    Rahim's Seafood
    Ahmad W.

    I visited for the first time ever on 5-8-2026. This spot is deep in East Point. The reputation precede this place iykyk. Established in 1972. The first seafood restaurant in Atlanta GA. The food is cooked to order. Fresh hot and delicious. This fish sandwich is a sandwich and a half! Best fish sandwich I ever had! I got the fish supreme combo comes with fries and a can soda. Pull up and check them out definitely worth the trip not a disappointment. Great people with the customer service and environment.

    If you don't mind traveling through the trenches to get food then here ya go! I ordered online that seems to be a problem but after a 45 minute wait I finally got food! It was pretty good but there are places with a little faster service. I will not give them a bad review but I can't give them five stars either. We will try them again because the food was decent!

    If you're truly from Atlanta -- especially the Westside -- Rahim's Seafood needs no introduction. This place has been feeding the city since 1972, starting on MLK for 30 years and now holding it down on Campbellton Road for the last 18 years. That kind of longevity doesn't happen by accident. Rahim's was the first Black-owned seafood restaurant in Atlanta to serve fresh fish, and you can tell the legacy is still alive and well. The founder may be gone, but his daughter now runs the restaurant, and the quality, flavor, and heart are still there. Let's talk food. The Rahim wings with the special sauce are a MUST -- battered, crispy, and full of flavor. These are real old-school wings, not trendy, just done right. The whiting sandwich is huge and perfectly fried. The fried okra is crispy with zero slime. And the fried fish and shrimp platter? Fresh, hot, seasoned well, and the portion is generous. The real star for me was the homemade tartar sauce -- creamy, tangy, and perfect on both the shrimp and fish. You can tell it's made in-house and not poured out of a bottle. Rahim's isn't flashy or trying to be something it's not. It's consistent, historic, and rooted in the community. This is the kind of place generations grew up on -- and that matters. If you're visiting Atlanta and want real food with real history, or if you're local and somehow haven't been yet, do yourself a favor and stop by. Rahim's Seafood is a Westside staple and a true piece of Atlanta history.

    Great spot. It's a typical hole in the wall--not much to look at from the outside but bursting with flavor and amazing food. It wasn't very crowded. I dropped in for a late lunch. The owners/attendants are very kind and make sure you understand the menu and get exactly what you ordered. They have a pretty extensive menu of various combinations of fish, shrimp, and the like. Parking is limited. They also have an assort of desserts that I didn't get a chance to try but that fish is amazing. The wait is about 15 minutes. There is a decent amount of indoor seating. The fish comes come with this delectable coleslaw, fries, and delicious shrimp. They do good fried seafood right. The hushpuppies are interesting. They are like a sweet, fried cookie. They are not like any hushpuppies I've ever had. Take that for whatever you think it means. But I love the fish and the shrimp and that terrific coleslaw. They have wings to but I don't see the point with all of that amazing seafood. The owner is very sweet and makes sure you get exactly what you ordered and what you need. Great spot! Get the floudner and the whiting!

    The food was enjoyable and flavorful. The whiting was cooked to perfection and the shrimp. In my opinion it's a little over priced.

I started asking questions about this and that and he answered every question with a smile on his face, letting me know his favorites, best sellers, etc. I chose the Cajun pasta with chicken and added shrimp, slice of garlic bread and a big ole piece of chocolate cake, washed down with a Cherry Coke and let me tell you...it was the best meal I've had in Atlanta! This was my first time stopping in here, but I've been to the ATL a bunch through the years, from high end to hole in the wall places, North to South of the city, but I'll be stopping in here again on my next time through. Located about 10 minutes from the airport it was perfect to grab dinner to go on my way to my hotel. The gentleman and I talked travel, food, football as I waited and I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation but what I didn't know was his wife was kicking up some of the best Cajun pasta I've ever eaten! Sorry man, she is the star of the show! I had perfectly cooked shrimp, mixed it with a hearty portion of chicken but the Cajun sauce was perfection. I soaked up perfectly with the garlic bread for an incredible feast! Thank you for welcoming me in and making my last meal in ATL memorable. Until next time!

