First, I am from Louisiana, grew up on Cajun and Creole food, and cook it regularly for my family from recopies handed down for several generations.I have tried many "Louisiana" style restaurants in the Atlanta area and this one is the best thus far. It's not perfect, but very good.There were four of us and we all tried different dishes. First was the Bistreux Oysters. They were very good and reminded me of the ones served at Don's Seafood (LA since 1934). Next we tried the Gator Bites. These were good, but a bit too much batter. The underlying flavor was very good but the heavy batter was a bit overbearing. The fried okra was very tasty and hot.The crabmeat and corn chowder was very good as well. My only complaint is that they served oyster crackers with it (a northern thing) as opposed to saltine crackers (more of a southern thing). Also, if you are going to be a Louisiana-style restaurant you need to have Crystal and/or Tabasco hot sauce. It's nice to have your own brand, but it was nothing close to the authentic Louisiana Hot Sauces made in New Orleans and New Iberia respectively. Without a doubt the Eggplant Atachafalya was the star of the night. Quite frankly, it was amazing. I highly recommend it. Lightly crispy on the outside and filled with shrimp, crawfish and crabmeat, it just melted in my mouth. Likewise the Redfish Pontchartrain was amazing. The Maque Choux and Dirty Rice were spot on. The fish itself was prepared correctly and the shrimp and crab topping was an excellent touch that added a wealth of flavor.The Grilled Shrimp were spicy, but not overly so and cooked just right - flavorful, but not overbearing. One word of advice to the owner/manager - you need to teach your wait staff how to pronounce words like "Atchafalya", "Pontchartrain and "Etouffee" correctly. These are signature Louisiana words and your staff needs to know how to pronounce them correctly.I highly recommend Louisiana Bistreaux. It's worth the drive if you are not in the Decatur area and for locals, it's quite the gem. I am looking forward to my next visit to try other dishes.Thanks, We appreciate you taking the time to review your experience

3. Southern Seafood
Reviewed By 249meiac
I'm from the Pacific Northwest and spoiled. Crabs from PNW have harder shells and more meat. So, moving here I've searched high and low for some decent crabs. My dining experiences have been not so pleasant with the small, soft shell Dungeness crabs.But then a gentle told me to drive out to Decatur and try this place called "Southern Seafood." He said it would be a drive. But worth it. He didn't lie. It's not an eat in situation. Although you will see people eating at those dirty tables. But the selection of crab, shrimp and crawfish is perfect. They make them spices and steamed. Perfectly the way I like them.Will return for my seafood cravings...

I recently enjoyed a nice crab leg dinner at this Red Lobster. I was impressed by the attention to detail and friendly staff. The food was cooked as I had requested. The Cole Slaw was very fresh. They offer REAL Baked Potato that are oven baked Excellent service for entire meal
5. Conch City Seafood

Small building on a busy highway. It's hard to pull into the parking lot. Not much of an atmosphere. But the food is wonderful!
