This is a little hidden gem ,but I think it's one of the best steakhouse in Bristol . My fillet steak was cooked perfect and just melted in my mouth . If I could be really picky and had to pick falt It would of been nice to have a mushroom or tomoto with the steak like they used to do . Fantastic though really enjoyed it.

I had the rack of lamb with dauphinoise potatoes and seasonal veg. The lamb was quite dry and tough, the dauphinoise potatoes were overcooked, very dry, hard and so crispy, it was really hard to cut through. The seasonal veg was a couple of pieces of soggy cauliflower and 2 small stalks of asparagus. Unfortunately on this occasion, we were very disappointed. My son had a kids steak which was lovely however, it was covered in way too much black pepper which took away the taste of the steak and made it unenjoyable. Such a shame as we probably won't return again.

5 years ago, just before Covid-19, I celebrated my 50th birthday here. Then, I said it was the best steakhouse I had ever been to. I'm pleased to say that nothing has changed. It is still the best steakhouse I have ever been to. 10/10.

I had high expectations for my visit to this restaurant, as I had heard comparisons to Pasture. Unfortunately, my experience did not meet those expectations. The service was quite disappointing; despite having a reservation for 8 PM on a Friday, our group did not receive our meals until nearly 10 PM. Furthermore, we were instructed by staff to keep the noise level down during what is typically a lively evening. The food was served at different times for each member of our group, and the plates contained minimal portions aside from the steak. Additionally, a side dish I ordered did not arrive at all. It felt as though the restaurant struggled to accommodate large parties effectively. While I understand that we may have visited on an off night, I believe improvements are necessary for handling busy periods. In comparison to Pasture, this establishment fell significantly short of expectations. Based on this experience, I would be hesitant to return in the future.

Food was cooked ansd amazing, service was good, had a great night, only i would say would be the sides of to accompany the Mains, the Steaks comes with a side salad, I would think as you have to order anything else on the side the side salad would be a salad instead it's a small amount of rocket, I think for the price a side of chips ect.. wouldn't to much to ask for,

Visited for a family meal, have eaten here many times in the past. Thought the prices for steak had risen very highly since our last visit and surprised that chips were extra to accompany your meal. Those who ordered steaks said they tasted good although not cooked as requested. Salmon and ribs competitively priced but not tasty. Cheapest wine per bottle, £30 with wine list not including origin. Unfortunately will not be going back in the near future.

Visited on the 19/10/24. 2 guests had steak they reported was amazing but very disappointed that they had to purchase a portion of chips separately not a tomato or mushroom accompanied the steak this is very poor for a steak that cost £42 each. Other 2 guests had ribs that were suppose to have a barbecue sauce this was congealed and did not look appealing, very strange taste to the sauce and once agin nothing provide with the ribs except a dollop of coleslaw. Ordered sides Mac & cheese do not believe the dish of Mac and cheese is as big or in the advertised dish shown on the website, It was very very small dried up with all the pasta stuck to the bottom and sides Of the dish costing £6., also ordered onion rings four people dinning and served 3 onions rings. Very over priced restaurant and not value for money. Wine really over priced left feeling we had been robbed.

Very delicious and well cooked steak at fair prices. The sauces were super tasty. Salad (as part of the wardyboard was tiny although maybe most people don't eat it? I would come again. My first impression and biggest piece of advice to the Ashville is to change your lighting- the place is overlit which means it doesn't have the intimate, relaxing, luxurious ambience that it could. Get some table lighting & side lighting and don't use the overhead lights.

Very overpriced food for a very undercooked food. be prepared to dig deep into your pockets. You pay £27 for the steak and that’s just for the steak chips and everything else that comes as separate And I mean, you have to pay extra for chips, you can only get the wine and a medium glass and that will set you back £9 for something out of a £4 bottle from Aldi just up the road,, staff friendly enough, but I won’t go there again

Never knew this place existed, despite coming from Bristol! We were looking for somewhere to eat before going to the Tobacco Factory and this is right round the corner, so gave it a go. It’s not often we have steak. Well we’ll be back, that’s for sure! We both had sirloin steaks with different sauces/sides and they were cooked to perfection. We were lucky getting a table, as it’s definitely popular and we’d book next time. The staff are delightful and very attentive. A lovely surprise! Highly recommended.

