf Coast oysters, but these were perfect. Bayou Pasta: Let me brag about this dish! Our server, who was very nice, recommended it as one of their most popular items. I can see why, it was bussin'! So good that I came back the next day to get some to go! Hanger Steak: Surprisingly, this was a hit too! Cooked perfectly, tender, and amazing! read more

Great after work evening location for a Friday! The parking seems a little full but there's lots of locations sharing one lot. However, people are coming and going pretty fast. As you walk up you'll see a patio out back. I saw kids and a dog and thought about my pups! Walk inside and there's plenty of seating. I sat at the bar and was greeted shortly after. I enjoyed a voodoo-Rita. It was amazing with a small punch! If you enjoy oysters or thinking of trying them... the grilled oysters were superb. Finished my evening off with the pasta but didn't get through half. The staff were very nice and friendly. read more

Hidden gem in Chamblee, how did I pass by this place so many times and not eat? The food is SO good. The service was amazing, our server stayed ready for our bottomless mimosa refills. My shrimp and grits and salad were so good. I literally ate for 2 hours to get through it all. It's a big restaurant with indoor and outdoor spaces. The inside is the restaurant is modern but also has big screens for a sports bar vibe. Definitely will be a regular here! read more

I have only came here for dinner so coming here for brunch was definitely a different experience. I do feel like my food was okay. I started with oysters first and I felt like they did not taste as fresh as I usually would have them. They were still good though. when it came to the chicken and French toast, the French toast was amazing. I love French toast honestly and the chicken on top was good too, but the pickled peppers did not taste good on top of all of it. I tried to take them all off, but the flavor was just soaked in the chicken, so it gave it a sour taste. I did not like the peppers at all. I love the french fries though . My friend sent her barbecue shrimp back because it did not look like barbecue shrimp and it was pretty watery. We were a little confused by that dish. Other than that, the experience was great, our server was very attentive, and it was just a beautiful day to be outside . Love the outdoor side. read more

Omg is this place under new management?? Because what our incident maybe be because of an off day but I feel so let down by a few people. First off I walk-in (1:27pm) and since it's a nice day, I ask to sit outside. I'm with my mother who uses a cane too. Well the only table was directly in the sun and I thought I was okay with it until it came full force and I was on fire. So, I went to the hostess desk to ask for another table and to inform them that a party was leaving and we'd like to move. She tells me to take it up with my server. Okay fine. After that we waited another 15 mins or so, then after they left I informed our waiter that they moved. We waited probably another 25 or so mins and were moved instead to an inside table and not the one we asked to move to. I guess so he didn't have to deal with us. I felt the service and blatant disregard for customers could be felt from everyone who saw me and my elderly mother sitting in the sun burning up for 40+mins. We were then moved inside where the new waitress who then (had to feel the brunt of the situation) took us. The only thing that made this experience better is because the woman server who took us noticed we were just sitting outside being ignored and she apologized on behalf of our dumb guy server with stupid dangly earring. I'm wondering was there no manager on duty either?? Because how did you not notice people just sitting with no food or drinks for so long?? I'm so embarrassed, I was hyping this place up. Also let me add, that the buser kept coming outside looking at the dirty table going back inside, I was confused if he was the actual buser. HOWEVER, once we were moved inside he bused every single table and picked up every little speck of trash wth???Anyway, over an hour after being here we got to order and some time after we got our food. We both ordered the pear salad (mom loved it), the salmon bites, and the Thai shrimp, both appetizers have shrunk in portion size since I got them last. But I guess that's okay because they also lowered the price of them. The salmon bites taste different but still decent. The shrimp went from maybe like 10 shrimp to 3 large sized ones. Do yourself a favor and when you come in just sit at the bar or right away ask to sit in Naomi's section. She's a gem. read more

Came here for a friend's bday. The service was ok where we had to wait for food and drinks and server disappeared after handing us our bill. Therent weren't many vevegetarian options so settled for a salad and fruits were very tart and did not go well with the orange dressing making it unedible. I unfortunately felt like I was not ffull after a salad but getting hold of server was difficult so settled on the tab. Unfortunately, server disappeared after handing the bill so tried to use their online pay option. The restaurant put on a scam online pay fee which they shouldn't since no one is doing any additional work and this was an extreme turn off for me. I like to pay for services but adding scam fees to extra revenue for the restaurant is not ok for me. Needless to say, I will be avoiding this place after turnoff of a meal and extra scam fees added to the bill. read more

I met a few girlfriends here for a birthday dinner. It was easy to make a reservation online on resy. I was lucky with parking, but there's also a lot where you can find parking. We were sat down when we arrived and they have a special menu and a regular menu. We got a sangria which was delicious and the gin drink I got was had a weird herby or anise taste and I just got a regular gin tonic which was fine. I enjoyed the wedge salad that we shared. The bacon was crunchy and blue cheese was not over powering. My girlfriends got a smashburger and also the chicken burger and both were tasty and I enjoyed the pan seared trout I got. They brought us the donut for desert with happy birthday written and the donut were bouncy and sweet. Overall, the meal was good. However, the booth I was sitting at kept getting bumped and moved the entire meal which was annoying. I paid with the QR code on the table which charges you $2.99. And the desert was not complimentary for a birthday and I wish they would have given us a choice. It was a nice place to try and we did have a nice time. They do have games on the screens if you come on a Saturday. read more

