    This was our first visit to Ember and certainly won't be our last. Whilst an expensive meal it was first class and worth every bit. The dishes were cooked to perfection. The staff were very attentive and took care of us. We were situated by the main entrance and they kept checking we were warm enough and if we wanted additional heating and blankets. The noise level was quite high but everyone was enjoying themselves. We had the small plate dishes and ended up having everything off the menu bar a couple of dishes. We also had a bottle of Rioja which was lovely. Overall highly recommended!

    The front of house team, we’re fanatic. Attentive and friendly. As for the chefs, wow. The food was outstanding. Each course was presented in such a way to enhance the experience. The courses were described with such enthusiasm and detail. All over a really fantastic experience. Thank you to Team Ember.

    Our first visit - we loved Ember. Chose table option as dining with friends and wanted to sit as a four rather than at Chef’s Table. Food was all delicious - we each had a different favourite - the turnip, the bavette, the stone bass, the mussels……there wasn’t a dish that disappointed. Service was excellent - we felt warmly welcomed and no rush to finish. Great, lively atmosphere. We will be returning.

    A fantastic evening with my best friend. Service was great, food was delicious, atmosphere was lively and engaging. Great selection of wine, cocktails looked appealing. Bavette steak was a winner for me. Brolo red wine was perfect. Personal favourite was the scallops in lobster bisque. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Chefs were on top form. Really great to see the open kitchen and your food prepared in front of you. Recently moved from London and have really struggled to find anything of good quality over this way since. Ember has been the only restaurant that I believe gives London a run for its money in this area. Thank you for a great evening. Jodie :)

    Fabulous food, thoughtfully cooked and presented. A very different and unique selection of food, making the whole experience amazing. You are not likely to find this menu elsewhere making it a very special experience.

    My second visit and I loved it a great menu. The tasting menu was brilliant I savoured every dish they all hard a unique flavour. Staff were great you could ask them what and how they were cooking things and nothing was to much trouble for them. A great night out.

    I've reviewed Ember several times. I have dined there over 20 times since they opened. I love it. The food is innovative, interesting and always delicious. The decor, ambiance, customer service - all second to none. The small plates dining experience enables us to share and sample all kinds of different dishes. Seeing the chefs cook over open fire ....Highly recommended.
