The food and service was amazing. Very much enjoyed my poutine, espresso martini, and short rib. The leftovers of which were still delicious the next day. Our waitress was friendly and took care of us. The outdoor tables are also wonderful especially with the nice tufts of grass and scenic Riley Park nearby. The tables outside were right next to one another, so when another group sat next to us it was a bit annoying. Aside from that I'll looking forward to many a future visit.

New cozy restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. Good variety of food options with a cocktail menu. The cocktails were vibrant, and the food tasted very good. Service was lacking on a Friday dinner service. I'm sure it will improve with time. Give this place a try.

This was our third time at Spruce + Ash and it did not disappoint! It’s hard to find a place that is consistently exceeding your expectations, so we are thankful to have found that at Spruce + Ash. This time we ordered the cornbread waffle, deconstructed potato skins, steakhouse burger, and the Nashville hot chicken sandwich. The cornbread waffle was warm, buttery, and the right amount of sweetness to start off your meal. We followed it with the deconstructed potato skins to balance it out and appreciated being able to share this without the mess of traditional potato skins. The purple potatoes mixed in were a nice touch! My favorite item was the Nashville hot chicken sandwich - it was the PERFECT amount of crispiness and crunch, then the dill ranch and pickles gave it the perfect flavor to cool the slight spice of the chicken. My husband ordered the steakhouse burger for the third time and keeps going back for it. I tried a bite tonight and agree that it’s worth it. We appreciated the attention to detail and service from our sweet waitress, but also from all the staff members who checked in on us to always make sure we had whatever we needed. We will definitely be back soon!

I can’t say enough good things about this place! I took my best friend here to celebrate her big day and this place far exceeded my expectations! The bartender, Dylan, was welcoming from the start and made us festive cocktails throughout the night to help us celebrate that were INCREDIBLE! He recommended a few dishes that were delicious. The food, drinks and environment all made the experience so special and we both can’t wait to come back! What a gem in downtown Farmington! I wish I took pictures of our drinks to share. They were amazing. I highly recommend that you try this spot out, you won’t be disappointed! Thank you to Dylan and the rest of the staff for such a fun & special night!

I work in the same plaza so I decided to try out this restaurant and it was very good! The food was excellent, I tried the blistered peppers, the Cobb salad and truffle fries ( the truffle fries is just missing an aioli sauce and it would really hit!) and it all was amazing! The service was excellent and the staff is very friendly! I definitely would recommend this restaurant because it is a 10/10.

Tried this place for brunch! I meant to take pictures of our food before we dug in, but we couldn’t wait! I had the Eggs Benedict, which was good, very standard. But the Pancake - amazing! It pays homage to the pancake from Golden Diner in NYC (which we have tried and loved). It is different but amazing in its own way. So tasty! Our server was very friendly and kind. I recommend this place and can’t wait to come back to try more dishes!

Great food! Short ribs and steak frites were super good! Had the midnight Manhattan and ocean cocktail. Both were good. I'd highly recommend checking this out. Staff was really good as well.

Great space to have food and drinks. We really enjoyed the cocktails, menu, and design of the restaurant. Cocktails weren't overpriced but tasted great. El Sol was killer good. Food was amazing and portions didn't disappoint. Only negative feedback would be it seemed a bit loud indoors, but that may have been a product of the intimate seating and smaller indoor space.
