    Ember is such a wonderful restaurant. The atmosphere, service, food and drinks keep me coming back. The Halloumi and Smoky Eggplant Dip are to die for. Perfect for a date night or night out with the girls.

    Our dinner at Ember was a very pleasant surprise. Great restaurant (amazing decor), with a nice patio and a very efficient and professional service. We loved the variety of cocktails and our food was exquisite (cheek beef pizza, brussel sprouts, halloumi, etc) . We recommend this place 100%!

    We highly recommend Ember. The salmon app was delicious and the pizza as a main hit the spot. A solid wine list complimented the great vibe of the scene.

    Easy to find. Was seated right away. Very prompt service and attentive throughout. Possibly too quick to wrap up our visit. Our waitress and her support staff were really on the ball. We were hoping for a bit more of a relaxed approach so that we could visit and talk, however, when we asked for boxes to take our leftovers home, our plates were cleared, bills were presented and payment machines were brought out. We would have liked coffee and dessert, but we felt pressure to leave. We asked for recommendations for a coffee and dessert place and we were given several "date" appropriate places. My employer and I had a chuckle about that. The food was delish. Zero complaints. Will be back to try more dishes. My employer had the beef cheek pizza which looked amazing and she really enjoyed it. I had the crispy tuna appetizer and chorizo rigatoni which was so good, really good. My G&T was wonderfully fresh! The seating was comfortable on the patio. Vibrant location. Never went inside, so unable to comment. Only minor mishap was ending our visit earlier than we would have liked, but the next visit I will say something. Definitely recommend!!!
