Really great atmosphere, views of downtown Atlanta are amazing, service was exemplary and food was exquisite. I do wish the portions were a little bigger as some entrees seemed small given the price. But overall, we enjoyed spending our time here for our anniversary.

I apologize for not remembering the name of our server. Hopefully you can look this up under our reservation. But that gentleman, overheard me discussing my birthday and the birthday of my daughter. He brought us free dessert, wished me a happy birthday, knowing my daughter was not at the dinner with us, and wish both of us a wonderful birthday and a happy life. He was wonderful.

We dine at Rays in the city anytime we’re in town for a convention. The food and service are always wonderful. Their seafood is the best, IMO. Calamari is to die for and although they charge for the bread basket now, you must have it. So good!
