I have heard wonderful things about this place and decided to check them out…read more This place has a private parking lot with a good amount of parking. It is in a strip mall so spaces can be limited at times. The inside of this place is designed beautifully. It makes you believe that you are at a beach bar. The outside patio is pretty nice as well. I sat at the bar. I ordered the Fried Lobster tacos (2) and lobster bisque. The lobster bisque was tasty but not that special. As a $2 upcharge I feel that it was well worth the price. The lobster tacos are deep fried lobster pieces in tacos with guac and corn. This wasn't my favorite combination but it was filling and satisfied my lobster craving.

My mother wanted seafood for her birthday, and after hearing so many great things about this…read morerestaurant, I knew this was the perfect opportunity to finally give it a try. Making reservations was incredibly easy through OpenTable, and I was pleasantly surprised by the convenient valet service for only $3. It was an effortless start to what turned out to be an exceptional dining experience. Upon entering, we were warmly greeted by the host and promptly escorted to our table without any wait. Our waiter, Kevin, was phenomenal. He did an excellent job explaining the menu, offering thoughtful recommendations, and making sure everyone's needs were attended to throughout the afternoon. The service was attentive without being overbearing--truly excellent and unforgettable hospitality. We started with the Chargrilled Oysters, Oysters Rockefeller, and Calamari. Everything was satisfying, but the calamari was the standout for me. It had the perfect crunch and was quite literally fried to perfection. I would absolutely order it again. These appetizers are true staples and a great way to start the meal. We also enjoyed several rounds of cocktails. The bartender was able to execute a few off-menu, custom cocktails perfectly, and there were absolutely no complaints from our table. Everything was well-balanced and thoughtfully prepared. For my entrée, I ordered the Blackened Branzino with lemon-herb beurre blanc, paired with whipped potatoes and Vichy carrots. By far, this is one of the best seafood entrées I've had in Atlanta. I've had branzino at plenty of other restaurants, but this one? It clears the competition and has officially claimed the #1 spot on my list. The fish was beautifully prepared, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the sauce and sides. The rest of our party had equally impressive meals. I had the opportunity to sample the 12 oz. Prime NY Strip, Blackened Salmon, Lobster Mac & Cheese, Brussels Sprouts, Green Beans, and Clam Chowder, and everything was amazing. There wasn't a single dish that disappointed. Overall, this was truly an exceptional dining experience from start to finish. Great food, phenomenal hospitality, attentive service, and an atmosphere that made celebrating my mother's birthday feel special. I'm already looking forward to returning--and next time, I definitely want to check out the patio! A true standout for seafood in Atlanta. Highly recommend.

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.

My bride really liked her glass of Sauv Blanc. The glass is a nice size and the pour was really generous. We enjoyed the Fried Calamari app. My bride ordered Fish & Chips and I ordered the Lobster Roll. All the food was excellent. Great fries, really great Cole Slaw. Drinks and food arrived promptly and everything was at the proper temperature. Every staff person we met was cheerful and helpful with Deenie our server best in class. This was my second-ever Lobster Roll and it was the second-best after a Cousins Food Truck. The B's portion seem significantly smaller and, at $35, more expensive. In general, Big B's pricing is what lost them a star in my review. We will definitely return when we earn another $120...

I asked why people were not in business casual? Was told that they were just trying to get people in the doors. I told them they should remove it from their website then. Be aware that you do not need to wear business class clothes. Now onto the service. It was excellent! Interior was pleasant. Wine was very good. I had the sweet and spicy calamari and husband had the mussels, excellent tasting! Then came the entrees. Rainbow trout with spinach and whipped potatoes...VERY BLAND! Absolutely no flavor even with the lemon sauce and capers. Spinach no flavor, potatoes a little bit of flavor. I ate it because it cost $39. My husband had a lobster roll and fries. I laughed because I thought they brought him a childs plate. It took him three bites and he was done. He said the only thing he could taste was the celery. It was so small and cost $36. Then came dessert time...it was very good. I would give them 5 stars for the service, appetize, wine and dessert. I would give the 0 stars for the entree. I guess I could of complained but really what could they do to fix it when the have specs they followed from the company for cooking. I just wanted you to know that yes it was $$$$ don't get the lobster roll and be aware that the food is BLAND! I would also give the menu a 5 stars. Lots of choices!

We order out Entrée as he put down the plate it cracked in half the whole time he was busy flirting with some chicks on the other table hardly came out way well cool np he took the plate went in and was back in 2mins like there was no chances of chipped pieces of the plate going in the food cause it was the same food on the other plate ok cool we packed it up dumped it on the way home. When the bill came in there was no discount i dont expect you to take the whole thing off but come one after all that even a 10% discount would keep me satisfied. Thats just sad i like the food here next time ill just sit at the other side with better servers.

