Nice view of the river and garden was an added touch to our great meal at Ray's. Although a little expensive , it is well worth it. Would highly recommend and plan on dining there again in the future.

The seafood is fantastic at Ray's, as is the service. The jumbo lump crab cake is so big you can get 2 meals out of it. It's our pick for Favorite Atlanta Meals! Read more

Brunch is delicious. French toast , bacon and Bloody Mary are soooo good. So serene if you get a window seat with a view of chatahoochee river .

New Orleans BBQ shrimps are OUTSTANDING! No questions asked! We couldn’t even guess the flavor combinations in that heavenly sauce! A closed eyes appetizer selection! ???? ????

Chris Revelle

Ignore the age and Miami steakhouse decor in here and enjoy some good drinks and food. Happy hour has solid deals. And you can only get the worlds best tater tots at the bar .

Morgan Greenwald

Great for a date or nice family dinner . Beautiful view of the Chattahoochee ! Love the horseradish grouper , sides of brussel sprouts and mushrooms , and the raisin bread to start!

Great place for an evening out with your significant other. Grown folks spot. Live music , business casual dress code. Service is good.

Sunday Brunch is the best & sanitary! From the shrimp & stone crab station, the omelet & carving station, red velvet waffles , squash casserole , mac n cheese , all b'fast foods, fruit salads & desserts .

I recommend the cold seafood tower . It has some if the best oysters I have ever eaten one "Blue Point " from New York and one "Marin Bay " from California. Service was great as well .

The buffet dinner is wonderful and the service is great.. We went there for Thanksgiving dinner and we sat under the tent. My family had a great time.

Ray's has been a favorite of ours for years. Food was excellent as usual. DO NOT MISS the bar with the entertainment. Enjoy the food but don't miss the music !

Best service i've ever had. Food&drinks flowed right along like the river . Lovely view . Food, above par but $150 for 2 for dinner is ridiculous.

Hard to believe it is always busy But only complaints get posted on pages. Just go to McDonald's. it will give those that value excellent food and service more room.

Lounge menu and drinks for happy hour are a real bargain, especially when live music is featured.

Heard many good things about Ray's, unfortunately we were not impressed. We were sat at 8:27 for our 7:45 reservations . Our river view was a giant bush, food was just ok, but our server Boe was great.
