    A refined retreat where modern gastronomy meets the effortless charm of small town life. The aesthetic blends crisp white interiors with lush green accents, echoing the balance they strike on every plate: thoroughly reimagined elevated comfort food! Sourcing seasonally and locally, the chef crafts dishes that are both inventive, yet familiar. From the standard refined classics to the pop up specials, every dish is crafted to surprise, satisfy and maybe even spark a little menu envy. Behind the bar are friendly familiar faces - who believe the best drinks are made with precision, creativity and a dash of well placed sass. They don't make your grandad's Old Fashioned, unless your grandad has a cedar humidor, a record collection that smells like whiskey and a tattoo he got in Paris. Served over a hand cut cube that melts slower than small town gossip, it's always bold, balanced and consistent. Come hungry, I always do, leave glowing and maybe a little bit in love with your entree. Cheers!

    Spicy pesto panini sandwich
    Riley H.

    Came here on a Saturday for lunch. They must have been super understaffed. Had to wait a super long time for food. Also heard multiple comments from the wait staff about being called in last minute and wishing they had more help. I'm not sure when this place opened, but it seems that they definitely have some more learning to do. I ordered the spicy pesto panini with fries. It was pretty good. My main issue is that my panini came out quite literally 15 minutes before my fries or my partner's food. Then, after my partner finally got his food, they had prepared the burger with cheese (he's allergic to dairy). They immediately re-made it and brought out fries to hold him over. I appreciated how they handled it, but wish we didn't have to wait for so long. They also took the burger off the bill which was much appreciated. The only reason this review isn't lower than 4 stars is because I admire how they handled the situation and I'll give them grace for being a relatively new restaurant. The overall ambiance of the restaurant was nice. The green vibes were good.

    BLT with fries

    This is a great spot for delicious food. The portions are huge! We started with the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls. I had the BLT sandwich with fries and my sister ordered the cheeseburger. The service was great! We got there at a good time so it wasn't too busy or crowded during lunch. Our waitress was the only one working the bar and tables so we made sure to give her a generous tip. Can't wait to return to try something different on their menu.

    I really enjoy Ash & Dill! They have great food, good drink specials, and kind efficient servers. I've been 5 or 6 times since they opened and I think it's one of the best restaurants we have here in Wendell. Ash & Dill is a great neighborhood bar anywhere but our other restaurant options here are lacking - come on, Wendell! I really hope they stick around because the burgers and sandwiches are delicious, fries are crispy and seasoned, and they run changing food specials which I've also enjoyed! Please give them your business if you're looking for an affordable laid back and tasty meal!

    Overall good service, good food. We tried the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls and they were really good

    The special bacon burger with a side salad.  Epic!
    John A.

    Had a great dinner here. Nice and clean new place here in downtown. I got. The bacon burger was actually a double bacon burger with a side salad. Was very good service was good. Food came out quick. The flavor of the burger was amazing.Really, really good highly. Recommend you try this place.

    Very mixed emotions about this place. Let's start with the good. This is a very neat place inside. The decor is modern and the place is well kept. The servers were also very polite and well mannered. The food was decent. Not the best I've ever had but certainly not bad. However there were a few things that definitely could be improved. This place is relatively new (opened Nov. 2024) and you could definitely tell they were still figuring things out. It took about 15 minutes for someone to come take our order. Not a huge deal. It seemed like the waitresses were hustling around constantly and did not have a minute to relax. After placing our order it took a while for our food to come out. Like ~35 minutes for a burger. The person I was with ordered a panini and it came out in like 25 minutes, so that wasn't coordinated very well because by the time mine came out the panini was dead cold. To make matters worse, when my burger came out, the order was wrong, so they had to remake it which took at least another 10 minutes. The waitress did the right thing and comped it and informed us that they only had one cook in the back (sounds like someone called off that day) but at this point I was just hungry and frustrated. On the menu it also says that their meals are served with a side and a pickle, but both meals had no pickle, so that was disappointing. I really wish I could give this place a great review but it's just not there yet. Hopefully they can get some logistical stuff sorted out and I look forward to returning for a 5-star experience!

While the staff were very nice, there was only one person running around managing all the tables, and my salmon salad was terrible - I specifically asked how the jalapeños were cut, so I could take them out if they were too hot - and was reassured that they were cut in coins/slices and would be easy to remove. When the salad came, they were diced super tiny and super spicy - and really difficult to remove. Also, a good part of my salad was avocado, and it was so unripe that it was crunchy! When I mentioned these concerns to the staff, the lady apologized about the jalapeños and said her niece works in the kitchen and had told her that she's been throwing away the soft avocados because that means they're not good anymore. Who has kitchen staff (especially family members) that don't even know what a ripe avocado looks and feels like?!? She did acknowledge and apologize that my salad was nothing like I had expected (or they had advertised), but did not offer any sort of a discount - although we also did not ask. As the only place with actual food in that area, we had high hopes, but sadly we will definitely NOT be back. The only reason I did not leave one star is because my husband ordered the beet salad. It was tiny, but tasted good.