I was staying at a hotel in Buckhead and noticed they were right next door, so I decided to stop in for happy hour. The service was excellent, and everyone was so friendly and welcoming. Their happy hour is one of the best in the city, especially if you're an oyster lover! Monday through Friday from 3-5 p.m., they offer $1 raw oysters, $2 Oysters Rockefeller, and $1 peel-and-eat shrimp, which is such a good deal. While their regular menu is really good as well, this visit was all about happy hour, and it definitely did not disappoint. I'll absolutely be back for the oysters!

It is exciting to find a restaurant serving great Cajun food (probably my favorite cuisine)…read more They have all the dishes you'd expect from a serious Cajun restaurant. Multiple stuffed and topped redfish options, lots of crawfish, and plenty of dishes that require a roux (all things that lesser restaurants are clearly afraid, or unable, to offer on their menus). For me, most importantly, they have crawfish etouffee. Any other dinner items will have to wait till a future visit. It was terrific, made from a hearty roux, with lots of crawfish flavor. It was a more tomato-y variety of etouffee than I make for myself, but it was excellent in a different way (the tomato presence was good -- neither sour nor bland). Service is great, attentive but not obtrusive. Plus, they have live jazz music -- even though I was there too early for the live music, it's important to support restaurants that make the effort to have real musicians. Nearly everywhere in Atlanta has very kind people and very good food, but I will still try to stop by the Louisiana Bistreaux next time I'm visiting the friendly sweltering inferno that is Atlanta.

I absolutely love this restaurant. They are always so welcoming and the atmosphere is really nice…read more It's great for business meetings or a romantic dinner. 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. All of these dishes were expertly prepare prepared... but that black and red fish was a thing of beauty oh my gosh! Ridiculously delicious. 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.

We came here on a Sunday afternoon and it was pretty empty. It's located in Buckhead between some…read moreother restaurants and residences. Parking was valet for about $5. We were sat immediately of course and opted for outside. The decor inside is beautiful with a indoor/outdoor bar. We started with drinks, a piña colada and's the Beeyonsea. Both very refreshing. For starters we ordered a dozen oysters, half raw and half Rockefeller. These were much more on the pricier side ($48 in total) compared to what I pay for oysters so while they were ok I wouldn't get them here again. My friend ordered the lobster bisque which was very rich, flavorful and creamy. A must try! It came with a single skinny bred stick. 3 sticks I feel would've been better. On the menu, you can choose one of several different fish and also select the kind of sauce you would like with your fish. I ordered the black cod and chose the coconut green curry sauce. It came with sticky rice and it was amazing! The fish was cooked perfectly with the skin slightly charred and crispy. My friend ordered the jumbo shrimp fried rice. Very delicious! Exactly what you would expect traditional fried rice to taste like. This is a great dinner/date night spot if you enjoy upscale Thai cuisine. The price is on the higher side as we split the bill and each paid about $115 each.

I started with a frozen piña colada, which was delicious--light, refreshing, and with just the right amount of alcohol. For an appetizer, I ordered the dumplings. They were pretty good, but nothing particularly memorable. I couldn't decide on an entrée right away, and my friend was ready to order, so I opted for a salad to snack on while she enjoyed her meal. Unfortunately, my salad was just okay. Usually, a good ginger dressing can really elevate a salad, but this one was very underwhelming. My friend's shrimp Pad Thai arrived, and she immediately did not like it. She said it was much sweeter than she expected, so I offered to take it so she could order something else. After trying it myself, I completely agreed--it was way too sweet. It also had radish cooked into the dish, which seemed to add even more sweetness. I asked for a spice rack to add some heat and hopefully balance out the flavors, but unfortunately, it didn't help much. I was highly disappointed with the dish. The shrimp itself was cooked well, which was honestly the only positive thing I could say about it. Instead of risking another entrée with the same result, my friend ordered the calamari, and thankfully, it was delicious! Overall, I probably wouldn't return for a full meal. If I did come back, it would likely be for drinks, appetizers, or happy hour. The atmosphere is beautiful and has great date-night potential, but the food was unfortunately too hit-or-miss for me.

Service was prompt and on point. They were attentive to food allergy requests. I opted for a 3 course tasting option they had while wife ordered an app and a steak for dinner. Both the tuna and the octopus apps were great. Wife's steak was prepared well and my beef Wellington was incredible. Not often you find it on a menu and the prep here was outstanding. Sides were good and the sauce was kinda whatever and totally unnecessary. Somehow left room for the dessert (bread pudding with ice cream) and had no regrets. They were super accommodating separating the ice cream out into a separate bowl so my wife could have some. We ended up valeting just bc we didn't want to figure out which deck had the validated parking. Excellent, memorable dinner. We'd gladly come back.

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.
