Absolutely outstanding.
We made reservations here for my 27th birthday. It's very busy but the service was immaculate. Our host served us complimentary vespas (alcoholic drink). Then proceeded to give his recommendations on things we were thinking about. Like suggesting the lobster mac and cheese over the regular. It really was a highlight. He was very upfront and funny.
When it came to the dishes he said to try the house beefed up butter and it was astounding. The flavor was impeccable.
Finally desert came around and I had to try the Sunday since it sounded so good. It really was an experience.

I went to this restaurant alone for dinner while on vacation, I had heard the place is great and had to try it out. I chose the IDGAF option and it was worth every penny in my opinion. It had four courses and every course was such an amazing surprise that blew me away and gave me a chance to try new things.
The restaurant has a wonderful vibe that is luxe but relaxed, the cocktails are unique and delicious, the food is amazing and the portion sizes are great. If you aren't used to fine dining, don't feel shy! This place has such a comfortable atmosphere and I felt so very welcome despite being new to the experience.
My server was Javier and he was such a pleasure to have for the evening. He was great conversation and stopped by often to make sure everything was going well. He was so quick and happy to help me with navigating my experience at Maple & Ash.
I would come back in a heartbeat and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this restaurant or Javier's assistance to anyone. Best dinner I have ever had!

Fantastic team dinner. High quality service from the moment we arrived. Excellent drinks. The homemade chips and caviar-topped dip started us off with high expectations that were met and exceeded. I enjoyed a wedge salad prior to my NY Strip which was just delicious. Mushrooms, asparagus, and mac& cheese filled out the plate. Huge sundae service for dessert. Nothing but praise for the good food and great service.

The food was amazing! The tuna tarte to die for, so was the octopus & drinks! Very nice setup for outdoor seating as well as the interior design. Perfect locations too, if i lived here i would 100% go shopping and come here after (as a reward)
Perfect for date night or girls night, even solo dates. 10/10, thanks chigago

The best steakhouse in Chicago!
The ambiance(3rd fl) was amazing and the food was so good.
The staffs were very friendly as well.
I was surprised we got complimentary drink and caviar dip as soon as we sat.
I would definitely come back to try again.

This restaurant is more than food, it’s an experience! The service was amazing. Upon arrival we received a complimentary drink and caviar dip w/ house made chips. First time trying caviar and for it to be an expensive one for free was a bonus. We also tried the stuffed meatballs which were tasty as well. For dinner we indulged in lamp chops, bone marrow stuffing, sweet potatoes, steak, spinach, & mashed potatoes. All so delectable and filling as the sides are meant for sharing. We ended off with an apple crisp pie and ice cream. Not too sweet but just right. It’s a good place to celebrate events! We also had 2 great mixed drinks with slogans on the straws.

Maple & Ash is the favorite and offers some of the best dishes in not only the Gold Coast, but the entire city. Both formal dining upstairs and 8 Bar downstairs are sure to impress. I've never had a dish here that didn't leave me amazed and the atmosphere is incredible. Servers are always on-point, friendly and give great recommendations.

One of the best dining experiences I've had in my life. The staff and service could not have been better. The food was outstanding. And the atmosphere is second to none. Would love to return soon.

I don't even have words to describe how amazing my experience was at Maple and Ash. Lauren made sure I was well taken care of and the food was INCREDIBLE. I don't regret one single bite of what I ordered. (Which was possibly everything on the menu). Treat yourself to a once in a lifetime dining experience. You won't regret it. Worth the wait, worth the calories and worth every dollar spent.

It was an amazing experience! I went for my birthday dinner. Everything from the gorgeous decor, attentive waitstaff to the delicious food was impeccable. The portions are small but rich in taste. I highly recommend this place!

Everything was amazing! My husband and I came here for our birthdays and Maple & Ash really lived up to the expectation of being one of the best restaurants in Chicago.
Service was excellent, food was to die for and the portion sizes were pretty good considering this is an upscale restaurant. Would love to come back some day in the future!

We had the pro seafood Tower. Was very delicious. There was like a lake of butter at the bottom of the pan which made everything's taste delicious. The service was awesome and fast. The crowd is definitely business professional and very fun. A very lively spot. Around the bar there's layers of people talking and having fun. Next time I'm in Chicago, I'll definitely be coming back here.
