- PPamelaHouston •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoI always have a great experience at Kemuri Tatsu Ya. The infusion of Texas Smokehouse with Japanese cuisines is genius. Parking can be tricky due to the location. Yesterday I parked across the street at the clinic since it was after hours. It is an easy walk across Pleasant Valley at the light.More infoKemuri Tatsu-yaPrice: Expensive• Japanese• Austin•4.6

- OTOpenTable DinerWashington, D.C. Area •5 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoWe had not been back to Red Ash since before the Pandemic. Shame on us! Now we certainly will make a new reservation as soon as possible, which will probably be a few months from now. Red Ash is so popular that it is that difficult to get a table. But the wait is certainly worth it. This evening we tried the Octopus a la Plancha at our server, Emma's suggestion. Octopus for our first time. It was wonderfully delicious and tender. For dinner we split Frutti di Mare, a wonderful selection of seafood laid on a bed of the best black and white sphagettini. Cooked perfectly! Emma was the perfect hostess and we were able to reconnect with Brand Favata, our favorite server from six years ago. It seems that very few few employees leave Red Ash. It is such a wonderful restaurant!! We'll be back very soon.More infoRed Ash ItaliaPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.9
