Went on evening of 23rd Dec. Looked fully booked, I would recommend booking. Atmosphere was great, liked that couples have seeing around the corner with river views. Obviously was dark but still a lovely space. Both owners are very friendly and personable, nothing is a bother. Waitress only took one starter down instead of two. Might be an idea to repeat the order back. The owner was very attentive and sorted the other starter out. The steak tartare was amazing, the wasabi was just right. Chicken schnitzel wit veloute was very tasty. We em were too full for desert as also ordered sides of fries and green beers, 2 bottles of sparkling water and two glasses of red wine. £107 without service charge. We tipped separately. Quite expensive, but a special treat. Would definitely recommend and go in the future. It was our anniversary and got a little chocolate treat, which was a nice personal touch. An excellent addition to Sunderland food scene. Wish the owners and staff all the best !

We recently attended Ember for a birthday celebration with a table of six, and I can honestly say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Every single person in our group commented that the food was some of the best they’ve ever had—each dish was beautifully prepared, full of flavour, and truly memorable. The staff were absolutely amazing—so hospitable and friendly, they went above and beyond to make the evening special for us. Their warm and attentive service turned a great meal into a wonderful experience. If you’re considering dining here, I couldn’t recommend it more highly. Whether it’s for a special occasion or just a nice evening out, Ember is a place you’ll want to visit again and again.

First visit to Ember for lunch and it was excellent. Food was delicious with generous portion size. I opted for the cauliflower soup to start and can honestly say it the best I’ve tasted. Followed with the mushroom risotto which was equally delicious. The service was exemplary. Will most certainly visit again.

Amazing lunch experience for my aunts 70th birthday. The staff (Dennis in particular), were amazing. 3 out of the 4 of us opted for the lunch menu and the value and quality was absolutely phenomenal. The fourth went for good old Ribeye and he was thrilled with the quality too. The staff made a lovely fuss of my aunt and brought her a little dessert plate to say happy birthday. Would definitely recommend and already can’t wait to return