YUM! I made a reservation for me and five friends for a Friday night around 6:45 for the dining room. I'm not from the area but saw some good reviews and wanted some good southern food while in GA. I'm so glad I found this place. When you first walk in, you immediately notice the neat painting on the wall with the bright colors and the beautiful light fixtures. It's also right next to a baseball field with some walking paths and beautiful trees so it's so lush and green and gorgeous. We ordered and were hopeful about the food. When things started coming out, we were so impressed by the size and quality of each dish. A lot of us are very foodie-minded and not only was each dish delicious, it was also plated so attractively. One person ordered the airline chicken and said it was one of the best chicken dishes ever. Another had the jambalaya and loved it. Two others had the steak and frites. I tried a bite of the steak and it was absolutely perfect and tender and flavored so well. My friend and I had the catfish po boy special sandwich. While I didn't need the fries, the catfish was some of the yummiest I've ever had and was so crunchy while also flakey and had a combination of flavors. Three of us also ordered oysters because...why not...when in Rome, right? I have had many oysters before since I've lived by the ocean my whole life and these were not only good but they were HUGE. I've honestly never seen them so big. But they were good. And it wasn't even oyster night where they are $1 each but they were like $2.75-3.50 each which was still great cost and since they were so big it felt like an even bigger deal. Our meal was expensive overall. And my only complaint would be that even though we were a party of six, they automatically added a 20% gratuity to the bill. Usually it's parties of 8...and usually it's 18%...and they even asked if we wanted to add an additional tip. Our service wasn't amazing but it was adequate and it'll do. So I just paid the bill and will still look back at the experience and remember it fondly. And if I'm ever in GA again, I might find my way back to this restaurant as it was delightful and an overall great experience. read more

While visiting the Atlanta area, my partner and I had the pleasure of dining at Lagarde American Eatery, and wow -- what an experience! The food was absolutely incredible. Oh my gosh, those oysters! So fresh and packed with flavor -- we're still thinking about them. We also really appreciated how accommodating the staff was with dietary restrictions (gluten, corn, and oats allergies) -- they were kind, knowledgeable, and made sure we had plenty of safe, delicious options. The service overall was warm and welcoming. We sat outside and loved the vibe -- great music, a cozy atmosphere, and top-tier food. Highly recommend Lagarde and we'll definitely be back next time we're in town! read more

Decent spot for lunch. Drinks are good and festive, but they were "out" of two of the drinks of the menu and acted inconvenienced at the request for a regular espresso martini instead of a frozen one - I do consider that to be a standard bar drink at this point. Food was decent but very salty. Service was a bit lacking. It was a beautiful patio! It's worth a casual visit. read more

It's a whole list of things I can say about this place. However let's be professional and it's story time. Very warm and inviting, does make you feel welcomed when you arrive. Staff very cool and down to earth. Went there for a family member's birthday drinks to chill. We ordered the calamari, goat cheese, shrimp po boy with Cajun fries, my wife ordered a smash burger and fries. The rest of the table.. I'm not going to get into that, my shrimp..no seasoning neither the fries, completely bland, my wife burger...salty. Another guest at our table ordered a salad without tomatoes because she's really allergic to it and they gave her salad that should be without tomatoes extra tomatoes on it so she completely switched up her order. Her meal came with fries and completely salty fries. I ordered a mocktail.. every establishment I've been to and ordered a mocktail, these be some delicious drinks.. these drinks tasted like Raspberry Kool Aid. I ordered another one because I miss drinking Kool Aid lol. Naw it was horrible, my shrimp po boy was horrible and the bread was hard. Like stale hard. The other guest ordered one too and same results that's why I knew I wasn't crazy. One guest ordered fried okra that was on the menu and they informed him they don't have anymore. It seem like the kitchen didn't want to fulfill the order idk. I just thought that was weird. I didn't take any pictures of the food because when it's horrible I don't promote it. Staff friendly however too laid back. Especially everything that came out was a miss, either bland or over salty. I'm really fair about my food reviews and you can see from my previous reviews I'm very honest. I don't respond to management when they reach out because being a patron at food establishments should be respected because we all work for our money and since we choose to celebrate here and food below top tier is horrible. Also my bill, with my wife came up to $170. Just us with 20% gratuity automatic. I will not return or recommend. The restaurant looks nice inside though and at a beautiful location. read more

