Like any food lover, Chris Douglass, of Icarus fame, is always on the hunt for the perfect local restaurant. You know the kind: friendly, inexpensive, reliable, close to home. But he could never find that sort of place in his Dorchester neighborhood. So he opened one himself. The Ashmont Grill is a ...

Parking along Ashmont, Dot Ave and Talbot Ave is plentiful - you won't be walking more than a block at most. The food...

Ashmont Grill - Open Guide to Boston: the free Boston guide
