We came into town to cel rate our Anniversary, my daughter coordinated everything! This was not dinner ; this was an entire experience! Our server Veronica….. went above and beyond to ensure my husband and I had an amazing time! I wish we could take her back home ! This was service . The food on point! My husband said his T-bone steak was one of the best he has had ! The gator tail , amazing he ordered one to take back home ! Being the concierge industry and as business owners , we know service , we know staff that has been trained well ! I will say this you need reservations, which we did have . And still had to wait a bit . We will back and have already highly recommended to a few friends and family
well it was my birthday and I wanted to enjoy it at a fancy restaurant after much research I like the reviews for embers and I must say the reviews were right first the service was very good I liked our server he was friendly and he was very attentive I also like how they had different servers bring like the bread and then bring the full course although this place is very very pricey I find that the quality of food was well worth it did many many options and our whole table each got something different I ordered the fish I believe it was mahi-mahi it was perfectly cooked the seasoning was very good and I had ample amount I chose for my sides the macaroni and cheese and the sweet potato whipped oddly they didn't give us any of us a spoon so it was hard to actually eat the whipped potatoe
This was my first time visiting Embers and I have to say everything with excellent from the food to the service. Vic K was our waiter and he was knowledgeable about food and drink menu, and had a great personality as well! I ordered the 14oz ribeye and it was the best steak I've ever eaten. The lobster mashed potatoes were yummy and the four cheese macaroni was even better. 3 choices of different breads were all excellent as well. This is my new favorite restaurant. Portions were large enough to share an entree if you want. The cocktails were a little strong, because one drink had me feeling tipsy. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.
We visited for a belated Valentine's date, and while the evening started strong, the main courses were a major technical letdown. Our server informed us that they had two large wedding parties that they were serving, we really should’ve taken that in consideration when we ordered the food. We should’ve stopped at the wine and charcuterie board. The Good: The Malbec was very good. The Disappointing: My duck and risotto was unfortunately a failure in execution. I ordered the duck medium-rare, but the skin was not crispy at all—it was soft and unrendered, making it very chewy. The biggest issue, however, was the risotto. It was simultaneously gummy on the outside and completely undercooked/crunchy in the center. Biting into raw rice in a premium entree is a fundamental kitchen error that s
Had the gator tail, wagyu, wild mushrooms, cheddar grits, and layered lemon cake. Also had the whaler cocktail. Food and service were excellent, cocktail was great as well. Cake was a little too sweet for me but that might be a me problem.
