We also enjoyed our cocktails. That old San Juan will put you underneath the table if you're not careful. (imagine an old-fashioned made with two types of rum). You can eat outdoors or in and the sound level isn't too loud all that's great, but the real star is the food. At our table, we had the spicy kale salad, fried oysters she crab soup, and blackened red fish. All of these dishes were expertly prepare prepared... but that black and red fish was a thing of beauty oh my gosh! Ridiculously delicious. If you're having trouble making up your mind, listen to me right now get the freaking blackened red fish, OK?! I almost forgot we also had dessert. Everyone except for me really loved that apple pudding cake. I thought it was just kind of a mess. But ohhhh, the Keylime pie!! A work of art! So very good.

Service is excellent, staff is friendly and always accommodating. The food here is always delicious and if you can't decide between options, the staff is well versed in making recommendations. Michael was wonderful with our large party noting dietary restrictions and making sure to mention ingredients for shared dishes. When one of our party wasn't happy with an entree the issue was rectified immediately and the manager also came over to ensure it was handled to our satisfaction. Overall all the dishes were fantastic and delicious. Every time I dine here I'm more impressed with the experience. 100/10!

It's in the same exact spot that it always has been, but definitely has had a much needed face-lift, that also includes a small rooftop. Parking is very limited, so I'm not sure what the options are if they are packed. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon, around 3pm and the place wasn't too packed, but we got the last available parking spot. When we arrived, we were greeted and the ordering process was explained to us. You select your seat and then order that the counter or the bar. The restaurant is cute and colorful inside. There's probably 8 or so booths for seating and stools at the bar. We ordered whiting basket, hushpuppies and catfish sandwich basket. The fish and the hushpuppies are the stars of everything! Our fish was fried and seasoned perfectly, both my husband's whiting and my catfish on my sandwich. You will not leave hungry! Although it's not cheap, they give you a lot of food! The hushpuppies could've came out the grease a few minutes earlier, but they were still really good! I'm a sucker for a hushpuppies with corn and a little sweetness! My only dislikes were the fries and the cheap ketchup, other than that, everything was really good! We'll definitely be back!!

This place really sticks out. I was unsure if I was in the right location but when I saw the…read morebuilding, I knew this venue is special to this neighborhood. There is less than 20 parking spots. The place considers itself an elevated self serve so parking will never be an issue. Since this is an elevated self serve, you can place an order at the counter in the back. You can get full service at the bar but there is a mandatory 20% tip. I see no issue with this. They do ask for additional tip and round up once you pay. They don't force it but they ask. I got the catfish basket. The hushpuppies have peppers and corn like mexican cornbread. The hushpuppies are really good but not worth a trip alone. The catfish was fried to perfection and seasoned good. The fries did not have any salt or seasoning at all which is weird since they are called cajun fries on the menu. They only have bottled water and all draft drinks cost $2 per refill. I got a pineapple lemonade which tasted good and house made. The cup was pretty small for a $5 drink and no refills. I would visit this place 2-3 more times if I lived close.

So I had seen this spot for ages and I have never been inside. So I tried to make a point to go in…read morebecause I was in the area. It's in a shopping center so there are plenty of parking, but you may not be able to park close to where you want to walk to the door to because there are so many other spots there. But the parking is free in Buckhead. So that's a plus! There's spaces inside and outside for you to go to, so that's good, but the inside is very nice and decorated very well. They have TV so you can watch sports but it's not a sports bar so don't get that confused. The bar is a nice size and set it pretty well. Not billions of bottles but just enough to what you need. Dean was my my server and bartender, super good customer service, very warm and communicative, and I would have come back just to sit at the bar with him again. The ball is very well kept and very clean, but the whole establishment was as well. They have a lot of space by the bar and to the other side of the restaurant as well. The menu is predominantly seafood related but they have other things as well. But they have a couple things that look like. They should be really really good so I am going to have to double back! Calamari - The calamari was pretty good. It came out really fast so it makes me think that they were already cooking by the time I ordered LOL. But it had a sweet chili sauce to it, but the calamari seem to be crispy and seasoned enough to where it wasn't a requirement. Brussel sprouts - brussel sprouts for good, kind of wish they had more of them but they were still pretty tasty. Overall. They had the vinaigrette flavor so I know that they were cooked well. They were more firmed and mushy so that was good. I would get them again and I was see. Can I get a full order instead of just a side order because they were just that good. Old bay fries - The Old Bay fries were okay. They had that sodium to where you needed ketchup to kind of bring the sweet. But they were still good though regardless. Shrimp tacos - these were good. Had 3 large shrimp. Got mine blackened and they were just the right amount of taste and flavor. The sauce on it was a little much but that was okay though, it balanced out all of the spice for the peppers and the shrimp seasoning. Gumbo - the gumbo was pretty good and it came in a large bowl, more than you would think a cup would be. Savory and tasty. Overall, with the quality of the food and the customer service, I feel like this place definitely deserves my attention again. The first time I went in I only had a couple of appetizers, and that really didn't do it justice.

