In Short – This glitzy Vegas transplant is lodged appropriately in the glassy Terminus building and it's what you'd expect from a Vegas born chain--full of flash and decadence. A dramatic waterfall-encased stairwell drops diners into an open area reminiscent of a modern ocean liner. The service plays up the over-the-top theme, unnecessarily assigning two servers per table. Forget the confusing "Global Water Cuisine" slogan--this is damn good seafood, no matter how fancy a title. Smoked salmon pate with pencil-thin bread sticks comes immediately as compliments of the chef. Additionally,…
OK...

Worst Dining Experience In Atlanta
by jasonlgreene
I stopped by this past Saturday, without a reservation, and was immediately seated in the window. The place was half empty. Should have known something was wrong. Waiter dropped off menu, took Martini order, and app. order. Well, my app. arrived before my drink. Tried to find my waiter, to no avail. The 14.00 app. was four medium sized, very overcooked prawns, with just enough Aquaknox sauce to cover one shrimp. It tasted like canned tomato sauce. Finally the 49.00 stuffed lobster arrived, looked great. One bite, and the lobster meat fell off the fork. It was either undercooked, previously frozen, or possibly worse. Couldn't find waiter again. But I did catch the eye of a floor manager, but he was only doing table visits with parties of two or more. Finally got my 116.00 bill for one, and the waiter just put it on the table, without even a thank you. No thanks. My fine seafood dining will stay with Oceanaire and Atlanta Fish Company. Now I see why they are half full on a saturday night. I invite the manager, owner, etc. to contact me about this horrible experience. You have been warned.
- Pros: Stunning Restaurant!
- Cons: Terrible Food, Slow Service!
Good seafood place in heart of buckhead

Had dinner her a few months ago, and it was very good. Ordered the surf & turf which was nice because you could choose the type of turf you wanted. I chose the Filet, and the other person chose the cowboy ribeye. Both very very good.
The atmosphere was cool as its next door to bricktops in the Terminas Building so you definitely are bound to run into some wealthy and or famous folks when dining in this area. The nice thing about this restaurant was that even though it was very trendy and upscale, it was not overwhelming. It was peaceful to eat here and a good experience.
Our service was semi-sub-par as it was getting pretty crowded when we ordered. Our drink orders took upwards of 10 minutes to obtain and one time the server forgot to bring it out. The GM/Partner (i think?) came around to our table multiple times to make sure everything was ok and comp'd some drinks due to the time it took. Definitely made up for the time it took to get them.
Overall, good experience, not too expensive, but definitely not cheap!
- Pros: Good seafood, trendy
- Cons: Can get busy, Service can lack with this type of volume
