10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND! If you're looking for a delicious venue with an amazing and friendly staff for your next event, Ash Gastro Pub in Garfield Ridge is definitely the place! I was a guest at a bridal shower here, and I seriously could not get over how delicious and FRESH all the food was! The chilaquiles were AMAZING, and the potatoes were seasoned perfectly and cooked just right. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and made with care. A special shoutout to our bartender, Chayanne and another girl I cant remember her name, who were so friendly and welcoming! They made everyone feel right at home and was such a wonderful part of the celebration. The kitchen staff also deserves recognition. Even with a full event going on, they never seemed overwhelmed. I noticed them smiling at guests and sharing in our happiness throughout the celebration, which really made the experience feel extra special. From the food to the service to the overall atmosphere, Ash Gastro Pub exceeded every expectation! You can truly tell they care about their guests and the experience they provide. 10/10 I would absolutely recommend Ash Gastro Pub for your next event! read more

Love. What a gem! The wings were the bomb. The gnocchi was exceptional - and I've had a LOT of gnocchi. Truffles fries - yum. Everything was amazing. Outstanding service. Great vibe. We will be back! Can't wait to try the brunch menu! Thanks Ash. You are 10 out of 10. read more

I found this place on Yelp and was so excited to take my team here when we were in Chicago. I called ahead and scheduled a reservation so when we arrived we were immediately seated. I wasn't sure how busy the place would be, but when we got there, there were only a couple of tables with customers. Our waitress took a while to come to our table, about 10 minues, but when she did she dropped off menus. Shortly after she brought our drinks and didnt come back to the table for almost 20 minutes. When she came back she asked if we were ready to order appetizers. We let her know we waited so long we were ready to order dinner. Everyone placed their orders with some apps and the food came out about 20 min later. The chicken wings arrived and looked good but tasted flat and were dry. As for everyone's dinner, there were a variety of issues. Some complained of the food being too salty, the samon was overcooked, and the seafood tasted gritty. As for my Chicken Madeira, it was okay. The sauce would have been better if it didn't break. It was very oily and the chicken was tough. Overall, it was a cute place but we didn't have a good experience. It may have been an off night, or just our experience that night. read more

We were in the area and looking for an early dinner. Standouts were the brussels sprouts (we were surprised because they were shaved and then cooked rather than served halved, but the bits were crispy and very flavorful), the scallops and the shrimp de jonghe, which was VERY flavorful. Appetizers are sharing size, and portions are large--we ordered too much! Wait staff was very friendly and attentive, and the space is cute and spacious! There is street parking out front. read more

Cocktails were on point! Love when they get to open the front garage door also. Servers/bartenders are knowledgeable and helpful with the menu. Definitely a hidden gem. read more

The space itself is cute. I liked how it was decorated and the atmosphere was good. The server was very friendly, personable, and attentive. The boneless garlic parmesan wings snd frenchfries were fresh and the drinks were refreshing snd strong. read more

Every time we've gone to Ash, it's terrible service. And because it's a local neighborhood spot, we keep trying to give them another chance. We went on a Friday night after seeing they were not busy. We were seated quickly and got menus. And that's all we got! We sat there for there for a while. Two tables ate and left. We didn't even get water. We watched as everyone left and we were the only ones left. They began cleaning up and yet no one came to take our order. Not even a drink. We asked if they were closing and the waitress by the bar said no, they were still open. We decided to leave. At this point we are done going back to Ash. read more

My wife and I like to support local businesses which is why we dined at Ash. Our experience was not good at all. We ordered two entrees. Waitress/bartender got 50% of our orders wrong. Whereas this would great if this was your batting avg in the MLB; for a restaurant it was horrible. There were three other tables occupied while we dined, so being too busy was no excuse. I ordered a prime rib sandwich. The meat look like it was grated. Tiny little pieces of meat. The menu describe the sandwich as having shaved prime rib. Therefore i was expecting something resembling sliced meat. In reality is more resembled razor stubble. Our bill was over $100 for a less than mediocre meal. Sadly we will be reluctant to return. read more

The seared scallops, perfectly cooked and served with a delicate citrus glaze, are a must-try, as well as their bang bang shrimp. Just delicious! The staff is always ready to offer recommendations, ensuring that each guest finds the perfect pairing. They are very attentive. Whether you're looking for a casual night out or a special occasion, this restaurant is a must try! read more

