   A steakhouse that has hanger steak cooked well is important. They did it well. Cocktail game on point. Only thing I would add is seasonal specials to keep the “want to go back four times a year vibe. Everything was high quality, cooked perfectly, served well. Just that return factor beyond the standard steakhouse picks.

   Our experience at 1870 was excellent. The menu offered a variety of selections for every palet. My wife does not eat meat, but she had numerous options to choose from, and all were delicious. The wait staff was on the mark; attentive, courteous, and the flow of the meal was orchestrated beautifully from start to finish. While a bit pricey, the overall value was very good. We are thrilled to have a top caliber restaurant right here in Midlothian.

   1870 was amazing. It was my first time there and I would definitely go back. We sat at the high tops at the bar and the noise level was good, not too loud. It got a little louder as the night went on but I could still hear my husband. The food was amazing! The service was phenomenal! Aiden was on top of it and always checking in. He explained what would taste best and very attentive.

   Amazing food and our waitress was incredible very accommodating and very well trained. It is a little noisy in there, but the place was packed. The food was beyond good and we will be back.

    The first time we went to 1870 was phenomenal. The food and service were excellent. The second time, the food was still great but the service was poor to the point of being strange - the burrata was served without the sourdough, which is in the menu description, and then the server had a weird discussion with us about how they weren't sure if it was supposed to come with the bread or not. Other items were dropped at the table without acknowledging us at all as if the staff were doing a drive by. This third time we were hoping the last bad experience was an isolated event, but this was so much worse. The bartender gave us a bit of an attitude, we were left with empty drinks for 15 minutes (at bar seating), we never received the salad we ordered, and left after about an hour. There were several staff seemingly doing nothing, all assembled at the bar, taking frequent smoke breaks and paying no attention to the relatively few customers. It was a really unfortunate dining experience for what should be an amazing restaurant. I hope 1870 sorts out its clear performance issues.
