What a great experience!Let me start by saying: I'm a seafood boil snob. I grew up near the water with a mother who lives and breathes seafood, making it a staple in my life since childhood. So if I know anything, it's seafood. So when my girlfriends suggested that we head to The Pirate's Boil for lunch while in the area, I ran to the Yelp reviews to confirm that we were on the right track. There are a number of seafood spots in ATL and honestly, very few have left their mark on me, and I hate to waste time/money on a bad food experience lol. Especially seafood! So when I saw all of the great reviews from my fellow Elites and Yelpers, I felt like we were really in a for a treat.We visited on a Saturday afternoon after a morning of spending time out in the city. The restaurant is located in a large plaza which means tons of parking. Upon entry, the nautical theme was quite evident from top to bottom with branding all over. We were promptly greeted by a nice young lady who gave us a choice of table seating or booth seating. I was surprised that the restaurant wasn't packed yet, but there were a few other parties inside diving into their food and enjoying themselves. We were seated and welcomed by our waitress, Jasmine, who quickly took our orders. Looking at the menu, the prices were actually pretty reasonable compared to others that I've seen. Between the four of us, we all seemed to get a variety of options with me going with 1/2 lb. of green mussels and 1/2 lb. of Dungeness crabs in hot + Pirate's boil special sauce. My only gripe about seafood boils these days is that eggs/sausages are usually extra and the corn and potatoes are limited. Like, why is that? I need to start a petition and need this on the upcoming voting ballot because, aht aht. (But luckily one of my friends didn't want her eggs so I won. :D) I asked Jasmine which spice level was her favorite, to which she answered, "Inferno". My sister in christ, absolutely not lol. I like spice so much, but I didn't want to regret my choices later lol. When we received our food, the "hot" could have used an extra kick, but with more mixing and dipping directly into the bottom of the bag, it all worked out without extra spice. My boil was delicious!!! 1/2 lb. of mussels equaled about 6 pieces and my crab was big cluster with about 5 legs - not too bad. The sauce was flavorful, garlicky, buttery, really good. My only complaint was that there held back on the amount of sauce. Having double that amount would be ideal next time. My only complaint about this visit? The bathrooms. 1 stall was closed and the others, along with the sinks, looked as though they needed a deep clean. There were tissues all over the floors and I feel like that could be avoided if someone was checking the bathrooms every few hours and cleaning them up. At a restaurant where the cuisine is a messy experience, bathrooms are important and that part of the experience wasn't ideal at all.Truly one of the top 2 seafood boil experiences that I've had in ATL so far, so grateful for my fellow Yelpers sharing their feedback and the Pirate's Boil team for dishing up some great food!

After a day of officiating lacrosse, I was famished and excited to find a Cajun seafood joint. The Pirate's Boil employs a friendly staff that are eager to help you on your adventure. The restaurant has a good vibe and includes a large dining area and a spacious bar with TVs so you can enjoy the game. I partook of the fried oyster basket, which came with 10 oysters and a pile of Cajun fries. The oysters were breaded and fried perfectly. They were juicy and tasted of the sea. The fries were hot and crispy and the Cajun seasoning gave them just the right kick. If you're looking for seafood that's a little bit different, swing by and hang with the Pirate.

Good food and drinks, depending on your bartender.... from what I'm told.... lol.I like the fact that there's tvs around to watch something while I'm eating. The atmosphere is calm and exciting because there are usually small gatherings, whether it's for birthdays or anniversaries. I will say that I love their fried catfish and their fried shrimp.

I was craving seafood boil and a friend of mine suggested this place. It's in a strip mall however there's plenty of free parking there. There was no wait and it mimics the style of the various other seafood boil spots like Juicy Crab and Rockin Crab restaurants. Our server was attentive and despite the fact she did not carry a notepad was able to remember me and my party of 5 orders. She refilled our drinks and gave us the silverware and bucket for our crab boils. The food was outstanding and the calamari was great not too chewy either. Ambiance displayed wooden laminate tables and open space to accommodate large parties. This spot is a hidden gem in Smyrna. Can't wait to go back whenever I'm in the mood for some bomb seafood crab boils.

Pirates boil is the only boil spot that I go to Georgia. Why? They're consistent, from the food, to the wait time, and service.They're located in a shopping center, which means plenty of parking spaces available. If it's busy on a weekend you can do a simple reservation. They have an affordable lunch special ranging from baskets to boil bags. The music is pretty up to date, the servers are patient, available, and calm. Must try: Fried Shrimp Basket (as pictured) w/Cajun Fries with a side of the bombom sauce. Hush puppies and of course a boil bag medium spice level Pirates Secret sauce. Note: The Mild sauce is not spicy to me, its flavor with no kick is the best way to describe it.

This was my first time eating here and it lived up to the hype! This place is located in a plaza with lots of parking. It is very spacious inside. Our server was really nice and good at her job. She kept our cups full and even gave us Togo cups to take with us. I enjoyed the Treasure Chest which consisted of 1 snow crab cluster, shrimp, sausages, 2 corns, and 2 eggs. My boyfriend enjoyed a po boy sandwich. I was unable to finish my seafood boil so I took it home and enjoyed my left overs the next day. I'll definitely be back.

First time going to this place. I read all of the reviews and it didn't disappoint. Highly recommend this place I got the catfish my sister got the treasure chest. We also order calamari regular version. Everything was awesome the dish was not greasy great season crunch. The calamari was just as good. The environment was nice clean the restaurant is a good size to accommodate guests eating in. The decor was a themed pirate vibe. I will be back for sure. Service was prompt our server was very attentive. Check them out. They have a garlic butter sauce that is to die for.

Wonderful seafood boil spot in the Atlanta Georgia area.This review is being written a little later than when we ate here. But if I can recall, there was tons of good food and lovely vibes and staff as well. I believe we went with the combo that included crab legs, crawfish, shrimp, potatoes and corn. The mix within the bag was I think there everything sauce at a medium heat.Long story short. An unbelievably delicious experience. I will say the meal was a bit salty so I should've drank more water to counter act the increased BP I experience afterwards lol but that's on me.Order all the good yummy items but just make sure to stay hydrated as boils just naturally have lots of spices and tend to be a little salty.Would definitely come back again

Lunch carry outI like the Pirate's Boil, I dropped in for lunch this past Wednesday and ordered a to go shrimp boil with heads off, it came with shrimp, potato and corn and I added an egg to the mix. The pirate's butter sauce was amazing. The service was great, and I really like ambiance of the place, it was clean and cozy. They do offer a full bar here and a pretty decent menu. The prices are in line with other seafood resturants in the area. Parking is plentiful as it is a shared lot with other businesses. I will definitely have to check out their dinner menu soon.
