Fire-kissed plates, honest ingredients.

Ember & Vine is a wood-fired kitchen built around seasonal produce, slow-smoked meats, and a table that always has room for one more.

The warmly lit dining room at Ember and Vine with wood-fired hearth in view

Welcome

A neighborhood table with a wood-fired heart

Every dish that leaves our kitchen passes near an open flame — whether it's a slow-smoked brisket, a blistered pizza crust, or a charred stone-fruit dessert. We work with regional farms and butchers, change our specials with the seasons, and keep the dining room loud with good conversation.

Chef Antoine Laurent leads a kitchen that treats simple ingredients with real technique, and a floor team that remembers how you like your steak.

What people say after they eat here

"Booked a table for an anniversary dinner and the staff quietly upgraded the whole evening without us asking. That's real hospitality."

Sofia OrtizFirst-time Guest
★★★★★

"The wood-fired pizza crust is genuinely the best in the city. We've tried most of the menu twice over and never had a bad plate."
