Recent Reviews

What a wonderful gem of a restaurant! A very cool eclectic atmosphere! Google directed me to this excellent place from reviews and best food in my location. I had the special of the day.....coconut shrimp with steak fries and coleslaw. Honestly one of the best coconut shrimp I have had in a very long time. 6 jumbo shrimp and nice portion of fries and coleslaw, so fresh....I will have the rest for dinner tomorrow. Other patrons ordered the burger that they are known for and the famous bourbon bread pudding for dessert! Many compliments by guests as they were leaving encouraging me to try both!! The owner Tommy, was a refreshing change to many other restaurants where you can get ignored or lost in the crowd! I highly recommend The 1818 grill! You will not be disappointed!

Quaint little place on Osprey Avenue. The small interior leads to a very intimate atmosphere with a side bar available if you want to just stop in for a few drinks. Outstanding service with quick attention paid by the server. The burger was very good and cooked well, along with generous pieces of bacon. Seasoning on the fries was delicious, as well. A definite hidden hole-the-wall gem that should not be missed.

We went to 1818 Grill for dinner and let me tell you, it was fantastic! From the service, to the appetizers, to the entree, dessert and the service— this place is a must! We enjoyed the brie and shrimp appetizers,surf and turf, prime rib, peanut butter pie and bourbon bread pudding! The owner, Tommy is very personable and you never know when you might find him in the restaurant dining or visiting with guests! The restaurant is also extremely clean!