Ahhh-mazing spot! I was traveling between Ohare & Midway on a layover & stumbled into Ash's! Best decision of our trip so far! We had two apps, Brussels & Fries, main The Daily Special - Smoked Short Ribs & the steak, and lastly ended the night with donuts & meeting the owner! We knew that we picked the right place when we demolished the Shaved Brussel Sprouts! Yes it's a gastropub but like, so much more. The flavor on the Short Ribs were nothing shy of amazing! The donuts were still warm when they hit the table - if you told me they didn't have a pastry chef doing their desserts I would be shocked! All the pricing for Chicago are reasonable - and while we didn't have drinks with dinner we did not feel out of place or required to drink! The server Gabby, was great & made sure the steak was cooked exactly how we wanted! When we have another midway layover we'll absolutely be back! read more

ASH gastropub - Creamy salmon and chicken sandwich - Gastropubs Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This place was a typical gastropub for me. I came here with a large group and they were fairly effective at getting the food out. I didn't have water for most of the meal which left me a bit parched. I got the chicken Madeira which was a FULL MEAL. It had like 4 chicken breasts, mashed potatoes, gravy, asparagus, and mushrooms. It could have used less chicken. The chicken was pretty bland and really needed the cheese and gravy on top. Salmon and the fries looked delicious but I did not have any. Overall, it was good but did not provide anything too special. read more

We were there last night celebrating my friend's birthday and had a great time. Luckily we had a reservation because the place was packed with an Archer bar crawl crowd. Thus was my 3rd time here, with the first time not impressed with the chicken sandwich which was on the sweet side, the second time shared the waffles & chicken and the salmon BLT....both sooo good! Last night, I finally tried their burger of the month...OMG AMAZING!!!! A nice thick patty of delicious beef, topped with a healthy amount of perfectly seared shrimp, melted mozzarella and a delicious aioli. And I got mine well-done (don't judge!)...good-god they couldn't have cooked it any more perfect than what I was served! It was soo juicy, no pink whatsoever, which could be challenging to prepare, but they nailed it!!!!! The fries that came with the burger are always yummy. My other friend had their broiled shrimp pasta and it was very good. The birthday girl had the chicken piccata on their specials menu...this left me confused. The chicken looked to have been battered & fried rather than the traditional way of preparing a piccata...maybe it's just their interpretation of a piccata. But the asparagus that came with the dish were a nice large size and cooked perfectly! We had their doughnuts for dessert and they were also very yummy! Freshly prepared and beautiful presentation! Drinks were ok. The service was ok considering the overwhelming crowed due to the night's events. I liked that we were not rushed and enjoyed a nice dinner with friends. If you go, definitely try their burgers! You will not be disappointed! read more

Great place to hang out with friends and family for food and drinks. The entire staff are great people!!!

I'd like to UPDATE my review of ASH. I spoke with one of the owners who just happens to be a firefighter (come out and support our first responders), every suggestion I made was implemented. They now have my favorite drink and Monique is a wonder server. The wings are delicious. My husband said they were even better than Danny's. Come out and try our new best restaurant in the neighborhood. The food never disappoints. The service is wonderful. read more

Went here for brunch recently with some friends. Our server was super nice and attentive. We did the bottomless mimosas/bloodies and she made sure my mimosa never found the bottom. My friend said that her Bloody Mary was really good - she described it as smoky. Run down of the food we ordered: Burger - I had the burger and thought it was really good and juicy. The waffle fries were also excellent Chicken and waffles - my friend was disappointed to hear that the chicken and waffles featured chicken wings instead of boneless. However once she tasted them she was very pleased. I tried a bite of the waffle and thought it was delicious. Steak and eggs - Steak and eggs were divine. My friend said it was probably one of the best steaks she's had. And the hash browns(even though they were more like roasted potatoes) had a really good seasoning to them. I tried a bite of the steak and would definitely order that next time. The owner was walking around to tables and chatting with everyone which is always a nice touch. Parking can be a little tough on Archer but it's smarter to Uber when you're planning on day drinking anyway! Can't wait to go back to try dinner. read more

