   Quality ingredients. Great Service! I would definitely return. The Kale/Butternut Squash salad was divine. I added Salmon and I was not disappointed. I also had the Brownie Sundae for dessert—Amazing!

   1st time visiting and was happily surprised. Food was very, very good! I had the short rib and my wife had the Branzino. Both were perfectly cooked and so tasty. The restaurant was full so reservations are a must. Will definitely eat here again.

   The restaurant was relatively empty except for a few tables and a number of people on the bar area. The waitress provided us with ice water and took our beverage order. We requested a small Caesar salad and after eating that we ordered our entree. I ordered the scallops and risotto and my wife the meat loaf. Both meals were excellent and served hot. My wine (Chardonnay) was chilled and was an ample pour. Overall the meal and environment is such that I will be back. A great place for foodies and offering a casual atmosphere.

   We had a shrimp appetizer. It was forgettable for a couple reasons. First, the shrimp was way overcooked, super tough/chewy. Second and more importantly there were significant amounts of inedible lemon and lime peels and whole star anise. I’ve never seen so much inedible components on an appetizer We didn’t really enjoy most of our food. The first time we ever we enjoyed everything. The last couple times were unfortunately not repeating. I think that was our last trip here

   Yikes, sounds like you think we might have got a little too creative with the shrimp appetizer. Overcooked shrimp? Not our proudest moment. We DO however try to always make it right - did you reach out to a manager? And as for the inedible components—you're right, we do like to keep things fancy with star anise and citrus peels, but we promise they’re just there for flavor profile... It's all about presentation. ;) If you'd like a refund for the shrimp, we’d be happy to make that right for you! But, Tim… never coming back over some shrimp and fancy lemon peels? Ouch, that one stings! Don’t let one little misstep ruin all the good times could have together. But we also respect your decision to move on - we just wish it didn't hav to end like this. <3 Your friends at Ashling
