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 restaurant is quite large, but it can still get crowded, especially on weekends and at dinner time. Reservations are highly encouraged.
