This Buckhead Life stallworth has set the tone for great seafood in the city for years; their amazing selection always blowes me away. They also have a great bar where you can have some creative apps with libations

The fish market is known for their seafood but their basil potato cake is heavenly. Awesome sushi options too.

Tips for Atlanta Fish Market
December 10, 2010
Great Food; Execellent Service; Lackluster Ambiance.
The food at AFM is delicious. I had a chilean sea bass and salmon combo and my wife had the surf and turf special.
The service was excellent as well. When I made the reservation I told them it was my wife's birthday, and several times throughout the evening the staff would wish her a happy birthday. They even brought out a free dessert for her.
Our only issue was the ambiance. If you are looking for a romantic dinner, this is not the place. The atmosphere was akin to a food court environment, and the decor was abysmal and out-dated.
So as long as you don't really care about a romantic environment, we recommend Atlanta Fish Market.

Everything was wonderful!.
Delicious food, from the Fish Market Hot Tower appetizer to the Blackened Atlantic Salmon (awesome!), AFM "Chopped Salad", Black Grouper, wine, and dessert... combined with spectacular service and excellent atmosphere!
Everything together created a perfect background for an enjoyable time for our whole group!

Full and Satisfied. love love love this place! I have been about 5 times and always leave filled to capacity. The yummi yummi sushi rolls are the BEST! please try them on your visit. The entrees have never disappoointed and the servers are always attentive. If u make a reservation before 9 there is no wait even on a saturday. The tables in the back are extremely small though; the server had to shift things around just to make room. But other than that I love the place! Be careful; it can get pricey. We always end up paying at least $80 for two people not including tip.

get the boca.
Go to the bar, ask Joe for the BOCA, start your night off with a boost!
moved onto oysters, then sushi...hubby got the stuffed lobster. all made to perfection...fresh, and fun!
waiter..was odd, but very attentive.
we ended the night with an oreo cheesecake- yummy, and the apple crumb cake with ice cream...friend thought top should have been crunchier...however, that didnt keep us from finishing it off!

Quite the Birthday dinner. I celebrated my birthday yesterday with my girlfriend and I have to say that the food surpassed my expectations. After rave reviews from parents and friends, I finally decided to check it out. Highly recommended was the calamari. The best I have ever had. Not too oily or fishy. Quickly flash fried and served with a great sauce. I had sushi , fried lobster tails and the wedge salad with bacon and blue cheese. Everything was super fresh and cooked perfectly. A nice ambiance throughout the restaurant. I will be visiting again shortly.

Best Seafood in Atlanta. I really love this place. I've been there about 4x's and each time I go we leave full and satisfied. Everything was great from the appetizers all the way to deserts. They make great alcolohic drinks too. I ordered the King crab legs that came with asparagus and mashed potatos. Excellent choice if you are a crab llover and plenty of food to take home. My husband ordered the stuffed lobster. YUMMY! OMG you will be in heaven when you taste either entree. I recommend this place to anyone new in town or just looking for good seafood. The servers are very knowledgable as well. I'm going this Saturday for Valentines and I just can't stop thinking about it. My mouth is watering now......

A Must for Atlanta Seafood!.
When I want seafood in Atlanta, I always think of the Atlanta Fish Market. With fresh catch flown in daily, it is by far the best option in the city. They have a large menu selection for both lunch and dinner, with personal favorites such as the Peruvian Sea Bass, Grouper Francese, Crab Cakes (hands down the best I have ever had), and the legendary Fried Lobster Tail. Also, don't miss out on the Blue Cheese Caesar Salad, Fish Market Iced Tower, or the fabulous sushi menu!
As a native Atlantan and frequent diner of AFM, I have never once had anything but exceptional service. The wait staff is friendly and personable and very attentive. The atmosphere is perfect, fun and airy but also quiet enough to enjoy your conversation.

Disappointment. The decor was out of date. As soon as you walk in you can see the floor tiles are all broken off. Tables are put together so it looks like a cafeteria, not a romantic restaurant. We ordered the tuna carpaccio for an appetizer and all you could taste was the oil and onions drizzled on top. It was too oily for my liking. My main course of halibut tasted okay, but the green beans tasted like they were from a can (they were overly cooked) and the potatoes had a gamey taste. I'm not sure if they put chicken stock in them. The only redeeming quality was the good service, but it wasn't enough to bring us back.
