A very nice, upscale restaurant with a sophisticated -and pricy- menu. Located in an attractive re-purposed home like building, Antebellum is a great place for a date, or a meal with another couple. Because of its location, be aware of alternative routes lest you get blocked by a unloading train. The place will probably get another star on our next trip as we will be more aware of the menu. First off, most dishes are a la carte. We found the appetizers wanting and wish we d had salads instead. For a party of three we had the scallops, flat iron steak and a vegetarian entree. Each was good, but not great. The restaurant is suitable for a party up to six, but after that it can be a little stressed. Good wine list and innovative full bar with bar deserts. Very good coffee, but it shouldn t be the high point.
We ll be back but with be knowledge of what we want. With tip, $190 for three adults.
