Hush Public House

I have loved this place way before Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives (Hush is none of these) featured them on the show. A good friend told me about Hush a few years ago and as a guy who grew up in Skokie, I was all in when I saw their de-constructed Italian Beef. I have to admit, I ordered this at my first several visits and did not explore the other menu items. The giardiniera is the bomb!A couple times my wife and I did not make reservations (they have since expanded since my first visits) and we sat at the bar. If you are a foodie and like to cook, sit at the bar and watch these guys work their magic. It is a show of efficiency and love of presentation. It's also a great way to see what looks good and order from there. Of course, everything looks great. The pasta? Next time I am ordering that! The Steak Frites is great and can be shared as it is a big cut of meat and the frites are awesome. Duck Fried Rice?? DO NOT pass this up and it is also shareable for the table. It is so good, I came in once and just ordered the rice and their BBQ Bourbon and I left a happy man...The service is great and friendly. Chris, one of the chefs, answered all my "What's that?" questions and suggested I order off menu- a combo of the Italian Beef over their frites. WOW! I am forever indebted...

I was so excited to finally try Hush Public House. I went here for restaurant week. They were not busy as they had just opened, but shortly after there was a nice crowd. Our server was Karina, she was awesome. She provided great service, she answered questions and gave recommendations. I ordered from the restaurant week menu which was their Crudo (app), duck fried rice (entree) and the chocolate bodino (dessert). One thing I can say I appreciate about this establishment is their portion size. Everything I ordered was a nice portion. The Crudo was good, you definitely need to add salt just to enhance the flavors of everything. The duck fried rice was really good, especially with the chili oil and the chocolate bodino was good as well. For the next visit, I'm looking forward to trying their Italian beef entree.

I was visiting Scottsdale on business and stumbled upon Hush. Their storefront is unassuming, located in a strip mall, and from the outside doesn't look like much. But looks can be deceiving, and once you step inside you see that Hush is the most vibrant, bustling restaurant, with a super cool vibe that's only surpassed by how ridiculously friendly their staff is. The place was packed the night we visited, but we had a reservation and they seated us right away. Our server recommended we try several dishes and eat family style so we could taste a few things, and we followed her advice, ordering the shrimp, the tuna tartare, the rigatoni, and (of course) the crab hush puppies. The food was fan-freaking-tastic...packed with flavor, served at the right temp, and just delicious. They brought us an "extra" cauliflower appetizer, and it was amazing. My whole party om-nommed every single bite we took. I live in Nashville. Please open one there.

We checked this place out for a date night on Saturday and was pleasantly surprised with the experience. By far the best thing on the menu are their house fries with aïoli sauce, which were light, crispy, perfectly seasoned. I am sad that the pasta menu continues to rotate so we weren't able to try the ragu pasta we had previously seen on their Instagram page. I do appreciate how quick and attentive the service was, all the suggestions from the bartender, the overall ambience of the restaurant. They also have a craft cocktail and wine selection. Perfect for first dates or a weekend out if you're looking for something more classy and upscale.

Underwhelming. Nice lively atmosphere but the food was not worth the cost. The ahi was extremely salty (returned it). The crab hush puppies were nice and crispy but little to no crab taste. The duck fried rice was flavorful.

I love this place! Amazing food and great service. I've been here twice and the experience gets better each time. I had some duck fried rice, fries, grilled oysters, the Halibot, and some hush puppies. AMAZING

I looked up top restaurants in Phoenix area and Hush was highly recommended!The place is pretty discreet in a shopping center- you wouldn't suspect there is a bustling restaurant inside!We were a party of 6 and we all enjoyed our dishes. Standout for me was the french fries! Yep! They mash the potatoes up and then make them into fries, it is so pillowy and delicious inside because of that!! Still dreaming of them. The crab hush puppies were delish and crispy- a must share with a group. Also, that date cake is to die for. I am not huge into desserts but this was a winner across everyone at the dining table. Don't skimp on getting dessert!Overall, a great place to come if you are in the area and want a more upscale place to dine.

I think 4.5 is right. The italian beef w oxtail definitely has sandwich vibes but also sort of french onion soup vibes. Was my favorite thing. Really liked the crispy cauliflower along with the lamb neck that came in the eggplant. Thought the louie salad was fine and the duck fried rice had a ton of flavor. Date cake very good way to end the meal. Very good service. Pacing was a bit fast.

We ordered the steak Frites and Italian Beef! Everything was very very salty and all reviews we have read since visiting say the same thing! Service was great! Apps were good too but oh boy very disappointing to have the food be so salty! Concern that everyone has the same comments you would think some typeOf adjustment would be made! Good luck!

Sadly disappointed. Their Italian beef which they are known for was VERY average. Very salty and tooo much bread. Only my opinion. Service was great
