I had a whiting fish supreme combo ‍it was to live for. Can't wait for my next visit. Customer service was ok. The place was clean and soft music was playing in the background. read more

Visited this spot because it's near a relatives house. We paid $63 for a 20 oc Whiting. The hushpuppies w were half done so I placed them in ny airfryer. My cousin paid $14.99 for a large okra that was smaller than a large at Church's Chicken; in addition, it was not on the menu. It only listed $5.99 but no other sizes. The attitude of the staff waa nonchalant, unwelcoming, while one of them were rude, snatching a receipt from my cousin. The fish was bland and no seasoning. This was the worst food ever read more

I visited for the first time ever on 5-8-2026. This spot is deep in East Point. The reputation precede this place iykyk. Established in 1972. The first seafood restaurant in Atlanta GA. The food is cooked to order. Fresh hot and delicious. This fish sandwich is a sandwich and a half! Best fish sandwich I ever had! I got the fish supreme combo comes with fries and a can soda. Pull up and check them out definitely worth the trip not a disappointment. Great people with the customer service and environment. read more

If you don't mind traveling through the trenches to get food then here ya go! I ordered online that seems to be a problem but after a 45 minute wait I finally got food! It was pretty good but there are places with a little faster service. I will not give them a bad review but I can't give them five stars either. We will try them again because the food was decent! read more

Rahim's Seafood - Shrimp dinner - Southern Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

See all

If you're truly from Atlanta -- especially the Westside -- Rahim's Seafood needs no introduction. This place has been feeding the city since 1972, starting on MLK for 30 years and now holding it down on Campbellton Road for the last 18 years. That kind of longevity doesn't happen by accident. Rahim's was the first Black-owned seafood restaurant in Atlanta to serve fresh fish, and you can tell the legacy is still alive and well. The founder may be gone, but his daughter now runs the restaurant, and the quality, flavor, and heart are still there. Let's talk food. The Rahim wings with the special sauce are a MUST -- battered, crispy, and full of flavor. These are real old-school wings, not trendy, just done right. The whiting sandwich is huge and perfectly fried. The fried okra is crispy with zero slime. And the fried fish and shrimp platter? Fresh, hot, seasoned well, and the portion is generous. The real star for me was the homemade tartar sauce -- creamy, tangy, and perfect on both the shrimp and fish. You can tell it's made in-house and not poured out of a bottle. Rahim's isn't flashy or trying to be something it's not. It's consistent, historic, and rooted in the community. This is the kind of place generations grew up on -- and that matters. If you're visiting Atlanta and want real food with real history, or if you're local and somehow haven't been yet, do yourself a favor and stop by. Rahim's Seafood is a Westside staple and a true piece of Atlanta history. read more

Rahim's Seafood on Campbellton Rd is one of those spots that reminds you why Atlanta's Southside stays undefeated when it comes to good fried seafood. The fish and shrimp dinner is the star of the show -- seasoned just right, fried to that perfect golden crunch, and served hot like it never sat under a lamp for a second. The fish has that classic Southern flavor: lightly crispy on the outside, tender and flaky on the inside. You can taste the freshness. The shrimp are plump, well-seasoned, and not overcooked -- the kind of shrimp that actually snaps when you bite into it. Portions are generous, the sides hit the spot, and the service is fast even when they're busy. If you're craving real-deal fried seafood without the gimmicks, Rahim's delivers exactly what you came for. read more

Great spot. It's a typical hole in the wall--not much to look at from the outside but bursting with flavor and amazing food. It wasn't very crowded. I dropped in for a late lunch. The owners/attendants are very kind and make sure you understand the menu and get exactly what you ordered. They have a pretty extensive menu of various combinations of fish, shrimp, and the like. Parking is limited. They also have an assort of desserts that I didn't get a chance to try but that fish is amazing. The wait is about 15 minutes. There is a decent amount of indoor seating. The fish comes come with this delectable coleslaw, fries, and delicious shrimp. They do good fried seafood right. The hushpuppies are interesting. They are like a sweet, fried cookie. They are not like any hushpuppies I've ever had. Take that for whatever you think it means. But I love the fish and the shrimp and that terrific coleslaw. They have wings to but I don't see the point with all of that amazing seafood. The owner is very sweet and makes sure you get exactly what you ordered and what you need. Great spot! Get the floudner and the whiting! read more

