Still dreaming...

by beauboo at Citysearch

I am still recalling the meal my husband and his recently affianced daughter and future son-in-law enjoyed in October 2001. Everything was excellent -- after eating at the Atlanta Fish Market --all other seafood houses pale...

• Pros: Crowded, Valet Parking, Excellent Wait Staff
• Cons: Crowded

Highly Recommend AFM!

by elliodc at Citysearch

Atlanta Fish Market is the best restaurant in Atlanta!

Their gumbo tastes more authentic than what you'll find in New Orleans! The blackened mahi is my favorite. I highly recommend you save room for dessert! Chocolate Explosion is delicious! There is no better dessert on the planet!

• Pros: Large portions, flavorful tasty foods, high-class
• Cons: moderately expensive, valet parking only, gets crowded quickly

One of my personal favorites

by junco513 at Citysearch

AFM is one of my favorite places to go in Buckhead. Their fish is fresh and prepared deliciously. Other seafood selections are also delightful. The oyster samplers and oyster casinos are also wonderful. The big open restaurant provides a nice atmosphere. I always like to go here for special occasions or just a nice night out.

Seafood lover's delight!

by patti319 at Citysearch

A seafood lover's delight! Good food, reasonably priced. A bit crowded and a bit loud, but still very good! Their bar is a nice alternative place to eat if smoking and drinking is also on your agenda.

• Pros: great seafood, parking for patrons, reasonable prices

Best-quality seafood in town

by lgaddy at Citysearch

This is definitely Atlanta's best seafood restaurant. All fish and shellfish is flown in daily (unfortunately, this means the menu may lack a couple of key dishes when the fish in question is out of season). Parking is easy, thanks to the valet. Without reservations, the waits get pretty long, but you can pass the time rocking on the porch rockers; people-watching in the bar; or scoping the raw fish in the main dining area's glass cases. The place is built like an airplane hangar and gets noisy when crowded (which it always is). Not great for an intimate date, but ideal for groups and business dinners. You can go as casual or as formal as you want - from jeans to coat and tie. As far as the menu, you can find basically any fish cooked any way, and it's all near-perfect, as is service.

• Pros: Great-quality fish, Great variety, Fun people scene
• Cons: Noise, Crowds

I love seafood and the Fish Market has the best. The drinks are good as well.

Catch This!

by purvis at Citysearch

The food was excellent and the service was prompt. I had the halibut and a friend of mine had the red snapper, both were prepared excellent.

The sushi appetizers here are also a winner!

Fresh fish

by ebergman_citysearch at Citysearch

Not your average fish house, the Atlanta Fish Market serves up some of the freshest seafood in town. My father raves about the deep-fried lobster tails. Entrees are pricey and even if you have a reservation expect a wait.

Perfect for a private party

by FlorrieBurch_Citysearch at Citysearch

We had our rehearsal dinner here last month and it was lovely. We had 50 people in our party, and we had reserved a private room that has its own entrance and has large windows that look down onto the main dining room. The experience couldn't have been better--the service was efficient and friendly, the room was elegant and the food was tasty (desserts were the lowlight, but I was stuffed by then anyway). I don't have a single complaint.