The most fantastic time and best dining experience I have had for a long time. It was my Father's 70th and I can honestly say the way we were treated made us feel like Royalty and as if we were the only people there. Host was made us feel so welcome and was so generous to our party of 3 and made not only my experience with Ashville Steakhouse but also my Dad's 70th unforgettable. Being my Dad's birthday they looked after us so well and even gave my Dad little piece of Brownie with a candle and a free pint. The steaks were beautifully seasoned and cooked to absolute perfection, so soft, tender and full of flavour with a great selection of delicious side sauces, the ribs were marinaded in a beautifully smokey bbq sauce the whole evening was perfect. The cheesecake was delicious too. Engaging, polite, conversational, listen to their recommendations as the glass of red I had with my meal gloriously complimented everything. I can't thank you enough for an unforgettable experience and the best Steak I've had.

We've forgotten to "reserve" the steaks ahead of time and they are super nice and accomodating. 10/10 (and I am American - we don't do much right but we know our steaks!)

First time going here as a party of 2 we’d ordered steaks. The sides were amazing! The cheesy mash was soo nice, really cheesy (perfect amount) and lovely flavours. The cauliflower cheese was also 10/10 and of course the steak was 10/10. Only down fall I’d say was the mushroom sauce was blended instead of chunky (maybe personal preference.) the last few times visiting have been on Sunday for their roasts. The first two Sundays we ordered cheesy mash as a side, hoping it would taste like the first time although the cheese was lacking which is so disappointing! Never the less, the cauliflower has neverrrr let us down. If I was being really picky when it comes to the roast I could say the potatoes could be a bit fluffier but overall would have to give Ashville a 9/10 for their Sunday roasts! Fair prices for all you get and the staff are always polite and accommodating:)

We decided to try the Ashville for our anniversary, on arrival we ordered drinks and was asked to wait at the bar while they got the table ready, not a problem atall and I enjoyed a lovely cocktail named after the venue, my husband had a thatchers gold. We were shown to our table, and handed menus by a nice waitress, we both ordered a starter I had soup of the day which was French onion soup and my husband had the camabert, my soup was OK bit watery and very beefy for a onion soup and my husband said his was a bowl of melted cheese and didn't have much flavour. For mains I had pre ordered my husband a 32oz tomahawk steak which he throughally enjoyed but the rest of the food was mediocre at best I had a fillet steak that I asked to be cooked well done, which it was on the outside but the inside was bright pink and I couldn't eat it, the chips tasted like they had been fished out the bottom of the basket, the onion rings had absolutely no flavour was like eating cooked batter, my husband had mac and cheese as a side, took one bite and nearly spat it out he said it was very dry like it had been sitting under a heat lamp and was definitely not fresh. The pigs in blankets were very nice. I tried another cocktail on the menu, an expresso martini (now I have had these before) and this was not very nice either tasted very bitter. My husband decided we should have desert so he had a chocolate brownie which was more cake like than a brownie and I tried a coffee desert, was again a let down, we ended up going to the local sainsburys to pick up ice cream. The atmosphere was lovely and the staff very friendly but the food let it down now we don't know if we came on a day where they were just having a off day because the reviews we read and the recommendations from friends we were expecting a lot more and with a nearly £200 bill plus tip we just expected more and sadly we won't be returning.

We came to dinner this evening and have to say that the experience from start to finish was 5 star. Upon entry we were greeted by a friendly staff member who showed us to our table. Once seated we were promptly asked what drinks we would like, followed by our food order at an appropriate time. We ordered the Wadry Board which consisted of; Fillet, Rib eye, Sirloin and rump steak, chips and opted for a side of onion rings. The steak was divine and cooked just perfectly. The chips were also the best I’ve had with a steak in a long time. Service was excellent as well as the chef. We weren’t rushed at all and our food was very prompt; not forgetting that the food was excellent value for money. We’ve paid a lot more for steak that’s didn’t have a touch on this. It’s a shame to see that this place has received any negative reviews as I cannot complain at all. We will be returning to try out the Sunday roast next 😍. Well done team!

Visited yesterday for my husbands bday after a few years absence. We used to live a few streets away and go regularly, but was worried it wouldn’t live up to our memories but it absolutely did. It’s bright and fresh inside, service is great, and most importantly food is blooming fab. Back in the day the burgers were always a highlight, the flavour lives firmly in my mind 🤤 Pleased to report nothing has changed on that front! The 3 meat combo of brisket, rump and rib eye in the patty definitely makes for one of Bristol’s best burgers 💪 Then it would have been criminal not to have steak. 10oz I believe is bigger than the standard serving for a fillet at many other venues, so good value, and yes it’s the most overused phrase ever but it was cooked to perfection. The chips are exceptional - impress even my seriously fussy husband who moans that most places don’t cut their own potatoes. Onion rings the size of your hand. Mac n cheese to die for. I could go on. We will not be leaving it that long until our next visit 🤤

