Floataway CafeA deliciously good timeMy Boss and I started the evening meal with the Gulf Blue Crab Fritter with white bean salad. By far, one of the best fritters I have had. All crab, perfectly cooked and crispy, and the salad had a citrus vinaigrette that made the dish light and delicious. For our entree, my boss selected the Wood Grilled Niman Ranch pork porterhouse. Perfect selection if you are very hungry and enjoy pork. I chose a more adventurous route with Black Calamaretti, Georgia white shrimp, and young squid. The pasta had a saltiness to it that was well balanced by perfectly cooked squid and shrimp. A very delicious dish that was worth trying. If you're looking for good food, and a quaint and quiet environment, then the Floataway Cafe is a great choice.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways deliversAs usual Floataway Cafe did a great job. Whether you have a big dinner party looking for small plates, great meals and great wine or looking for a quiet dinner this restaurant is great. I do recommend choosing off peak nights for quiet dinners as with any other great 'well known secret' Atlanta restaurant.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMAnniversary dinnerRelaxed atmosphere, good food and friendly staff made for a great evening during our first visit.

Exceptional food with the finest ingredients. Our favorite spot. And it keeps getting better.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMFloataway Cafe's food is aFloataway Cafe's food is a gourmet's delight. It provides very fine food in a non-stuffy environment. The service is attentive and many of the tables are so private that one can carry on a true, adult conversation. The appetizers are especially appealing, but my trout was also amazing.
Although the name of the restaurant implies some watery location, it is actually in a formerly industrial area and housed the Floataway Garage Door factory when overhead garage doors came into existence. So encountering this wonderful restaurant in such an out-of-the-way location feels a little adventurous and fun.4/2/2013 12:00:00 AMOlive oil soft serve a must haveHad a great experience!
