About this restaurant

Charming
Good for special occasions
Neighborhood gem

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.

Food was pretty good. Same with the cocktail, even though there was one we didn't like, no problem switching it to something else. Great place overall.

The food was really good especially the truffle fries with caviar. My lobster was a little overcooked and the broccolini was good. Our server Michelle was amazing very knowledgeable and provided great service.

Beautiful restaurant with a nice brunch menu that has a wide range of options and flavor. Cocktails were mixed very well and nice ratio. French toast is delicious... Sunburst spritz was also very tasty. Our server, Mathias, was prompt, knowledgeable and checked in with us at appropriate intervals. We were a loud bunch with lots of questions, he was very kind and patient throughout.
