We're meeting the family in Ashland for hubby's Diamond Year. We're the first to arrive, so we went…read moreout for a walk, in search of food. We looked at the menu, it said something about a 'creek'. We're sold! As we entered the restaurant, we were asked: "Would you prefer seats by the creek or inside. It was too dark inside to read the menu, and anything to do with water, I'm there. I found the perfect table, where it's closest to the creek waves, but we were soon have to move, because the restaurant shares the outside tables with the restaurant next door. I was sort-of disappointed. The waiter, and the excellent BBQ Ribs & Kettle Chips took that away! Hubby's Recession Burger and Classic Fries were also just as good. He also ordered a side of black bean chili. Service was exceedingly friendly. Waiter was very informative about the direction, how to get to the other side of the creek, it was a perfect hike for us, on that beautiful afternoon. UPDATE: Our dinner was so good last night, we ended back to the other side of the creek, to Louie's for lunch! Our waiter recognized us. We sat closer to the wall, almost the same table as we sat last night, too, with a different waitress, who is just as pleasant and friendly as our waiter. This time hubby ordered a BLT (smoky bacon piled HIGH, and I mean piled HIGH) and Kettle Chips, while I settled for Spring rolls. The spring rolls were not large, they're like half of a normal size. His BLT came on a multi grain bread and just the right amount of mayo. We both agreed, it was the BEST BLT sandwich in the world! (We've traveled the world, we know!) But to top things off they gave him a complimentary, a chocolate lava cake as it was hubby's birthday. Thank you!

My friend and I were treated very badly at this restaurant. I am very forthright about what I need,…read morebeing a diabetic and asked for a skinny margarita. When it came it was too sweet and I tried to tell the waiter that and he threw an absolute fit and asked us to leave, saying I was being rude. We were shocked. Neither my friend nor I thought I was being rude. I didn't say or do anything offensive. When I asked how I was being rude, the waiter's response was, "do you hear yourself?" I even apologized and said if I had offended somehow, I was sorry. My friend said she didn't think I was being rude. As we rose to leave, I told the waiter maybe he was too sensitive and that was the problem. He kept yelling at me to look at myself in the mirror. The cook had our food ready and was about to give it to us and I said we were leaving because the waiter was kicking us out, and the cook's response was "good." He hadn't even been there. The waiter obviously had a huge insecurity chip on his shoulder to be so rude to a paying customer for some imagined slight. But then I messaged the owner and she gave me some BS about "heartfelt" apologies. I asked if we could come have the meal that we were denied and her response was "All things considered, I think it best you explore another Ashland dining experience." Then I saw all the one star reviews on Yelp and her exact same "heartfelt" response to all of them while absolutely nothing changed, and I realized the problem is the owner. She doesn't care about customer experience. The staff act the way they do because she allows it. Any other restaurant would have offered dessert or appetizers or something to make up for the bad experience, which is what good restaurants do. I am 63 and have eaten at restaurants all over the world, and never been treated like this. But obviously other restaurants have higher standards for their staff and themselves. There are too many restaurants where people are courteous and accommodating, especially to customers with health issues, to put up with the low standards at this place. We went next door to Green Leaf and were able to ask for modifications in the menu and treated with the utmost care. And to the owner, please don't bother with your standard response of communicating our concerns to your staff, etc., etc. We are perfectly aware of what that's worth.

My benchmark to drop a 2 star review is if you're at risk for ordering a dud meal. With a menu as…read morethick as a Tolstoy novel, the restaurant struggled with perfecting each dish, especially in a dinner rush situation. Let's start with the positives. The sushi side of the kitchen was their best feature. The sushi chef had flair and the rolls came out plated well with excellent presentation. We ordered the dragon flame roll and the volcano roll. The dragon roll was the better choice, with the spicy mayo and jalapeño accents lifting the experience. However, the sushi rice wasn't seasoned with enough rice vinegar, and that showed in the volcano roll where the flavor of plain rice intersected with the under-seasoned cooked fish. A lot of plain, mushy texture. The hot items from the kitchen were the bigger problem. They had several Korean items listed, which are some of my favorites. I was expecting the spicy pork entree to deliver that kick of flavor you normally expect, but it was more of a salty/soy experience intermixed with softened stir-fry vegetables. It tasted like a dish you would throw together at home on a weeknight. By far the lowest point of the meal was the chicken ramen. It was so flavorless and unseasoned that you could taste the local tap water in the broth. My wife commented that she would have preferred instant noodles. The service was very slow. One server doing his best to cover the entire restaurant at dinner rush. We also received an awkward apology from the waiter because he was instructed by his manager to skip our table and take care of a few others who had arrived after us. It initially felt alarming and discriminatory, but it ended up being the least of our issues. Overall, I think this restaurant's menu is its own worst enemy. They need to simplify and perfect a smaller number of dishes and get the flavors where they need to be. If you need to dine here, I would recommend sticking with the most popular sushi items. That could end up being a 3 or 4 star experience.
