Sip a Sidecar in the lounge, sidle up to the oyster bar, or kick back in a horseshoe booth before diving into a… sea of Ultra-Fresh fish, including steak-cut Alaskan halibut, seasonal favorites like fresh Copper River salmon or hard-to-find delicacies like true Dover sole or bluefin tuna. Our daily-printed menu will guide you, a wine list as deep as the sea will seduce you, and the world's freshest seafood awaits you at the Oceanaire. Continued

Diner Reviews
  • "The food and customer service was excellent. we celebrated our wedding anniversary and they even gave us a keep sake menu with Happy Anniversary on it."
    Dined on 3/8/2014
  • "Greeted by an amateurish service staff with lots of attitude who had difficulty finding a table. Principal wait staff went around calling his patrons "darlings" with a lot of flair yet unearned familiarity. The main entree dish arrived ahead of the appetizer and when asked where the appetizer was, he responded "Oh do you want it all at the same time?" Server then took the main dish away and brought the appetizer after which the main entree returned dried out from its extended time unde the heatlamps. After getting a hefty bill for escargot and salmon I discovered the main door had been barracated and no one was around to direct the patrons to the appropriate exit causing a fire hazzard and code violation. Overall a very poor experience."

  • "We had the pleasure of celebrating a birthday during a recent visit to Oceanaire. For the main course, my wife had the seared yellowtail snapper with lemon/capers sauce, and the searing was absolutely perfect. I had the king crab legs, which were also excellent. We complemented our meal with a wonderful Duckhorn sauvignon blanc, and ended with large caramel chocolate cake. Our server John was a true professional -- offering recommendations when requested, always around when we wanted him, and at the same time avoiding being intrusive. While the food and the service were key, I should also mention the restaurant's layout -- very spacious and not at all crowded, which added to a very enjoyable dining experiences."

  • "It was a group of 10 and we had a remarkable time. The service was fast and the food tasted great. We closed down the restaurant."
    Dined on 3/8/2014
  • "My wife and I have been to this restaurant several times, in fact, we kinda labeled it our favorite. I'm sorry to say, this visit was a bad experience to remember. She ordered a broiled lobster stuffed with crab, she received a boiled lobster and no crab. I ordered a scoop of banana and a scoop of chocolate gelato for desert, I got a scoop of vanilla and a scoop of banana. Our waiter was switched mid-stream and there were long gaps between visits, which resulted in our getting our food over a protracted amount of time. By the time we were finished, it was so late, we wanted to lay our head on the table and take a nap!"

  • "Enjoyed celebrating my Dad's 70th birthday at the restaurant - the baked Alaska was a hit!"
    Dined on 3/1/2014
  • "Went for a birthday and the staff were great. Loved the scallops , shrimp, Mac and Gouda, and baked Alaska for a finish."
    Dined on 3/1/2014
  • "Coming from an area of Atlanta that is known for amazing restaurants makes me wonder why we left our community for this! They, Oceanaire, kill you with service in order for you not to notice their prices for just average food! At the end of the night you will have spent a small fortune for a 3 star meal at best!"
    Dined on 3/1/2014
  • "I'm a pretty tough critic to call something "perfect", but I honestly have to say that our experience was truly perfect. The food was awesome, the ambiance was inviting and the service was impeccable. I will most definitely be back again!"
    Dined on 2/28/2014
  • "This was our first dining experience and it will not be our last. The atmosphere was wonderful and the staff was great! The food was delicious."
    Dined on 2/28/2014
  • "My husband of twenty four years and I wanted a romantic dinner for our date night. Oceanaire was perfect. My husband loves seafood and the fresh snapper recommended by our waiter did not disappoint. It was delicious. For me, the crab cakes were a delight. In addition, martinis, mussels, an attentive waiter. and excellent ambiance, made our date very, very special."

