Maple & Ash’s Eight Bar Offers an Untraditional Omakase | Eater Chicago
"Opened in 2015 in the Gold Coast near Morton’s and Gibsons, this lavishly built steakhouse paired a reverent attitude with a playful, consumer-first approach to fine dining—centering on steaks while rejecting old rules. It requires reservations and has expanded into South Beach, Miami earlier this year. The operation has weathered an acrimonious split with former investors and related litigation, reorganizing under a reformed company and pursuing further expansion, including a potential space in New York." - Ashok Selvam
