Ember blew us away! We took our in-laws here for lunch, and we’ll absolutely be coming back - delicious cocktails, brilliant service, and a lovely tasting menu! The rabbit from the a-la-carte menu was so tasty, and we really enjoyed the fresh pastas on the set menu - definitely order the pavlova for dessert it was amazing!
