    Exceptional experience! Our first visit (there will be more!) was for a birthday on a Sunday evening. We were seated next to the Christmas tree and a crackling fire (real wood!). Our server was attentive and friendly. The food was outstanding. We had the Caesar salad, pork shank, and filet mignon followed by a shared slice of hazelnut tart. Oh my! We'll be back soon.

    We live local and have been wanting to try out Restaurant at the Embers. Met friends for brunch today and a great experience. Very tasteful modern hotel with eclectic designed restaurant. Food presentation and quality excellent; good value for the money. Our servers were super-friendly and clearly love their job/employer. We'll be back; likely to try dinner next.
