ATLANTA FISH MARKET REVIEWS

Overall, an excellent dining experience. Started with the oysters rockerfeller. While I appreciated the oysters weren't drowning in sauce, I found the amount of spinach excessive. The fried lobster tail and crab cake was excellent. The crab cake was mostly crab meat and not filler (close to a Maryland crab cake). The chocolate pie with oreo crust was rich and decadent. I will definitely return.

This is a really great place for a birthday or special event and the prices were pretty reasonable given the high quality of food served. Service was top notch and the atmosphere was very nice (see pics below) Atlanta Fish Market is owned by Buckhead Life Restaurant Group and like all of their restaurants offers an excellent dining experience.

Went here recently to celebrate my birthday. The string lights on the palm trees are absolutely beautiful. The food was delicious and our waitress Katelyn gave us excellent service. She went above and beyond and helped make the night one to remember.

SIX FEET UNDER PUB & FISH HOUSE GRANT PARK REVIEWS

I would like to say that everything I got was absolutely delicious! The coleslaw was absolutely killer and lives up to its name the catfish very much fresh and seasoned perfectly Bartender Holly was amazing as well and very attentive. I definitely recommend this place. The drinks were flowing just as well as the food atmosphere great and even the manager was very hospitable. Please go and try them out for yourself.

Loved the catfish bites and the okra & the dipping sauces were delicious. I thought the shrimp and grits were good, but all the green veggies mixed in sort of took away from the flavor… but 2 of my 3 my friends loved it. The service and atmosphere was fantastic! I’ll be back.

The waitress was friendly. The food was hot and delicious. Great bar atmosphere.

THE OPTIMIST REVIEWS

I was in town for a music festival and wanted to meet with my friend to celebrate our birthdays. She had this restaurant on her must try list and I happily obliged. Very intimate decor and very popular place, we were seated quickly and the staff was extremely helpful in with guiding recommendations. The biscuits that are given are complementary and some of the best I've had. The quality of the oysters was amazing, the octopus was cooked beautifully, and the scallops where divine although the portion was a bit small. The staff was kind enough to provide us with customized menus which displayed our respective birthdays and I greatly appreciate the touch as the days leading up we're fairly difficult. Nothing negative to say about this experience.

Took my seafood loving mom here for her birthday. The food was AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS! Our server was super sweet and attentive. She had great food recommendations and surprised my mom with the house rose’ sorbet with a candle at the end of the meal. I had the scallops with our server’s recommendation and was so happy I did! The sauce! Even the accompanying garnishes and asparagus were yummy.

The food was amazing. The bread was unexpectedly delicious and buttery and perfect. The hot sauce they gave with the oyster was a quick hot, but the flavor was amazing. Everything was amazing. My only negative, if there could be one, is the music was loud. Like it was hard to hear the waitress, and my date, kind of loud.
