Glenda B.

A friend said, "Let's go to lunch and get out of the house." Sure, why not. We were originally on our way to Hapeville, but she saw this spot on the way and changed her mind. I have lived here 19 years, and I have never been to Spondivits. The long line of people standing outside always made me go elsewhere. There was no line today. Perfect. We were seated in a booth that had open windows to the outside. The place is very rustic, like a hole in the wall. The sever brought us the menus and took our drink orders. They make some really good brewed iced tea. It was sweet and not watered down. We ordered an appetizer of Fried Calamari and raw Oysters. My friend enjoyed her oysters. The Calamari was deep fried, but it had a light batter. In my opinion, it needed a different batter and some seasoning. Next, we had seafood platters and some crab cakes. The platter was in a small plastic tray. It looked like it wasn't a lot of food, but there was quite a bit there. It consisted of shrimp, oysters, and clams, all fried with French fries. Again, the food lacked seasoning, but it was edible. The crab cakes were super tasty and filled with butter. I was not impressed by the food. I really wanted to like it but in my opinion the prices do not compare to the quality of the dishes. The food is expensive. We spent $170 and that did not include alcohol or dessert. Please think about using some seasoning other than salt. Also, the parking is free valet only and located behind the restaurant at the bottom of the hill.

We really enjoyed the atmosphere and was able to watch the soccer game while eating. Great food and good service

Parking: Valet only (you keep your keys) Price: 8:50-59.95 in the menu I was given on a Monday. Gratuity: Added to the bil 18 or 20%(I cant remember) and max 3 check splits at the table. The Bar at Spondivits is nice to sit at, its lively, you watch the game but the bar stools are too low. They really need to fix that. The drinks are stronger & good. I had the Chowder Kennebunkport Bowl which is topped with melted cheese & bacon it also comes with Garlic bread. Also, on this day it was $21 95. It was extremely salty and I was unable enjoy or finish eating the soup. I explained this to the waitress and she only replied, ' Ill let them know'. Nothing else was said, nor did I ask for a Manager as I would normally do, I just couldnt be bothered on a Monday. My friend had ordered the 1/2 dozen of Andy's Special Recipe Oysters, which she loved she said it was the closest thing to char-grilled Oysters & the side of sauce which ended up being Horseradished based she loved it as well, it had a little kick. The bucket of crab legs she ordered was 1lb you have to pay for a side of old bay and they provide a garlic butter. Also, my friend wanted to add another 1/ dozen Andy's Special Oysters to make it a a dozen and to also pay the price for a full and the told her that was not an option & if she wanted 6 more she would need to pay the 1/2 dozen price. It sounded ridiculous but they made a thing about corporate doesnt like to see charges being voided etc. The server and the host were all very nice and they kept checking on us. We sat by the back door and a fan was there blowing, which made it a little cool so we asked for it to be turned off. The gentleman stepped on the seat that I was sitting on to turn the fan off and proceed to leave without cleaning the seat. I asked for him to clean the seat & he responded 'oh you want Princess treatment', my friend & I had to laugh. Its the ignorance to think thats Princess treatment when he just stepped his dirty shoes on the chair & didn't think it needed to be cleaned off for me to continue sitting in the seat. ‍ I dont frequent Spondivits, I can tell you one thing it will remain that way. I see different menus online with varying price ranges. I wonder if they have menus for certain days or they give ppl different menus based on if they think they have money to spend. I will still continue not to frequent Spondivits as it is a staple in the Hapeville area but the prices are extremely high. The crab bucket was delicious, the oysters were as well, the Chowder soup was salty AF and some of the rules of not accommodating customers are ridiculous. The place could use a little updating, the bathroom was clean and they are unisex, the drinks at the bar are strong. I definitely would recommend Spondivits but be prepared to spend some money. My review is a hard 3

Clam chowder
William S.

If you want great food and an even better vibe, check this place out. Cold beer, great oysters and a special clam chowder that will knock your socks off

Crab bucket
William G.

This place had a really cool vibe and the valets were chill too. My crab legs were really good. Nice size and a good amount of meat. The oysters were a nice size but were a bit on the warm side. I had to stop eating them of fear of getting sick. This could just be preference but I prefer my oysters to be chilled more. Overall, great place and would definitely go back.

