This is a relatively new restaurant, just out of Ashby town centre, opposite to the Somerfield supermarket. Ever since it opened in the summer, Ask has been almost permanently busy, to give you an example I tried to book it for a Saturday night and was offered a table either at 5.00pm or 10.30pm. Whilst we were dining, people were contantly trying to get a table, but were turned away because the restaurant was fully booked!
The restaurant has a great atmosphere, bustling and energetic, with an entertaining aside of watching the chefs preparing your food at breakneck speed. The menu was comprehensive with a variety of pasta dishes, pizzas, seafood etc., with a good smattering of daily specials. The waitresses were helpful in choosing dishes and friendly, but there wasn't enough of them. Three to cater for a fairly large restaurant was just not enough, they were rushed off their feet.
Food wise, the dishes were well presented and of a generous proportion, but for me a little on the expensive side, especially the desserts. An expansive wine selection complimented the food well though. Overall an enjoyable night out in a great atmosphere, but a little overpriced read more
