Probably the best oysters in Atlanta, The Optimist delivers quality foodstuffs and delicious craft cocktails. This fairly upscale venue house prices that we consider to be reasonable for the level of quality. Definitely try all their appetizers. The daily happy hour featuring dollar oysters is a must if you're looking for delicious bivalve mollusks. I've also never been disappointed by their bar and strangely enough the house espresso is also quite good. Overall I think my favorite item on the menu is the octopus which is just about perfect. There is valet parking on site.
