The Optimist 🦪 | A Seafood Lover’s Dream in Atlanta!

If you're craving fresh, flavorful seafood in a vibrant setting, The Optimist in Midtown is an absolute must-visit! From the ambiance to the plates, every detail feels thoughtfully crafted. 🦪 Oysters – Fresh & Divine! Tried them both raw and grilled—the raw oysters were sweet, plump, and straight-from-the-ocean refreshing 🤤. The grilled ones came with a rich garlic butter finish. 💡 Happy Hour Tip: Grab them for just $1.50 each during happy hour! ⏰ Mon–Fri: 5–6 PM | Sat–Sun: 3–5 PM 🍤 Shrimp a la Plancha Juicy, perfectly cooked shrimp in a bold, savory sauce—ideal with the toasted bread it comes with. 🦞 Lobster Roll Packed with tender lobster meat and served with crispy chips—simple, satisfying, and delicious. 🍣 Tuna Tataki Lightly seared and seasoned, with fresh herbs enhancing its delicate flavor. 🍔 The Optimist Burger A surprise star! Juicy, well-seasoned, and served with golden fries. Even burger specialists would approve! 🥣 She Crab Soup A bit on the salty side for me—the crab’s natural sweetness got a little lost. ✨ Vibe & Vibe Check Industrial-loft-meets-coastal-bistro vibes 🏭🌊. Perfect for dates, group dinners, or happy hour sips! 📍 Location: 914 Howell Mill Rd, Atlanta, GA 30318 💰 Price Range: $50–100 per person 📅 Reservations strongly recommended!
