Atlanta Fish Market Restaurant   

You know you've arrived at Atlanta Fish Market when, as you're moving along Peachtree Road toward Buckhead, a 30-foot copper fish leaps into view. This seafood emporium offers more than 100 fresh varieties of deep-sea catches flown in fresh (necessitating a menu to be printed twice daily), so fish lovers can't go wrong. Start off with a cocktail on the veranda or head for the Geechee Crab lounge to watch a game with your beverage. The dining room has an art deco-inspired interior, with hardwood floors, ceiling fans and some funky '50s touches. Now to the food: From sushi, oyster and clam appetizers, shrimp potstickers or calamari, move on to mouthwatering specials such as Carolina salmon trout with whipped sweet potatoes and macadamia honey nut butter, or seared Maine sea scallops with crab cake ravioli, asparagus, shiitake mushrooms and tomato butter. In charge of it all is Robert Holley, one of the country's most celebrated young chefs. -- Edna McCown
