Jack & Charlie's no. 118 is best described as a love letter to old New York, paying tribute to the supper clubs, speakeasies, and icons that made New York City's history so special. Led by Executive Chef/Partner Ed Cotton, the restaurant is offering creative takes on raw bar oysters and shellfish, handmade pastas, wood-fired meats and seafood. It is currently operating in "soft opening mode" until a full rollout in the weeks to come.

Chef Cotton has spent the last two decades in the restaurant industry, working alongside such high-profile chefs as Barbara Lynch (Relais & Châteaux Grand Chef), Daniel Boulud (Daniel, Le Pavillon), David Burke (Woodpecker, David Burke Tavern) and Laurent Tourondel (The Vine, L'Amico, BLT Steak).
