Chef Chip does an excellent job, every thing we tried was absolutely amazing. Fried chicken was perfect, truffle fries, flatbread, pasta, and smash burger was incredible. Great food, great atmosphere, and a must try if you are in the area.

Dirty restrooms. Food was good, pricey for what it was. Good wine and cocktail list but pricey as well. When you're sharing benches and tables are close, just saying prices don't match the vibe.

One of the best restaurants in Greensboro! It doesn't get the attention it deserves in my opinion. The food is always amazing and super tasty, the craft cocktails are exquisite and there are so many to choose from! We love the truffle fries, fried chicken and the hamburger mac n cheese was drool worthy. The bartenders there know how to make a great cocktail! The service is always good, the food comes out in a timely manner and the ambiance is great, very much a cool vibe. If you haven't tried 1618 midtown; you're definitely missing out on some amazing food and drinks!

A really great experience dining at 1618. Perfect setting for a date. The food was well past expectations and I honestly am looking forward to future visits to try the rest of the menu. Drinks/cocktails are also exceptional and offer a variety of original drinks. We shared the Fried Chicken and it came out super hot & crispy. I honestly was expecting bone-in chicken but was tenders (the size was big though). Almost certain the hot sauce it came with was Texas Pete and that's actually perfect. I had the Tagliatelle and it blew me away. Nice, tender pasta cooked well - the ingredients all made sense (sausage + charred broccoli + shallot) and all came together with the bread crumbs. The service was 4/5, but was great when they came by. Highly recommend overall and would dine again.

I have been here a few times now and each time has been stellar! We love their cocktail menu, and I've gotten to try at least 5 or 6 of the drinks on their 2023 fall menu. Super great! You can't go wrong with their smash burger, and I've tried almost every appetizer/small plate and would recommend just about any of them. The aioli that comes with the fries is also so good! The servers and bartenders are always so kind and we have never had a bad experience. We love this place!
The bartender set the tone. The cocktails, the bartenders music playlist, The waiter was immaculate. The atmosphere gives relaxed maturity and the food for sure worth the try!

Ordered: Jalapeño Margarita, Taco, Truffle Fries, and Mixed Greens (salad) I've gone to to 1618 Downtown years ago a few times for lunches so I assumed this branch of 1618 would be a safe choice to meet up with my childhood friend. To start off I ordered the Truffle Fries as I was a big fan of them from the Downtown location. They were still good, but the cut of the fries were thicker than my liking. I'd give it a 4/5 since I like my fries thinner. Since it was Tuesday, I ordered their specials of a smoked brisket taco and asked if they could make a Jalapeño flavored margarita. The 1st drink was the right mix of sweet and spicy. 5/5. The 2nd drink lacked any flavor so I would give it a 2/5. Had I received the 2nd drink as my first I wouldn't have ordered a second. I was excited about the taco as it sounded delicious. You get 2 tacos which was super stuffed, unfortunately I was so hungry I didn't realize the picture was blurred until I got home). I ate the first one and I'd have to say it was a 1/5. The flavors didn't come together. The pickled poblano peppers overpowered every other ingredient. I was so hungry I ate the first taco. It's important to note that I took the taco home because I figured I could doctor it up. Surprisingly, I warmed it up in the oven, took a bit of it to give it a second chance and it tasted perfect, 5/5. I'm not sure if the flavors of my drink altered the taste of the taco at the restaurant or warming all of the ingredients up together in the oven helped (similar to when you let your ingredients simmer together when making soup). Since the taco didn't satisfy me in store I ordered the Mixed Greens, one of their salads, and it was AMAZING! 5/5. I'm glad I took a chance to see how the chai-spiced grapes and the other ingredients would pair. The staff was friendly so 5/5. I'd recommend people coming here and I would come back to try some of their other menu items. This is a good dinner location to see friends or have a date.

My wife and I came here for a quick dinner before a show. We running 10 minutes past our reservation time and on the drive down they called us and were able to accommodate our table. When we arrived we were seated immediately and promptly attended. We had a bottle of the non alcoholic wine which is really good and they bring out a bottle chiller. Our starter was the cheese board and the cheese and meats were delicious. Our main course was the market fish which we split. They brought out the dish in two separate plates and the market fish was so flavorful and cooked perfectly. This is our second coming here on a date night while dressed up and had a great dining experience.
Love the cocktail menus, the mixologists are
