Our experience as always, was extraordinary! Catherine was a delight. She explained the faves on the menu, and introduced the new items. She even brought my husband the creamed spinach to taste, as he is pretty particular about his creamed spinach. He did give it a thumbs up. The bisque was out of this world, my husband has it EVERY time, and the mussels best in the city, by far. We stopped in late, so didn’t have much more to eat, but, everything has always been excellent. It comes out promptly and always hot. We love this place.

Best mussels in town. I do not say this lightly. We order mussels at just about very place we go and these are the best tasting. Service was great, The owners and chef were paying attention to the guests and were very personable. This was our second visit and it is now on our dining rotation as a go to for seafood.

The food and service were outstanding! It’s a little tricky to find if you’ve never been to this part of Dunwoody Village and using gps to guide you. I’d recommend calling the restaurant ahead of time and getting directions (it’s inside a court yard). Highly recommend Message in a Bottle!!!
