This may be my new favorite seafood restaurant in Atlanta! I love the vibe of the restaurant (trendy/industrial) and the food is delicious. Make sure to book reservations in advance, as it's usually booked up.

The octopus was listed as a must have in many reviews, and we agreed. I also had a few oysters which were very good. My swordfish entree was delicious, and the hush puppies were very good. Cocktails also did not disappoint.

They had some nice live music that we enjoyed after dinner, and the service was great. Can't wait to go back!
