Must-Visit Raw Bar in Marietta

A Raw Bar serves the freshest raw seafood, shucked and sliced to order. While oysters take center stage, the offerings often extend well beyond the half-shell. At Mac’s Raw Bar, we provide diverse offerings, curated by our expert chefs. Whether you're a seafood connoisseur or just looking for a “raw bar near me”, our restaurant is the destination for culinary exploration. Join us for an unforgettable dining experience that celebrates the beauty and richness of the ocean.



Seacuterie Board

The Seacuterie board is our take on a classic charcuterie board, featuring an assortment of tinned, pickled, smoked, and chilled seafood. This sampling of our chef-curated local raw bar menu selections offers a tempting spread of seafood flavors and textures to enjoy. 


You'll savor items like pickled shrimp and lobster, marinated mussels, Spanish tinned seafood selections, smoked salmon, smoked trout and andouille, olives, capers, and Marcona almonds. We also include fresh crudités for dipping and scooping. Our Seacuterie board allows you to sample several seafood specialties on one beautiful plate. 



Crudo Plates 

In addition to our Seacuterie board, you can explore the flavors of our fresh crudo plates. Crudo, which translates to "raw" in Italian, encompasses an array of raw seafood dishes, expertly sliced thin and served chilled to preserve their delicate taste and texture. 


We offer two exquisite crudo dishes. The first features slices of vibrant yellowfin tuna, perfectly paired with rich avocado, a touch of sweet chili crunch, and a sprinkle of sea salt. The second dish showcases sweet sea scallop crudo, served with bright orange segments, peppery arugula, and toasted pumpkin seeds. Our crudo highlights the pure essence of ultra-fresh seafood, enhanced by various flavors and textures.



Oysters on the Half-Shell 

One of the best parts of a raw bar experience is the ice-cold oysters served on crushed ice. We source a variety of top-quality oysters from both coasts. East Coast selections include oysters from renowned growing regions like BeauSoleil, Canada; Cheebooktook, Canada; Malpeque, Canada; Savage Blonde, Canada; Blue Point, New York; Katama Bay, Massachusetts; and Wellfleet, Massachusetts.


We also serve Gulf Coast favorites like Indian River, Florida, and Murder Point, Alabama. West Coast offerings include Hog Island, California, and Kumamoto, Washington - widely considered to be some of the best-tasting oysters available.



Chilled Shellfish & Crab 

Mac’s Raw Bar also offers chilled Alaskan King Crab legs by the half-pound and three different seafood cocktail options:


  • Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail: For shrimp lovers, these juicy and succulent shrimps are served chilled with a tangy cocktail sauce, providing the perfect balance of flavors.
  • Maine Lobster Cocktail: Satisfy your craving for lobster with the Maine lobster cocktail. Made from fresh, sourced Maine lobsters.
  • Colossal Lump Blue Crab Cocktail: The Colossal lump blue crab cocktail is made with the freshest and largest blue crabs, this dish is a true delicacy that will leave you wanting more.


In addition to these fresh seafood offerings, Mac’s Raw Bar also has a variety of tantalizing sides to complement your meal. From french beans to creamy whipped mashed potatoes and house fries, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
