First impression visit. Party of 12. 5:30PM on a Saturday. Free parking lot! No validation required. Easy to park. We ordered the crab cake, rockafeller oysters, Calamari, fried whiting with corn and coleslaw, fried oysters with Zucchini fries and fried corn, crab legs, and salmon with cajun rice and fried corn. I paid for everything except the calamari and the fried oysters and my total was $92.91 before tip. Pros There was music playing. Enough to hear and dance to but can still have a conversation. The environment and contemporary decor is nice. The service was great. Our waiter, Dashawn, is kind and attentive. He made us feel like we were his only table, which is hard to do with a large party. He was always there when a drink was needed and we never waited too long before he would show up again to ask if everything was okay. The food is good. My salmon was grilled perfectly and the portion sizes on the fried fish are huge. On the fried whiting, we received 3 fried fillets as long as the plate along with the 2 sides. The fried corn was interesting and I thought it was delicious. It gave a savory crunch to the sweet corn inside and the coating wasn't too thick. Cons 20% gratuity on all tables AND to go orders. Please note there are rules with this establishment. The calamari was seasoned very well but it wasn't as hot as I thought it should be. It was warm- not cold but not hot. The cajun rice was again, seasoned very well, but it left a puddle of grease on my plate. You can see it in my pictures on the right side of the salmon. 10. Would I Recommend: Yes, just be aware of the rules and tipping policy. Ask for Dashawn, if available. Follow me here on Yelp and @jessreviewss on Tik Tok/Instagram for more. read more

The service was good and our server was very nice. The space had great energy and pleasant atmosphere. The portions were large but the food was average....nothing that stood out to call cajun cuisine. The band was good but the volume was too loud and we couldn't hear ourselves talking amongst the table. read more

The food was great after it finally arrived. I ordered the shrimp and oyster poboy which took over an hour to arrive. If I had known it was going to take this long to deliver some fried food, I would have left and went elsewhere. I was the first to arrive on the patio and the last to get served. I needed a little rest after driving 4 hrs to get here but didn't want to do a rest stop at a restaurant. read more

First, let me say I really enjoyed the food. The fish and fries were very, very good. The macaroni and dessert were just okay, but the fish more than made up for it. That said, there were a few things that caught me off guard. I requested water but wasn't informed it would be a $5 Smartwater. Also, the item I ordered was $4 more in the restaurant than what is shown on the website menu. The prices there need to be updated to reflect this. I also didn't expect automatic gratuity for a party of one, in addition to an extra fee for using a credit card instead of cash. The bottled water, the $4 menu difference (online vs. in person), and the credit card fee increased my bill by $10-$12. I'm a generous tipper, but I wasn't inclined to tip extra with the mandatory gratuity and these additional charges. Overall, I would recommend this place. However, I do think greater transparency would be appreciated by customers. read more

This is a small restaurant that I'm happy to discover. I was invited to an event and we had a good time. They play live music and the dj takes requests. The food was really good. Everyone's food looked delicious. I ordered grits and salmon croquettes. The grits were creamy and amazing! I also had a pina colada margarita and it was good and strong. I tried a bite of my friend's whiting and that too was really good. This place will be seeing me again!! read more

Popped up on a Thursday for their karaoke night. This is a local spot I've been meaning to go to in Austell because I was considering it for my birthday party and I've heard the food is truly amazing. I arrived around 8 PM and the place was pretty packed. Most tables were taken and the bar was full. I told the hostess it was a party of 1 and she found me a spot with some other ladies at the high top table. The menu had lots of options for seafood, cocktails and dessert. I ordered the Bob Marley to drink, grilled shrimp with Old Bay to start and the fried whiting with dirty rice & broccoli for dinner. The kitchen works very fast and food came out quickly. The seasoning, taste and presentation were on point. I ordered a second drink and it must have been a different bartender because it was totally different than the first pictured and was not great. They lost a star on this - it was a smaller oz size, no fruit garnish and still cost me $16.50. For a party of 1 - my total bill was over $70 with the 15% gratuity included. You can pay with the server or via the Toast app using the QR code. Beyond that - the DJ and music were great, karaoke was fun and a few people were celebrating their birthdays. We can't forget the line dancing! It was Austell's finest that came to play. Overall, I'd highly recommend checking them out. I see myself coming back a few times a month. Lots of New Orleans style dishes, grits, crab legs, po'boys and more. read more

This was an awful experience. It took an hour and a half to get my food. They charged me $20 at the door said I had to purchase $35 per person then gave some of my food to another party after waiting the hour and a half. The Manager asked me to work with her. I drove an hour and 10 minutes to get here. NO! I can't work with you. Poor Service. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone I know. Definitely not. Get it TOGETHER. read more

