    (Best of Boston 2013-DORCHESTER) Improper Bostonian says, "One has to wonder how many times the kitchen staff at Ashmont Grill call out, "Train wreck fries!" The fries…might be one of their best."

    LOVE this place. Don't miss the train wreck fries. Or the lamb burger. Or the BEEF burger. Or the amazing kale salad....

    Train wreck fries, rice fritters and a grilled hot dog or the lamb burger. You must finish with the sticky toffee pudding

    If you're going to order the hummus plate, I highly recommend adding in the lamb sausage. It is absolutely worth the $4.00 up charge.
