    An excellent Turkish inspired lunch. Plenty of choice on the menu. Good cocktails. Good wine list. Friendly, efficient, well-informed service from Emily and other team members. Enjoyable playlist, calm atmosphere, beautiful view over the Wear.

    I chose Ember to celebrate my birthday with my wife and friends and the food and service didn't disappoint. The monthly menu was Paris X Ember, I had the Poemme Ana, Caviar Beef Tartare and the Ox Cheek paired with a lush bottle of Pinot Noir. Thanks again Ember

    I can’t comment on starters as I didn’t have one. Very limited choice of mains and no salad as a choice for an accompaniment. Sirloin steak cooked to perfection for me. However, the salmon was a very small portion and not good value. Service was fine but we were seated in the adjoining conservatory which was back to back with other full tables making it very noisy. The restaurant was empty so it would have been nice to sit in there without having to listen to the conversation of the table next to us.

    Excellent food as good as any top notch restaurant in the North East. Still a lot of building in the area which probably puts people off so it was quiet. Lunch deal is good value.. Third time we have been and we will be back soon. Menu themes change each month so worth checking. Service is impeccable.
