   The staff was very helpful in understanding menu and drink options. The pork loin was phenomenal, but chicken was underwhelming and overpriced. Very cool drink options from around the world (both beer and wine).

   Food was good, but not enough of a selection. Very limited menu. Beautiful setting and very nice service.

   I wish they have actual coffee machine. Everything else is perfect, such a small lovely place which suits the area charm. The food is so good! I wasnt expecting much and their food is beyond so many other restaurants in dc!

   This was the most fantastic dining experience I've had in years!!!!! If 10 stars is the top rating this is 100 stars. The presentation of our meal was outstanding with taste being perfection. If you haven't been here, you MUST!!

   Exceptional experience! Kirsten, Ravi, and Halle were very welcoming, knowledgeable, and professional. The food prepared by Chef Jonathan was superb. Very impressed with the wine portfolio and the suggestions made by Ravi—-they have a large selection from the cellar - allow them to make a recommendation to compliment your meal and you’ll be impressed.

    The Ashby offers a fine dining experience in a beautiful rural Virginia setting, easily on a par with the Inn at Little Washington, but less pretentious!

    We dine in the restaurant that is part of the Ashby Inn. We made a reservation about a week in advance. All members of the service staff were friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. We would go there again and would certainly recommend the Ashly Inn to a friend.

    It was my girlfriends first time at the Ashby Inn and Rava and his staff outdid themselves. Max our waiter was absolutely fantastic and the food was just awesome. We enjoyed our dinner so much that we decided to get a room at the Inn and it and breakfast was superb.

    We really enjoyed brunch at Ashby Inn. My butternut squash soup and duck salad were both excellent! The bonus bread (fancy freshly made "pretzel") was worth going back for by itself. Kudos to the pastry chef/baker. Sparkling and cocktails were delightful. Rusty and Sarah need a big shout out for the best service we've had at any restaurant in many moons. Keep up the good work, we'll definitely be back.

    The food and staff were high above my expectations. If I could give more than 5 Stars, I would. The entire staff, Support, Wait and Sommelier, works together to make each guest feel special. And our Brunch was truly incredible. I left feeling like I had just finished Thanksgiving dinner!

    So disappointed in our visit. Walked into restaurant and no one was to be found except for seated guests in two rooms. After about five minutes, our polite host/server arrived. We were seated immediately and offered water. "Bread" arrived and while it was welcome, the basket was four muffins, two corn bread and two banana nut. Lovely for breakfast, but wrong for lunch. The killer for us was that our food was so off and different than what we had expected, it ruined our trip from DC to Paris. The two soups we started with were fine, not exceptional in any way. One of use ordered a sandwich (BLC) and the other ordered the schnitzel. Sandwich fine with excellent fries. Schnitzel was inedible -- limp, cold, tough and totally without flavor. Served over very mustardy, hot potato salad. Thank heaven for the fresh salad served on the plate. When the server finally inquired about our lunch and was told about the schnitzel, he was most apologetic and ultimately removed the item from our bill. He also offered that the executive chef was on vacation. Ugh! Don't know if we will venture back for a second outing.

    Wow! This dinner was so very worth the wait - every time I check they are booking 2 months out - and I know this was the best meal my husband and I have ever had. The plating was beautiful with every course while the temperatures and flavors were perfect as well! Duck fat muffins = amazing! Excellent dining experience and highly recommended!

    My husband and I have been going to the Ashby Inn nearly every year for the past 30 years. We love going in late summer to enjoy the outdoor air and beautiful views. Last night we had a lovely server who was pleasant and professional and knowledgeable without hovering. We will continue to go back every year with pleasure and anticipation.

    Beef cooked delightfully. Soups and potato garnishes have a flowing smoothie as to them. Some sauces could do with less reduction to have more subtle flavors, particularly those with sweet notes in them. Breakfasts are reliably prepared no matter what the selection and speak to how eggs, pastry, potatoes, and meats should be respected and served.

    This was our 1st visit & it will not be our last. Next time we'll definitely bring friends. Our salad, appetizer & entrees were simply amazing. I don't write reviews but couldn't help myself this time. My wife & I shared the salmon & filet for our entree. They both were so full of flavor I couldn't do it just by trying to describe them. Just try this place & you'll definitely get the rewards for choosing it. You'll see what I mean when you go.
