8/5/2023 - Oh my...this was our very first time here! We had brunch here and this was the very first time my friend and I had ever eaten here! It was a wonderful experience to say the least! Upon arrival, the hostess sat us down with a very warm welcome for our brunch and then we were approached by our amazing server, Bruno, who was just PHENOMENAL with everything!! This was a price fixed brunch and it was EXCELLENT!! It was 36 per person, which is not bad at all, and the portions are huge!! We were told by the hostess the brunch was just brought back about two months ago so please return there, people!! It's worth it!! We ordered the smoked pork belly & avocado toast and seared sea scallop & grits for our brunch meals and we also got the croissants 2 ways with buttermilk biscuits, strawberry marmalade, whipped butter, fruit mix, yogurt, & homemade granola. We inquired on the granola and asked if it contained coconut in it since I'm SEVERELY allergic to coconut. Well, our amazing server, Bruno, went to ask the Chef if the granola contained any coconut in it and she confirmed it did. Bruno was kind enough to come out to inform us of this. He then came back out to to bring me a new container of homemade granola that the Chef made WITHOUT coconut specifically for ME!!! Yessssss!!!! ME!!! Oh...My...!!!!!!! I can't wait until Yelp allows emojis on here!!!! Seriously!!! It almost brought me to tears!! ;( It was so moving that the Chef wanted to make me feel so welcome and make me a special blend of granola that was coconut FREE for ME!! A special applause goes out to HER for sure!!!! The restaurant is beautiful and the ambiance is amazing!! We will most definitely return for many more special meals and hopefully have the ever so wonderful Bruno as our server!!!
Truly a magical experience at Ahso! My partner and I made a reservation for our 2 year anniversary and they greeted us with a custom menu and card wishing us a happy anniversary. We had a glass of the Pinot noir from Dobbes family estate (so smooth) and the orange you a spicy one cocktail (delicious)! The manager, waiter and chef ensured every dish was gluten free as my partner has celiac and made sure to let us know that the fryers are shared for us to avoid any fried dishes. We had the strawberry and summer greens salad, bursts and za’atar spiced carrots, and Vilma’s lamb and beef birria pupusa for appetizers. For our main, we had Herbert zucchini (vegetarian) and black angus New York strip. Everything was divine and they even topped it off w a free desert for our anniversary.
We surprised my friend for her birthday for brunch at AhSo. Amazing experience! Service is phenomenal, the atmosphere is fantastic (there's outdoor seating as well), food was prepared perfectly and the mixologist knows his craft! The brunch menu offered a great variety of options and I think everyone was satisfied with their choices. If we lived in the area, this would definitely be a go-to spot! We'll certainly be returning for dinner the next time we visit.
One of our favorite places in the area. Service is always first class. Jason and his staff are very friendly and welcoming. Food is top notch. The prefix menu is an awesome deal.
We loved Ahso! The green beans appetizer were a symphony in my mouth! Loved the infusion of flavors! I also loved the scallops appetizer very infused with flavor! The beef ribs were so good and so were the shishito peppers. Oh and the dessert was very tasty. Portions were small but totally worth it!
Update 5/24:Ahso continues to be among our top favorite places to dine. Chef Jason and his team truly cherish producing unique and exceptionally flavorful dishes at the chefs counter. The engaging conversation, exploring new wines and new cuisine, the atmosphere, all of it is 11/10! Will will be back again soon! This is hands down one of the best culinary experiences I have ever had. The food, the staff, the journey your pallette takes here is something I will continue to go back for. If you have an opportunity to try the chefs table, or even the tasting menu, do it you wont regret it!
Visited Ahso for dinner and had a great time. The restaurant atmosphere is great, clean and new with contemporary style. The menu is small and simple, with creative dishes and locally-sourced meat and vegetables. The wait staff is incredible attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. The food was incredible, familiar dishes with a unique twist and outstanding flavors. Excellent place for a date, anniversary, or fancy night out.
A Hidden Gem in Brambleton – Intimate, Elevated, and Absolutely Delicious My husband and I recently visited Ahso Restaurant in Ashburn (Brambleton) for a date night, and it was truly an amazing experience from start to finish. While the location itself isn’t large, it offers a cozy, intimate vibe that’s perfect for a relaxed yet elevated evening out. The service was warm and attentive, the wine selection was fantastic, and every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and creativity. I opted for the 5-course pairing (without the wine tasting), and I genuinely loved every dish that came to the table. Each course was thoughtfully prepared and presented, showcasing both technique and bold flavor combinations. My husband went with a different entrée—the house-made linguine with duck tenders—and it was equally impressive. Rich, comforting, and beautifully executed. We were pleasantly surprised with two chef’s tasting gifts during the meal: the first was a pork chorizo tartare served in a crispy chickpea cup, which was such a unique and delicious bite. The second was a refreshing and delightful house-made raspberry sherbet—a perfect little palate cleanser to end the night. For my cocktail, I tried the 'No THYM.E to Waste'—a cucumber- and gin-based drink with prosecco. It was light, crisp, and incredibly refreshing. A perfect match for the evening’s menu. We made early reservations around 5:00 PM on a Saturday, and by the time we were wrapping up around 6:30, the restaurant was already filling up fast. So if you're planning a visit (which you absolutely should), I highly recommend making a reservation. Overall, AhSo is a true hidden gem in Brambleton. Whether you're celebrating something special or just want an unforgettable night out, this place delivers on all fronts—ambience, service, creativity, and flavor. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!
