Okay, this used to be one of my favorite restaurants because the food was it's really good at one time. Tonight's dinner tasted like conagra. You could tell I had been microwaved because of how hot it was. Nothing fresh tasting here, the boilliabasse pasta's seafood wasn't fresh either. probably will not be going back there read more

Every aspect of this restaurant was absolutely amazing!! The food was superb along with the service! We were served by Alex who had fantastic recommendations. We made a reservation and got seated right away. We even decided to sit outside since they had heaters which moved closer to our table. They even had little lamps for each table which you can tap for more or less light. There's plenty of free parking in the garage. We started with the Hush Puppies and the Lobster Bisque. We were sold on the Bisque after being told it's made from scratch in-house. Both were delicious!! As our entrees we ordered two of the Ocean Specialities: Shrimp and Grits and Scallops. The Scallops were cooked to perfection and came with a creamed corn spread and butternut squash succotash. The succotash was even better than I imagined!! We finished the meal with the warm Brownie Sundae. It was definitely enough for two people to share. I enjoyed it being so hot and gooey and the ice cream complimented it perfectly! We had such a great experience here and can't wait to come back soon! read more

Loved: the "beachy" ambiance. The hostesses and waitress were so friendly. The berry mocktail....AMAZING. We were super impressed by the kids tender plate. I could not eat the lobster bisque :/ that needs a bit of work. My husband had the lobster roll and it was on the smaller side but yummy. The bathroom needed some tending... Overall, pretty good. read more

I got an invitation to come dine here for my birthday dinner, and I've always been meaning to try it and boy am I glad I did. Upon arriving we were greeted by a friendly hostess and got seated immediately. Our server was very helpful with describing the menu items. We decided on a few happy hour appetizers, oysters, and the blackened grouper with lemon caper sauce (delicious). They then offered a birthday dessert on the house and we picked the key lime pie. All in all, it was a wonderful way to spend my birthday evening eating some delicious sea food. Staff/service: 5 Cleanliness: 5 Food: 5 read more

We liked the vibe and found most of the food and drinks to be very good. The Hush Puppies were a big hit at our table. The clam chowder was not very good. Not one of the four of us liked it. Bland and watery. Redfish meal was good but we had three fingerling potatoes total. If we would have just ordered ot cia the other option we would have had a huge amount ofqshed potatoes. Service was not great. Rarely saw our server. Glasses and dishes left and we had a very small high top table. OneI tea refill in an already Small glass over a 2 hour period. read more

We normally go to restaurants at Avalon but had heard mixed reviews about Ocean & Acre and thought we would try it out for dinner. Firstly, Brittany was a very nice waitress but runners bring the food out.. They needed to be did followed up on with their service. The drinks were good . The Lobster Bisque had a sour cream dab plopped in the middle. OH no not that! Oops the runner forgot the soup spoon and never came back with it. Had to locate Brittany to bring one. The fried oysters and raw oysters were excellent. The surf and turf was prepare very well and so was the Lobster Roll. We both ordered a side of broccolini. The problem was they were so big they were not tasty. I read more

Good location in halcyon, I love the indoor and outdoor seating. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful. it was a little loud inside but the decor was pretty. The burrata app was good, more of a tomato sauce than I was expecting, but the bread was delicious. the hush puppies/fritters were tasty. and we loved being able to take the rest of our drinks to go! read more

First time here and certainly won't be the last. Food was good and tasty. Beverages were quick and delightful. To be honest though, the prices for certain items were not worth the quality. $36 for the lobster roll but I've had better for less. Don't get me wrong, it was a good roll, but I'll stick to highland area prices on those. Fish and chips was delightful Clacks soft crunch perfect crunchy l bite Tartar sauce not too tangy. On the sweeter side and very creamy. Packed with flavor Fries cooked perfectly and pair nicely with a dip into the tartar sauce Oysters were so fresh, I swam. Or did I? Salt was minimal on the western to me and I loved it. One drop of the spice did the trick for me. Lobster roll packed full of tender goodness Caesar salad amazing light sauce read more

Great ambience wonderful food! Great happy hour! Best oysters on the half shell! Drinks always good!

