The food, however, was the real star: * Seared Aji Tuna: Incredible.

We stayed a little late and you could tell they wanted us out around closing, but the food was good and the manager and server checked on us a few times. They have a cocktail and mocktail menu, which was a bonus and mainly everything on their drink menu could be made nonalcoholic. Dessert was super rich and food was good temps!

Wow!!! This place absolutely blows so many steak houses out of the water!!! This is now my top 3…read morebest steak places I've ever had! Not only is the steak amazing but the sides are outstanding as well. It's hard to find both good meats and great sides, however Cotton Calf over delivered on both.

My goodness what a meal. The Cajun Ribeye should go in the hall of fame!

Having heard really good things about this place, I was excited to finally get to experience it. I…read moreloved the atmosphere and had a great time at the bar while waiting for the rest of our party to arrive. The bartender and drinks were amazing, and the bacon appetizer was incredible! We enjoyed the Pearberry which was light and delicious, as well as the Japanese Old Fashioned which my partner thoroughly enjoyed. Although the price for bacon seemed hefty, it's almost a slab instead of slice of bacon. It's a solid portion and very thick and deliciously coated in a sticky sweet sauce that we enjoyed. We were having a great time and were in great spirits but it took a turn once we were seated for the dining portion of the experience.. I think our experience came from the person manning the meats, who in our opinion doesn't know proper temp checks. We ordered multiple filets, ribeyes, and a tomahawk at our table of 5 and every single one was under. We asked for medium and medium rare throughout our table, but they all arrived severely underdone. The tomahawk was the biggest disappointment, when you pay a hefty price, you expect better results.. but it was raw, because rare doesn't even really describe it. We are not the type to make a fuss, so we just ate our steaks and asked for sauce to make them palatable. The flavor was there but it was very subtle, it could used a bit more seasoning. We relied heavily on the sides and our prior experience at the bar to keep spirits up. The reason this review isn't worse is because regardless of our dining experience, our bar experience was superior and I'd go back strictly for that. I would try it again to see if the cook has gotten better but not for a while.

This review is so long overdue. We first visited Antebellum shortly after we moved to Gainesville 6…read moreyears ago, and it immediately became our favorite restaurant in the area. It's by far the best! The two owners, Nick and Alison, are the reason for this. They have incredibly high standards and that's reflected in every dish - from the ingredients to the presentation. Every time, we get appetizers, entrees, and dessert (because it's all so delicious), and their cocktail menu just keeps getting better and better. It's been solid since our first visit, but over the past year they tripled the size and elevated the menu so much we think Antebellum now rivals the best cocktail spots in Atlanta! If you live in the area and haven't yet been, or if you're visiting, make a reservation - and be sure to order appetizers, mains, and dessert (and of course cocktails). There's no need to overthink what you order. Every dish and cocktail they serve is exceptional.

The tall black lady with dreads/braids was extremely rude and tried to cheat us by adding water to the kool aid they sell.

So disappointed in the place, They must be rich and don't need customers. Save your money and don't go here. It shouldn't matter how much we spend, each customer should be treated with dignity and respect. This company doesn't have it!!!!

Ambiance is cute but on the dark side with bar seating, half booth /half tables and table and chairs. Good tunes playing but very loud so if you are looking to have convo during your meal this isn't the place. We enjoyed our meals for the most part. Seafood egg rolls were bomb but small portion size for cost. Shrimp creole was tasty but heavy on the salt. Seafood platter was pretty basic but did come with a bomb dipping sauce. Sides were pricey (nearly $6 each) for a small bowl of just ok collards and mac n cheese.
