Description:
AIRPORT AREA. Loud, lively and rustic, this casual eatery near the airport has nurtured quite a loyal following with its fun ambience and simple, fantastic seafood. Tuck into fresh clams or oysters to start (you can be a purist and order them raw or try them fried or steamed), and then try their crab cakes, a chunky gumbo or chowder, or even sweet, delicate crab. Steaks are also available, along with burgers, salads and other light fare. The bar is well-equipped to serve your favorite poison, and casual good times are always the name of the game.

Description:
DOWNTOWN. Venerable Ray's on the River has established an outpost in the city, and it's a beautiful place, complete with an aquarium, an onyx bar, tiled walls and ambient lighting. Seafood is delivered several times daily, and everything is impeccably fresh. Terrific oysters from the raw bar are a briny treat, and the sushi bar offers favorite rolls fashioned to your specs. Much of the fish is simply grilled, but there's also grouper with a horseradish crust, ginger-glazed yellow fin tuna, lump crab cakes, and a wonderful broiled seafood platter. Pork, chicken and steak satisfy landlubbers who can't give up their comfort zones.

BUCKHEAD. The extensive menu at this casual Southern restaurant features only the freshest seafood. Although the menu changes daily, typical entrees include seafood brochette with orzo, potato-crusted cod, broiled fresh-water lobster tails, and cashew swordfish. The enormous copper fish out front is a popular Buckhead landmark, and the bustling bar is a fun place to wait for a table. Reservations recommended.

Chops and Lobster Bar |

Distance:

Description:
BUCKHEAD. Chops, a swanky local favorite, is often frequented by power brokers and features hushed tones and a well-stocked display case. Steaks take center stage, of course, and you can choose from a range of cuts and sizes. Side dishes are also noteworthy, going beyond run-of-the-mill salads and baked potatoes to include creamed spinach and walnut-raisin bread. If you want something lighter, opt for the Lobster Bar downstairs, which offers the featured crustacean along with yellow fin tuna, almond-crusted swordfish and grilled sea scallops. The wine list is excellent.

Description:
BUCKHEAD. Traditional blue and white indicate immediately that the Aegean world is the focus of this appealing restaurant. Bolstering the theme are a twinkling, sky-like ceiling and massive marble columns. The cuisine recalls a coastal Greek village, and much of the fresh seafood the restaurant is known for is actually flown in from the Mediterranean. Grilled swordfish, sauteed Maine lobster, and ouzo-baked prawns join in, and lamb, duck, chicken, and steak are available as well. You also must sample the terrific supply of appetizers, which include the widely acclaimed wood-grilled octopus and plump dolmades with tzatziki.

Superb service, an excellent wine list and a large, cigar-friendly bar round out its impressive offerings.

Description:
BUCKHEAD. Some restaurants are known for excellent steak, and some are known for terrific seafood, but few earn a fantastic reputation for both. Prime, located in Lenox Square Mall, is the exception to that rule. Sophisticated and upscale, the dining room is adorned with touches of marble, a setting that befits the selection of great steaks. If beef doesn't prove tempting, look to live Maine lobster, wood-grilled salmon or soy-marinated sea bass. You'll also find deep-fried lobster tail, seared tuna and everything from lamb to pork and rotisserie duck. Enjoy them all, but don't forget to sample a martini or a vintage from their extensive wine list. Sushi available.

Terrific service is also a plus.
