    We had an excellent meal at The Atlantic last night. The oysters were fresh and amazing along with the other fish dishes we had. Nice ambiance and a fun restaurant.

    We loved the experience and the vibe, however the food was very bland and not up to our standards. The service and ambience was amazing.

    We shared a combination of entrees which was a great way to taste a few different things that Atlantic have to offer; the Kingfish was very good. Crayfish for main was perfect. Overall Atlantic's Seafood is excellent as well as with their non seafood dishes!

    I recently celebrated my birthday at this fantastic seafood restaurant, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect setting for a special occasion. The staff were attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyment of the evening. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to indulge in fresh seafood in a delightful ambiance.

    Food was quite nice but service was just a little off this time. Took ages to get our first drink... Drinks arrived well after out starters which was disappointing. We ordered 4 small plates to start which was a fair amount but then the mains arrived some 10 mins after we finished starters. No time to sit back and enjoy the evening when everything is so rushed. Then waited some time to order get second drink ordered but this arrived more or less immediately. Couple of the staff gave my wife a nice Happy Birthday rendition with dessert which was a nice touch and appreciated. None of us will be on Idol any time soon though. Its always very nice when we eat at the Atlantic but being as rushed as it seemed was a small let down. Staff are lovely as always.. It just not not quite work this time. We were 2nd sitting so not late so just a small off night i guess. We will always go back. Its still a favorite..

    Got seated extremely quickly by lovely FOH staff, got asked if there were any dietary requirements 3 times by the same waiter. We ordered drinks and they came relatively quickly but were disappointed that they didn’t have Reisling by the glass. For a shared entree we had the softshell crab which was nice but there were bits of the shell still on it. For mains we had the whiting which was equivalent to what you would get at a pub but for double the price AND Spaghetti Morten Bay Bug which was overcooked and tasted off, when we bought this to our waiters attention they offered to remake it but we settled with a very slight discount on it as we had other plans to get to. Overall not worth the money and would most likely not return.

    The oysters and fish were fresh and fish prepared just right. But over an hour wait for the entrees was very disappointing. Will not go back!