Left quite disappointed. We have been here a couple times over the years and wine selection is unusual but interesting (Hungarian and Romanian......something different I guess) and the service is actually fairly efficient. What really threw us off is the large T Bone cooked mid rare, would never have such a large cut rare so the fat can be properly rendered. We have had every steak in this city and I've never experienced this. Basically I'm convinced of this or a combination of these factors happened while cooking. - Either the cut is not aged in anyway and low quality - It was seared and then deep fried - The grill section used to sear was caked in pork fat due to the Sunday lunches and it literally made crackling out of fat. The steak was just predominantly tasting of pork through and through and was kinda gross sitting in a pool of fat unrested, probably should have spoke up but we had already waited an hour at this point. Shame coz I've rated this place highly before and something clearly has changed, wouldn't just put a review for any old reason but I'm concerned about the potential cross contamination and paying £140+ for a steak isn't cheap.

If you're craving a carnivorous adventure + amazing food, look no further than the Ashville Steakhouse! This place is amazing! First off, let's talk about the burger. It's like biting into a juicy beef cloud sprinkled with happiness. The patties are so tender, they practically melt in your mouth like butter on a hot skillet. And don't get me started on the toppings – they're piled higher than a Jenga tower on cheat day! Now, onto the triple cooked chips. These bad boys are so crispy, they could give potato chips an inferiority complex. They're like the Olympians of the potato world – golden, crunchy, and ready to take home the gold medal in deliciousness! And dessert? Oh, sweet mercy, the sticky toffee pudding and ice cream are like a match made in dessert heaven. It's like a warm hug from grandma mixed with a scoop of pure bliss.

Absolutely love the steaks here and the Sunday Roast. Always amazing flavour and well cooked steaks ranging from 10oz to a whopping 96oz! 😲 The starters, sauces and side are all fantastic. I recommend the ribs and a portion of their giant onion rings. Also you'll struggle to find better triple cooked chips! We had between us... Starters: - BBQ Ribs Mains: - 36 oz T-Bone - 32 oz Tomahawks, I had truffle aioli with mine! Sides: Triple Cooked chips & Truffle parmesan - TCC - Mac & Cheese - Giant Onions Rings! - Salad Desserts: - Biscoff Cheesecake Sticky Toffee Pudds I've been here a fair bit and love the owners who care so much for the quality and service. I would 100% recommend you give it a try for a steak night with friend and family or for their Sunday Roast. Thanks to the whole Ashville team for arranging a great night with such fantastic food! @bristolian_foodie

Another enjoyable eating experience. Impressive venue, staff were lovely and welcoming. I went for mixed roast of pork loin, beef and lamb. Generally it was nice, pork loin crackling was crunchy however the loin was a little tough. Beef and lamb were nice and tender. Roast potatoes were crispy and fluffy in the middle. Yorkshire pudding was crispy but still tasted nice , along with the gravy, which was thick and flavoursome. Veg was spot on, special mention goes to the red cabbage and cauli cheese. The cheese to cauliflower ratio was was spot on.

We went as a family of 6 to celebrate a birthday. Starters were great hot tasty and plentiful. We all had steak I was the only one who had a fillet and it was without question the best I have ever had! Cooked perfectly melt in the mouth and just gorgeous. The sirloins were lovely also but 2 of us who had the rib-eye thought it was chewy and quite a lot of gristle hence not 5 stars. Desert was just gorgeous the cheesecake was delicious and the sticky toffee pud so light and fluffy We all had a lovely time and will definitely be visiting again soon. Great service and lovely staff too!

Very relaxed atmosphere. Great service. Lovely eclectic artwork and lighting. The best food we have eaten anywhere! I had the lamb main and my husband had the all meats burger, a side of onion rings and pigs in blankets, the food was outstanding! There was absolutely no issues to report, hence why we have given 5 stars. Looking around everyone appeared very happy with their food, lots of chat and laughter, all the food was freshly cooked and tasted amazing! I asked for no celeriac puree, the waiter asked if i liked carrot as they could swop the celeriac for carrot puree, which i was very happy with. I had 2 glasses of white wine and my husband had a pint of larger, the final bill was very reasonable for the meals, sides and drinks, it all came to £64, we left a tip and we haven't ever felt compelled to leave a tip in any other restaurant.