Halibut

Great food , Great service from both hostesses, Bartender Andre and waitress Cindy had an upbeat service with a smile. Management know what they are doing providing great atmosphere with great variety of music. Very cozy place and thank you for making our Valentines layover memorable.

The Ultimate Fried Combo ( fried shrimp, oysters, and clams w/ fries)
Lexi J.

Soooo good!!! Someone recommended this place for dinner while we were visiting from VA. The seafood was served fresh and hot! The shrimp were so plump and juicy, the oysters were the perfect size and cooked perfectly, the clams were so good! Not too chewy like some places. Our waitress was very nice and patient. We had a hard time selecting from the extensive menu. It was a cool setting! We set on the "patio" which was inside but had open windows which was perfect! I can't wait to visit when I'm in town again.

Proof of incident
Shaun J.

I'm giving this establishment a one star due to the fact that I was assaulted by the restaurant manager. He was not provoked by anyone but, needs to get rid of. He was irrational and incompetent. If this is the type of management this place has to offer, I'm not interested. Not only that they towed my vehicle. Our server Sydney was awesome and she is better than place. I wish her the best. I even have proof of the incident.

$25 margarita
Maii L.

Came to this restaurant cause our hotel was next to it. It was a cool little seafood and bar restaurant. We got seating quick and our waitress was nice. I order a margaritas, Cajun shrimp and rice. It was good but expensive and did not know my margaritas would come out to 25 for one drink. Overall, expect to pay high when your here.

Fried lobster sandwich with fries. Yummy!
Denise R.

I had the fried lobster blt. It was very good. The service was great. The ambiance was cozy.

Fries
Stephen G.

Waitress was nice and friendly but didn't know what type of breading was on the fried lobster tails. Sat at booths on the outside. No glass windows but not cold. I've been here many times. Clam chowder tonight was salty AF. Gross. Shrimp was good as always. Fried lobster had lots of breading to pull off. Fries salted and cooked. Make the trek here every year or so when we have to be near the airport. Food is never bad except for tonight's chowder. It ain't cheap. I'll be back some time.

Right Attitude !!!
Steve N.

Visiting from out of town and the minute I walked into this place I knew I had hit gold. It was perfect! Really comfortable, super chill and definitely not stuffy. I sat at the bar where Packer fan Kent took great care of me. He was friendly, made great conversation, never let my beer go dry and guided me through the menu perfectly. My French Dip sandwich was huge and absolutely delicious. I loved it here and if I ever get back to the Atlanta area I will not miss stopping by for another great meal. Thanks Kent!

Crab cakes

The food was excellent. The service was wonderful. I sat at the bar and Angel was my server. She was wonderful. The ambiance was classics seafood house atmosphere. My overall experience was great.

Food is great, parking sucks. Valet only, even at lunch and no other options. Unless they can correct this, I don't see them surviving.

Very satisfying food they are reasonable and always fresh. Definitely a go to once on old National.read more

I come to this location 4-5 times a week and last night was enough for me to never return again…read more The food is actually good, which makes this situation even more disappointing. While waiting for my food, the older man handling drinks and peppers was throwing my peppers around carelessly like they were toys. I calmly said, "Please don't play with my food, I have to eat that." His response was immediately aggressive and completely unprofessional. He responded by saying, "Nobody is playing with your motherfucking food," then proceeded to tell me to "get the fuck out of the store." In front of customers, he also referred to me as "the bitch" and continued cursing loudly while staff stood around doing nothing. I asked for the manager and was falsely told the manager had "just left," even though I had literally just spoken to him moments earlier while ordering. Then security came and stood next to me as if I had done something wrong, despite me remaining calm the entire time. This employee has had a horrible attitude every single time I've come in, but this crossed the line completely. No customer should ever be cursed out, disrespected, or made to feel unsafe simply for asking someone not to mishandle food they paid for. The level of disrespect and hostility was completely unacceptable. Businesses that tolerate employees verbally abusing paying customers will continue to lose loyal customers. I will never return.
