We went out to dinner as a whole family as our son is going back to college this weekend. Everything we ate was amazing- we literally ate every morsel of the apps, meals and desserts we ordered. Our waiter was Marc and he was so attentive and knowledgeable of the menu and even timing of when our food was coming out! We will definitely be back and hope Marc is our waiter!

Our server, Marc (I believe that was his name and by the way, he could be a stand in for Michael Keaton!!) was awesome. He was very personable, attentive but not over bearing, very knowledgeable of 618’s menu and very courteous. The food, cocktails and excellent service made for an enjoyable night and Marc added to the experience. This was a business dinner and a perfect choice in which my clients extended their satisfaction.
