Carmel is a love letter to the coast—the ocean breeze, the freedom, the elements that make you feel so good when you’re next to the water. We serve Contemporary Seafood and embrace a gastronomic narrative centered around the celebration of premium seafood and seasonal produce. From the cozy yet elegant interior to the seasonal menu and craft cocktails, every detail reflects our passion for the oceanside experience.

Our menu showcases high-quality, sustainable seafood skillfully paired with fresh, local ingredients. Whether it's sophisticated crudos, wood-fired oysters, fish, lobster, dry-aged steak, or vibrant cocktails, we would love to take you on a journey to your favorite waterfront destination. Let the ocean breeze carry you away...

Weekday Lunch is served at Carmel’s Bar. We do not accept reservations for lunch, though walk-ins are always welcome at any time of day. Gratuity is applied to parties of 6+. Parties of 9+, please submit an inquiry at CarmelATL.com>Reservations.

Great experience. First time out. Cool. Calm. Comfortable. Arrived early and it was quiet as evening progressed the atmosphere became vibrant and conversationally loud. Great Service. Wonderfully seasoned tastes and presentations. Great place to meet and catch up with friends and share plates.

The ambience was great. Food was wonderful, really loved the Scallops, Seafood Tower, Caviar Fries, and Okra. The noise level was high which is difficult but seems to be everywhere in Atlanta.

Food was horrible. It was cold. It was chalky. I explained this to the waiter. He still brought us a bill with the food on there. We had to tell them we were not paying for that food. He still charged us for our salads and I did buy a bottle of wine And all he was worried about was his tip. I will never go back. It was horrible.
