📍 Atlanta · My Favorite Oyster Spot! 🦪✨

Been here countless times—this seafood haven is a must for oyster lovers. The menu features up to 12 oyster varieties that change with the seasons, so there's always something new to try. 🦪 Row Oysters – We ordered all 12 varieties! Each one offered unique flavors, from crisp and sweet to rich and briny. Super fresh and satisfying. 🥗 Watermelon Salad – A quirky but wonderful surprise. Savory-sweet, refreshing, and perfect for summer. So unique and tasty! 🦀 Crab Soup – Intensely rich, like sipping pure crab essence. Paired with crispy, fluffy shrimp toast—a match made in heaven. 🐙 Grilled Octopus – Incredibly tender with a zesty Vietnamese-style sauce—tangy, spicy, and totally addictive. ⚠️ Fried Oysters – The only letdown. The batter was thick and overly greasy. Not recommended. 🥂 Paired with a chilled glass of white wine, it was a seafood feast to remember. Can't wait to go back! 📍 The Optimist 914 Howell Mill Rd, Atlanta, GA 30318 #Atlanta #OysterBar #SeafoodLovers #TheOptimist #AtlantaEats #FoodieDestination #SeasonalMenu #MustTry #RevisitWorthy #FreshSeafood
