Best Seafood (and other stuff) In the Area!. Pier 213 is easily my favorite seafood restaurant in the area and one of my favorite restaurants, period. My wife first found the place about a year ago when she read an article about how Pier 213's owners also own a seafood distribution business so we figured they'd have to know a thing or two about fish.

We've never been real happy with the seafood options near our home in Kennesaw and were eager to give a new one a try. We're so glad we did.

The seafood and land-based options we've tried have all been excellent. I usually order the Seafood Pasta, but tonight I got the waitress-recommended Lamb Shank (something I'd never think to do at other seafood places). It was amazing, but we've never had a bad dish at Pier 213, so while I enjoyed it immensely, I wasn't surprised by how good it was.

The prices are reasonable and both the regular menu items and specials are always wonderful. I especially love the Salmon (prepared lots of delicious ways) and the jambalaya, while my wife and son love the fried shrimp and chicken strips respectively. Another great thing about Pier 213 is that there's almost never a wait, probably because they haven't been discovered yet. Or maybe because the place doesn't look like a great restaurant from the outside\.

If the parking lot looks crowded it might just be because people park there sometimes to go to the just-like-every-other-Mexican-place next door. Their loss!

If you want great, authentic southern seafood and other delicious selections without high prices or the hassle of driving downtown, you owe it to yourself to give Pier 213 a try!