Ordered delivery to hotel. Very disappointed. I ordered a Perch dinner. There were about 5 pieces of over fried dough. I broke them open hoping for the fish. There was nothing . Just clumps of disgusting crusty dough ! And some "OK" French fries. A small side of Cole slaw. which was the only thing palatable.. $28.77 !! Don't waste your time and especially not your money !! (Door Dash delivery guy was great, the quality of the food was no reflection on him !) read more

Atlanta native here that somehow never heard about this staple until after a YT short. At 6 months pregnant craving a GOOD PERFECTLY FRIED treat so glad I found this place. The fried shrimp was fantastic, great texture and well seasoned. Same for the hush puppies and fries. Mind you, we Doordashed and everything was still good. Glad to find a solid spot to send my husband when the craving hits. read more

Rahim's Seafood - Whiting and shrimp - Southern Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

First off, I'm allergic to shellfish so I have to be careful. The place is really clean! No fish smells in there at all. I asked my questions and the guy at the register answered accordingly. He set expectations and I waited. I got my order and went home. Great flounder! Will definitely be back. read more

This spot is next to a gas station and it's really small, expect to smell like fried fish when you leave. I got the fish and shrimp combo and the hubs got the supreme (fish sandwich). We waited 48mins. I was EXTREMELY disappointed, after the first 15 mins I went to the car. I called him and he said "still waiting" he finally came out and by that time I was STARVING (first meal of the time on a road trip) I opened the box to 2 nice size pieces of whiting and 1 tiny one. It was OK, but it NEEDED sauce. Tarter, hot sauce heck anything. There was NONE in the bag nor were there napkins. There were about 6 nice sized shrimp but they were bland like the whiting. The frozen to oil cooked fries were seasoned tho. The hush puppies (you get 2) wasn't edible. It was SWEET and oily. I know there's an oily belch to come. The hubs asked for his sandwich to be made without ketchup or tomato and YOU GUESSED IT both were on there. Will I return? ONLY if he decides to come back but I'll make sure to ASK for sauce for the fish and definitely ask them to hold the hush puppies (which is sad bc I'm a hush puppy LOVER). To top it all off, he also got a medium size Arnold Palmer, they gave him a small cup which they charged over $4 for. If they're going to charge $2 for lemonade and $2 for iced tea why not put it in a larger cup? Of course there's ice in this cup. read more

5 's across the board. The food was delicious and well seasoned. The staff were friendly and welcoming. I'd also like to add that at some fish places you can tell that the grease used has been reused several times over. But, that wasn't the case with Rahim's seafood. I'll definitely be back. read more

Visited this hidden gem today and was so elated. I had the Whiting, coleslaw, fries & hushpupies. Don't let the outside of the establishment fool you. There coleslaw really took me by storm and don't let me to brag on the beautiful hushpuppies. The cooks in the kitchen definitely know about food. My son had the wings and fish basket, he too was amazed with this place. We will surely return and so happy for your business. Blessings ahead! read more

My son ordered the 3 piece special and a cake for me the other day and i'm thinking about making Rahim's my go to resturant option.The deserts were beyond great and the employees made me feel welcome to ask for anything. 9/10 service and 9/10 food. The workers really made the atmosphere feel like a old school barber shop. read more

Food is always fresh and good! My favorite is the fish and shrimp dinner! The hush puppies are the best! My go to spot!

Our food was cooked to order. After receiving our food we got in the car and wanted a little taste. My bestie and i got so caught up in talking about how good the food was; before we knew it both our plates were half finished. Personally, i highly appreciated the fact of the food being cooked to order yet not scolding hot; very flavorable. Before we knew it, we had demolished our meals sitting in the car right there in the parking lot. We were so impressed, we reentered the establishment just to personally extend our gratitude to the amazing twin sisters. Needless to say, not only will i be returning here, sooner than later, but i highly recommend checking them out. read more

Doesn't look like much when driving past but please stop in! This was my first time trying them out and it was really delicious. I got the fried whiting dinner that came with fries, 2 hush puppies and coleslaw. I also got 2 sides of tartar sauce. While I wasn't a fan of the tartar sauce or the coleslaw, the fried fish was nothing short of amazing! Perfectly crisp and seasoned. The hush puppies were slightly sweet which I loveddd. Safe to say that I will be returning soon! PS I asked for a 2 piece whiting dinner and some how magically ended up with 3 pieces lol it was great read more