Went from "let's just poke our heads in" to one of my new favorite places real quick! Started with the New England Clam Chowder... Absolutely delicious. I'm a huge chowder head and I already want to go back not even 12 hours later. Anyway... We got mussels and a crab cake which were so dang good. The GM overheard me and my friend talking about searching for the best scallops and he brought us some!! And of course they were SO DANG GOOD! It was me and my friends birthday over Thanksgiving so it sort of got overlooked but the crew made us feel so special and happy. (Thank you guys!) You can tell they have the "well oiled machine" thing going on. So of course I'll be back. Loved it, loved it, loved it! read more

The restaurant is ok but the price way too high. We took a fish and ships and a crab cake and it costed us $90!!!!!! The fish and ships was ok, the crab cake was good but really small (3 small cakes with a little salad.) So long, you are too expensive for what you provide read more

Had dinner at this restaurant because it was recommended. We were seated at a wobbly table to start and could not be fixed. Service was rushed and very 2 star. No specials or welcome or recommendations. Menu was quite disappointing to be honest for a seafood centric place. Selection was poor. No daily specials. Heirloom salad was served with brown lettuce and missing ingredient in description. I asked if time was sushi grade - yes - was prepared terribly and then sauce was ice cold and the cut had so much gristle it was inedible. Replaced with "grilled jump shrimp " that were grilled shrimp cocktail about 21-25 in size. Overall disappointing for the price and location- I would expect more. read more

Went there for the first time this week and it was just great! The octopus was yummy and delicious served over a potato salad that was quite unique. The mussels were also yummy and the filet mignon was perfect. Had a half price bottle of wine and enjoyed the nautical decor and simple setting. Full bar, of course and Outstanding service. Cale made our dinning experience extra special as he was very helpful in guiding us through the menu. We can't wait to go back. read more

We had a friend who was celebrating her birthday and chose Ocean and Acre for her dinner. We had a great evening! Started with a round of drinks: I had the Golden Hour, which was fresh and delicious! I also had the OA Seasonal Mule, and the margarita which all were fresh and pleasant, given the weather and outdoor weather which was beautiful on their outdoor patio. We chose a few appetizers for the table, the tuna carpaccio, burrata, crab noodle cakes, and hush puppies. The hush puppies are spectacular, the sauce with it and chives are a tasty combination. The crab noodle cake is unique, instead of breadcrumbs they use vermicelli noodles and make them crispy. Came with asparagus and roasted tomatoes which made for a nice entree if you go that way. The burrata comes with a red pepper pesto which isn't for everyone but it has a really robust flavor that went well with the grilled bread. Finally, we loved the carpaccio but it's not a really great dish to share. Fresh and beautifully plated. Only two people ordered entrees, one had the shrimp and grits and loved it! Another was the fish of the day which was pan seared grouper which he loved also, not a crumb left on the table. Our server was great, around when we needed something but not overwhelming. Just all around great meal. The next time we will try oysters or some other items that looked good (calamari and mussels looked very good!) read more

The service and atmosphere here is awesome! I wish I could say the same about the food! I ordered the wedge salad and the fish and chips! The salad was GOOD! However, my main dish is fish and chips was tasteless! Absolutely no salt or any seasoning added to the batter. In addition, the tarter sauce was just as bland. I may come back and give them another try.. Maybe read more

We thought the food was just ok. The highlights were the grilled fish, fish sandwich, and the Cesar salad. The lobster roll was a good size! The service was not good, the waitress said we couldn't sit at a table booth, even with a reservation, because we didn't have 5 people in our party, but we had 4. They then proceeded to offer another table the booth who had a party of 3. I think they need to work on customer service if possible. read more