My bride really liked her glass of Sauv Blanc. The glass is a nice size and the pour was really generous. We enjoyed the Fried Calamari app. My bride ordered Fish & Chips and I ordered the Lobster Roll. All the food was excellent. Great fries, really great Cole Slaw. Drinks and food arrived promptly and everything was at the proper temperature. Every staff person we met was cheerful and helpful with Deenie our server best in class. This was my second-ever Lobster Roll and it was the second-best after a Cousins Food Truck. The B's portion seem significantly smaller and, at $35, more expensive. In general, Big B's pricing is what lost them a star in my review. We will definitely return when we earn another $120...

I highly recommend making reservations if you want a smooth dining experience, especially during busy times.

It's a great way to grab a drink and a few bites without committing to a full dinner, and the bar area usually has a good after-work energy. As far as the food, I have several favorites. The Seafood Gumbo is always a good start, and the Seafood Fondeaux is rich, cheesy, and perfect for sharing. For entrées, the Redfish Pontchartrain and Fried Catfish are both solid choices. The Cobb Salad is another good option when I want something a little lighter. And I almost always get the Strawberry Lemonade. One important note if you don't eat pork: stay away from the Chicken & Sausage Gumbo and the Dirty Rice because both contain pork. I always appreciate knowing things like that ahead of time. The food is consistently flavorful and portions are generous, which is probably why this location stays so busy. Parking is technically ample because the lot is large, but don't let that fool you. After work and on weekends, this place can be packed. Give yourself extra time to circle the lot and find a space, and if you're coming during peak hours, be prepared for a wait. The atmosphere is lively and casual with that familiar Pappadeaux New Orleans-inspired feel. It's definitely not the place I'd choose if I wanted a quiet dinner, but for seafood, drinks, and a fun crowd, it works. I keep coming back because I know what I like, the food is dependable, and Happy Hour is always a good idea here.

Food: 5/5 We decided to try a leisurely lunch. The menu is not large, but it has enough variety to be interesting. Everything we tried was delicious. The smoked salmon appetizer portion was large, but the best part was the great flavor. I can see why this choice has been on the menu for years. The Vidalia onion soup will be a surprise for the non-Georgians who expect it to be similar to a savory beef broth like French onion soup. Georgia's onions from the Vidalia area are sweet and tasty enough to carry the soup without the help of a meat broth and the green pesto sauce offers a nice additional touch. The salmon on fresh salad was done perfectly. The panka-crusted cod with mashed potatoes and spinach was outstanding. Both were seasoned so lightly that the true flavors shone through. The portions were generous enough that dessert at the time would have been too much, but others can do as we did and take home one of the dessert choices. Next time we plan to try their sandwiches which looked yummy at other tables. Service : 5/5 Service was excellent from the pleasant greeting, through the entire meal. Our server, Clayton, couldn't have been more helpful with the menu, as well as being very efficient and amiable. He made sure our food was served promptly and our beverages glasses were full, and our requests were met quickly. Facility: The facility lends itself to the riverside experience from the canoe in the entryway ceiling to the flowers and bird feeders just beyond the patio tables. The white tablecloth ambiance informs you that this isn't a fast-food experience. There are tents set aside in a more private are of the garden as a lovely venue for special events Location : This isn't a quick roadside stop next to a 6-lane highway. Even though the restaurant is convenient to dine in an Atlanta suburb, the roads to the restaurant wind and meander for a short distance through one of the prettiest neighborhoods, with a canopy of large old trees, with lovely fences, hedges, and gates lining the road. There is courteous valet parking at the front door. The restaurant is not inexpensive but it is well worth the prices paid, in our opinion.

After trying twice to order takeout I have been unsuccessful. Depending on the night they…read morearbitrarily decide whether they will take takeout orders. I'd understand if they stated it online or somewhere but they decide each evening whether or not they will take any takeout orders and then only way to find out is by calling. This is incredibly frustrating because you can't plan or count on being able to get food from there and with a menu as expensive as theirs that's just unacceptable, in my opinion. My impression is that they are stuck in the 1980s around when they opened and don't want to update the experience. Hence their post strict dress code and arbitrary takeout policy.