Literally I don't want my burger to end. Oh, and the fries!!! The fries were perfect, not shoe string, not waffle or wedge, but in between and seasoned to perfection.

You could smell the grill going when you walk up and it really makes it real for you that you are about to experience some good eatin! I ordered the "Southern Thang" burger. Which is their version of Carolina Style or Chili And slaw burger! They nailed it!!! Everything tasted so fresh, the bun was perfectly toasted and even had a PAW PRINT stamped on top! Their logo has dog ears so I guess the paw-print is part of their marketing. Either way it's cute! I also orders the beer battered steak fried which were hot and crispy! This was a huge plus. Too many food trucks have those basic restaurants straight cut fries that you pick up from bargain stores but this place definitely decided to stand out! The price was on par with other major burger eateries, maybe even cheaper considering you get a lot of food for the price. All in all this place surprised me by delivering restaurant quality food, fresh and hot, with excellent service. I will definitely be back!

When alerted to my allergies, he made sure to check with the chef and make good recommendations on things I could have and still enjoy my time out. Each staff member were very friendly and pleasant. Ambiance - 5/5 This location was very clean and orderly - even the restroom! There was plenty of seating inside and outside. The temp within the building was perfect - not to cold or hot. Food - 3/5 Now, for the most important part - FOOD. This is where they fell a little short for me. I ordered: - The Salmon Salad (one of the specials) - The Philly Cheesesteak (one of the specials) - comes with a side (fries) - 5 wings with blue cheese Due to my allergies, I changed out the strawberry dressing for blue cheese and ranch. The salmon salad was pretty good overall. I believe the strawberry dressing would have given it the balance it needed of a hint of sweetness from the fruit. But it was still good. Where things fell short was the cheesesteak. I did it with the wings as take out. The flavors of the cheesesteak were off. I shared it with others and we all said it was a seasoning on the meat or something that didn't go well. It didn't have the taste you are familiar with when it comes to a classic cheesesteak. It wasn't horrible but it wasn't something we would order again - you know things just ain't forever one. This was one for us. It might be something great for someone else. The wings and fries were good. The fries had a good seasoning to them and the wings weren't hard - so all good in our book. We will definitely return to try other items on the menu.

We were sat in the back of the restaurant and felt tucked away, but this didn't hinder service in the slightest. Our waiter was attentive, friendly, and very helpful. He knew the menu and had a confident answer to every question. Before being sat at our table, we grabbed a drink at the bar and asked the bartender about the menu. There was a woman who took special time to explain what the menu items were and how they differed from your usual "chicken or beef etc". Which was not only informative, but interesting too. Onto the star of the show, the meal. We ordered the bison & farro and the poulet rouge carbonara. Both of these dishes were phenomenal. I've never had a culinary experience even close to this one.

Anyway, Was shown to my table, a male server showed up, lit the candle, and I didn't see anyone for 18 minutes while two tables around me were greeted, cleared the table of extra dishes not needed and was served water, and their plates for the dinner buffet. The server that lit the candle, came back, asked if my server showed up. Uh, no. Finally, a woman server came by, went to the other table. Can't make this up. Then she realized they were being taken care of. She finally made it to me. I informed her I was dining alone, she cleared extra dishes, asked if I needed salt or pepper. Interesting question considering I didn't have any food. She filled my water glass, then brought my plate, as it was a dinner buffet night. Their first dinner buffet. No excuse for the poor service, though. Make me feel important, valued whether dining alone or with a group, please. The buffet had a great variety of proteins and sides. A couple of beef strip choices, shredded chicken, crisp tortillas to build your own nachos for the kids, fried catfish, fried chicken patty, salmon, swordfish, all cut into small portions. Proteins were the perfect size to try everything without filling up. A carving station consisted of sirloin, pork loin, sausage and baked salmon. The seasoning on every protein at the buffet and carving station was different. Excellent. Sides included mac and cheese, roasted potatoes, a squash medley, Brussels Sprouts, and mashed potatoes. A nice spread for a salad included mixed greens, large leaves of them. All the veggie toppings, two kinds of shredded cheeses, house made croutons, four dressings and fresh fruit that blew me away. Every bite of the fruit was ripe, sweet. Not the hard, no flavor offerings at some establishments/groceries this time of year. The gumbo had large pieces of shrimp, crawfish, sausage, potatoes, and smaller pieces of mussels, mini shrimp, etc. The breads selection was biscuits, baguette and others. All fresh, soft and crunchy. Great to dip into the gumbo broth. Dessert offerings included brownies and cookies. I opted to enjoy a brownie along with the fresh berries/fruit. They also offer a Sunday brunch buffet. The other nights they have a full menu. Be aware, they automatically add in a "brunch gratuity" of 20% to the bill. Overall, I would visit again.
