It was a gorgeous day, made better from the moment we walked into the door! Ann Marie introduced herself, was very welcoming, and offered inside or outside dining. Being as it was sunny and warm, we chose outside. I love the rooftop, it's just perfect on days like this! She then asked our preference of "sun or shade" and gave us our choice of table. Laurie was our server. She was amazing!! I already knew what I was ordering, my colleague asked for suggestions, and she not only offered them, she also provided the variations of which it could be prepared. She knows that menu like she wrote it herself, an absolute pro! Our food came out in good time, perfectly prepared as we requested. Again, Laurie was very attentive throughout our time there, refillings of drinks and water, right on time, and with a very happy disposition, engaging in small conversations, yet, giving us the time we needed for our meeting. Everything about this experience was exceptional, and very clean, including the tour I gave through cross street market afterwards. Oh, and I added more points towards more Atlas Rewards, which is always a perk! (Get the app, you won't regret it!) Thank you for another consistently STELLAR Altas experience, which keeps me coming back again, and again!

We came here for a quick bite to eat before seeing a comedy show. We were immediately taken to our seats. We had a little wait for the waiter to come but once he did everything went smooth. Plenty of food options and drink options. Food came really fast. The atmosphere of the restaurant was lively with tvs showing sports by the bar and there was live music as well. It did get a little too loud to the point you couldn't hear the person in front of you at some points. Overall id recommend thos restaurant.

I wouldn’t recommend it unless every other place around is packed. We were taken to our table and waited for our server. After 15 minutes of no server, I went to the host stand asking if our server knew we had been seated. 2 minutes after going up to the host stand, our server took our drink order. This particular server had walked by our table 3 times within the 15 minutes of us waiting and never once bothered to stop at our table. Mind you, the restaurant at this time wasn’t packed or busy yet. We ordered alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks for the table. The bar was a little busy, so there was a slight wait, but nothing horrible. I will say the bartenders knew how to make their drinks. We enjoyed them. Orange crush 8/10 | Pineapple Crush 9/10 | Dirty Martini extra Dirty 9/10 Food was okay but nothing to rave about. We had the oysters, mussels, Stuffed Maine Lobster, Seafood Diavolo, Smash Burger, and Fish Tacos. We ordered a variety of food to truly give it a try and see how it tasted. Oysters and mussels came out good 8/10. Stuffed Maine Lobster 6/10. Broccoli could have been cooked longer. Potatoes were fine, not too seasoned, and the lobster didn’t come with any utensils to help crack open the shell. We had to request utensils, and our server gave us a broken mallet, stating that’s all they had in the entire restaurant. Seafood Diavolo 7/10. The linguine could have been cooked an extra minute to be al dente. The shrimp were overcooked, the scallops were rubber, and if there was crab, you couldn’t tell.. Smash Burger was easy and simple nothing to mess up 9/10 Fish tacos 7/10 didn’t taste super fresh When it came to the check, we ended up waiting forever for our server to cash us out. At this point, it was busier, but we knew the service had already been bad and the food not impressing us, we couldn’t wait to leave.

I really enjoyed myself. The oysters were fresh and they had a large variety of different ones to try along with that. They had all types of toppings, including the housemaid Minette sauce that I was really a fan of Justin was my server. He was great very tentative, cleaned up all the mess from the shelves and the crabs that I had and I also had a steak that was cooked perfectly medium well, I ordered some au gratin potatoes. They were a bit undercooked, but they were still good once they were reheated I ordered six jumbo crabs. The seasoning was good on them and crack with juicy easy to pick and tasty only wanted the crabs came out mushy which they immediately replaced with a fresh crab. The beer was good and the shots of tequila was also good overall I had a good experience and I would definitely recommend and I will be coming back soon

I have never been more happy to try to grab reservations too late, for Valentine’s Day, in my life. I’m from Philly and we were coming in for a couple hours because we were going to go to a show at a local theater. Tried getting dinner reservations at all of the normal spots at the harbor with no success. So went on open table and found the Watershed, checked out the menu and reviews and decided to book a reservation. We got a great parking spot right in the alleyway next to the restaurant. The nightlife on the street was awesome. Lots of people out having a good time…going to different restaurants. Walked in to the Watershed and was welcomed by a warm smile from the hostess and a conversation with the manager because I was concerned that I parked next to a broken parking meter and didn’t want to get a ticket. As I said, I’m from Philly. The atmosphere was lively with people sitting at the bar and tables chitchatting. Volume of the music was just right, which added to the ambience. It wasn’t overcrowded, there was more than enough space to move around. We were seated right away on the first floor never got a chance to go upstairs. Waiter came, gave us our menus which included a special Valentine’s Day menu. You have to use a QR code to get the drink menu. I wanted to order everything, but we narrowed it down to roasted garlic mussels for each, some tasty drinks: Honeypot and the Nor’easter, and the couples surf and turf from the special menu, which included a big piece of steak and two lump meat, crabcakes, fries, coleslaw, and two sauces. The food was so good. The mussels came with this wonderful crunchy sliced French bread with look like blue cheese butter maybe some parsley on top. Perfect for dipping in the mussel’s juice. Very flavorful. The only thing that I didn’t like was that they brought our meal out while we were still eating the mussels but I wasn’t trippin’. The whole experience was a vibe. The restrooms were very clean and spacious.