I experienced the food truck from this restaurant. I had the three whiting dinner which comes with French fries, coleslaw and hush puppies. For $20 I feel like a good amount of food came with the plate, but the quality left more to be desired. As far as quality goes, the fries tasted like they were frozen from the grocery store - nothing impressive. As far as preferences go, the Cole slaw was on the sweeter side. It's clear a lot of sugar went into that. Same for the hush puppies: I would describe them more like savory donut holes before I called them hush puppies. The sweetness of these two weren't my favorite, but I know I generally prefer savory so maybe they are someone else's bread and butter. Overall, good amount of food for the price and the food truck experience is cute, but I wouldn't return based on my experiences with the flavor choices. The level of fried food and sugar just made me feel kinda sick. read more

Owned by the rapper turned businessman Raheem The Dream, Rahim's is a good place to pick up great southern style seafood. I learned about this spot by word-of-mouf (as Ludacris would say) and was in the mood for seafood, so I left the office and journeyed from downtown out in the rain to honor my craving. Since I was pressed for time, I called in the order for a fish and shrimp dinner + okra + fries. If you have time to wait you can place your order upon arrival and then take a look at the wall of fame photos while your food is being freshly prepared. Anywhoo, thankfully the food was ready upon my arrival. I walked in to a clean restaurant and was greeted by the staff. The cook was sure to show me what he had prepared and once you acknowledged and agreed, you could then pay for your order and be on your merry way. The young lady at the register did a really good job of selling me on the lemonade that she had made, so I decided to bless myself with a large---light on the ice; please and thank you. Let's just say that neither the food nor the lemonade did not disappoint. Fresh and well seasoned seafood that is always cooked to order. No negatives, but rather a suggestion. It would be nice if they took a stab of making their own signature tarter/cocktail sauce instead of providing the packets. I'll definitely be back to patronize this spot! read more

Slow service, be prepare...but that's because the food is fresh and hot...Rahims has been in the community for a long time serving hit fish and shrimp. I love the Whiting sandwich..The portions are plentiful you definitely get your money's worth. When ever I have a fastfood seafood craving this is one of my go to spots. The parking is not that good. The resturant sits in a gas station plaza. You have to park in the parking lot of the next door business. But the food is worth the walk... The owners are twins sisters and they provide excellent customer service. Give them a shot, you wont regret it... read more

It was ok nothing really to brag about. I had the whiting fish and shrimp. It came with fries, coleslaw and hushpuppies. The only thing that was good was the fried shrimp. They were seasoned to perfection. Even though all of the food was cooked to order it just didn't taste fresh. Seemed as if it was refried...idk...maybe I should've went on a different day. Not saying that I will go back but if I ever do it'll only be for the shrimp. read more

Since it's lint where I come from NOLA, I was craving fish and wanted the best place in Atlanta to get some deep fried Catfish and I found on google Rahims On Wheels. It's funny because i've passed this place many times going to Publix. Anyway, it's not even 3 minutes from my house off Campbellton Rd, so I called and drove over. I ordered the Fried Catfish Plate and a side of Fried Shrimp (12 ct.). While waiting, I just took a look at the Wall of Fame and to my surprise there were lots of famous R&B celebs on them along with the owners. While waiting for my order, I spoke with one of the twins and my cashier Zuhairah Rahim, who was very polite and assured me my order was on the way. I told her "No Worries"! When the order was ready, she showed me the food before she closed the containers, and I have to say, it looks just like how I deep fry my seafood, given I'm from New Orleans. We spoke about how long they have been there, and I was amazed on the longevity of the restaurant. Well, to my amazement, the food was "Right On"!!! It was absolutely DELICIOUS, CRISPY, FRESH AND HOT!!! I have just found myself a seafood spot to match my cooking trends, given I am a Culinary/Pastry Chef in the business for over 35 years, I have to say, "Well Done, Rahims On Wheels"!!! The Catfish was crispy and tender inside and the butterfly shrimp was delightfully fried nice as well. ATL, Ya'll betta go get you some, before I get it All!!! Ms. Denise Down the Street read more

A friend of mine had a Groupon for here and so I found myself here. I wanted shrimp, but you can't have shrimp and use the Groupon (womp, womp). Anyway, I ended up trying the whiting plate. It came with 4, good sized pieces of fish, which were well seasoned. The fries were those of the frozen, crinkled variety. They charged me 55 cents because I wanted a cocktail sauce. The lady explained that cocktail sauce is only served with the shrimp (which I couldn't get with the Groupon), and so it would be 55 cents if I wanted it with the fish. I can't stand to be charged for any sauces. This is a hole-in-the-wall restaurant. It gets three stars in the category entitled Hole-in-Zee-Wahl. Again, the fish was seasoned well and hot. This restaurant had a certain glory back in the day. Apparently, it was the first black seafood restaurant in Atlanta (I think that's what it boosted). I've heard mention of this establishment over the years as a part of Atlanta's history. The wall is full of photos of various celebrities who have dined there. Lots of rappers, but most notably, Muhammad Ali. I can now say that I've tried the legendary Rahim's Seafood. read more

