    My husband took me here last night for my birthday, along with my cousin and his wife. One of my favorite places to eat! Great food and drinks! Their French Kiss martini is so delicious! There aren’t many restaurants that can make this tasty drink. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars for service was because our waiter never came back to our table to take our food order after bringing the drinks. I had to flag down one of the managers who then took our order. Everything from the bread to the dessert was fantastic! I highly recommend this restaurant for dinner as well as for parties since I had my daughter’s baby shower here last month and it was wonderful! My friends and family couldn’t stop talking about how good the food and service was.

    My husband and I went to 618 for our 3 year wedding anniversary and it was truly one of the best nights out we have had in a while. This was a special night as I had my bridal shower here 3 years ago and was beyond impressed with the food and service from the incredible staff. From the time we entered the restaurant everything was amazing! The hostess was super friendly and immediately upon checking in she welcomed us by wishing us a happy anniversary. We arrived at our table and it was set with a rose made out of a napkin with a personalized card for our wedding anniversary. We opened up the menu to see an insert with more anniversary wishes. Meghan L was our waitress and she was incredible! She had was kind, attentive and overall amazing. She provided recommendations made sure our glasses were full and that we had the most memorable night for our anniversary. Just when I thought this experience couldn’t get any better, Meghan brought us out our after dinner drinks which were personalized with another anniversary wish, and some complimentary champagne to cheers with. I can honestly say I have not had this great of a restaurant experience in quite some time, lucky for us we live so close to 618 and will be back!!
