Admittedly I am very picky when I eat out and hesitate to try new places for fear of disappointment. This place, though there was one element which needs improvement genuinely shocked me.

Starters: I hope the GM reads this cause asking one person to answer the phones/take online orders and in person orders is ridiculous which resulted a wait time which normally would push me away. But, I was very impressed by the atmosphere and though they are outdoor seating ONLY, the heaters provide are more than efficient on a cold Ashland day.

I closely watched the chefs as they ran a very well put together kitchen as we got our food in ten minutes. It was busy, with in person and online orders which suggests the bearded chef is the only one in Ashland I have witnessed can prioritize prioritize.

The food was INCREDIBLE. I really wanted to take pics but I was so excited to dig in especially after asking for extra pickles and getting almost a whole jar!!!!!!! Somebody understands my pickle obsessions. I ordered the turkey cranberry sandwich and I was delighted! I read the low reviews stating they don’t put enough meat on it and that is somewhat true but, I felt the contrasts were perfectly balanced however the bread was a bit thick so stick with the recommendation of the (more at home bread). I have worked in many many kitchens and perfected top end burgers and was astounded they got this perfect for my partner. It was medium (without asking) and devoured in minutes.

Special note…..whoever came up with the potato salad recipe…I want to have your babies! The myriad of flavors/textures was so above and beyond even my attempts!
