We had a dozen wild gulf fresh oysters and a couple cocktails. The oysters were huge and delicious, and the cocktails were strong! The servers were welcoming and we had a great time, really enjoyed this place!

We just ate here tonight, and everything was absolutely amazing. Our server, Laura, did an excellent job, and was very knowledgeable about the menu items. I had the lobster roll and the lobster was fresh and delicious. You MUST try the seafood nachos on the menu as well. We will definitely be back!

We had the most wonderful experience tonight while dining in. We started with a little bit of a wait, about an hour, but with the views and areas to walk around, it was no problem for 5 adults and 5 kids. The food was beyond amazing! The service was spot on and Sam was absolutely killer with dealing with all of the kids, four of which are 5 and under! It was clear she really cared. Holy smokes was the food good!!! Between the fish tacos, the grits, and the blackened tuna I had for an appetizer, I haven’t ate so good in my life!! I can’t wait to come back!! These guys are really GREAT!

This is by far the ONLY real gumbo I have ever had outside Louisiana! This is the REAL deal. If you are from Lousisiana and have high expectations for a gumbo this will not disappoint I promise!

Very mixed review on Atlas Oyster House. Service was great, view is great but food was very mediocre. The fresh oysters, combination of East Coast and West Coast were good but if you are calling yourself an oyster house then you should have more than one selection of each. Clams and bucatini was terrible, the clams were cooked perfectly but the pasta and sauce were so salty it was inedible. Red snapper entree was a little fishy and soggy skin on was not appealing. Dessert was bread pudding but not really, a few slices of soggy pound cake with a caramel sauce from a bottle squirted on, a few berries and chopped nuts sprinkled on top and a scoop of ice cream on the side. Very disappointing meal.

After a Google search for "great place for a lunch date in Pensacola", we landed here to celebrate my husband's birthday the day before Valentines day. It's a bit more upscale which we were looking for & the food was fantastic! We started with a half dozen cheddar jalepeno oysters. Hubby got the steak & wedge salad, and I got the Jack Daniel's grilled chicken salad. All of it was amazing & we're already planning another trip soon!
We went for restaurant week and had a great experience. The inside of the restaurant is gorgeous and very nautical, while the outdoor seating makes you feel like you're on summer vacation and is more casual. The food was delicious, especially the fries, and I plan to come back to try the regular menu items. I was also pleasantly surprised by the cocktails. They were fairly priced and tasted perfect - not too sweet or pre-mixed tasting. It was clear they were quite understaffed the Friday we went, which I'm sure had to do with it being the off-season, so just be patient if you plan to be seated during a busy time.

Nice place for a date night wouldn't recommend birthday or even celebration took us over a hour just to get seated and another hour for food place wasn't even that busy food wasn't the best I had the fried green tomatoes and it had great sauce but was blend in taste

We visited Atlas for restaurant week. The food was okay, but did not come out hot. It also only came out one or two plates at a time, leaving our party waiting long periods until everyone received their meals. The dessert was bland, especially the Matcha Mont Blanc Trifle. However, our main complaint was the service. We arrived at 5pm and left after 8pm. While we understood it was more busy than usual due to restaurant week, waiting over three hours for a preset menu was incredibly frustrating. It was an hour of waiting in between courses. During that time we were not offered refills on water, drinks took 30+ minutes to come out, we asked for steak knives that never came, and it took 30+ minutes to process our check. While the servers may be doing their best to keep up, the restaurant failed them by not being adequately staffed on a Saturday during restaurant week.

First time visiting and during their Great Southern Restaurant Winter Dinner. We ordered the Something of Everything baked oysters, Lobster Pimento Mac and Cheese, Truffle Fries, and Duck Tamales for appetizers. Which everything were delicious. I absolutely loved their baked oysters and truffle fries. I'm not big on oysters, especially being pregnant, but they did it so well, and I thoroughly enjoyed them with my husband. For the main entrees, we had the Flat Iron Steak medium rare and the Crab Stuffed Flounder. The steak was okay, but the flounder was amazing! It was a bit fishy tasting for my husband, but it tasted great to me. The combination of the crab and fish was fantastic! For desserts, we had the Cherry O Cream Cheese Ice Cream and the Matcha Blanc Mont Trifle. We definitely enjoyed the ice cream much more than we did of the trifle. By the time desserts came, we were already super stuffed, so we could barely finish the trifle. We killed the ice cream, though. It was simple divine and the perfect kiss to our meal. We were seated at a nice large table even though it was just my husband, our daughter, and myself. So we had plenty of space for all the food and drinks.

Absolutely horrible experience. Came here for date night and the server completely ignored us unless flagged down. The shrimp cocktail was awful. It was watery and no flavor. The flounder special was raw on the bottom. Extremely dissatisfied and disappointed. If you're looking at the pictures on here I'm here to say looks aren't everything.
