We pass through Ashland at least twice a year but have never tried Amuse. A couple of days ago, we decided to give it a try and were glad we did. My wife had the hanger steak and I tried the pork loin. Both were...More

Amuse is the closest to perfection of any restaurant I’ve had the privilege of dining in. Absolutely stunning decor with original paintings on the walls from an artist in Mexico, carefully controlled jazz background music, a gracious staff, a well paced meal and delicious food...More

Amuse is a small, concise restaurant in Ashland and well worth visiting for dinner. There appeared to be two rooms, separated by the front door and a foyer about the size of a shower stall. Were this in cold winter or say, blowing snow, I...More

We try to get to Ashland every year for the Shakespeare Festival, and a part of our experience is always FOOD! Ashland is very much a foodie's paradise. Amuse never fails to amuse and please us, and I have to admit that we are in...More
