Editorial Review for Ashmont Grill – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Chris Douglass, chef-owner of the South End's beloved Icarus, has opened the Ashmont Grill near lower Dorchester Avenue. Morning and afternoon menus include affordable, upscale comfort fare like breakfast burritos and house-cured pastrami Reubens. Area singles fill a modern bar and nibble on grilled pizzas, while dinnertime patrons enjoy entrees--none of which top $20--like St. Louis-style BBQ pork ribs and wild mushroom lasagna.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

the mussels are fantastic. great with a coupla glasses of wine... love this welcoming and comfortable place! can't wait until the weather permits us to dine outside on the patio. little know fact: the tables and bar top were created by a local artisan who crafted them from cherry trees harvested in the neighborhood. Insider Parking Tip: use the All Saints church parking lot. Or drive up Talbot and turn left onto Alban, or Welles to Ocean Street, to park on Ashmont, resident parking ends at 6 PM. And same on the other side of Peabody Sq, go past the clock and turn right on Carruth, then right on any side street.

Pros: easy to get to by T - at Ashmont Red Line station

Cons: parking, but I left you some good suggestions

I've been for brunch and dinner and thoroughly enjoyed it both times. I'm so happy to have a place with great food for the parents and the kids (i.e. we both enjoyed the mac and cheese). The music (80s R&B the night I was there) was great; decor relaxed and service always with a smile. Looking forward to going to the Monday night wine tasting. If you live in Dorchester and haven't checked it out yet...go....now!

Pros: Neighborhood spot; great food & service

Cons: limted restaurant parking, but street parking usually ok
