We have a lot of coastline in Georgia, and with that comes some delicious seafood. It may surprise you to learn that one of the best spots for fresh seafood in Georgia is hours away from the beach, up in the heart of Atlanta. The Atlanta Fish Market is well-known for the massive fish statue that sits outside and also its remarkably fresh seafood that's flown in daily. You can get fish and crustaceans from all over the country here. Oysters from Rhode Island, lobsters from Maine, fish from Florida: it's all on the menu here!
The largest sea creature you'll find here is The Great Fish, the 65-foot statue that stands tall above the restaurant, right next to a little fountain.
The Great Fish holds the official world record as the largest fish statue in the world.
This upscale spot features seafood flown in from all over the world, so even if your lobster's coming all the way from Maine, you know it will be as fresh as possible.
The restaurant is quite large, but it can still get crowded, especially on weekends and at dinner time. Reservations are highly encouraged.
You'll find a variety of dishes here, including oysters, lobster, fried fish, sushi, baked fish, and plenty more. The number of species on the menu is mind-boggling!
Atlanta's status as a transportation hub allows fresh seafood to be flown in from other regions each day.
The seafood here is amazing and as good as any you'd find right on the coast.
It's no wonder that the Atlanta Fish Market has been open for over 30 years. This is one of the most enjoyable dining experiences in Atlanta.
