"C&S Oyster Bar has been a go-to restaurant, especially for in-town guests. The seafood is always fantastic and super fresh, the service is second to none, and the overall vibe is really cool. Until this visit which was loud, riddled with flying with bugs, marginal food, and hot. I want to give the restaurant grace that perhaps something was off, and they still hold themselves to the high standards that I've known them for. But I had to write this review because I was extremely disappointed. If I had not had great experiences in the past, I would not go back again. The service was the only positive experience. Changing my reservation to a later time and larger party went seamlessly. Pierce was fantastic as our server. Everything else was terrible. The bar was INCREDIBLY loud. It was hard for our server to hear us place our orders. We could not hear one another to have a conversation at the table because of the boisterous laughter and shouting from the bar. There were big bugs (like giant gnats) flying around our table the entire night. If we were outside, it would still have been a nuisance but understandable. Speaking of outside, it was cooler outside (after the rain storm) than it was in the restaurant! The heat in Atlanta in July has been overbearing- I am not sure if the thermostat was set extra high to conserve energy, or if the AC wasn't working. The food was marginal at best. I've come to expect a great meal here. The salads had wilted lettuce. The steak was fine, but not flavorful. The seafood wasn't fresh, or prepared poorly. The fried shrimp, was undercooked under the salty and heavy batter- almost like outside browned too fast. The noise, bugs and heat made this a bad experience. The food was underwhelming, but not awful. THE SERVICE WAS GREAT."
