Wow. We came for the distilled spirits but will return for the food. We attended a special event for Wollersheim Distillery and the food was so good. The staff was phenomenal as well. If you have a chance to check out an event do so and enjoy. This seemed to be a new place so people were still learning, but we will be back. We all have to get our start. Highly recommend.

I am writing this review in a balanced manner and with such mixed emotions. First, ASH is located in the trendy biker chic Iron Horse Hotel. The concept being that of an open wood hearth fires for cooking and an open kitchen near the hearth. The Menu lists a Wagyu beef section and a number of other notable flavors. I booked several weeks out, knowing we would be at the property and that I truly enjoy a good Wagyu. I will split my review into 2 sections the good and the bad. Let's get the bad out of the way first. When seated we immediately noticed the lack of patrons in the restaurant and that there was no one fooling over the wood fired grill. Then as we were ordering from the drink menu we were told the we had been given last seasons drink menu and those were no longer available. As I went to order my steak I was I informed that my selection Wagyu Chefs cut was no longer available and that they were moving away from Wagyu entirely. Really!!!! Take it off your menus then because patrons make Reservations based on your claims for food type and ambience. Dessert l, forget about it literally the only item was a 1/2 tiny Granny Smith apple cooked over a gas grill in the back. Nothing else at all!Now I will move on to the good. Although I could not get the foods that I wanted the items that were available were well prepared and had a wonderful taste. Unfortunately that is not enough to overcome the list of negatives with this experience. I can understand running out of a popular item. I cannot understand walking away from an entire menu section and still advertising it to attract people in. I would recommend going to the bar in the hotel next time. At least their menu is correct.

Closed even though we have a reservation. Tried calling 5x during the week to confirm the brunch buffet - never an answer. Showed up and the restaurant is closed. Brunch is now served with a very limited a la carte menu at a small cafe. No communication. At least take your restaurant off opentable if you are closed my goodness. Very average breakfast at the cafe and pricey for what it is.

This restaurant is a great option for a nice dinner, business dinner or a date. The atmosphere is "biker chic" and the service is very good. Our server was attentive, she treated us as if we were the only ones there. Dinner was really good, but it was a shame that I didn't get the full "hearth experience ". Although the kitchen is in full display so hopefully next time I will!

I went to this restaurant for brunch a year ago and it was a sit down restaurant with great food and great service. I wanted to go here again for the brunch and saw that the same menu was on open table from last time. Turns out they don't do brunch like that anymore, it is just a buffet with a bunch of bland options that costs $70 a person! Won't be coming back ever!

The food was good and our Server was great. My main reason for the 3 stars is not due to food or service. The Valet was $20.00. My problem with the valet is I found out the valet was only supposed to be $10.00. I confirmed this with the server. When I arrived valet stated system was down and they were only accepting cash. Good hustle, but the restaurant should know the subcontractors they are working with and they should be reputable to assure their customers are not being scammed.

Ash has been flying under the radar in the Milwaukee fine dining scene. BEST SCALLOPS in town with chili butter. They have a selection of Wagyu items on the menu including a hot stone for at your table seared wagyu. The cocktails were equally amazing, espresso martini was on point with real espresso. The service was attentive and we were able to watch all the cooking happening at the Chef's Table. Highly recommend!

Went to Ash for Valentine's Day with a reservation a month in advance for 7pm. The restaurant was busy but it is by no means a large place and for $80/person we expected to be treated with exceptional service. Immediately, our waiter ran out of water and then forgot to come back with more. We ordered drinks and it was 45 minutes before those came. They do a special predetermined menu on Valentine's Day with a 9 course meal. We did not leave the restaurant until 10:45... almost 4 hours for dinner which most courses were small 2 bite items followed by another 30 minutes to wait before the next. The food was fairly good and offered a variety of flavors that you do not experience often. However, that was overshadowed due to our poor service. Our waiter did not check in on us. The entire experience felt very "transactional" and not the comforting, exciting experience we expected for a fine dining restaurant at the price point. By the time we finished up, our waiter walked by and put the check on the table without saying a word. I would consider "thanks for coming, happy Valentine's Day" to be bare minimum service. But unfortunately we were not treated to our standards. We were given a 20% off coupon with the bill without any explanation, but honestly we will not be coming back.

Just don't understand the reviews! Amazing all around!!! We were the first to arrive on a Saturday night and were offered a seat at the chef's table where we watched them cook over the fire. It was a cold rainy night so the warmth was very welcome. Love the darker romantic cozy ambiance there too! The service was great and the food was better than we expected after reading reviews. We had the chicken, pork chop, potato confit, Brussels sprouts and grilled avocado. My favorites were the pork chop and grilled avocado, but all were really all were very amazing. Drinks were also great. What a wonderful evening. Rediscover this place!!! Thank you!!!

I can understand why they are only open 3 days a week now. Since the chef change, the food is not as good. The customer service is horrible. Do not I repeat, do not try to get them on the phone. They do not answer. When you are one of three tables, there is no such thing as ambiance. My understanding the Iron Horse was just auctioned off. Hope someone with some actual knowledge picks it up and brings it back. I can also tell you how horrible the hotel side is.
