Food & Drink, Community,
Lobster is tasty, luxurious seafood that pairs well with pasta, salads, sandwiches, and simply butter. It’s a seasonal crustacean most prevalent in Maine’s chilly waters between June and December, making it challenging to find the freshest quality lobster on off-seasons. We’ve done the hard work for you and rounded up Atlanta’s top seafood restaurants with the best, biggest selection of lobster dishes on their menus. Check out our picks for the Atlanta restaurants you must visit if you love eating lobster.
