We had a 530 reservation and we weren’t seated until 6:15. We two small children that’s hard. Service was good but it takes too long for chef to start cooking. Food was very good. Drinks are pricy and a missed opportunity for the restaurant because bar could not keep up. Waited 45 minutes for drink. Staff work hard but need more bartenders for the volume of customers. Expect to pack your patience. Fun night food was good.

It's always a treat to be able to enjoy a delicious meal at Embers. The steaks, the seafood, the sushi......oh my goodness! I almost always get the sushi feature but tonight I ordered the Snow Cod. I believe that's what it was called. Anyways, the cod was absolutely to die for! Our waitress was top tier, very professional and very personable. We will definitely request Tayloranne again and again!

We dined to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Megan was our server and she was outstanding! She is so friendly and knowledgeable of all the menu items. She isvery relaxed and didn’t push us through our meal, so we had plenty of time to enjoy our dinner. As an appetizer, she recommended the Herbstreit sushi roll, which was delicious!! As always, every course is a large size, so things are quite shareable for two people. Overall, we had a wonderful experience with Megan and hope to request her as our server in the future.
