    We were seated on time, our server went out of his way to make sure we were well taken care of the entire evening. The food-fabulous. We all 4 ordered different things and everyone enjoyed each dish. Wonderful evening.

    Amazing food, not “touristy”. Service was a little lacking but the food made up for it.

    We ate early, so the restaurant was not crowded or too noisy. I had the roasted root salad, which was excellent. I also had the small plate Scampi with a loaf of bread - one of my go-to foods at Embers. My Sweet Heat cocktail was also delicious! The other two diners shared a Caesar salad and the Granchio Fire Bread with crab. Our waiter was excellent and checked back on us several times, but without being intrusive. I live on St. Simons and love to eat at Embers!!

    we like the 'vibe' here and the food is good. I wish they had more seafood and more entree under $35. I recommend with the caveat that if you have wine- expect your bill to be at least $150
