Hook & Ladder is the unexpected steakhouse you’d never thought you’d find in the historic, original firehouse of the Washington Fire Company. This is a one-of-a-kind Skybar experience allowing guests a close view of our 149 year old firehouse, bell tower and original stained glass windows. A unique cross between a chop house and Crudo bar, Hook & Ladder features Certified A5 Japanese wagyu beef that will melt in your month. Dry aged Steak offerings including 32 days dry aged Porterhouse (28oz), 32 days aged Tomahawk Ribeye (40oz) that will taste decidedly beefy, much like a rare roast beef, while also taking on subtler hints of other delicious flavors. Crudo uses the Japanese technique of curing the fish making it more tender and flavorful. Finishing it with lime, lemon, and soy; featuring Wild King Salmon, Japanese Madai, Hamachi and more.

    We visited for our 3rd anniversary. Our server, Lindsey, was awesome and actually remembered working our wedding in that exact dining room! The food was fantastic, always seasonal and fresh.

    Pricey but excellent food. Waiter was very good but not overly friendly—took away bread and apps very fast but the main meal took a long time. Asked the restaurant for a birthday dessert and they did not do that for me.

    Excellent French Restaurant in Ambler. Located in the tastefully decorated historic Ambler Train Station. We had a wonderful evening. We started with bean soup du jour and Caesar salads that were spot on. We had Quail, Boeuf Bourguignon, and Branzino. All were perfectly prepared and incredibly delicious. We ended the meal with creme brulee and chilled soufflé deserts. Both were outstanding. The wait staff was professional and attentive. The restaurant is a BYOB, so get a couple bottles of French wine and treat yourself to a gourmet meal at the best fine dining restaurant in the area.
