“I have always wanted to visit the big fish downtown and Atlanta Fish Market is everything. The Apple Kale salad was delicious and such a huge portion I could not finish. My husband had the fried platter with the jumbo lump crab cake and it was as delicious as described. The atmosphere was everything calm and quiet enough to talk. Our server (i wish i felt like sharing his name) was good but as soon as we paid we were forgot about a bit. We were waiting for a box to.go for a minute. It was kinda sad. My husband was not happy and I truly had to hear about it which I hated. We would come back. On the strength of the food.”
“We had an amazing Mother’s Day dinner at Atlanta Fish Market. Everything was absolutely delicious from start to finish. We ordered the crab bisque, shrimp tempura, twin lobster tails, and calamari… every dish was flavorful, fresh, and cooked perfectly. The lychee drops were EVERYTHING and definitely one of my favorite drinks of the night! I even tried my cousin’s trout and it was so good. The service was amazing and the atmosphere made the night feel extra special for celebrating with family. Such a great experience overall. Happy Mother’s Day to our family ….definitely a dinner to remember!”
“Absolutely top notch seafood and service! When they say they have the largest selection of fresh fish, they are definitely telling the truth. The variety of options is a bit overwhelming at first. My suggestion, order several items, lol. The oysters were awesome as well! They have a good shucker on staff! It’s a valet parking lot and those guys running it could use a lesson in courtesy, but they were pretty swamped. The restaurant is very busy so take a good measure of patience when you go. Frankly, I can’t wait to visit again. 👍”
“We came here for our anniversary dinner and had a great experience. The food was excellent across the board, and the octopus was a standout. Definitely one of our favorites from the night. Bobby, the GM, was awesome and made the experience even better. You can tell the team really cares about what they’re doing. We’ve been to a few Buckhead Life restaurants before, but this was our first time trying this concept and it did not disappoint. Looking forward to coming back.”
“Went for son's birthday on Tuesday night... not busy at all so good day to go. They only have a valet parking but it's only $3- very reasonable. I had the swordfish steak and they cooked it perfectly! Sushi we ordered was excellent- presentation, tastes, freshness. Surprisingly stake at a seafood restaurant was Really good. It was also cooked perfect medium! Some stake restaurant can't get right. Downside- gumbo was very salty. Second, they served beer in a bottle instead of a chilled glass.”
