Atlanta Fish House and Grill

"You can’t order at the window at Atlanta Fish House & Grill. So this Campbellton Road seafood restaurant is always full of cars phoning in their orders or waiting for their pick-up time. When it's your turn, pull around to the window, then put your car in park because you'll need to use two hands and all your core strength to grab these weighty styrofoam takeout containers filled to the brim with lightly fried catfish, whiting, shrimp, and fries. It's like a summer fish fry party on wheels." - juli horsford, jacinta howard

"If the electric teal of this restaurant just off Campbellton Road doesn't catch your attention, the crowds in the parking lot will. People flock to Atlanta Fish House & Grill for giant styrofoam takeout containers filled to the brim with fried fish and crinkle fries. And they’re right to—even if the fries could use a little more seasoning, the lightly fried whiting reminds us of a summer fish fry party. To avoid the wait, order ahead of time online and then head straight to the drive-thru window to pick up your food. Food Rundown Fried Shrimp These jumbo shrimp have a nice, light breading and enough salt to be satisfying. Dunk ‘em into the tartar sauce and you're good to go. Fried Whiting & Fries If you're stumped on which fried fish to go with, this is your answer—mainly because the portion feels more generous than the fried shrimp (size does matter). Each order comes with three large pieces of flaky whiting and crinkle fries, which could use some help in the seasoning department but are crunchy and golden brown nonetheless. Fish Tacos If you're craving good-enough fish tacos, that's what you'll get with these flour tortillas filled with fried white fish, lettuce, onion, a sprinkle cheese, and a heavy dose of the spicy hammerhead sauce. Dirty Bird We don't recommend skipping seafood here. But if you insist, order this buttery bun holding a thick piece of fried chicken, melty cheese, a dollop of mayo, and a tangy hot sauce that gives the sandwich some pep." - Juli Horsford

"Order everything from wings by the dozen and fried fish or chicken sandwiches to burgers and family meal boxes loaded with fried whiting, jumbo shrimp, fries, coleslaw, and hushpuppies. The restaurant includes online ordering and a convenient drive-thru window." - Eater Staff
