Restaurants near Jugtown Museum

Ashten’s is always a favorite of mine and of course Valentine’s Day was another great experience. From the beautiful atmosphere and decor to the amazing service. Fresh, local ingredients and great selection of cocktails and wine. Highly recommend getting an appetizer, entree, and you certainly can’t skip dessert. Zarah, the pastry chef is a true magician. Overall 10/10 experience and I’ll surely be back soon!

The true test of a restaurant is what do they do when the food does not meet your expectations. My veal chop was fatty and undercooked, which I pointed out to our server. Without any urging, she insisted it be replaced with another. The second serving was perfect! Great menu, atmosphere, and service. We will gladly return again.

The food was exceptional. Our server, McKenzie was extremely personable and knowledgeable. I tried the Elk steak. It was cooked to perfection. My wife enjoyed the salmon. We expected it to be busy since it was Valentines Day. I was excited and rather lucky that I was able to get reservations a week out. The only negative issue that we experienced was our table location. We were placed right by the hostess booth which was also located extremely close to the front door and to the bar patrons. The bar crowd was rather loud and the overflow of patrons waiting for tables completely engulfed our table location. We found it difficult to enjoy our romantic evening with people standing right beside our table, with their backsides almost touching our plates!! lol. This presented an awkward feeling for us. We wanted to enjoy another glass of wine, but felt somewhat pressured to exit, due to this. Not quite the romantic setting I was looking for. Next time i will ensure that we have secured a table far away from the front door. Please note that we also understand that this day is pretty hectic in the restaurant business.

On a whim I made a reservation for a late Valentine’s Day lunch at the Green Valley Grill. The experience was exceptional from start to finish. Our food was delicious and we had a lovely bottle of French wine. We were impressed that, even with a packed house, the food came out in a timely manner and was hot and beautifully presented. Our server Zack was fantastic. He took great care of us and made helpful recommendations. All the staff we observed were professional and helped one another with food deliveries, etc. We enjoyed everything about our meal.

The food was delicious and service was A+. We will definitely eat here again when we’re in the area!
