Always delicious. Oyster happy hour is a must. Follow that up with gumbo or cioppino when you’re done with the oysters..

The Optimist is our go-to date night restaurant. We love seafood and oysters so it is a no brainer. It’s casual but classy. We are regulars. Absolutely love it.
A variety of oysters available. The shrimp cocktail was artfully. — with Rose Washington.
My first time eating at The Optimist! The She Crab Soup is a delicious appetizer and the shrimp toast that comes with it is absolutely amazing!! The bread served while waiting on entrees is to die for!! Everything very tasty and well prepared!! The courtesy wine in the lobby while we waited on our table was a pleasant surprise . Ambiance is perfect for date night
Great restaurant, will be back on my next trip to Atlanta
