Go for the Soups. Fontaines is an oyster bar in the popular Virginia-Highlands area. They have different food specials most nights of the week.We were there on the night that half price snow crab is offered. We had the snow crab which was fine and seemed very fresh.The cocktails were good, but not remarkable enough to get the recipe.The highlights were the soups. The lobster bisque and the oyster stew were both wonderful and great on a cold day.
Not what I expected. We viewed the menu online and had decided on what to get, But when we get there, some of the items were not on there. Then when you order a seafood basket, it does’nt come with fries. For $14 for 3 shrimps and 4 oysters without a side is not good. I rather take my money to Bay Breeze when you can get a big platter of food and sides for the same price.
Not Kid Friendly. The restuarant is an OK restuarant but it is not kid friendly. The seafood just taste ordinary.
Lousy : weak service, very small half shell oysters.fried seafood taste frozen. Food very pricey, very small portions.
Pros: UNBELIEVABLE CRAB LE…. Pros: UNBELIEVABLE CRAB LEGS! Not usually an oyster fan but they are great here too. Service is good.Cons:drinks are hit or miss (as it relates to potency) and the tables are too small for the copious amount of crab legs I like to enjoy here. The wait for setting can be tough too
Solid Seafood & Great Atmosphere. This place was once again satisfying. The seafood was fresh and tasty, the happy hour prices were great (50% off Snow Crab Legs & Raw Oysters) and the atmosphere was alive and well. Always a solid spot around the Emory neighborhood
Greatly good food! Server was awesome but the bartender is horrible!!! Went we got here it took the bartender 10mins to poor 1 beer! Our appetizer came out before we even got the beer. Asked to get the braves game on which happened but then it got switched to soccer. Asked to get the other tv turned back on to the game which was no problem untill that tv too got switched to soccer. Asked to have it turned back and that never happened.
