Fig & Ash Wood Fire Kitchen is a local restaurant and bar that is in the North Side neighborhood and is open for dinner and private events. It serves wood-fired cuisine that uses locally raised meats, house-made pasta, and seasonal vegetables. Currently, during the winter, examples of menu items are small plates (e.g., roasted beet salad and heirloom carrots), mid courses (e.g., linguine and blue-bay mussels), large plates (e.g., sesame soy-glazed eggplant, pork chop, and picanha), desserts (e.g., pistachio cake and Kahlua fudge brownie), and alcoholic beverages (e.g., cocktails, mocktails, wines, and beers). For my husband and me, I made a reservation for dinner through the Resy website. I chose from options of the dining room, a four-season patio with awnings and heaters, and a chef's counter with a view of the kitchen. Please note that although the foods are upscale, the dress code seems to be smart casual. We parked our vehicle in a lot a short walk away. Upon our arrival to the restaurant, a seating hostess promptly greeted and seated us. Our server provided courteous and attentive service, such as taking our order and bringing our foods on time, refilling our waters, and cleaning my crumbs. We started with a Crab Cake with decent amount of crab meat, mushroom duxelles, tasty truffle aioli, and a side of arugula salad. My main course was Branzino with sides of beans-vegetables and parmesan cornbread. My husband's main course was Duck Breast with a blood-orange demi-glace, asparagus, and potatoes. I thought that everything tasted very good. The total price was $96 plus tax, 3% credit-card surcharge, and tip. read more

We had a private event for 10 people at Fig and Ash on Friday. There's a small private event room if you go all the way to the back of the restaurant and downstairs. There is also a bathroom down there. Their default event menu is family style for basically everything so we only had to pick our desserts. They changed our plates and silverware between courses. The food was pretty good! I really enjoyed the salad, carrots, bucatini, and miso. I thought the meatloaf and steak were decent. The desserts were pretty good. My only small critique is that it was awkward splitting some of the mains family style due to there being an awkward amount of some items. For example, there was 10 people but eight pieces of miso so it was a little tricky to split. read more

First time at fig & ash did not disappoint! I rarely think higher priced meals are worth it but this one was! The setting is nice - mix of people casually dressed and dressed up. Low lighting but not too low. We sat at chefs counter and could see into the kitchen which was fun. Our server and the other service staff were great! We enjoyed the crab cake with mushrooms and roasted carrots with whipped ricotta as our starters. The carrots were to die for!! We are going to try and recreate at home. My husband had the short rib and pork belly meatloaf, which he raved about! I enjoyed the soy glazed eggplant, which has edamame, farro and mixed veggies. The eggplant was super tender but I found the dish to be a bit salty. We ended with the pistachio cake which was light and tender and the orange whipped cream was so tasty. read more

This is a rare find of for an eating spot in Pittsburgh that you don't wanna miss. We wanted to celebrate our anniversary somewhere nice and didn't have any expectations and were pleasantly surprised. My husband, who's vegan had plenty of options and they went out of their way to be accommodating. It was one of the best meals we've had on this visit to Pittsburgh. We highly recommend it. The service was great and the ambience lovely and quiet perfect for a special occasion meal or just a weekday bite to eat. The food is impeccable. read more

We went on Valentine's Day. I'm a foodie and generally don't like a lot of restaurants because I figure if I can make the food just as good or better than they do then there's a problem. Although it was a pretty small menu, I managed to find a few things that I liked, and they were all excellent. I don't mind paying good money for good food. We'll be back. read more

We went to Fig & Ash for our anniversary and I'm still thinking about this meal. We both ordered the Herb Falafel and every part of that plate worked. The saffron rice, grilled zucchini, and blood orange chili glaze all came together in a way that actually felt intentional. Nothing was bland, nothing felt like filler... it was just really well done. My husband ordered the King of the Jungle and I ended up stealing a few sips. It's very pineapple forward with a nice bite at the end that keeps it from being too sweet. It paired perfectly with the food. Chef Cory was incredible. Not only clearly talented, but also kind, funny, and genuinely present. You can tell he cares about what he's creating and about the people he's serving. The staff as a whole were warm and welcoming, and made the night feel special from start to finish. It was the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary and we will absolutely be back read more

