Is there a nice restaurant in an old victorian home around Atlanta? (Roswell: houses, weddings)

[jennydowd]

Where my hubby and I used to live, there was a great Italian restaurant in a converted victorian home that had such charm and a romantic atmosphere. We really miss that place and I was wondering if there is a similar place someplace around Atlanta.

Anyone know of a place like that?

Not a Victorian home, but Anthony's is located in an old plantation home. It's in Buckhead on Piedmont just south of Peachtree St.

Anthony's Fine Dining - Corporate Meetings, Outdoor Country Garden Weddings & Special Occasions Banquet Hall Facility

Not a Victorian, but the same idea, is Babette's Cafe in Inman Park:

Canton Street in Roswell has several restaurants located in old homes, with plenty of charm.

I know this is a little late, but thanks all! I appreciate the responses. I had forgotten I posed this question until City-Data sent me an email yesterday saying I had responses.

Anthony's sounds like a winner. Blue Willow sounds good, but a bit too far for us, as we live up in Canton.

If you live in Canton, head to downtown Woodstock- they just redid one of the old houses into an Italian restaurant called Ipps. It's tied to the Ippolitos restaurants somehow.

Not an Italian Restaurant, but in Downtown Woodstock, a charming restaurant called Magnolia Thomas. It is an historic landmark on Arnold Mill Road. They serve southern ecclectic food and have a great Sunday brunch.

This restaurant was burned in a freak fire in 2007 and they rebuilt it. I personally feel it lost some of it's charm when they rebuilt, but it is wonderful nevertheless and as foodies, consider it one of our favorites.

We love this place. Housed in a Victorian/bungalow type restaurant right in midtown on Crescent Street.

Bob: although the "coming soon" sign is up, it isn't open yet.

We love Magnolia Thomas. It's a great restaurant and a nice atmosphere. Except....because of the fire they gutted and restored the interior with a more open floor plan. So, as you say, it lost some of its charm. If you're looking for a restaurant in a house with an authentic atmosphere then Magnolia Thomas isn't quite it.
