“ Rachel was the best server! She was so informative, kind, and made the best espresso martinis! We asked for the signature steaks for lunch & they were absolutely delicious. I absolutely loved this place! ”
“ What amazing, talent chefs this place has. I've never ordered all the appetizers and loved all of them. My whole group couldn't pick a favorite, they were all delicious. The lobster salad is a must try...absolutely perfect. Our server was Luis and he was phenomenal, great personality and very diligent. Halibut was great. Diver scallops were also delicious but small. A very impressive dinner experience Definitely dont skip the desserts. Pistachio ice cream and praline was amazing. Bread pudding was also a hit. ”
“ Justin was the man in charge of our fabulous luncheon, made some amazing drinks and very informative and polite ”
“ We went to 18 Oaks during a stay at the JW Marriott for my husband's birthday and we were pleasantly surprised. The food was excellent, but our server, Mark, (I believe) really made the whole experience great. He was so helpful and kind. ”
“ Amazing service from the person who sat us (unfortunately I don't remember his name) and Louis our server. Luis was very helpful answering all our questions on the menu items. We asked for his recommendations and we were very happy with them. Luis always came around checking on us and refilling our glasses. Food and wine were amazing. Enjoyed it so much I forgot to take some pictures. ”
“ I did not have any food but the service and the ambience was great. Had a lemon drop martini Drink fantastic perfect. Thanks, Adrian ”
“ Loved this steakhouse...we went as a family while staying on property at the JW Marriott Resort. We had the lobster bisque, a steak, asparagus, mashed potatoes, shrimp cocktail, and bread pudding. Everything tasted delicious and the service was great. The bread tray was a great starter and the kids thoroughly enjoyed helping Dad pick out his steak knife. We definitely would return. ”
“ Love the location ... right off the golf course. They have bar, indoor, and patio seating. We were greeted and seated immediately as we arrived on time for our reservation. (I recommend reservations as they are busy even on Weds night) We started with a few drinks from the bar ... old fashion and ranch water were mixed well. They served bread with butter, olive oil, and amazing spicy pickles. I could have eaten a bowl of those pickles. I wished the olive oil had herbs in it. Later, the waiter came back, and we ordered the crab cakes. They were very good .. lumped crab, seared and served with an aoli. Followed it up with French Onion soup. For dinner, we had the New York Strip and the small filet. Both were perfectly cooked .. medium rare+. I love that the waiter offered since I teetering on my cook choice. I added truffle butter and blue cheese. Loved the butter. Was confused on why the blue cheese came as a side and not broiled on top. Added honeyed sweet potato fries with a yum yum sauce ... hard to find a new and fun way to eat fries. They did. However, serious kudos for the truffle cream corn ... best I have ever had! I love it when the waiting staff allows you to take your time, visit, and enjoy every course of your meal. The service was attentive and not intrusive .. the experience lasted 1.75 hours. Definitely will be finding my way back! ”
“ First time dining at 18 Oaks. The servers were great. We were in the wine room. So it was pretty quiet except for servers walking in to collect bottles of wine. The service was very attentive, but things took a long time, but I appreciated that they were able to divide the bill among so many of us. I didn't get a picture of the fries, but that was the best thing I ate the rolls were also tasty. Sorry no pictures. I got the wagyu filet and it wasn't special. I've had seared wagyu, and it was great. This one was mushy, not melty. There was a spread which tasted like duck and pate. If you love nutmeg, try the brie ice cream. I truly hate nutmeg. It's the worst. The ice cream was ruined, and I just let it melt into a puddle. The panna cotta was great! During our dinner, a fist fight broke out in the main area of the restaurant. If you're interested in fighting, don't ruin other people's time. Don't go out to dinner. Go for a walk. Our area was protected from the nuisance, but there were tons of people who saw what happened in the main area. Service: 5 Food: 3 Ambiance: 4 ”
“ Great steakhouse located within Jw marriott. It is located in the same building as the golf clubhouse and gift shop. We did have reservations and had no issues getting seated. There was a large bar area we noticed upon getting seated. This is one of the more upscale restaurants located here but no real formal dress required. Dressy casual. The bread we got served upon seating was delicious but give a party of 2 more than 2 rolls. That will go quickly! The French onion soup i got was very filling and delicious. My husbands Caesar salad was even better the dressing was perfect and mixed just perfectly. We ordered a $45 bottle of Malbec and it was delicious plus great price point for here considering how crazy markup is on wine at steakhouses... Charlie was our server he was helpful and kind, Demetria was his assistant and she was our absolute favorite! So personable and very attentive. We enjoyed her company. The mac and cheese was my favorite part of the entire meal. So fresh and the crusted bread crumbs atop was just the perfect treat. The cream corn was also delicious. As for the filet my husband got the wagyu steak and it was like butter he could cut right through it! My filet was okay super juicy and more red than usual of what i get at home. Overall was a great experience loved the pace of this restaurant as well because you never felt rushed and allowed you to fully enjoy this nice meal! We enjoyed it out on the patio which is even better! ”