I rarely rave about service first, but to get out of the way, the staff at Fig and Ash were very helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. There's small, medium, and large plates so can be overwhelming to decide which ones to get. For type of cuisine, think "New American" / farm-to-table vibes. The inside is super charming modern decor, with an area where you can sit in of the kitchen and watch the cooks through glass (we did not). The aromas from the kitchen were nice and smoky. My friend and I started off with small plates. The Heirloom carrots had a delicious nutty / savory flavor and were served on top of the ricotta cheese. The Cajun shrimp skillet had quite a bit of spice to it, and the pimento cheese lumps in it were different but they worked. Our large plate was the halibut with onion risotto and asparagus. The risotto was the most flavorful, with a rich caramelized-onion taste. The halibut was flaky and tender with a more subtle taste. Portion sizes were just enough for what we needed. Stellar restaurant and hard to overstate the food quality here. Loved it and will be back. read more

The service was absolutely impeccable at fig and ash. The servers were constantly checking in, filling waters, and bringing food. Overall, I found it incredibly pricey for the portions. We had 2 appetizers with no meat and they were over $15 each. The menu isn't interesting enough for me to want to return for the price point. read more

Fig & Ash Wood Fire Kitchen - Braised beef short rib - New American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

A sleek and modern restaurant with a mix of woods, metals, and botanicals. There is a small chef's counter and a four season patio as well. Chef Cory Hughes excels with his wood-fired meals. The bar has a nice selection of cocktails and mocktails. My favorite drink is "Are Hue Kidding Me?" It's rose' (sparkling), lemon, lavender, pea flower, elderflower, and vodka. Beautiful to look at and refreshing to drink. Here are my favorite dinner menu items: Heirloom carrots with whipped ricotta Pork chop served with roasted potatoes and cabbage Seasonal dessert favorite: Pumpkin Pot de Crème-pretzel with cinnamon and sugar, and maple mascarpone Elevated, and I mean elevated, wood-fired, Americana classics all ready to get in your belly. read more

We had my birthday dinner here last night and it was amazing! The service was fantastic-- it truly felt like a special occasion with extra touches like giving us new silverware between courses. The food was so good. We had the beet salad and the carrots with ricotta as appetizers. The carrots were our favorite as the beet salad dressing was a bit too acidic for our tastes. We had the lamb terrine as a mid course appetizer and it was melt in your mouth delicious with warm indian spices. Our dinners were the duck and the short rib. Both were fantastic but I liked the flavors in the short rib more as I don't love an orange flavor that was in the sauce with the duck. For dessert we had the fig bread pudding which had some sort of strawberry ice cream on top and we also had the kahlua fudge brownie. Personally I liked the bread pudding better. The brownie was a bit salty and I didn't taste much kahlua. Overall a great night and we will be back! read more

OMG! Seriously... OMG.. I had wanted to try this place since I moved here and finally managed to get in and it was AMAZING! We sat at the chefs counter and he came out to meet and great which was just fun. They had some really creative cocktails and mocktails, we tried both. We had apps, we had dinner and we had dessert. Don't think I'd be able to walk out of there, lol. They have season menus and everything on them always sounds so good and everything we had was fantastic. Recommend, recommend, recommend. read more

Friends Who Drink Coffee A recent evening at Fig & Ash reminded me why dining out can still feel special when a restaurant gets the details right. From the moment we sat down, the presentation of the dishes was out of sight--every plate looked thoughtfully composed and full of personality. My son and I even got a kick out of the Beetlejuice-themed bathroom stalls, and the servers rocking lumberjack flannels gave the place a relaxed character that somehow still matched the refined, creative menu. The hospitality matched the fine cuisine perfectly. The cornbread was absolutely to die for, and the short rib & pork belly meatloaf, finished with a bold horseradish sauce, was so good it even made it down my son's throat--and he's pickier than I am. That alone says a lot. When we mentioned who was in our group and the people we knew, Corey took the time to send out a round of mocktails so we could raise a toast together. That kind of thoughtful gesture doesn't go unnoticed. The heated outdoor seating made the space comfortable even on a cooler night. One moment that truly stood out was when our entrées were delivered--a team brought them out and placed all four plates in front of us at the exact same time. It was a small but impressive detail that showed how much pride the staff takes in service. As I sat there enjoying the meal, I noticed the owner/chef making his way around the dining room, introducing himself and checking in with each table. That personal touch gave this modern eatery an old-school hospitality feel that's becoming rare. The new energy and lighting throughout the space are fantastic. Pricing felt fair and well balanced, portions were satisfying without being overdone, and the crowd was a refreshing mix of people from all walks of life. Most of all, I want to extend my congratulations and gratitude to the entire Fig & Ash team. It's clear there's passion behind what's happening here--from the kitchen to the service floor. Pittsburgh is lucky to have a place delivering this level of creativity, hospitality, and genuine warmth. Looking forward to the next visit. read more

