    5 Stars - Fantastic Experience at Restaurant 618! Restaurant 618 in Freehold exceeded our expectations! The menu was excellent, offering a wide variety of options, including an abundance of gluten-free choices. Every dish we received was outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our server, Joe N., was phenomenal! Attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, he made our experience even better. We’ll definitely be requesting him on our next visit. The drinks were also excellent—super tasty and well-crafted. The only minor suggestion would be for the live music entertainment to start a bit earlier. Otherwise, everything was top-notch! Highly recommend Restaurant 618 for a fantastic dining experience!
