We had diner at Mas which was a fantastic experience. Two great guys who follow their passion and make amazing food. All dishes were special, innovative and really good. We took the 6 course menu (and should have should have taken the 10 course menu...).

Public House

Reviewed By JoAnn B

Best food and service experience of my time in Ashland. Creative menu, beautifully presented and described, Michael, our server, was helpful, understood the menu and encouraged me to try a wine very different from my usual taste. He was absolutely correct! Since we had theater tickets, we left just as the musicians were starting but wish we could have stayed. Next time - Ashland; Public House again, for sure!

This is a typical sushi restaurant (that's intended as neither a good nor a bad title). I always found the indoor portion a bit dark, but really like the outside balcony overlooking the creek. This is down a level from the street, but there is an elevator for those who don't like stairs. We eat here often when in Ashland.

Umami Sushi & Asian Cuisine

Reviewed By Maryann L

Umami is perfect for dining before going to the theater. The Elizabethan theater is just steps away. Our service was timely and pleasant. Thank you, Rebecca. The sushi samplers were delicious and portions were generous. Our samplers went well with a glass of chardonnay.

Alchemy Restaurant and Bar

With one night in Ashland we spent some time reviewing a nice place to have a meal and bottle of wine and selected Alchemy. Welcome was nice but the service was very poor. We were served by someone (blonde lady) who had very little interest in or understanding of the menu. Simple questions couldn’t be answered (she didn’t even know the WiFi password) and nobody was on hand to answer any questions on the wine. The food was decent, I feel bad that the kitchen is let down by such bad service. Garbage was dragged through the restaurant while we were eating, staff were shouting across the restaurant at each other. Just not an atmosphere befitting of the price tag. After dinner we fancied a desert, there was no desert menu and the waitress didn’t know what was on offer.As soon as we managed to get a desert we were being ushered out of the restaurant (it was only 9.30pm at this point, there was at least 1 other couple and we had half a bottle of wine left to drink). Then the waitress’ boyfriend arrived and she was at the bar like a guest, it was impossible to get her attention. When the cheque arrived, despite the above experience I left a 16% gratuity (feeling that the kitchen deserved some credit) on a large bill and heard the staff call out that we were stingy! The waitress told the lady at the bar “those two at the back are stingy” I was absolutely gobsmacked at the attitude and impression that they had done a good job. I regret leaving so much. I wanted to speak to someone about my experience but by 10pm there was no one else on the premises to speak to. Just a very disappointing experience, very overpriced, our waitress just shouldn’t be in the service industry.

We’ve been in mourning since the iconic Chateaulin closed down a few years ago. Not to worry-there’s a fantastic, beautiful place in town, complete with not only a chef from Chateaulin, but also the amazing maitre’d! We ordered 4 starters and 3 mains, all fantastic Among the starters, the maitake buns, harissa cauliflower, little gem salad, and very fresh burrata and tomato were great. On the mains, the duck leg, local lamb t-bone and burger with special fries also great. And the bananas foster for dessert! Just a real fine meal between plays. It’s only a half mile to the theatres. Oh I forgot to mention very creative cocktails! Thank you for the wonderful comments!