This was by far the best place to eat and so happy the locals gave us this recommendation. I had the meatloaf (absolutely the best!) and my husband had the pork chop. The presentation was great and the taste was wonderful. The best part of the night was the service!! We had a reservation and were seated immediately. When one of us went to the restroom, a server stopped to fold our cloth napkin. The memories we will take from this dining experience will hopefully get us back here on an other trip from Florida. Highly recommend!! read more

Very nice spot for dinner! We didn't have reservations so we sat at the bar and enjoyed chatting with the bar tender. The restaurant was busy but not too loud. Drinks were absolutely delicious and well-balanced. The Barrel o' Monkeys drink even came with a little monkey hanging off the side! So fun. The food was good but not quite perfect - the pork belly burnt ends had good flavor but were dry, and my halibut entree was a bit too salty. The short rib meatloaf was the winner! As a visitor from out of state, I enjoyed my meal but wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again since there are lots of other interesting restaurants in the area. read more

Ambience was good and cozy. Me and one other person shared the Carrot starter plate which was enough and was the highlight of the meal! It was delicious. We ordered the Picanha plate to share and it was not Brazilian-style in cut or fat content. It's just a nicely done steak. They cook it medium-rare, we asked for medium (bc preference) and it still came medium-rare. Sent it back to cook for longer and it was still medium-rare. Disappointing. The cast iron brownie was more of a soufflé/cake and was so dry it was rock hard on the outside and was raw inside, I think the oven was too high in temp. I sent it back and they comped it. Overall good food and service, just some disappointing things this time. read more

I want to like Fig and Ash more than I actually do. I'd give it 3.5 stars! Their menu is always interesting but sometimes the execution doesn't live up to expectations. Last time I was there, I was delighted to try the mocktails on the menu! The one I got had a matcha cold foam on the top, which looked more like green mush the way it was executed. Taste wise, it didn't mesh well at all with the sickeningly sweet beverage it was paired with. Then for dinner, I got the duck confit. It was okay, but I found the gnocchi it came with to be really doughy, as if it wasn't fully cooked. My friend and the server also had a bit of tiff, which rubbed me the wrong way. The ambiance is nice though! I'm willing to give them another shot, but I just wasn't impressed. read more

Fig & Ash will always be a top 3 restaurant in pittsburgh for me! The ambiance, the service, the quality of food and presentation. The menu did lack a chicken dish but I am a sucker for a plate full of mushrooms! I appreciate their dedication to serving local when and where possible and rotate their menu with the seasons. I chose fig and ash for my birthday dinner this year and my husband already can't wait to return. read more

Wonderful upscale restaurant in the North Side! We sat at the chef's counter, which was great to get an inside view into the kitchen. Everyone on the staff was very accommodating, considerate to allergies, and wished us a happy anniversary. It was an elevated experience, but didn't make you feel stressed to be classy and sophisticated throughout the night. The rotating seasonal menu was broken out into starters, mids, and large entrees. I ordered the Short Rib and Pork Belly Meatloaf and it was incredibly delicious! The meat was so tender, it basically melted in my mouth and had a super flavorful taste. I got the horseradish crème fraîche on the side and it was awesome too. It was nice to dip the meatloaf in to give it a different flavor every once and awhile, and wasn't too overwhelming in horseradish. On the side, it came with wonderfully smooth smoked gouda mashed potatos and grilled green beans. I was pleasantly surprised how filling the dish was too. Definitely will be coming back to try more food when the menu changes throughout the year! read more