Booked this so called steakhouse for my 40th birthday when we made our Order we asked that our steaks to be well done and cooked so there wasn’t any red meat as my girlfriend is pregnant when the food arrived it wasn’t what we asked for so asked again for it to be cooked longer when it came back it was the same basically raw when I asked for it to be cooked longer once again the manager or owner told me that is was well done and he’s a chef so I’m wrong and was very rude at this point I had enough and left without a meal and this ruined my birthday stay clear there’s much better places to go than this over priced pub grub

What an absolute sh^t show. The service/attitude from the Manager/head chef Sandor. We booked a table for 13 for a 40th birthday meal and on arrival he moaned when we put 4 balloons on the table. We also asked if he could put the birthday cake behind the bar for when we had finished our meal which he said we would have to do the cake first, who the hell has a cake before a meal. He changed his mind but then spent the rest of the evening staring at us with a face like thunder. We were told prior to booking any steaks over 12oz would have to be pre booked. 2 of us ordered the Wardy board which consists of 3 x 5oz steaks and 1 x 6oz steaks. They said we could not order it because it's weight combined was over 12oz(thats not stated in the T&C). Again he changed his mind and said he would do it this once whilst stood at the bar staring over looking miserable for the whole time we was there. The food wasn't too bad but the service was absolutely shocking. I'd never recommend or return to this place again.

Popped here last weekend for a roast dinner, and it was fantastic! Nice little pub just on the outskirts of town, tucked away! We all had different roasts, but they were all a great size and very tasty! Unfortunately we didn’t have time for a pud, but the Biscoff Cheesecake looked good! Would recommend for the roasts! Next time will try to go mid week for the steak

This steak house is worth crossing the river for (Bristolians will understand), the inside warmth, character and welcome make up for the stark exterior. There are plenty of staff so service is excellent. Food delicious, including very special lamb rump dish. Reasonably priced desserts with crowd pleasers (STP) and non alcoholic drinks which don't cost the earth. All in all a great place to visit but recommend booking!

My party of 24 visited The Ashville for a pre-theatre dinner, Across the 24 of us we ordered virtually everything on the non-steak menu - main course only - ALL of the dishes arrived within minutes of each other. Given the size of their kitchen - everything was cooked to perfection - and on time [we have a tight window]. The food and service was second to none - We'll be back soon! Thank you

One of the best steak spots in Bristol! Excellent service, superb steak (and I know my steak), and an all-around great experience. If you love fresh ingredients, local beverages, and a laid-back modern venue, then this is the place for you!

We came just before christmas for a meal as we are currently working our way through all the restaurants of bristol. The food was outstanding but the service was terrible. Left waiting in a crammed little area by the bar as our table wasn't ready had to lean over people to pay for our drinks. Then we had food which was lovely. The steak was cooked to perfection and the side dishes were delicious, although we ordered desserts and instead of being told they were out of a certain cheesecake they brought out a completely different one which we didn't realise until we started eating and some on the table didnt like it. Asked for more drinks which we got told 'yeah yeah' and they never materialised, then got made to hurrily leave the table as the next group had arrived so had to stand back in the tiny bar area waiting for our bill so we could actually pay and leave. We understand if your busy and you need to clear the tables quickly but for how many tables you have shoved in such small areas and the prices that your customers are paying I really think you should think about taking less bookings and working on your customer experience slightly, then it really would be an excellent place to eat.

Booked a table for 12.00hrs for Sunday lunch. Arrived at 11.45 to be greeted by a surely gentleman who said "We open at 12.00 and have a staff meeting before that". It was the first impression that only Basil Faulty could compete with. It was awkward so we offered to wait outside until 12.00 which they agreed to. It was cold and windy and if they did not want people arriving until 12.00 they should have kept he door locked. The food was OK although the portion size of the pork was 2 extremely thin slices. That will be my first and last visit.

Final roast of the year from the Volly. Final roast of my life at this establishment. The roast we had 4 months ago was amazing, great starters, beef cooked to perfection not too long a wait. This Sundays roast was a complete contrast, 1 hour wait for our food and when it did finally come out it looked like it had came straight out of the school kitchen. A pool of gravy, slither of beef floating about with a few cold carrots. Honestly so disappointing. Had to get a pizza from GiGi pizzeria after to satisfy my hunger. Sort it out Volly! I don’t know who was covering that day but Jesus Christ, awful.

Proper cafe & a great fry up. Much cheaper and tastier than the hotel. Food came it quick and piping hot…. Proper “greasy spoon” without the grease and a choice of tomato (tinned is always better) and a generous portion
