You cannot go wrong with this place. I liked the simplicity of the menu. I'm not a person who enjoys menus with multiple pages. It makes me feel they don't want to concentrate on a few dishes and hit them outside of the park.The atmosphere was inviting, clean, organized and nice for the family and I.The server was friendly and professional.Our food was phenomenal. Everyone was really happy. Presentation and portions was amazing.Really felt like a treat!Definitely recommend.

Fantastic food, we tried several items from the app menu to gauge the quality of the restaurant. They knocked it out of the park. The bourbon smoke experience was such a wonderful touch. We will be going back just for the bourbon experience.

ONE18 EMPIRE isn't an inexpensive place but the food experience *is* above average. I've only been there twice but both times the staff appeared inexperienced. Maybe I just got the newbie both times.

Great atmosphere, food and cocktails were delicious. Very pricey... Especially for what we got. Beautiful presentation, but only 3 pieces of meat with the bison burnt ends. Delicious but not worth the price. Amazing old fashioned menu, but at $24 per drink you couldn't make a night of it. Service was slow but we weren't in a hurry.

Best Old Fashion in the city. Do not order the happy hour Old Fashion. You will be disappointed. No where near as good as the regular priced menu options. Our server was amazing. Food was delicious. Highly recommend.

Honestly we were disappointed. The server was kind and lovely, but never refilled our water, never asked us if we wanted another drink... The menu's are very confusing. I thought the food was cooked good but that the food on my plate did NOT go well together. My husband did not think they cooked the food well. For us it was certainly not worth it. Friendly... very friendly. But not good

I really enjoyed my special old fashion prepared by a very competent and interesting bartender. The Humboldt salt and pepper squid was fantastic and the chocolate mousse dessert with berries was unbelievable!! I may have to have more of it. 
Make your own old fashioned was a good experience and tasted great. The food was only okay. Steak had little flavour and was served cold. Garlic Bun was dry, very crumbly, and had too much garlic butter filling. Atmosphere was cold, the speakers kept cracking, while two songs were overlapping at the same time. Overall, it was not what we were expecting.
The atmosphere, decor, and price made me expect high quality food with great taste. However, I thought that the food fell short. The burger was extremely normal, what I feel like can be a typical burger found at a fast food joint but with slightly more sauce. The fries were very skinny and hard. The salad was good. The only thing that made up for it was the $1 donation to the children's hospital. It feels like the burger really fell short of expectations and left much to be desired.

There were four of us so had a great variety of drinks, appies, entres, and desserts. Every single thing was five stars - no complaints whatsoever. Brianna was an excellent server. It was a bit of a reunion and wanted to visit and it was not too noisy. Have dined at a few more pricier places nearby and have been less impressed. Thank you for the excellent experience. See you next time!

Friendly servers and hosts.Kid-friendliness: Bar stools and a 50" TV at the table is great for a drink during the game. Not so much for dinner with little ones.
