We ordered a ton of food and while most of it taste really great, I didn’t feel like it was “to die for”. Also parking is  not ideal and not validated. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very well done. Our server was very nice and welcoming. We went for our 5 year anniversary, I emailed them before asking if they do anything and never heard back which was a little disappointing.

Food
Hawaiian Rolls - 5 stars served with a whipped butter and jam that were great
French Onion Soup - 4 stars good and full of flavor, enough to split
Kale salad - 5 stars the salad had a nice Cesar dressing with fried shallots on top
Snapper - 3.5 stars, the fish was cooked to the perfect temp and most of the skin had a good crunch. The beans it’s served on didn’t wow me
Duck - 3.5 stars, the Duck was good but the side it was served with didn’t hit the mark for my partner.
Fingerling Potatoes - 5 stars, Crispy and delicious with cheese and aioli
Mock Tails - 6 stars (out of 5), these were amazing and you can tell they used fresh ginger!

Absolutely amazing,  what a great experience we had, from the exquisite food parings to wine selection.  Couldn't fault anything.  We will be back.  Oysters such a wide selection & beautifully clean,  Duck, so crispy & so tender. Pork with an Asian flare, dessert to die for! Just amazing!
Thank you to Dan G for caring for us & making us feel Like we were the only ones in the restaurant.  Thank you we really enjoyed our time there.

Loved this place! The food, service, and ambiance were all impeccable. Highly recommend trying their oysters. I personally liked the Murder Point oysters. The chicken roulade and duck breast were sublime. The crème brûlée was absolutely divine. *Chef's kiss*

I was given great recommendations from multiple people about this place. The service was excellent, our waiter was so friendly, but the food was incredibly disappointing.

We ordered the snapper crudo, onion soup, roasted oysters, chicken roulade, trout, rum cake.

Roasted oysters: The best thing we got! The salsa macha butter was a bit bland, but the oysters were really nicely cooked and the crunch of the potato was extremely pleasant. Highly recommended and maybe the only thing I'd get if I came back here.

Snapper crudo: I think coconut milk, snapper, and grapefruit have no business being served together. The fried taste of the sunchoke chip was so dissonant. I'm not sure what the inspiration for this dish was. I don't think any of the flavors made sense. This was a miss for me.

Onion soup: Not much to write home about, a fairly standard French onion soup, done well with everything you could want from one.

Chicken roulade: The portion was massive. I found the chicken to be really intense and really salty. It's like eating an entire ham steak on your own. In general, you don't want to eat something so rich and homogenous in so many bites. The texture goes from interesting to unpleasant after the first few bites. The risotto was really soft and mushy, overcooked and gloopy

Trout: The trout was cooked really nice. Very delicate and flakey, really moist. The problem, however, were the sides. When you see braised greens, you expect tender, soft greens. While flavorful they were quite fiberous and chewy, unpleasantly so. The grits had hard, gritty lumps, some big chunks of just cold, gelatinized corn. It just felt really poorly reheated.

Honey rum: This was fine. the filling was good. The crust wasn't anything interesting

I don't mean to be so anal about my critiques. But given the $200 that was spent, only 1 dish felt worthwhile, while most had really big misses on key components, while 1 dish I do not think belongs on the menu. I'm a little disappointed as I was looking forward to this meal and there was some hype around it. I cannot say that I would return at this time, but our waiter, I cannot emphasize enough, was the highlight of my experience

In my top 3 favorite restaurants in and around Atlanta!  You NEED a few pine point petite oysters, some steak tartare, and caviar & middlins (one of the best dishes anywhere.  Period.).
