"This multilevel Midtown institution is a great option for a supremely casual seafood dinner. Part of their charm is the flea market-esque decor with signs like “Southern cookin’ makes you good lookin." The folksy neighborhood pub appeal could clash with a fancy-looking blue tray of raw oysters, in theory. But it feels totally natural to throw back a dozen, wash it down with their sweet Goombay Smash cocktail, and eavesdrop on the regulars discussing their undying love for Steamhouse's creamy, chunky lobster bisque—one of our favorites in the city." - juli horsford
"Every inch of available wall space at this multilevel Midtown seafood institution has bits and baubles you’d find at a flea market (old license plates, random black and white photos, large fish statues etc.). The pub charm makes cracking a pile of crab legs all the more appealing. Delicious fried seafood baskets, an unmissable lobster bisque, and low-salinity oysters are their seafood triple threat. But what really keeps us coming back is the massive patio and small-town atmosphere we seldom find in the busy city center. Regulars who’ve been coming here for decades swap stories with their favorite bartenders, while first-timers join the club with a sip of a fruity Goombay Smash." - nina reeder, juli horsford
"Oysters are the main attraction on the menu at Steamhouse Lounge, but don’t skip the lobster roll served on a poppy seed bun. The best seats in the house are found on the second-story patio in front the restaurant flanking West Peachtree Street." - Eater Staff
"Festival offering raw, roasted, and stewed oysters, oyster sliders, gumbo, bloody Maria shooters with mezcal, and unlimited beer, wine, and cocktails." - Henna Bakshi