  • "Service was perfect. Table was private. Great food out with long-time friends"
    Dined on 2/28/2014
  • "Nice ambiance. Attentive knowledgeable service, but the actively up-sell the menu. The food is good but not as extraordinary as the prices."
    Dined on 2/25/2014
  • "Daniel was our waiter... he suggests that he works for us. I called him a 'food and service broker'. Great food. The restaurant was quiet but we were there around 5:30pm so a little early and it was Monday night."
    Dined on 2/24/2014
  • "This was our first time at this restaurant and we celebrated my husband's birthday. The food was excellent and our server was very personable, attentive and friendly. The food was slow getting to our table but we chalked it up to it being Sunday night and the restaurant was probably running on half staff."
    Dined on 2/23/2014
  • "Shared the sampler for 2 as always. Our server actually dropped a lobster tail & claw & replaced it without missing a beat. I had the Sesame crusted Ahi tuna. It was fine, but I could have gotten the same at Outback. Hubby had Costa Rican Mahi Mahi. Tasty, but the chutney was sweet. What's important here is the opportunity to enjoy a leisurely dinner with excellent service, unhurried. They also make an excellent cocktail, but you may have to send it back for it to be 100% to your liking. I quite enjoyed the house specialty with Hendricks Gin, lime, ginger beer. Can't remember the name."

  • "The crab cakes were awesome. Great experience! Highly recommend!"

  • "This restaurants is one of my favorites in Atlanta. Great celebration after V-Day. Waiter was a bit off and not as attentive as usual. But that is not indicative of the normal. But since it was my lady's first time there. It rubbed her the wrong way"
    Dined on 2/22/2014
  • "Enjoyed oceanaire once again. Food was fresh and service was excellent. Daniel is awesome! Will always request him."

    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "Very disappointed in the food & service quality given the cost. Overlooked shrimp, poorly flavored mussels, limp broccolini for example. We were visiting our daughter in college for family weekend and she wanted seafood, we regret this choice and wish that we'd spent the $150 elsewhere."
    Dined on 2/21/2014
  • "Nice restaurant to celebrate my wife's birthday. Probably wouldnt go back to spend another $200 though."
    Dined on 2/20/2014
  • "I guess my expectations were to high for this place. I read some of the reviews from online and thought it would be a great place to take my girlfriend while we were on vacation to atlanta that weekend. But I was sadly wrong. Most of the food did have a stylish decoration and was plated well, but the taste left me foulmouthed, and I was unable to finish any of the dishes, except an appetizer my girlfriend and I shared. I had to send mine back because of the fishy taste it left in my mouth. All in all I would not recommend this place to anyone, we ate at a casual place the next day, spent less than half, consumed better tasting food, and received superbly better service."

  • "This is definitely a attentispot for a special occasion. The food was good but a bit overpriced for what you get. Our server was very attentive."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "The restaurant was very romantic. The mood was set for an enjoyable Valentine's Day dinner. However, we were there for over an hour before our two entrees came to the table. We sat down around 6:15pm and our entrees didn't arrive at our table until 7:30pm! We needed to leave shortly after to make it to a show at the Fox Theater, so we requested boxes for our food after just a few bites. It took an additional 15 min for them to bring the boxes. The food was good, atmosphere was nice and servers were polite. I would go back and eat here again, but I would not go back on a busy night such as Valentine's Day. I understand that they may have been a busier because of the occasion."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "My husband and I went to dinner on Valentine's Day and were extremely pleased with our choice. The restaurant had a special Valentine's menu and it was excellent -- lots of choices and variety and everything was fabulous! We will definitely be back! Thx!"
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "I gave it 3 stars for the food because it wasn't that good for the price. When I'm paying more for a nice restaurant I want the food to be unique, good, and not something I could get at another place. So while still good I'm not sure it was at the level I was expecting. The ambiance of the place is really nice. The decor and feel of the restaurant was very well done. The service was slow. We ordered drinks and it took about 25 minutes before the drinks came or anyone said anything to us. The total dining time was several hours and that was result of the slow service. This, in my opinion, is not acceptable for restaurant of that level. However, I was there for Valentines day so I'm not sure if that played a part or not."
