I
walked
into
Maple
&
Ash
with
the
highest
of
expectations
to
celebrate
my
birthday
dinner.
The
steakhouse
glowed
with
dim
lighting
and
the
soft
flickering
of
candlelight,
giving
it
an
elegant
and
refined
feel.
The
waiter
led
us
to
our
table
where
we
were
greeted
with
a
menu
that
was
personalized
with
my
name
and
birthday
wishes.
A
small
gesture,
but
it
made
me
feel
special.
As
we
settled
in,
the
waiter
brought
out
a
handful
of
potato
chips
that
were
accompanied
by
a
French
onion
dip
and
caviar.
It
was
an
upscale
take
on
a
classic
chip
and
dip
but
with
a
little
extra
flair.
I
eagerly
scooped
up
a
chip
with
the
dip,
anticipating
the
taste
of
caviar.
Unfortunately,
the
flavor
was
lost
amidst
the
other
ingredients.
Still,
the
chips
were
complimentary,
so
I
couldn't
complain!
Next
up
were
the
appetizers,
and
I
couldn't
resist
trying
the
beef
tenderloin
steak
tartare
with
sourdough
bread.
It
was
a
perfect
blend
of
flavors
that
melted
in
my
mouth.
The
French
onion
soup
was
equally
impressive,
creamy,
tangy,
and
cheesy.
I
could
feel
my
taste
buds
doing
a
happy
dance
with
every
spoonful.
For
the
main
course,
I
ordered
the
Maple
&
Ash
Surf
&
Turf,
which
came
with
a
6
oz
filet
mignon
and
half
a
lobster.
The
filet
was
cooked
to
a
perfect
medium-rare,
but
it
wasn't
quite
as
good
as
my
homemade
steaks.
The
highlight
of
the
night
was
the
lobster
mac
and
cheese.
Initially,
we
ordered
it
without
lobster,
but
our
waiter
suggested
adding
some.
It
was
only
later
that
we
found
out
that
the
few
pieces
of
lobster
added
a
$30
charge!
Regardless,
it
was
the
best
mac
and
cheese
we
had
ever
tasted.
The
service
was
professional,
with
the
waitstaff
treating
us
like
royalty.
They
were
attentive
and
informative,
making
the
experience
all
the
more
enjoyable.
The
ambiance
of
the
restaurant
was
loud
and
bustling,
with
a
dressy
atmosphere
that
made
us
feel
like
we
were
at
a
fancy
gala.
It
may
be
pricey,
but
the
experience
is
well
worth
it
for
special
occasions.
I
can't
wait
to
come
back
and
indulge
in
that
lobster
mac
and
cheese
again.