This place is amazing and much needed in the area. (Garfield Ridge, West Lawn, West Elsdon, Midway) They interior is so well done, I could just review that! The beer flights, wine list, apps and entrees are perfectly priced and just enough to choose from. I hope they get a website going soon! Parking is a bit tricky in Archer Ave but side streets a plenty. They just opened Friday (11/22/19) so Give them time. A learning curve to figure out the crowds. They already ran out of Cod, Sprouts, and burgers! Today Sunday 11/24/19) and I hope It stays this busy! This area craves this kind of menu. I'm a bit biased because my daughter works there but all staff were friendly.! https://www.facebook.com/ASH-gastropub-105461114134238/ read more

Came for the breakfast brunch buffet. Our waitress was super nice and friendly, kept the champagne coming for our mimosas. There were plenty of food options including the basic American breakfast foods (egg, bacon, sausage, pancakes) which were all standard-nothing special. The bananas foster French toast, Mac and cheese, Brussel sprouts and smoked wings were our favorite. The place is nice and it's a great place to catch up with friends over a solid boozy brunch. Glad to have them in the Garfield Ridge area! read more

Finally got the chance to go to ASH and we were so impressed! Incredible food, amazing service, fun/lively atmosphere. We had some of the specials as appetizers which were delicious, and I absolutely loved the flavor of the bang bang chicken sandwich. We couldn't stop thinking about the food, so we ordered carry out a few days later! It's obvious that the menu is created by a culinary professional. This will be our new go-to place in the neighborhood! read more

Slowest service I've ever experienced. Went on a Saturday night with my bf, and the restaurant was not crowded at all as it was already 7pm. Despite that, it took ages to be greeted by our server and for our drink orders to be taken. Our server was extremely forgetful - we ordered one cocktail for drinks, and then one plate of vodka pasta (it was the special that day) and one order of the bang bang chicken sandwich. No modifications or anything, but our server came back at least 3 times clarifying the order because she didn't write it down. The food took over 30 minutes to come out, and it was mediocre at best so it just wasn't worth the wait nor the poor service by the waitstaff. I paid with my debit card, and at first the charge was on my account, then it disappeared, and then it suddenly charged it again with my tip included. I find it weird that they processed my payment over a week after I dined in. I won't be returning, and I don't recommend. Had high hopes for this place, and I'm pretty disappointed overall. read more

I catered from ASH gastropub for my graduation party and the attendes of my party would not stop raving about how phenomenal the food was.

The fries are unbelievable! We also had a couple bloody Mary's and wine too. read more

Food is delicious! Service was wonderful! Sweet and savory Brussels sprouts *chef's kiss*

Nice place . The Brussels sprouts didn't taste great . I rather have them in a Brussels instead a bunch of leaves . Salmon pasta dish was under cooked. Elotes fries were pretty good read more

Was back to share a burger and the sprouts (eats like a salad), both were very good and since we were just looking for a quick meal splitting these two were perfect. The very sweet waitress started with "we are out of..." and it was early in the evening! That can get real old, real quick so I hope they get it together. read more

Great neighborhood spot. Food was outstanding, good service and love the ambiance. Highly recommend the street corn dip.

Excellent experience! Very friendly waitress and chill atmosphere. While dining here, I felt like I was up north in the wicker park area! The waitress recommended the tapas appetizer and wasn't wrong about it tasting great. Drinks tasted great! Huge selection of craft beers! The chicken and pesto pasta dish was cooked excellently and had flavor in every bite. I had the Ribeye, the presentation was very warming, meat had excellent quality and was seasoned well and cooked perfectly at medium. For desert we had the homemade donuts which were to die for. Prices were exactly what I expected and would gladly pay for again. Hoping this stays a gem in Garfield Ridge as we will definitely be back! read more

New to the neighborhood, Ash really outdid itself. The atmosphere and whole vibe of the restaurant is cozy and a perfect place to get dinner with a significant other or a group of friends! My first time here was with a group of 4 and after a brief wait we were seated near the open kitchen. We ordered a bottle of wine for the table before dinner that arrived in a chiller. Once ordered our food the service was fast. I got the burger which was delicious with a side of waffle fries. For my first experience, I would say it was a positive one! I'm excited to return to try their brunch and other entrees! read more

Stopped in last night for my birthday with a larger group. It was busy but the servers easily accommodated us after a brief wait. It's absolutely gorgeous and I loved all of the detail. I got the caprese prosciutto salad and my mom got the French onion soup, both delicious. Also tried a few bites of the brussels sprouts and mac n cheese which were super flavorful. I highly recommend a stop in to this perfect addition to the southside! I cannot wait to come back and try more. read more
