I recently ate at the Ashmont Grill for the first time, though I live in Milton and had been hearing about it for years. I was very impressed with the high quality of the food, the overall atmosphere of the place, and the very pleasant, professional, and quite attentive staff. The space is small, though I believe it does expand... More

We were in Boston for a Medical Visit. Our daughter, who lives there, picked us up and drove us to the Ashmont Grill for dinner. This is always a winner for us. Excellent service and excellent quality of food and choices on their menu. It's nice to have such a 'friendly' place when we go to Boston.

I found this restaurant in a local publication, read the reviews and chose to go here for dinner while visiting Boston. The taxi ride was a little longer than expected and we traveled through some areas that made me nervous given there were run down shops, bars on the windows, etc. I don't know the area well so I wasn't...

This is a gem in Dorchester! Amazing back patio in the summer. Always crowded on weekends and trivia night. The menu changes over seasonally, and is not too small, but not too big either. We LOVE this spot. The sticky toffee pudding for dessert is to die for! :)

We recently moved to the building immediately behind the Grill and of course checked it out a few times for dinner and brunch. Every experience has been warm and comfortable, with good food in a great atmosphere. The food is great, portions are filling and the price is more or less what you expect for something like this. For us... More

We had been planning to visit Ashmont Grill for a long time, based on reputation, and finally got around to it. It was definitely worth the trip and I would go again. We had the charcuterie appetizer, which had an excellent selection of meats and cheeses and was a generous portion for two. I had a nightly special, venison osso... More

Brought a family member visiting from out of town to the Ashmont Grill, and it was great. Started with the Berry Salad; strawberries, blueberries, goat cheese, arugula and a vinaigrette - really good. Swordfish dinner special was so moist and tasty, and our guest enjoyed the grilled salmon. Finished the meal with the Plum and Peach Crisp and ice cream.... More

This spot is directly across from the Ashmont T stop on the redline. There is street parking fairly easy enough. The decor is very relaxing, the outdoor space is the choice-- a kind of oasis in the city. The food is all lovely--a good variety made with high grade ingredients. There are intriging specials everyday and nice wine list and... More

Went to Ashmont Grill to meet up with a few people for drinks. I have heard a lot of reviews of the Ashmont Grill as being fantastic. Overall it was good, but nothing to rave over and a bit pricey. The dollar shrimp special app was good. I also had the skirt steak, it was a bit undercooked for my... More