After reading several reviews, I was optimistic about selecting LaGarde as the location to celebrate a friend's B-Day. We decided to do brunch, and sat on the patio that overlooked a trail reminiscent of the beltline. The interior and exterior decor was well appointed, with a vibrant bar, the interior dining from the covered patio. Beyond that I noticed additional seating outside that wasn't covered near a Green Egg smoker. Our server Hannah promptly greeted us and took our drink orders while allowing time to review the menu and ask questions. In addition to the brunch menu, there was also specials listed to allow for many delicious sounding options. The B-day lady ordered a veggie omelette which allowed for customization of ingredients. I ordered the jambalaya which came with Sunnyside up eggs. As that was not my preference, I specifically asked for egg whites only. Prosecco and coffee were our beverages of choice. The food wait time was average for the number of people in the restaurant and the accommodation of our preferences. Unfortunately, my eggs were not cooked to specification; one was the advertised sunny side up and the other appeared to be fried. The jambalaya lacked the Cajun flavor accustomed to receiving in NOLA and a few other metro Atlanta restaurants. The manager discounted my meal with an apology for the egg debacle. The omelette was tasty and my friend enjoyed the fans installed on patio to keep the air circulating. I truly enjoyed the location and the decor per attached pictures. Location had ample parking and several other shops. Did not care for the order mixup or the wait staff throwing drinks that people left on the table into the area situated just beyond our tables. I do understand that it probably was easier to carry empty glasses, but still daunting nonetheless. Overall cute spot and possibly worth revisiting. read more

Started off the night with one of their Holiday Drinks called the Dirty Santa which includes eggnog. I would say the drink was a 10/10, along with the dirty hot chocolate. We did substitute the shot of liquor for Baileys. As for appetizers I got six oysters which were fresh and nice, they have them for 1.00 on Tuesdays. The next item I had was the deviled egg, they were okay as they were pretty cold and I prefer them room temp. It was topped with a piece of Fried chicken, I will give it a 7/10. Lastly for my Entree I had the Atlantic Salmon which was a 10/10, I just wished the sides were more especially for the price. Overall I had a great experience as they are currently doing a christmas theme so the restaurant is decorated nicely. I will come back soon! read more

I wasn't too impressed with this establishment. So I'll just jump right in with the food first. Everything pictured wasn't tasty at all outside of the shrimp, which was just okay. The fried green tomatoes, smoked wings, gumbo, and I can't speak on the broccoli because my friend ordered that, and they didn't have any complaints. I wanted to love the pumpkin cheesecake, but I didn't get the chance to try it because it came out with a hair stuck to it :( Now the new old fashioned was the star of the show. Anything else at this point didn't even matter. Our server, I forgot her name was friendly and pretty much absent like Ferris Bueller's Day off, but who cares this gave my friend and I, time to catch up. Lagarde has a cute little setup and patio that would be nice in the warmer months, but I definitely won't return to find out unless it's for drinks only. The food you can miss me with it. read more

Since this location in Chamblee opened, Mark and I have enjoyed all of our visits here. Service and food is consistently very good. The happy hour specials are a great value for both the quality of the food and cocktails. We treated ourselves again to the happy hour specials and regular menu items. Tuesday is our favorite for the raw oyster specials of $1 per oyster. The oysters were fresh and had medium brine. We ordered the happy hour deviled eggs served with a fried shrimp and green goddess dressing, plus the seared scallops served over parsnips puree and corn succotash. We also ordered the pomegranate and pear salad and a variety of cocktails. All of the food service was excellent!!! read more

Our go-to in Chamblee. Great vibe, great food, AMAZING service (ask for Naomi - she's the best)!

We decided to travel from our northern suburbs to Brookhaven to try a new (at least new to us) place. We found Lagarde and decided to give it a try. This is a cool, hip spot, which seems to match the eat, play, live development it sits in. As you walk in, there is window that displays fresh oysters on ice with a display kitchen beyond it. That display prompted us to order some fresh and briny oysters from VA. They were served with local hot sauces, horseradish, saltines. mignonette, and cocktail sauce. We ordered crispy Brussels sprouts which came with a remoulade . They were fine, but not much different from the many other places serving the same thing. Is it just me or are Brussels sprouts becoming the hummus and pita of the 2020's? We also ordered the kale and arugula salad. It had apples, orange segments, craisins, pepitas, and quinoa (needed a microscope to see it) with an orange vinaigrette. I'm not sure there was any kale in our salad, and the vinaigrette was pretty harsh for it having orange in it. For entrees, we ordered the trout. They were out so a maple glazed salmon with roasted broccoli and very pedestrian smashed potatoes ( they really had no taste). We also got jambalaya with shrimp, andouille, and chicken. It was a nice portion and had a pretty authentic taste. But, it came out sort of lifeless, with no garnish or anything. For $19, we expected more. Lastly, we got the shrimp po'boy with tots. This has some sweet, fresh shrimp, some of the same remoulade, lettuce, tomato, and sweet pickles ( a nice surprise touch). I chose tots as my side, which were crispy, and seasoned with some sort of Cajun seasoning. They were addictive. The service was very present, cleared plates regularly, and we did not thirst for water. The food came pretty quickly as well. Ultimately, I feel this should be 3.5 stars and not the 4 as marked above. The prices are jacked up ( like everywhere), and there are some details getting missed (mashed potatoes and salad). It's a nice addition to the area, though I don't think I'd travel to it again. read more