The heirloom carrots with honey whipped ricotta is fantastic, with a nice smoky char that pairs very well with the sweetness of the honey and crunchiness of marcona almond. Their seasonal butternut squash salad is also great for fall, the Brie and maple bourbon glaze excellent touches. I was not as much of a fan of their very cured coho salmon, which didn't pair as well with the jicama slaw as I had hoped, and the crab bucatini, which seemed to be relying entirely on the toppings for (some) flavor and was very overcooked. Their short rib and pork belly meatloaf is great though, very moist and flavorful. read more

Carrot appetizer(yes I said get the carrots) and meatloaf. Pencils down. Other options are solid but that is my go to meal.

I was so excited to finally dine here!! First off the vibes inside were so cute. The cocktails were so delicious, I got a bees knees and it was perfectly sweet and lemony. I've heard amazing things about the carrots so I obviously ordered that and they were really good. The have a super prominent nutty flavor which I loved and the ricotta underneath paired with it super well. Our server recommended the duck breast as one of his favorite meals on the seasonal menu so we ordered that and the short rib. Let me just say that I typically wouldn't order duck breast but it was extremely tender and the chocolate rub/glaze on it was delicious. The short rib was also unreal. Exactly what you want when you get short rib- it was beyond tender and flavorful and the potatoes underneath were sooo good. The dessert was the only thing I was disappointed with. I have a huge sweet tooth and was extremely excited to get the deconstructed pumpkin pot but it honestly just tasted like cold raw pumpkin pie filling. I really wish the dessert was better. Overall, a fabulous experience and I am glad I finally got to go! read more

My wife, daughter and I ate at Fig and Ash last night. The staff here are all amazing. They are friendly and very knowledgeable. We arrived early and sat at the bar. The bartenders were awesome. We sat for our 8 pm reservation right on time. The waiter we had was great. Everything he recommended was delicious. For apps we had the Salmon and burnt ends. The salmon was so tender and fresh. The slaw and dressing were light and citrusy. Burnt ends had a nice amount of smoke. For entrees we shared the meatloaf with Gouda mashed potatoes. Wowza, this was good. We also had the pasta carbonara. This was also very good. For dessert we had the deconstructed pumpkin pie. Also very good. I'm definitely going back to Fig and Ash next time we're in the city to try the rest of the menu. Thanks for a great night Fig and Ash Staff. read more

With rumors of a potential Michelin rating we went to try Fig and Ash for my birthday. It was an overall terrible experience. The carrots and pork chop were recommended from the server, so I ordered both. The carrots were good, but nothing too special. The pork chop was not good. Actually it was bad. It was too fatty of a cut and it was sitting on top of a scoop of chili. It was unexpected and it did not work. The spring on the clothes pin holding my drink garnish broke and went somewhere. I was scared it went into my food, but I never found it. It was weird that no one on staff came to see why I was combing through my chili and holding my glass up to the light. The worst part of the meal was dessert. While eating it, we found a piece of plastic in the toffee pudding. When my husband picked up the plastic with the spoon to show a staff member, he told us put it down, took it and brought us a new one. No one apologized. No one came over. He just dropped off a replacement. I am very disappointed by Fig and Ash's service and food. read more

Really nice, comfortable space with a nice range of good food options. The staff were all fantastic, and the food was well presented. Most of the vegetable-centric options were in the small plates section of the menu, but that worked for me. Just note that the small plates aren't actually all that small: I ordered two, and probably only needed one. My biggest complaint was the general noise level: it's a relatively small place packed with people, so it was somewhat difficult to engage in conversation. My voice was pretty scratchy by the end of the night. In terms of the food, I appreciated the number of vegetable-centric dishes. The ancient grain salad was exactly what I wanted it to be, with a reasonable portion and several different layers of flavor and texture. The roasted cauliflower dish was only very lightly roasted, which was fine but it felt like a more significant roast would have enhanced the experience. A slightly heavier hand with the spiced yogurt and chimicurri could have helped as well. Still a great place, but a step back from life-changing experience. The beverage list was also nice, with several different local beers representing a few different styles. It wasn't exactly a long beer list, but I'm all for a smaller number of fresher kegs, if that what makes sense for the restaurant. read more

