Food was just okay. I didn’t get the vibe either through the food selection and prep or the ambience that it was a farm to table restaurant. Service was fine not stellar. Wait team rarely came by to check on us

Excellent choices. My favorite is the crab soup. Spices on everything are subtle with a tiny kick. Grouper was very good as well as the veggie choices it was paired with. And of course, loved the piano man

We enjoy the Happy Hour at Ember however a couple of constructive comments. The house wines offered during Happy Hour seem to have diminished in quality. Secondly, the Happy Hour menu is tired and needs to be changed and rotated on a more consistent basis. Service is outstanding!

We always love dining at Ember. I do with you had a little more variety. However, I do like the mediterranean style of much of your dishes. I had the Greek, which was a nice salad loaded with couscous. I suggest less couscous and more greens. Love the lamb lollipops, also the shrimp dishes. Suggest more shrimp options than the appetizer and main course. Service is always excellent.
