I am trying to build a script/command that will restart our Asterisk/Elastix service on our PBX. The script is basically using simple command with auto log-in public key that run from Ubuntu 14.04LTS:

The command script is:

ssh user@iphost 'service asterisk restart'

But after the command finished and service restarted, the ssh stays and only after ctrlc its breaks out.

My question, is how can I terminate the session after the command completes?

Try redirecting stdin, stdout, and stderr to /dev/null. For an explanation, see https://serverfault.com/questions/36419/using-ssh-to-remotely-start-a-process.
