We were greeted at our table by our server, Sarah, who was outstanding throughout our meal. I have a dairy allergy, which she inquired about when I ordered an appetizer with no cheese that normally would have it. This led to the assistant manager coming to talk with me about my entree selection and arranging for some substitutions that made me very happy and healthy! She checked in with us in a friendly, professional way throughout our meal. She cleaned away the bread crumbs from our places after our first course dishes were removed, which was much appreciated. We were a party of 4. We chose drinks from a very nice menu which included several special cocktails and other libations. Our table had an artichoke heart appetizer as well as a meatballs. For the main course, I had halibut, the others had the shrimp and scallops dish, branzino entree, and short rib ravioli. All were very pleasantly presented, and delicious, with imaginative combinations of flavors. The entire service experience was well above the norm. Highly recommend 618 and will definitely be back again.
