Ash Taphouse - New Kensington (PA)

2 /5 Austin Denk: Food is pretty good. Me and my wife came with our newborn daughter for the first time; and had a great experience. We came back with one of her friends after raving about the place and we were disappointed to say the least. The food was decent; small things wrong with our order which is no big deal, and then it happened. A RACOON fell through the roof in the back dining area. His tail was hanging out; and pieces of ceiling tiles laid on the floor for 30 minutes plus while we dined. The staff didnt really seem to care; said it happened before and they apologize. Not sure if we will recommend this place again/return to eat.

5 /5 michelle faight: Monte was amazing! Loved the Peachy Sunrise and the Stuffed Mushrooms. We had a great experience, we will be back again!

1 /5 Bakes: All i can say is just WOW. Came in from out of town for a concert. Walked into a mostly full bar, no hostess, and no direction to take a seat or wait to be seated? Seeing a wide open dining area, we took a seat DIRECTLY across from the bar, in pretty decent view of the 2 bartenders on staff. At no time in the 15 minutes we sat there did anyone acknowledge our existence? Not a hello, not a "well be with you shortly" or anything? A party of 4 was seated at a table to the right of us and they were getting service and yet we did not even get eye contact let alone a freaking water? Never in 40 years of dining have I received such ridiculous lack of service. Excuses like being short staffed, does not prevent the staff from acknowledging customers and informing them that they will be with them shortly? Id give this negative stars if I could!

5 /5 Brittany Brandt: Monty the bartender immediately greeted us upon arrival. Had drinks as soon as we decided. Her friendly and upbeat personality is amazing. She was on it checking in on us, as well as the cooks in the back. KeKe, Lauren the cooks made some bomb food. I even had to have a substitution and KeKe made it with no problems. The husband ordered stuffed banana peppers and some shrimp linguine pasta dish that put Olive Garden to shame. I got BBQ Mac and cheese and it was so much better than even smokey bones. The portions are huge and well worth the price. We will definitely be back and will be recommending to friends and family.

5 /5 Stephanie Miller: My husband and I had an afternoon to ourselves, so we decided to try this place and ended up LOVING it! They had an entire cocktail menu as well as a variety of beers on tap. I usually get beer but decided to get an espresso martini instead and it was one of the best I’ve had. Our waitress, Heather, was a big reason why we had such a great experience. She was outgoing and made us feel like regulars, asking us questions about ourselves and our daughter. The food was worth bragging about. They had a large menu of specialty hot dogs for the day which we had to try. My husband got the Waltztoberfest and I got the BLT. Both were amazing. We also got the Boozy Grandma pizza which was wood fired and cooked perfectly. Before leaving, Heather told us they make all their own sauces and other food items as well as explaining all the fun events they host to support local organizations. Would definitely suggest trying this place out. We’ll be back for sure!
