Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Chef/Owner John Carver

From the OpenTable editors: It can take months to get into Chef John Carver’s wildly popular Italian restaurant, where there’s a custom woodfired grill at the heart of the industrial space. But it’s worth the wait for fresh pasta and epic steaks, like the cappelletti “bishop’s hats” stuffed with spinach and sauced with brown butter, alongside a 50-day dry-aged porterhouse “la Fiorentina.” Don’t miss the charred veggies, like roasted vine tomatoes with creamy burrata, and wash it all down with a house negroni.

    Had an amazing birthday dinner at Red Ash. They immediately made note of the special occasion with a sweet, personalized card and made reference to the occasion throughout the meal culminating with a delicious dessert (on the house) to finish. Great service, great food, great experience all around.

    Can't miss: the beef filet, tagliolini with fresh blue crab & a bottle of the Caymus Malbec. 10/10.

    This was our first time back since they had the kitchen fire. It's the same great place, with an improved ventilation system and that delicious menu. Portions here are very big, so you won't be able to try everything in one visit. Do save room for the tiramisu, however.

    The food was fantastic as always. The one major complaint we had was that it was absolutely freezing cold in the restaurant. My wife and daughter were uncomfortably cold during our meal. The service was good overall, but not outstanding as we have experienced in the past. It was hard to keep our waters refilled, and after we paid, our server disappeared, which made it frustratingly difficult to get someone to box up the remainder of our dessert for us to take home. I finally had to get up and approach another server to get assistance.
