Carmel is a love letter to the coast—the ocean breeze, the freedom, the elements that make you feel so good when you’re next to the water. We serve Contemporary Seafood and embrace a gastronomic narrative centered around the celebration of premium seafood and seasonal produce. From the cozy yet elegant interior to the seasonal menu and craft cocktails, every detail reflects our passion for the oceanside experience.

Our menu showcases high-quality, sustainable seafood skillfully paired with fresh, local ingredients. Whether it's sophisticated crudos, wood-fired oysters, fish, lobster, dry-aged steak, or vibrant cocktails, we would love to take you on a journey to your favorite waterfront destination. Let the ocean breeze carry you away...

Weekday Lunch is served at Carmel’s Bar. We do not accept reservations for lunch, though walk-ins are always welcome at any time of day. Gratuity is applied to parties of 6+. Parties of 9+, please submit an inquiry at CarmelATL.com>Reservations.

We took our mother to Carmel for a Mother’s Day dinner, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Our server, David, was absolutely amazing—knowledgeable, attentive, and made us feel truly taken care of. The bartenders also deserve a shoutout for crafting a custom drink that was both unique and delicious. The only minor challenge was the parking, which was a bit tricky to navigate, but we managed to figure it out. They do offer a parking discount if you bring your ticket, which was a nice touch. Overall, a lovely dining experience with excellent service. Highly recommend!

The grilled oysters were delicious, the caviar fries came out cold but I could see the potential if they were hot and the grilled shrimp came overcooked! 2/10 probably won’t come back

BABeeeeyyyyyyy!! I WAS NOT READTTT!! The ambiance was fire! The service was fire! The decor was fire!!! And the food......wowsers! Mouthwatering Whole Lobster so soft, buttery and seasoned to perfection! Sounds cliche, but it's the absolute truth! And the Blackened Okra - the Chef snapped with that recipe!!! I could return just to order the Blackened Okra and be satisfied, frfr. The Roasted Chicken was perfectly seasoned and fork tender. The Sunchokes, shitake and Chimichurri were a perfect match with it! While every member of the team acknowledged us as they past, Matt, our server was on point!!! Classy, classy place with excellent leadership in. The ascension of service is felt immediately upon entering!! When I say we will return soon!! Thanks for an amazing dining experience.

Our first time at Carmel. Appetizers and salad were great. The grilled shrimp arrived - awful. Very mushy and smelled off. We told the server and he apologized but no offer to help. We asked for manager and none was around. Paid our bill and left. Would not recommend.