Don't bother going here! Been here twice and let down both times! Had to send four drinks back (we started at the bar and sent two back and then at the table my mom was served two bad drinks. One was vodka tonic with flat tonic water and barely any vodka), the food was cold, we split something and they didn't give us any extra plates, the servers brought us the wrong food. We have had a BAD experience here twice. Nothing tastes good enough to spend this much money read more

We love going to Halcyon. We have eaten at most of the restaurants there. Ocean & Acre has good food. The service is good. My problem with them is what they charge for an alcoholic drink. I ordered a double vodka tonic. They charged me $32.00. That is totally wrong!!!!!! It was more than the meal I ordered. I will never go back!! Charge a little more than a regular drink but not twice the price. They must not appreciate their customers very much. $16.00 for a common mixed drink is totally awful but to double it for 2 shots of alcohol is customer abuse. They do not deserve mine or your business. Find somewhere else to eat. read more

We made reservations for Sunday night for my birthday. For dinner, we got the raw oysters, ahi tuna tartare,seared Hawaiian ahi tuna, sword fish and hot buttered lobster roll. The Seared Hawaiian ahi tuna was a huge disappointment. I found maybe one piece of mango and pineapple in my "mixed greens" and no avocados or taste of mango vinaigrette. It looked just like the side of salad that came with the lobster roll. For the price, big disappointment and didn't have much flavor either. For dessert we got the lava cake with ice cream and creme brulee which were really good. read more

This restaurant was decent in the context of being in Cumming, GA, but they need to step up a few things. Service was good. Food - tuna was good, oysters were small but tasted fresh and hush puppies were decent. The filet had an absolutely overpowering "burnt" grill taste, which unfortunately ruined what seemed like a decent cut. The swordfish tasted like it was at the end of its shelf life, with a distinctly fishy taste. This was also served with a burnt taste and grill marks, despite being "pan seared". Staff said this was the normal preparation method, which doesn't make sense, grilling something that's pan seared. The kitchen graciously cooked another serving of the swordfish, but it had a strong fishy smell and taste. We decided not to send anything else back, but I heard the table behind had the same complaints about their swordfish to their server. For sure they have some work to do. read more

Ordered: Golden Hour Coral Sands Chargrilled Oysters NY Strip Surf Turf Drinks were terrible, tasted like juice in melted ice left unattended for many hours. It was very watered-down and did not taste like a cocktail at all. I doubt there was any liquor, if much. I would pass on the drinks. Chargrilled Oysters was not at all chargrilled...no flavor except from the sweet natural taste of the oyster. So the oyster would have been better left alone. You also get shell particles along with it so that you could chip a tooth so I had to be very cautious eating it, someone in the back is shucking it incorrectly. I would pass on that unless you want to visit your dentists. The steaks were cooked correctly, probably the only thing they did correctly all night, in addition to the taste of the mash potatoes(buttery and flavorful). Good job to the sides chef!! Brocolini was a bit undercooked but I'll take that over it being wilted. Back to the steaks, no salt...please salt your steaks chef! I shouldn't be expected to put A1 sauce here like Longhorn. The peppercorn sauce they provided was horrible, itself was not good nor did it compliment anything...better off saving those ingredients for something else. I would say I enjoyed my little lobster tail, very flavorful but so overlycooked, it was tough. Overall, service was subpar...waitress didn't seem enthusiast, expected me to resuse my utensils after putting them on the table, and had to be asked to refill my drink. My first time here and last time ever...$144 meal for oyster shells, unflavored meat, and lackluster experience. read more

Ocean & Acre - Fried Shrimp & Cod! The appetizer, Calamari & Hush Puppies were amazing. The churro caramel cake with ice cream was divine. - Seafood Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

