Where do you start. I had family in town for my birthday and made a reservation for 5. 2 ordered the braised beef gnocchi, 2 order the salmon and 1 ordered the Tenderloin. Everyone was sharing their food and left with empty plates. they were all delicious. This place is a must try.

By design, a menu with limited offerings but each item, whether classic fare or chef’s originals are expertly crafted of quality ingredients & beautifully plated. Service prompt, exceedingly pleasant & professional. We found that The Logan Turnpike grits in the shrimp & grits was, to our taste, slightly al dente, but the dish was delicious, nevertheless. Chef’s take on the night’s special: Beef Wellington, was sublime. Inquire as to the prices on the specials. We did not & experienced richter scale worthy ‘sticker shock’ when reviewing our check. Bring a jacket or sweater as the a/c in the place works really well.

Great food, service and a beautiful night on the porch made for a memorable evening! The scallops are the best I’ve ever had. The baked Brie appetizer is wonderful. Well worth the 35 minute drive to visit this restaurant in Flowery Branch .

We’ve been long standing customers but tonight I had a new dish, the scallop risotto. I’m not a fan of scallops usually however I was recommended to try this. It did not disappoint. It was phenomenal!

I have been a patron of Antebellum since the first month of their opening. Long enough to see Nick and Alison welcome two children into the Antebellum family. There is no pleasure in giving only a three-star rating but, had it not been for Steven's excellent service, the rating would have been two stars. NOISE LEVEL: The noise level was almost at the threshold of pain. Two tables accounted for most of the noise but, the table with six very loud women was the worst contributor. I and my three guests were hardly able to hear one another across the table. I know that the restaurant cannot control the rudeness of their customers but, the fact that there are so many hard surfaces -- walls, flooring, etc. -- only amplifies the noise. Perhaps consider some rugs and wall tapestries to lessen the reflected noise. Or... ask loud, obnoxious people to "hold it down" or leave. You cannot control the culture, but you can control your restaurant. A thought -- when you have a large party you might consider locating them to the other side of the restaurant -- I know you have set tables in the bar area during the holiday season. Perhaps these people would have been better situated there. FOOD: My guests enjoyed their meals -- appetizers, Caesar salads, two salmon, and the scallops. My order -- the grilled tenderloin -- was disappointing. The addition of carrots topping the tenderloin was not pleasing. The menu does not mention this addition (or I didn't see it) but this combination with beef was not pleasant. Next time I will request that the carrots -- if that's the way it's prepared -- be left off. BOTTOM LINE: The food, for the most part, was, as usual, excellent except for my tenderloin. Your prices have crept up however no one can control the costs of ingredients. The ambience was the worst I have experienced anywhere in a long time due to the aforementioned noise level. I will think twice before coming back especially on the weekend.

Eddie, I apologize that your experience wasn’t up to standard. Unfortunately, on busy nights it does get quite loud. We have invested in sound panels on the ceiling, though we are always looking to reduce the volume in the best way we can. On the steak, It’s actually not carrots, it is a romesco sauce. I apologize it wasn’t your favorite. Romesco is a roasted red pepper and tomato based sauce w/nuts. If something is not to your liking, we are always happy to get you another dish, though if we don't know, we can't fix it. We appreciate your comments, however we wish you had shared these thoughts with us in person as we are generally in house every evening. We are always receptive to constructive criticism. Thank you for dining with us, and would love to see you in the near future. Best Nick

We ordered to start with Brie wrapped in puff pastry with amazing sauces & candied walnuts & raisins…Amazing flavor combinations. Had the salmon and shrimp dishes. Shrimp dish was very rich but extremely tasty. Topped it off with a hot skillet cc cookie with caramel & ice cream. Always such a wonderful treat to have this quality of food in our area!

Stephen was phenomenal. Went above and beyond to make our anniversary dinner so special. He even thoughtfully accommodated my expectant wife with a ginger ale toast with my champagne. The shrimp and grits were great. The tenderloin is always fantastic. If you’re looking for a perfect dessert, the sticky toffee cake fits the bill! Live music also established the best ambiance. Looking forward to coming again!

Every plate that came to the table was special. The flavors, taste, presentation, all appears to have been thought through. Elements that you thought would be heavy, were perfectly balanced. Tender was tender and fresh was fresh - nothing to disappoint. A special occasion place for certain, the food was wow

We are locals to this restaurant. The food is great -- however, as a local and being one of the only nice restaurants close to us, it would be great if they varied their menu more often. Limited menu and just don't want to order the same thing over and over again. When we inquired about the menu, the response was -- well we have another restaurant now and the chef is focusing on that restaurant. Not what anyone would like to hear. We will keep checking back to see if and when the menu does have something different to offer. Always busy and it is a lovely place to enjoy -- a little variety would be so appreciated.

Should’ve left when I saw mason jars instead of nice glassware. Service was good but rushed it was obvious that they all wanted to go home. Worst part was the food. Fried green tomatoes (2 sliced) with some bread and an egg on top. Scallops with sand still in them. And the worst, shrimp and grits with no sausages or tomatoes, cold lumpy grits. I read somewhere that this restaurant was considered one of the best 100 in the nation…I don’t think is top 100 even in Atlanta. Spend your dollars somewhere else.