Let me start by saying I give this place 4.5 stars. I went here with my girlfriends to celebrate a friend's birthday. I had been once before, but this was a first time for my two friends right off the bat. They absolutely love the entire atmosphere inside. It has such a cool and trendy vibe, but also a feeling of warm and cozy. Our server was so incredibly personable. He knew we were there for her birthday and wished my friend happy birthday immediately. He also helped guide us in our menu selections. My two friends put a bottle of wine, and I went with the nutty Professor cocktail, which is their version of an old-fashioned. It was absolutely delicious and came with a peanut butter brittle stuck to the side of the glass. For our appetizers, we did the carrots, brussels sprouts and crabcake. Each one was better than the next. They are known for their carrots and as someone who is not a big cooked carrots fan, I absolutely loved them. I went with the tomato pesto spaghetti with grilled shrimp for my entrée. They make all of their pastas in house, and you can definitely tell based on the taste and texture. One of my friends had the Gemelli pasta and the other one had the meatloaf. The meatloaf is another signature dish. My entree was just okay but I think the gemelli pasta and the meatloaf were top notch. Since we were celebrating our birthday, we went all in for desserts. We tried the olive oil cake and the cast iron skillet. Kahlúa brownie Alamode. They were both exceptional. This is a pricier place, but it is a great restaurant for celebrating a special occasion! read more

Wow! What a place. I've been dying to come here for some time now and so glad I finally made reservations and went. From the moment you sat down the start was super friendly and attentive (literally never let me water glass go below half empty lol). The cocktails were delicious, super well balanced. My friend had the mocktail and said it was great too! We decided to split a few dishes and I'm happy we did so I could try a bunch of their plates. We started off with the heirloom carrots, one of their staples and that was great. The whipped ricotta was delicious. The bone marrow mid course place was huge and super filling. Super tasty with the bacon and onion jam and shishito peppers. The gemelli made with local mushrooms, cream sauce and a poached egg was a showstopper. All these dishes were amazing and I'm already planning my next trip back. read more

It was just okay i definitely had higher expectations given the prices. The service was great at times maybe overbearing, but the food was what lacked the wow factor. Nothing was bad, but everything was warm/getting cold and tasted like it needed salt/seasoning. The small plates are pricy for how small they are. The large plate we shared was probably the best thing we had there, the pork chop was cooked perfectly not dry at all and came with a tasty sauce. Overall I was not blown away by anything and just don't feel the need to come back for the food. I was expecting it to be on the same level as The Vandal, Pusadees, or Fet-Fisk, and it definitely was not. read more

Fig & Ash Wood Fire Kitchen - Risotto and bolognese - New American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I'd rate Fig & Ash four and a half stars. We walked in as soon as they opened for dinner on Saturday at 5 pm and were able to grab a couple of the eight bar seats available for walk-ins. Reservations are recommended. Full bar that focuses on craft cocktails. They have four craft beers on draft. Big selection of whiskeys with some great picks; however, the whiskeys are pricey with some pours going for 50% and more of full bottle costs. The bartenders were very knowledgeable and engaging. I shared a milky mezcal cocktail with my wife. It was smokey and fit in perfectly for the fall. For food, we started with roasted carrots and the brussel sprouts. The carrots had a firm yet tender texture. They were served over ricotta adding a creaminess to the dish. The brussel sprouts were served with blue cheese and two different sauces. They came out perfectly crispy with a nice char. The blue cheese wasn't too pronounced in the dish which I appreciated. The highlight of the dish were the two sauces. One was a curry aioli and the other was a cherry gastrique. Together, they formed a sweet and Smokey balance reminiscent of a high quality BBQ sauce. For dessert, we shared the cast iron brownie. Crispy on the outside with a very moist interior. Pretty balanced on the spectrum from cakey to fudgy. Pacing of the food was nice. The kitchen was surrounded in glass, so you could see the chefs in action. There were two single occupancy restrooms; the one I used was handicap accessible. read more