I try to support black owned businesses as much as possible but I will never come here again. I paid .59 for an extra sauce and when I checked my food the sauce was not in the bag. I was given skimpy fries after paying $10 for food. I let the lady know and she is arguing with me about a dam sauce. I will never return to this ghetto establishment. One lady said I ate the fries and I am extremely insulted. I make good money and don't need to steal no dam Fries and sauce. read more

Came here for lunch but I tried to call in first. The old fat lady that takes the order and answer the phone is rude as hell and SUPER UNPROFESSIONAL. I'm all for supporting my black people and all but I will not at any point put up with her rudeness. So because they wanted my credit card to take a order I chose to come in and order. The rudeness is even worst in person as she sat there and ate and smack on her food and never offered one ounce of welcomeness. If you want this business to survive please send her fat ass home and Never ever let her back in this business again. I wish I would've read the reviews before I came because they wouldn't have got that money from me. Let's just say I'll never go again and I'll advise anyone with in ear shot to run far away read more

Just moved into this area and wanted some seafood. The first time we went they were closed at 7:30 and were supposed to close at 9. Next time I called to see what time they closed and I was told 7:15. Called several times starting at 6:30 and no answer. Went in and placed order and waited about 15 minutes. That was fine because I knew my food would be fresh! Fish was good but only received 5 pieces and paid for 6! 6 piece snack comes with 2 hush puppies. Really?!?! Ordered large cole slaw for $4.49 and it was 6 ounces! The cole slaw was frozen! WTF! It's hard to support businesses when they don't do right by the customers. read more

The food was excellent the first time I went for lunch, however I came back on a Friday evening and they put a pound of salt in the food. I purchased a shrimp dinner and a fish and shrimp combo dinner. I wanted to give the a 5 star because the place is clean and the customer service is great. Maybe someone must help the young crew on Friday. read more

This is one of those places I want to big up. And I do. The good. The catfish sammich tasteful. Sh*t is banging! I'm a seafood freak. You absolutely, can't can't can't can't can't be out of most seafood items as a seafood establishment. That is unacceptable by most seafood establishments. They fries are cool though #Random. Place is not easiest to spot. Tucked away in a gas station parking a lot across the street from Scotch. It is something to try if you are in the area but I wouldn't come from Decatur or Suwanee for it. Grade: C read more

The customer service was spectacular & The restaurant was clean. I told the cook(I didn't catch her name) that it was my first time patronizing the restaurant. She was very pleasant and so patient with me. However If you are wanting good seafood.. DO NOT EAT AT THIS RESTAURANT. First off, it was overpriced (17.32) for what was supposed to be a 2pc catfish dinner. I was under the assumption that it was a whole catfish, instead it was catfish strips. The fish was bland and had absolutely no seasoning except high blood pressure Salt. It tasted as tho' the fish was fried in old grease. The fries were so soggy, tasteless, and also tasted like it was cooked in the same old grease as the fish. I was told that the Cole slaw was and I quite "slamming" "The absolute best" GROSS!! It was utterly disgusting and looked brown & old as if it was sitting out for a long. The only thing that was good were the hush puppies, I'm not sure,but it probably was store bought. Sad, but true ‍! For that over prices meal, that should've come with a drink or SweetTea, I give 2 stars and that's because of the customer service, and the cleanliness of the restaurant.& 2 thumbs down for the food. (Side note) I will give credit where credit is due, however it's a definite no for me ‍ (Spell & grammar check) read more

I honestly have to say I've always loved this place..Did experience a lil small matter that was incorrect but The owner went above and beyond to correct the issues and proceeded with professional and dynamic customer service...I can definitely see why this establishment has been in business for year's..Thanks To you and your staff read more

Rahim's Seafood - Southern Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I had been driving by this place on my way home for at least three years, and always thought about trying it, but it's not the best location in the world. While on Groupon, I saw a coupon and decided to give it a try. I must admit that I was very impressed! I had the catfish dinner and chicken wings. The fish was very tender and flaky, and they actually cooked my wings extra crispy like I always prefer. I took a peek back into the kitchen, and it was rather clean. The restaurant wall is filled with photos of celebrities who have visited, which was very impressive. Not a place that I would consider taking a date out to fine dine, but definitely a great deal if you like good hot food with good portions. read more
