"The big patio at Big Ketch is shaded and has TVs, so it’s easy to tune out the cars whizzing past on Roswell Road. And that’s our preferred place to be at this uber-casual seafood joint when it’s time to run up a tab filled with $2 oysters, $10 crab claws, and a $5 rotating cocktail." - juli horsford
"We don’t have the luxury of oceanfront vistas, so the concrete parking lot views at this Buckhead joint are nothing to rave about. But if you want to indulge in a few rounds of these oysters while a breeze kisses your cheek, Big Ketch's patio is where to do it. It’s large, shaded, and has TVs, so it's easy to tune out the cars whizzing past on Roswell Road. If the patio isn’t enough to sway you, the uber-casual joint also has the best happy hour deal on the list with $1 oysters for a full three hours every weekday." - juli horsford
"You didn’t book that trip to Seychelles this year. But if it helps you can catch the seaside vibes at Big Ketch Saltwater Grill. The Buckhead seafood restaurant is offering a special elevated menu with poached lobster tail, scallops, and lobster bisque risotto. Themed drinks like a peppermint martini and cinnamon-spiced cocktail also jazz up the menu. The restaurant also opens at noon on New Year’s Day." - juli horsford, jacinta howard
"When we’re longing for carefree vacation vibes, we turn to this casual seafood joint that seems like it was plucked from the touristy coast of Hilton Head and accidentally placed in Buckhead. Rustic, nautical-themed decor adorns the walls, making the place feel like a spot that beach-going families from a landlocked state would adore. For us, the sizable outdoor patio is the main draw, and we could easily spend a balmy afternoon here sipping frosés and dunking tasty blackened grouper into tartar sauce. And the scallops that cut like butter are enough to warrant a return visit. But the sides could use some work, particularly the cement-like grits that even the server warns you to avoid. Also avoid their $34 lobster roll in a hot dog bun, which was tough and flavorless. photo credit: Cameren Rogers photo credit: Cameren Rogers photo credit: Cameren Rogers Pause Unmute" - Juli Horsford
"This Buckhead seafood restaurant and bar offers weekly food and drink specials on its menu, including on lobster rolls and parties on the patio. There’s an entire menu dedicated to happy hour here with oyster deals and a rotating selection of boat drinks." - Beth McKibben
