    Food was great, service was freindly, but very slow. Seemed like each waiter/waitress had too many tables. Noticed lots of tables sitting and waiting. Once food was ordered it came quickly and tasted great.

    The experience tht i had was tht the place was a nice looking small environment.. the wait staff was nice and polite.. The food took too long to come to the table .. it wasn't seasoned at all.. and overall, I thought it was overpriced

    We were visiting St. Simons Island for the first time over Christmas holiday. Picked Ember for Christmas Eve dinner, and we were very pleased by all aspects. Would highly recommend.

    Absolutely perfect. We were a party of 3, we well attended to. Tables were spaced such that conversation was not competitive between them. Good wine list, also good non alcoholic cocktail options. Food was expertly prepared and delicious. We had a wonderful evening and will be back soon.

    We love all the apps at Ember. Get the scampi and the crispy Brussels. Don’t forget to save room for the pound cake!

    very unique place from a menu perspective and the counter is very unique. I did like my 'pizza' but would suggest they add a few more non pizza items or specials to the menu. My other suggestion would be to have the staff talk to customers more than each other.
