    Elliott’s on Linden is more than a meal: Elliott’s on Linden is a dining EXPERIENCE. This restaurant excels at all the dimensions of providing their customers with the best. We had the Cedar Planked Salmon, Crab Hushpuppies, Tuna Tartare and Pork Schnitzel. All were uniquely prepared with a special combination of flavors that work very well to enhance. For example the Crab Hushpuppies are drizzled with two sauces, spicy and sweet and delicious! We look forward to future dining at Elliott’s on Linden!

    We had the pleasure of dining at Ashten’s last night for our anniversary, and it was truly a memorable experience. We ordered the Crispy Maple Leaf Farms Duck and the 12-ounce Brasstown Beef NY Strip, and both dishes were nothing short of perfection. The duck was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a rich, flavorful sauce that tied the dish together beautifully. The NY Strip was cooked exactly to our liking — tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. Our waiter elevated the experience even further with his thoughtful recommendations, genuine enthusiasm, and impeccable attention to detail. It’s rare to find a place where both the food and service exceed expectations, but Ashten’s delivered on every level. Highly recommend this restaurant for any special occasion or even just a night out. We will definitely be returning for more!

    Service was impeccable, thanks! Crowd noise level was high outside, not a place for seniors when it’s crowded. We went inside, still noisy - better suited for the younger crowd. Burger and chicken 4 star. Thanks.
