🌹✨ Chicago | Maple & Ash — A Full-Vibe Dining Experience!

Celebrated my bestie’s birthday at Maple & Ash 🎉—this place absolutely oozes atmosphere! One super cute detail: they give you a customized menu with the birthday person’s name printed on it, saying: “Happy F*@king Birthday [Name]” 🎂🔥 ⚠️ Just a heads-up: outside cakes are not allowed. 🍸 Appetizers Complimentary chips + caviar, and a welcome cocktail for everyone (non-alcoholic version available too!) 🥂 🦑 Wood-Fired Spanish Octopus The octopus was okay, but the potatoes underneath were surprisingly amazing! 🍁 Maple Glazed Foie Gras The foie gras was a bit too rich for my taste, but the crispy zucchini? Absolutely delicious! 🥩 Wagyu Beef Carpaccio My friends loved it! Since I don’t eat raw food, I’ll sit this one out 😉 🦞 Fire-Roasted Seafood Tower (Baller) A massive tower for five with shrimp, scallops, oysters, lobster, clams… but honestly? A bit overpriced for what you get. 🍖 45-DAY DRY-AGED TOMAHAWK Huge portion! Perfect for sharing among five. Flavor was on point 👌 🐑 Elysian Fields Lamb Chops My friend said: “I could make better lamb chops at home.” 😅 🥬 Roasted Asparagus The asparagus? Absolutely incredible! A must-order. 🌽 Sweet Corn Just okay, nothing special. 💵 Average per person: around $200 🚗 Parking: Highly recommend using SpotHero to find nearby parking—cheap and convenient!
