I've written this review twice and erased it all. The servers and manager know what went on no need to bash in a review. Great... atmosphere. Host and servers were extremely nice. Food tasted very good; however it took 50 minutes to get 2 orders of eggsBenedict. Prices a bit high for this area so be prepared if you go and they added a $5 service fee onto the bill. Yes, theycomped the eggs and I appreciate that. With this being our first time here, probably won't go back. Read more
1861 never disappoints! I have tried dinner and brunch and both have been great. The brunch menu always makes us want to order... everything on the menu. My go to is the salmon and grits, with eggs. The chicken and waffles are great as well. Great brunchspot, or date night spot. The ambiance is great and there is a good drink menu to go along with the food. Read more
Definitely a gold gem. The restaurant has so much character and the ambiance is incredible. It's a small place and hidden in the... back. The history on this place is just amazing. The food is good and the drinks are on point. Definitely a spot to hit up. Read more
I absolutely love Brunch but wanted to try the dinner menu! The food was great. I especially loved the mango jerk... wings. Luckily we were able to find a spot in the rear of the building. Sometimes the lot is full and we utilize the streetparking near the homes on the opposite side of the road. Read more
I went to this establishment on 03/24/2022. Upon arriving I was greeted by friendly hostess that seating me and my sister. They... were so polite and helpful. The waitress was incredibly knowledgeable of the menu and helped guide me to make a great dinnerchoice. Once the food arrived it was hot and the aroma of the food immediately greeted us prior to even tasting anything. Thefeeling of your mouth watering at the anticipation of a delicious food was definitely happening. I enjoyed the Hush Puppies,very tasty. It wasn't dry inside and didn't require water for assistance. The fried green tomatoes were also delectable. Didn'thave a mushy center, it was firm and flavorful. Last our main entrées consisted of the waitress recommended Lobster and ShrimpMac And Cheese! Absolutely superb! 10/10! Flavor was great, lobster was tender and in each bite I took. My sister enjoyed theChicken and Waffles which was the perfect combination of sweet and savory. White chicken breast over a homemade waffle withcandied bacon, cooked to perfection. I implore everyone to take an opportunity to check them out. Read more

Burger Praline Beignet - do not recommend Drinks: Smoked old fashion Overall Rating: 4.1 / 5 Family Friendly: Yes Recommended:Yes Would recommend making reservations as we were walk ins and they made us wait 20 mins. Even though there was plenty oftables available. No one walked in while we were waiting, so not sure why they made us wait. The food was good, the serviceneeds help. They definitely rushed us for our table. We were waiting for our dessert and they cleared off our table before itarrived.... Even our water glasses!! Read more