    This is a Small seafood spot that has apparently been known to have food food. I went and I only…read moredrank so I can't speak on that. So let's cover the ambience and service. Again,it's small venue: you really shouldn't come here with a slew of people if you can help it. They have some outdoor seating as well, but not a lot, so you don't want to count on that, but it's kind of intimate. The bar fits maybe six to eight seats at most, and the general seating probably no more than 20 people. It's in a shopping center area, so it's free parking when you go, and there's a number of other things there. You could easily start with this spot and then go to a show and then end up in a cigar lounge, so at least that's a little bit of flexibility. I had the House malbac which was pretty good. I'm looking around, though, and I noticed that the food looks amazing. It made me feel bad for not eating, LOL. Everybody says that it is good, but I just can't speak on it. It looks amazing, so I wanted to make sure I say that. I sat at the bar, and the bartenders kind of were in and out. There were maybe four people at the bar aside from myself. The bartenders kept disappearing, so I wasn't sure about the whole service component with this place. Once you get their attention, you're good, but it just seemed like there were a lot of disappearing acts. I gotta give them grace because it looked like the bartender was dropping off food as well, so I can't wholly take off for that because it looks like they had him doing double duty. If you're into seafood and you want some crab cakes or some salmon, you should probably at least take a look at the menu. It's a good stop-off point, so I would definitely suggest giving it a shot if you're in the area.

Hubby ordered the lobster soup and the salmon bites -- both were flavorful and cooked perfectly. I went with the southern fried chicken topped with hot honey, paired with kale and turkey, and mac and cheese. Everything on my plate was so good -- seasoned to perfection, crispy where it needed to be, and comforting all around. I also ordered a strawberry lemon drop, and let me just say... they did not come to play with the drinks. Delicious and strong in the best way. On top of the amazing food and drinks, the service was excellent -- attentive, friendly, and fast. We'll definitely be back! A total vibe from start to finish.

I wanted fried fish but not French fries and I saw that there were grilled veggies on the menu. No substitutions. I saw conch on the menu and wanted to sub it for the shrimp on one of the combos. No substitutions. That's the reason I didn't give them 5 stars. The young lady they have working the register was pleasant and even when she told me no, it wasn't a Nasty No. There are tables to sit down and eat so the atmosphere is not bad and honestly what you should expect from a spot like this. The prices are very reasonable and you get a good bit of food so the value is on point. I had the catfish nuggets and they were cooked to perfection with the perfect amount of seasoning. They were crunch on the outside and soft and flaky on the inside. The tarter tasted homemade. The fries were nothing special and I had a plate full of them remaining. The coleslaw was decent and added a reprieve to the fried fish. The grilled veggies were probably from a bag but they were seasoned decently and did the job. Bae had the gizzards and they were pretty good as well. (Of course I had to taste em lol) I was disappointed that I couldn't get conch or conch fritters or conch salad but it was late and I know spot run out of popular items sometimes. Nevertheless, I will be back.

They have a upstairs eating area also. This place is simple but cute. It was lunchtime and service was top tier. I was greeted once walking in and immediately seated.

He was so nice, knew the menu, made recommendations, and kept a check on me.

The dining room can get loud if all the tables. Full bar / wine serving Cajun style with a "Atlantean" flair. Service: 5 stars Rarely do I give a 5 star rating for a server but our server was exceptional. He was polite, friendly, helpful and was very attentive. He mentioned some recommendations and as a foodie himself, he made a couple recommendations. Food: 4-4.4 stars Shrimp Po-Boy: 4 Stars for the Po-Boy due to amount of shrimp, though they were larger than normal. The shrimp was seasoned and lightly breaded. However, the bread was wonderful. Light, airy, flaky and had the right amount of crunch to it. The creole sauce was good but the Po-Boy needed some additional hot sauce. The perfectly cooked fries were AWESOME! Highly recommend to get a side if your entree doesn't come with it. Lightly salted with hint of other seasoning and herbs and had the right amount of chew and crunch to them. Also, I believe the oil they use was a better quality than normal. Blacken Mahi-Mahi- 5 Stars The grilled blackened fish has the perfect on of Creole seasoning and was topped with a house-made Chimichurri Sauce and possibly honey. Served with seasonally roasted root vegetables. My wife loved it so much the plate was practically cleaned! LOL! Dessert Beignet - 3.75 Stars By our server's recommendation we ordered a serving of 3 beignets w Pecan Praline Caramel sauce. The beignets were hot and fresh and had a "snowy" amount of powdered sugar. It was covered with goodness. When we bit into them, they were light, airy and had a bit of a chew to them. My wife likes them more than Cafe Du Monde but I thought the dough had more chewiness to them. The Praline sauce was ok. Also, the sauce is extra $3.50. NOTE: Do not order a carton of water - Cost $5. Wasn't worth it. Get regular water. If we were staying another day, we would definitely come back. I highly recommend the place. Also, the have another located situated in downtown Atlanta. But I suggest to stop by at the OG place in College Park. Small time atmosphere with great food! Enjoy!
