Atmosphere was lively and fun

We came in for appetizers on New Years Eve and were blown away by this place. Decorated mostly Art Deco, the atmosphere was lively and fun…. We will be coming back for a full blown dinner very soon. You need to try this place, really. Really.

Best restaurant in town

Best restaurant in town. And probably one of the best I’ve ever been to…. Apart from the excellent food, the service was awesome, and the atmosphere really nice. There was a pianist, but the music was not too loud and we could talk without raising our voices …. It has become my new favorite restaurant where I’ll celebrate special occasions.

Loved this place

Loved this place. Visiting from New England and stumbled upon [this and had] the perfect soundtrack for a lovely dinner. I will be back. And if you make a reservation, ask for Clarissa to be your server. She’s an absolute gem.

Simply outstanding

I am a local and have been to Hearsay many times over the past few years. The service, quality of food, and drinks are simply outstanding! With so many restaurant choices in Ashland, Hearsay is my go-to establishment for a brunch with friends, business lunch, or romantic dinner. A lovely garden at the back of the speakeasy decorated restaurant is a romantic hidden gem, and the piano inside a lovely focal point for evening entertainment.

Super classy

Super classy! I’ve been here for pre-theater brunch and the food is wonderful. I have also visited just for drinks. Best dirty martini I have had in Ashland. The staff is my favorite. They always spend a little more time and add a little something extra! Love the decor and the patio is perfect!

Absolutely stunning experience

Absolutely stunning experience. I look for several characteristics in what I consider an outstanding restaurant and seldom find them all in one place…Hearsay, in downtown Ashland, Oregon, is one of those precious gems exemplifying all that I look for… brilliantly put together with a decor out of a 1920’s NYC jazz club. Stunning paintings of jazz scenes done by an artist from Mexico adorn the walls. In the background is a jazz soundtrack…service was gracious and attentive…menu was varied and our choices delicious…Not to be missed!

A “must visit” for our small group

We have visited Ashland 2-3 times a year for many years, and each visit includes a dinner at Hearsay. It’s definitely a preferred restaurant, and between the quality of the food and its proximity to the theaters is a “must visit” for our small group.

Nothing quite so magical as a summer evening in their garden

Hearsay is wonderful! Food is imaginative, and always well prepared. The restaurant itself is lovely and cozy, but there is nothing quite so magical as a summer evening in their garden.