We came here for the first time for a date night. We've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got to! The ambiance is wonderful! The service was attentive and quick but not too fast that we felt rushed. We ordered some cocktails and they were fabulous and creative! We ordered the mushroom Bruschetta and cauliflower with ramp Chimichurri. Both were excellent and fantastic starters to share. For our mains we ordered the meatloaf and lamb. Both dishes were delicious but the meatloaf was truly a standout! We finished off dinner with the brownie and ice cream. The brownie was amazing! Warm and perfectly gooey. The best way to end off a date night! We will definitely be back and hope to bring some friends and family! read more

The most impeccable service yet!!! The customer service is phenomenal. We had a designated waitress who took our order but also had people who changed our silverware as soon as we were done a course and someone else who regularly filled our waters. At one point, my boyfriend went to the bathroom and someone came to the table just to fold his napkin and arrange his silverware. The was also good. Highly recommend the carrots with ricotta and the whole prawns with grits. Beware....the drinks are strong. read more

I've been to Fig & Ash a few times and have always had great experiences. The food is always delicious & they have great cocktails. This is a great spot for sharing many appetizers. Some dishes I've had in the past are the heirloom carrots (always a favorite), fig & burrata salad, mussels and polenta. In my most recent visit, we had to make our reservation in the outdoor (claims to be four season) seating. It was about 45 degrees outside & of course, we were expecting to be a little chilly but nothing like this. It was SO cold. I wouldn't be so bothered by it if they didn't claim for it to be four season seating. We asked our server if they could turn on the fireplace that was next to us but he said he didn't know how and that was the end of it. The food was also not as great as I have had in the past. We ordered the roasted pear and it was very bland and cold. The carrots & broccolini were very good. My husband and I also split the salmon entree and it was delicious. Our friends ordered the meatloaf and it was very, very fatty. The desserts we ordered were quite good - the cast iron cookie and carrot cake. We got the smores but I could've done without it, not really what I was expecting. Overall I'm just hoping this was an off night with the food as I've definitely had better experiences there. And now I know not to book the outdoor seating, regardless if it's "four seasons!" read more

I came here recently for a business dinner in their downstairs banquet room. What a wonderful experience! When we arrived, we were greeted by friendly staff member, who showed us to the space. The seating and table were very comfortable, and the space itself is very private, with easy access to restrooms downstairs, making this a very practical place to host a banquet of this sort - 10 to 15 people. The beverage menu is excellent, and they have an exquisite assortment of craft cocktails, spirits, and non-alcoholic cocktail choices. Given that it was a work night, I had the non-alcoholic "This Is Fine" cocktail, which was delicious - it's based on Earl Grey, tea, bitters, spiced saline, and sherry vinegar syrup, presented in a smoked glass with a large square ice cube. It was wonderful. As you might imagine, the real star of the show is their menu we dined family style, which was an excellent way to sample many of their delicious dishes : the apple and beet salad, the superb, heirloom, carrots, the delicious mushroom, and gemelli pasta, the astounding confit pork, shank, and the mouth watering pork belly, meatloaf, were the selections of the night. Honestly, I would have a very hard time picking just one dish after trying all of these delicious ones family style. Each of them was flavorful and well prepared, although I tend to prefer my pasta a little less "al dente" than most people. I'm sure that had. I've been ordering this for just myself, establishment would have been very accommodating, since their staff are so friendly and accommodating. I don't usually venture to the North Shore often, but this place has changed my mind, and I shall be bringing my family here very soon to enjoy their hospitality and food once more. Will definitely be back!!! read more

So many folks told me to try Fig and Ash, and I went this summer (sorry, for the late review). It was worth the hype! I loved sitting outside on their cozy patio with some friends. Inside had a fun modern vibe! Now for the food - we tried a watermelon salad, a beet salad, lobster pasta, and carrots. The veggie dishes were fresh, light, and big flavor. I personally loved the beets. The roasted carrots were good, but not Poulet Bleu or Meat and Potatoes-level good. Lobster pasta was fantastic. This would be a great entree. My main meal was the meatloaf, and it was phenomenal. Juicy, soft, and packed with flavor. I also loved the homemade ketchup (bold move considering, you know, Pittsburgh). I would definitely order this again. Menus are seasonal, so a return is necessary! Great drink menu, too! read more
