Seaboard Surprise – We have now dined at 18 Seaboard 3 times. Each visit finding new menu offerings. Some of our favorites have included the: roasted beet and goat cheese salad, short rib bolognese pappardelle, and filet mignon (prepared perfectly medium-rare) and served with a side of goat cheese smashed potatoes. On our last visit we experienced some misses: grit and shrimp skewers were dry and overly smokey, tuna entree was flavorless, and the cracklin' pork shank was less meaty than expected. Overall, 18 Seaboard offers ... read more

A Nice Raleigh Addition – my second time dining @ 18. took some coworkers from DC and recommended the Carolina Black Grouper--my first meal there. they both loved it. i tried the flat iron steak. nice flavor-a tad on the chewy side though. i wanted the grouper but also wanted to try something different. my experience with the grouper was fabulous. a wonderful hickory taste that doesn't overpower the fish. i ordered the lemon butter side sauce but only dipped once. the grouper was fine as-is. the braised greens and goat chees... read more

Great night out – From the moment you step into 18 Seaboard, you know that this is not your usual restaurant. We loved the decor, lighting and fixtures that conjure up a feeling of modern, hip, tasteful surroundings. The wait staff was very friendly and concerned about us feeling pampered. My wife had the trout, and I ate the braised lamb shank, we're not experts but we know good food when we have it, and this was great ! Loved the sauces and the Southern touches ( e.g Catfish, grits ), Definitely try this place, you'll love... read more

Restaurant WANNA BE – No atmosphere, slow service, very, very over priced. This is NOT gourmet food, folks. Menu is extremely limited. Garlic chips are SWIMMING in grease and burned. For nine dollars, a portobello sandwich should have a portobello that AT LEAST covers the bread. Salads are swimming in oil and salad toppings are sparse. DO NOT be hooked into the hype. This is nothing but modern decor and a hopeful chef-wanna-be.

Great for a date or a group of friends – I recently went here with four girlfriends and it was absolutely wonderful. The service was very good, the decor interesting and modern. We had a round booth which made us feel like we had our own private room. The food itself was tasty, well priced and the menu had a good variety of things to choose from. Several of us had grilled fish and along with the sauces, our meals were perfect. I think we got 3 desserts to split between 5 of us and it worked for us to have a couple of bites o... read more

Fantastic fine dining that won't break the bank – Go try this place out now! This new restaurant is the best place for under $20 fine dinning. Everything we ordered was awesome. The scallop and grape appetizer was wonderful. As were the filet mignon and mashed potatoes. The service is good, fast and knowledgeable. Atmosphere is very zen/cozy. Exposed brick and low lighting. A good place to celebrate a special occasion without having to spend over $80 (including wine!).

yummy! – I went here on a weeknight with one of my girls for a mini-ladies-night-out and sat at the bar to enjoy a meal and some wine. The bartender waited on us, and his service was superb. We both got grilled seafood dishes, and both were delicious. I had the salmon, and while the temperature was a bit over what I had requested (closer to medium than medium-rare) it was still very good. The goat cheese potatoes were to die for. The portions were generous for the money, and upon professing to the bartender that we were too ... read more