I like this place and have been here a few times but what happened today was disappointing. Their waitstaff needs to be trained a lot better. My husband and I came in on a Wednesday afternoon for the oyster special. I asked our waitress which oysters on the menu are $2? She responded, " all of them!" So we ordered a dozen of the Phenomenal oysters being that they were only $2. ** I almost forgot to mention once she served our food, she never came back. She just sat a table in the back and I had to call her over so that I could order dessert and get the check. Wasn't a fan of the Phenomenal oysters because it was too much of the toppings but we tried it because we thought it was $2 so the risk was worth it. Well when we received the check it was an additional $18 for the extras on the oysters (sauce and crab). We reiterated to the waitress that she told us ALL the oysters were $2 and we need to speak to the manager. Instead of going to get the manager she told us that the manager would tell us the same thing. She should've told her manager to come over to at least speak with us. I didn't want to get this young lady in trouble but she definitely needs to be properly trained before she encounters someone way less forgiving and calm. read more

Couldn't eat the gumbo because it was burnt and the waitress said they wouldn't take it off my bill. Atmosphere, music and drinks were ok, but I would never order the gumbo again. read more

This Restaurant Served my lady Maggots!!! The Kale was completely covered in crawling maggots, to the point where they crawled on my woman's wrist from the plate. This is unacceptable and a health risk to the public. My Woman is Sick in bed today after consuming this contaminated food. Do the employees not look at the food crawling with maggots before they serve the public??? Overall terrible experience and we will never come back to this establishment. read more

I can't with Phenomenal Seafood, it's fine that they add 17% gratuity to the bill, but our server advised she does not get anything from it, that it's only for the restaurant! Is this true??? Of course I want to tip her for her service, so that requires an additional 18%+ added to the bill. I ordered 1 combo and a drink & the bill came to $76.00 (I included the tip for the server)...I don't care how good the food is, Neva again! read more

Nice cool calm local seafood bar off E W Connector Austell, GA. Up front, staff go Way out of their way; Very Kind and Helpful; been here many times. Anything u need, they gets it. There are 6 wide large TVs in dining area in case u need c the game. Playing over speakers inside- contemporary hip hop / pop, I think ‍ :) Honestly dug their food, cooked practically right in front of u, come out piping hott. The 'Cajun' spice blends were v cool, vibrant, and alluring. The fried Oysters were above avg. for a GA 'Seafood Bar' ; regarded well by regulars. Their Salmon & Shrimp n Grits certainly nothing to sneeze at. Check out their pastas & varying Gumbos as well. Don't laugh- Asked for their hottest hot-sauce - got Tabasco :/ I'll definitely b back for their combos, and the SO kind service. :) read more

The place was dead. They were playing music from someone's phone that got a call in the middle of playing music so we had to wait a second. The food was decent not great. Server's took forever. Definitely not worth the price we paid. Will not be coming back. Also 20% Gratuity on all tables during happy hour is insane you end up paying full price anyway. Yeah stay away from here unless you just want to spend money read more

Great Food and Great Service and Ambiance Highly Recommended. I enjoyed the Friday Live Band. Outstanding read more

We ordered two different burgers they were large and well seasoned. Cooked as ordered. The venue is chilled and nice. A nice place for a solid meal or a decent drink. The live band (Traffic Jam) performance was excellent. However we were told it was a cover charge of $10 per person. I did not see any signs or notices, it was told to us by our waiter. Our waiter name was Devin he said the co-owner insisted on the "cover charge". He also said the tips are split with the bar and kitchen staff, implying he would like his own tip. He informed us that if they did not collect it at the door then it would be added to the check. However it was not on the check when we paid. There were two different totals on the check 1. cash transaction or 2. credit card transaction. We paid the check with credit and gave additional cash tip. A few minutes later our waiter came back to collect "the cover charge". Personally I'm doubtful about this cover charge. Would we return.... We are unsure since that left us sour, and it tainted our experience. read more

I take back my review because I just received a email saying I posted an inappropriate photo..with no explanation..such BS...you need to focus on your customer service and quality of fresh seafood instead of discrediting my professional Yelp elite photos. I will never patronize a petty overpriced pub as such again. Now as I remember it was my beautiful face on my off day ..wow you don't like to see customers enjoying their food. Such Goofs!!! read more

The food was PHENOMENAL! As the name intends. The seasoning was absolutely divine, the seasonings really reminds me of homemade southern cooking. I can't believe a place like this would be this far up north! The staff were so nice and the manager was a really cool guy! The ambiance was very club-y, it certainly was a chill vibe with a great choice of hip-hop music. 10/10, will definitely eat here again. The best place me and my family has ever eaten in Georgia, definitely did not disappoint. read more

The food was delicious. You must try the Fried Broccoli if you like Broccoli. Can I say it was best side I've had with my entree in a very long time. The service is awesome too...If Tay is your waitress you will receive excellent service. Tell her Tina said so. The ambiance is very relaxed and casual yet respectfuldress code. Treat yourself and enjoy!! read more

