   The restaurant boasts it is 5star. The only 5 star was the waiter George and the broccoli cheddar soup. Everything else was over priced and over hyped. The dining area is not private or romantic. We both ordered filet Mignon and received the worse cut of meat I’ve ever seen. The beef was so tough you had to saw to cut through it and the taste reminded me of bouillon cube. It was served with 3 pieces of asparagus and 1 ice cream scoop size of mashed potatoes for $54. We had 2 bites of beef and asparagus for dinner and left hungry. The waiter George was very kind and apologized but the kitchen staff could be heard saying negative things. 2 other couples ordered the same thing while we were there and they too left hungry because the beef was so gross. The decor in the home was very pretty but if you want a good steak skip the dinner and take the tour.

   We had a lovely dinner at 1818! Our waiter George was very attentive; he has been there over 30 years and knew lots of the history of the place. The redfish special was delicious, and the duck entree was very tender and cooked perfectly! The restaurant was quiet and the ambiance so nice. We will be back!

   Once again, we had a perfect dining experience at 1818. The service is always top notch and the staff are familiar with us and always deliver the best! Our entrees of duck breast and redfish were prepared perfectly with excellent sides. We did start with the roasted red pepper soup and gumbo and both were very tasty. The atmosphere and elegance of the dining rooms make it extra special. This will continue to be a regular stop for us. Can't wait for the next time!!

   The soup needed to be sent back as it was lukewarm, but the server was very attentive and made sure that it was to our satisfaction. The fried green tomatoes were thinly sliced and were topped in just the right amount of remoulade sauce. The wedge salad was perfect. Highly recommend the wedge salad if you decide to forego the entrees. Overall, it was a nice spot to enjoy our last meal before we headed out of Natchez.

   The entire evening with George, our server, was an experience that will be remembered. I cannot say enough kind things about this dinner and the service received. The food……. absolutely stunning. Both in presentation and flavor. This place is a hidden gem and worth making a reservation at. A 100% 5 star experience! Thank you again Mr. George for your 30 years of service at 1818. Hope to come back there one day

   The ambiance was wonderful. Like going back to the early 1800’s. Our server George was incredibly seasoned and gracious. Chef Mike prepares innovative and delicious meals. An amazing dinner experience.

    On January 24, 2025, I had the pleasure of dining at Montrose 1818, and let me tell you, the food was exceptional! I started with the wedge salad, followed by the delightful lamb lollipop appetizer, and wrapped up with a delicious slice of cheesecake. The only hiccup was the biscuit, which was just a touch on the bland side — definitely could use a sprinkle of salt. But honestly, that's just a tiny aspect in an otherwise fabulous meal. Montrose itself is a charming antebellum home that adds a unique touch to the dining experience, though it does carry a bit of a musty vibe. However, that didn't take away from how enjoyable my meal was at all. I wholeheartedly recommend giving this place a try!
