I was in Atlanta GA for a basketball tournament. We decided to out alone and enjoy a seafood dinner. I had to share how great the food was and the waiter explanation of the dishes made us to have a whole new experience. My husband had the Grouper Fish with lobster tail cook to perfection. I had the crab cakes. The portions are big and honestly two people can eat from one dish. We also paid for a basket of bread that came out warm with butter. The mac and cheese was great and went well with our dishes. We also had wine to go with our dinner.It was a great experience and we were lucky to get into this restaurant.

The food was absolutely indescribable. Without a doubt, the best meal my husband and I have had in ours lives. The service by the staff was very friendly and professional, and as both my husband and I have worked in the restaurant industry for most of our lives we truly appreciate the friendliness and attentiveness the staff had this evening. I’m so upset that I forgot their review card, because I really want the wait staff to get the recognition they deserve. Mario, Kevin, and one other who’s name I can not recall, were more than a guest could ask for. You’ve got yourself an amazing crew. From the chefs, hostesses and waiters, you all helped my husband give me a most memorable birthday.

Upon arriving I was greeted by the hostess. Very sweet young lady wish I could remember her name. But we was seated and our waiter was very attentive and friendly . Me and my husband ordered for appetizers the loaded potato chips and the calamari. My husband ordered Shrimp and Grits which he said was so flavorful and delicious. I ordered the Shrimp Scampi omg so good we had so much food for like almost two days . Definitely recommend this place for dinner or lunch . The atmosphere was nice too.

This place was a bit disappointing to me. It started at the hostess stand when 2 of us arrived 10 minutes earlier than the other 2 people in our party. The hostess would not seat us and as I looked around, the place was nearly a ghost town. I asked if they were too busy to seat us and we were told that it was their policy to only seat when the entire party was there. I get that, but I felt it was not necessary in that situation. We were told that we could wait in the lobby, but apparently those seats were being cleaned and were wet, so we had to sit at the bar until the other 2 people in the party arrived. Needless to say, I was quite annoyed by that point. The food didn't help either. Everything tasted so bland and I even had to try adding salt and pepper to my mashed potatoes. The plating was weird and the sentiments were the same with the other people in my group. It wasn't horrible, but it wasn't great either. For the price, I was definitely expecting more. The cheesecake was drenched in blueberries to the point that it was more like blueberry compote with a hint of cheesecake. Outside of the mediocre experience, the shining stars at this place are the servers. It seemed weird that we would have 3 servers for a table of 4, but the attention was nice and they were always on top of everything. The warm towels at the end of the meal was a nice touch and it was cool that we could pay right from the table. Shoutout to Joy, Jazz, and Alex for a great job and for making me give more stars on this review than I would have otherwise.

lawrence bowman | Dec 10, 2018
Jeffrey Craig | Dec 11, 2018

Their menu varies from brunch to lunch to dinner and is quite good. That said this is not a budget friendly place. It is pricey, but on my estimation well worth it.