I'm so sick of these restaurants. Another lesson learned. They've already raised the prices of food and the food is not all that great. I came into this place....again....after my last review (which was about them charging more for online orders and charging my 2 party for a $10 band cover that we didn't even see. The band went on @ 8 pm. We arrived at 5:30 and was gone by 6:45 but was still charged for the band cover fee). This time, I walked into the restaurant to place my order and they charged $2 for a "to go fee". They don't tell you they charge a to go fee for your order. So, not knowing, I provided a $6 tip for (2) $8.99 catfish nuggets. They got over 30% tip out of me. I don't care if it's $1! They are showing they are going to get the extra out of you...regardless. So, if I ever decide to go back, that $2 will be their tip!! read more

The ambiance was nice. I ordered the crab claws and crab cake. The crab claws were a 5/10. They were oily. It was served on a bed of garlic bread slices. I bit one and it was a bite pure oil. The claws were not drained or the oil butter was poured on them. I don't know. The crab cake was delicious. These are reasons I will not go back (1) water (bottled only) is $3. (2) Gratuity is added to ALL checks 15%. I was eating alone. I didn't know about the gratuity until I received the check. (3) Then they had the audacity to ask if I wanted to leave a tip...Ummm No! read more

My food was very good! My only concern for myself and my friends is we were NOT i formed that gratuity is added to your ticket. the waitress brought the machine only with no itemized ticket so we UNKNOWINGLY paid gratuity twice the food is good....ask to see what you are paying for so you dont make the mistake I did read more

Fish cooked in old grease and too salty. But to top it off they charged my card once and said it didn't good though I was asked if charge was pending, I replied yes the waiter spoke to his manager and returned to me and said charge wasn't showing and asked me to tap my card again. I was informed that I would only be charged once this was on 12/21/25. On 12/23/25 both charges posted. I went into restaurant and requested the manger I was told he was busy and was asked to leave my information and that it will be zelle by Friday 12/26/25. No zelle no follow up I called back 12/26/25 was told the manger was not in and due to holiday it was delayed. Now 1/8/16 called to speak to manager Chef T or Bri. Was told neither one was there. Then I was informed the person I was speaking to is the person I spoke to 12/26/25 and she gave the message to manager. 1/8/26 still not correct for being billed twice. read more

You know what I had no expectations and really enjoyed my visit. I wanted REAL Catfish! Not that Swai Crap ppl pass off. And they did NOT disappoint! Service was A+.

Great food, drinks and service. Dined here on a Saturday night for a birthday party. The owner as well as the staff was super attentive.

Nice atmosphere with a DJ. Highly recommend!! read more

The choice was this place or Escos( word of mouth is Escos service is really slow on a Saturday) so we opted to try Phenomenal instead. Well bad call. 1 bartender out. Another waiter went back to school and 2 waitresses left and went to a cigar bar down the street. Unfortunately after our drinks we were forgotten about until closing. The owners(i think) apologize profusely and still got out food to go which they comped. I can understand how hard it is to get good help post COVID, so i will go back because the food was delicious. read more

I came in for Sunday brunch, just to try this place out. The inside is really cool, it feels like a bar/club/restaurant. The staff could have not been nicer to me. They had gave suggestions when asked which I like. I ordered a shrimp appetizer and shrimp & grits. They prepared the shrimp 3 ways for the appetizer bbq, garlic butter, & a spicy sauce. All very good. The shrimp & grits were solid. I really liked the creamy grits, similar to polenta but still gritty. (Gritty in a good way) they did the shrimp here blackened style with a squirt of butter on the shrimp on the grits. There is a good spot for shrimp & grits close to my spot now. This place was really good and I will be back. read more

Went for a birthday party that a friend was having there. I had checked out the menu online earlier in the day. Nothing really caught my interest, so I ate before going. It was St Patrick's weekend, so I ordered a Guinness and a Jamison. They are on the trend of a lot of Atlanta area restaurants/lounges that automatically add a gratuity to the check. So, those two drinks plus the 20% tip came up to $19. It's a nice vibe. read more

This was some of the most tasteless overpriced seafood I have ever had. I ordered the Brianna which included 3 blue crab. When I tell you I got 3 baby crabs that were overcooked to the point that they were mushy. They threw some foreign legs in the box to make up the difference. Some of the most bland seafood I have ever had..This was definitely a waste of money and time. read more

I hate to give a negative review because our Food was really good, but the service was absolutely horrible. The worse I've experienced. The waitress was on her phone the entire time. I had to ask her to service my family the entire time. I had to also ask her to check on our food. The manger had to let her know to come get our food because she was on her phone. I normally don't leave negative reviews or reviews at all but I want this business to do well. The service wasn't it. read more
