Making reservations is really simple via OpenTable. They have Valley parking which cost around eight dollars, but there is also a parking garage where you can pay by the hour. They have a pretty large dining room with an area for more private dining as well and they also have seating at the oyster bar. This is my fourth visit and each visit the food has been really good. For our appetizers we got my favorite the shrimp à la Plancha, but I did notice that the bread that comes with the dish has gotten significantly smaller. For dinner we had the fingerling potatoes, which I was not a fan of. They were pretty hard. I got the red fish for my entrée and we got the collard greens for our vegetable and the greens tasted amazing. My friend ordered the She Crab Soup and Fried Oysters and said they were both delicious. I missed out on the Peach cake (out of season) but they had Apple and I liked it.

At our table, we had the spicy kale salad, fried oysters she crab soup, and blackened red fish.

If you're having trouble making up your mind, listen to me right now get the freaking blackened red fish, OK?! I almost forgot we also had dessert. Everyone except for me really loved that apple pudding cake. I thought it was just kind of a mess. But ohhhh, the Keylime pie!! A work of art! So very good.

The crab legs are steamed ... shouldn't be a problem. While I give this a 3. I'll try them again for the oysters. I'm hoping to have a better in house experience with those.

They have creative cocktails as the standards. We ordered the chargrilled oysters. They sounded yummy. Way too many breadcrumbs and oysters shrank to the size of a dime. I recommend leaving the breadcrumbs off. They have a list of raw oysters fresh for the day. We should have gone with that. What we loved was the long list of fish choices. The list includes the location where the fish is from. All fish is filleted. I had the red fish from BA. It was a nice meaty fish. My friend had Bronzino. We both at the whole thing. The lemon herb sauce was amazing!!! It was so good I wanted to drink it. They give you a nice bread basket, good for sopping up the sauce. The dessert list had all my favorites, sticky toffee pudding, key lime pie, white chocolate bread pudding. Our waiter LeTavius was the best. He was enjoyable to talk with. Answered all our questions and made sure we were happy with our food and made sure our water glasses were filled. We taught him the Hawaiian words for some of the fish. He was very good.

I came on a Friday afternoon during oyster happy hour, and it was packed. There's plenty of tables. However, because it was so busy, I'd recommend making a reservation in advance. I made one and came 5-10 min earlier and we were seated right away. But they gave us the table right next to the door so we'd feel the door opening and closing throughout our dinner. As for food, the $2 oyster deal applies to their regular oysters where you can get them grilled or raw and in either half a dozen or a dozen pieces. The oysters were overall kind of small. Honestly, the grilled oysters were better tasting than raw to me. The calamari was great though. However, the breading easily fell off. The garlic aioli is a good addition for more flavor combos. I wish the sauce could have been a little bit spicier but that's a personal preference. I tried their draftburger beer which on happy hour is $5. It's a good light beer if that's what you're into. Not bad. Cocktails were ranging $10-20. This place takes pride in their service and attitude - and you can tell from how they dress and how they run things. It's definitely a place to come back for whether it's for the oysters again or other entrees.

From the moment we arrived until the last bite, the entire meal was exceptional. We started with cocktails and oysters. Following our server Geral's recommendations, we ordered the Royal Hawaiian and the Fish House Punch--both were excellent choices. We also paired our oysters with the Miami Mint and Pickled Pepper Back specialty shots, which complemented them perfectly. For oysters, we took advantage of the happy hour selections: Chebooktook, Barnstable, Boomamoto, and Wareham. We also added Dixon Point, Little Harbor, and Mere Point oysters. Every variety was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. For our entrées, we shared the Fried Bread, Snapper Crudo, Coconut Fried Rice, Lobster Roll, and Tavern Burger. Every dish was outstanding and packed with flavor. It's hard to pick a favorite because everything exceeded our expectations. Tip: Try the Fried Bread with Snapper Crudo, or dip it in the sauce, or by itself. All three methods are fantastic and were recommended by our waiter, Geral. The food was A+, but what really elevated the experience was the service. Geral was knowledgeable, personable, and made fantastic recommendations throughout the evening. The atmosphere struck the perfect balance of hip, classy, and upscale, making it an ideal place for a special occasion. This was our first time dining in Inman Park, and Beetle Cat made it a memorable one. Five stars, two thumbs up, and a heartfelt thank you to Geral and the entire team for making my birthday dinner one I'll remember for years to come.

The oyster selection is probably one of my favorite things about this place. They have a really good variety, so there's always something different to try. And the fry bread is SO good. It's seasoned really well and has that salty and slightly sweet thing going on that makes it hard to stop eating. I will say I think the dinner menu is a little limited, so I wouldn't necessarily come here expecting a huge dinner selection. But for drinks, appetizers and lighter bites, I really like BeetleCat. The vibe is casual and fun, the service has always been good, and there are plenty of things I'd happily order again. Definitely a place we'll keep coming back to for apps and drinks!

Food: 5/5 We decided to try a leisurely lunch. The menu is not large, but it has enough variety to be interesting. Everything we tried was delicious. The smoked salmon appetizer portion was large, but the best part was the great flavor. I can see why this choice has been on the menu for years. The Vidalia onion soup will be a surprise for the non-Georgians who expect it to be similar to a savory beef broth like French onion soup. Georgia's onions from the Vidalia area are sweet and tasty enough to carry the soup without the help of a meat broth and the green pesto sauce offers a nice additional touch. The salmon on fresh salad was done perfectly. The panka-crusted cod with mashed potatoes and spinach was outstanding. Both were seasoned so lightly that the true flavors shone through. The portions were generous enough that dessert at the time would have been too much, but others can do as we did and take home one of the dessert choices. Next time we plan to try their sandwiches which looked yummy at other tables. Service : 5/5 Service was excellent from the pleasant greeting, through the entire meal. Our server, Clayton, couldn't have been more helpful with the menu, as well as being very efficient and amiable. He made sure our food was served promptly and our beverages glasses were full, and our requests were met quickly. Facility: The facility lends itself to the riverside experience from the canoe in the entryway ceiling to the flowers and bird feeders just beyond the patio tables. The white tablecloth ambiance informs you that this isn't a fast-food experience. There are tents set aside in a more private are of the garden as a lovely venue for special events Location : This isn't a quick roadside stop next to a 6-lane highway. Even though the restaurant is convenient to dine in an Atlanta suburb, the roads to the restaurant wind and meander for a short distance through one of the prettiest neighborhoods, with a canopy of large old trees, with lovely fences, hedges, and gates lining the road. There is courteous valet parking at the front door. The restaurant is not inexpensive but it is well worth the prices paid, in our opinion.

I'd understand if they stated it online or somewhere but they decide each evening whether or not they will take any takeout orders and then only way to find out is by calling. This is incredibly frustrating because you can't plan or count on being able to get food from there and with a menu as expensive as theirs that's just unacceptable, in my opinion. My impression is that they are stuck in the 1980s around when they opened and don't want to update the experience. Hence their post strict dress code and arbitrary takeout policy.

The restaurant was less than half a mile from the hotel where I was staying, and there was plenty of parking. When you walk in, there's a dining area to the right with a nice outdoor view.
