Opened in the spring of 2004, Embers is a contemporary American Steakhouse with a twist. Classic Steakhouse offerings along with complete selections of seafood & sushi are available in a warm inviting atmosphere.

Embers, as the name implies, evokes the warmth and comfort of a glowing fire; from the stacked-stone torch and gas lanterns outside to the glowing candles within. Black & White photographs of Cincinnati landmarks and celebrities create a sense of history and place, while large oil canvasses and vibrant floral arrangements punctuate the rooms with color.

    Food always good to great After eating there for years I think a remodel to bar area would be nice. Last night we had unusual disappointing service. Server was MIA 1/3 of the time. Also we added our Daughter’s 14th Birthday information in the reservation-not one person even wished her a happy birthday let alone did anything special for her.

    Embers is a quiet restaurant with impeccable service. The food was delicious but somewhat overpriced. A $50 or $60 entree is ok for a special occasion but not really for an ordinary Saturday night.

    Embers provides classic elegance in a relaxed, upscale and warm and inviting environment. The staff clearly take pride in providing excellent customer service and in sharing the highlights of the menu. And speaking of the menu, it is superb. Top shelf meats and seafood, alongside delectable salads and sides, are finished off with homemade desserts. Their drink menu is rich and varied and certain to please the most discriminating palates. Embers is tops!