Enjoyable meal. The prices were quite high considering everything. The service was very friendly yet professional. The wine service was that of a sommelier. Although there could have been a few more interactions with our waiter, I did not tip differently for this gap. We had an appetizer of the whitefish dip. It did not come with very many chips compared to the portion of dip. We did ask for more but the delivery of them was delayed until well until into our entrees. We ate them without dip at the end of our meal, finishing up our wine. The dip itself was not stellar, not really. It had big globs of cream cheese in it. Meh. I ordered the Ocean & Acre salad with salmon. It was amazing. My dining companion had the lobster roll which was only fine, not excellent. For $35 it seems like it ought to have been excellent. It wasn't a fantastic experience. But it was a very tasty salad, and a great wine Altogether, the wine, the app, and two modest entrees, we were at $128. Probably next time I would try the tuna poke bowls and be done with it. read more

We came in on a Tuesday evening. My husband ordered 3 of the premium East coast raw oysters and we started with the Point Judith Rhode Island fried calamari. He enjoyed the oysters. The calamari wasn't as hot as I'd like and was kind of rubbery; not sure if it was over cooked or that happened while it was sitting under the light. The flavor was ok, but some of the pieces were just too large for me. It was like a whole baby squid on the plate on one end. lol. It could've used a tad bit more of the smoked alder salt. I enjoyed the sweet drop chilies. The roasted garlic herb crema could use a tad more flavor. I had the NOLA Style shrimp & grits and was very satisfied with the dish. It was very flavorful with the smoked bacon. The shrimp were large and cooked perfectly. I'd definitely order this dish again. My husband ordered the Spatchcocked chicken and it was also very good. It tasted like it was brined as it was very juicy, tender, & flavorful. The hominy was tasty. The server was slow to come back to the table to refill our water & we had to look around for her to bring the check. She was pleasant when she was present. The restroom and restaurant were clean and the staff were friendly. I'd visit again. Next time I'll try the hot buttered lobster roll. Enjoy! read more

Ocean & Acre in Halcyon is a beautiful surf and turf restaurant offering ample indoor seating, an indoor/outdoor bar, and patio seating. I brought my mom for dinner and she had the watermelon salad and thoroughly enjoyed it. I had the lobster roll, which was tasty and generously covered in butter. However, it was a tiny portion and steep pricing at $36. I'm giving Ocean & Acre 4 stars due to the increase in prices. read more

Ocean & Acre is our new favorite seafood restaurant in FoCo. FoCo desperately needed another seafood restaurant, and we're so grateful O&A decided to grace us with their presence. Their well decorated space is open and inviting. Their beautiful patio gives you beachy vibes. We're huge fans of seafood. HUGE. Theirs is always fresh and absolutely delicious! We've tried several fish entrees, dozens of oysters, and a handful of apps. We love everything! The fish is always, always cooked perfectly. I cannot come here and not order a dozen oysters and crab noodle cakes. They're a must! The cocktails are phenomenal. You really can't go wrong with any of them. My favorite so far is the ebb tide. It's a mixture of montego bay rum, caramelized pineapple juice, mint, orange shrub, and campari. Pretty and refreshing! The service is excellent. The staff members are always friendly and attentive. During our last visit, our oysters had rocks or pieces of shells in them, and the staff replaced them right away. The general manager also personally apologized and made sure the second order of oysters were shucked better. They were perfect, and the gesture was greatly appreciated. Items are a tad bit pricey, but understandable for the level of service and the quality of the food. Most seafood restaurants on the same level in Atlanta are priced similarly. However, I did notice some of the item prices have been adjusted. For example, one large crab noodle cake used to be $19 and now they're $16 for two small to medium crab noodle cakes. Every experience has been nothing short of wonderful. We will look forward to our next visit! read more

They jumped the shark (or more like oyster) for my 1st ever visit. We arrived 90 minutes into the National Oyster Day celebration event (which advertised walk-ins would be welcomed), and we were denied a table by the host. He shared with my party that the manager had instructed him to tell customers they were no longer accepting walk-ins, that they were way behind in service, and there was no opportunity to accept reservations for a future time slot later in the afternoon before the end of their advertised oyster day event. Maybe try again next year. Maybe never again. read more
