For the price, there are far better choices. Sat right by the entry where every customer and waiter entered the dining room. Couldn't have discussions with family members as distractions were nonstop. Food was good, but took some time, service was average.

Best filet mignon I have ever had. Jeremiah, our waiter, was outstanding and went above and beyond to know our preferences and provide us with a great experience.

My husband and I celebrated our 38th Wedding Anniversary at Ember&Rye. Our waiter Jeremiah was amazing. He told us what the special of the day was and asked if I had any food allergies. I told him yes and he made sure everything was what we ordered. We so appreciated the excellent customer service we received on October 23rd, 2025.

We had a great time mostly, we were a large group, 11. Our server was asked which apps he would suggest for a group, he named the shrimp, the squash blossoms, croquettes, wagu skewers... I said thanks. I'll take 2 meatballs and 3 croissants. Some how all of the food mentioned was delivered. By the time we figured out what had happened people had started to eat the food. The party size lent to us initially assuming someone else ordered the food. The server said you said you wanted me to make suggestions, I said yes and you did but I only ordered the meatballs and croissants... he said I can take the items back. It was so weird to have this happen at such an upscale place.

Probably one of the best steaks we've ever had paired with some insane mashed potatoes with boursin cheese (game changer). Amazing bottle of wine and expert, friendly service team. 100% impressed with our experience start to finish.
Kris
The waiter was lovely. The food was under seasoned and too greasy. Waaaaaay too expensive for what you get. My medium steak was very rare. Go to Bob's steak house instead.
David
Our experience was excellent. Service from Johnny was perfect - attentive and his suggestions perfect. Shrimp cocktail, potatoes, chicken and lemon dessert cooked to perfection. A delightful culinary experience.

Amazing ambiance, good food — we ordered the croquettes which were amazing as well as the garlic croissants, my husbands ribeye was absolutely impeccable, perfectly cooked. However my crab and lobster bucatini was slightly fishy and the vegetables tasted like they were cooked in propane or coal, very strange taste. Drinks and service were amazing and views at dusk also incredible. Definitely worth it still.

The cuts were not worth the price at all. Filet came out undercooked and the King Charles was not my favorite. Waitstaff was solid and kept my party from leaving. Thank you to the staff but food it not worth the time.
Our waiter, Alex was knowledgeable about the menu and recommended delectable food and drink choices. As an avid golfer, dinner overlooking the breathtaking Aviara golf course was perfect for my husband's birthday. Alex honored him with a birthday song in spite of suffering a little hoarseness.

10/10 recommend Ember & Rye. Our server Alejandro was amazing! He was so kind and helped make our night even more special. We are currently on our honeymoon and he made sure we felt extra celebrated! He gave an excellent run down of the menu with great suggestions! The food was phenomenal. From the starters to the salad to our main course, everything was top-notch. My husband can't stop raving about the swordfish!

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary with lunch at Ember & Rye. The food, service, and view of the lagoon & golf course from the patio were outstanding. Our server Noah was exceptional and went out of his way to help us celebrate our day. Ceviche and beet/pear salad were delicious. The tuna sandwich had complex, incredible flavors. The steak frite was amazing. Steak perfectly cooked and a shaking beef sauce that was delicious. Highly recommend. Thank you so much for making our celebration so special!

What a great experience! Chef Jon outdid himself tonight! The food was beyond delicious and the service was top notch. I highly recommend this place to everyone!

Pretty place, very good food, but there were a ton of little kids and it is a very expensive restaurant. But we went early, so not a big deal I guess. Guess. Anyhow, very pretty place. Everybody was very nice and the food was very good.
