The place is beautiful, service is fast, and most important - the food is delicious! We had the slider trio and the duck pot pie for starters - so good! Mains was a wagyu burger and a steak. I'm a finicky eater and loved it. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious, and presented in a very appetizing way. The atmosphere was beautiful, this restaurant was very tastefully decorated with understated elegance. The tables were not too close together so we felt we had our privacy. They had a very nice wine menu and a nice assortment of mixed cocktails as well. I will definitely be back again soon.

I ordered the Ribeye and it was served cold. The waitress brought out a blowtorch and heated it up some, however it was not really hot. I ate it anyway and it was okay. Later that night about 3AM I had to get out of bed and use the toilet. The potato wedges were only fair. Some of them were overcooked and black. I had to ask for salad dressing for the greens that were served on my plate. If I were you I would serve them in a separate bowl or dish. I don't know anyone who wants a warm salad. I had a glass of the Binyamina Cabernet and it was okay. The glass was relatively small and not filled up enough. It was relatively expensive for one glass. My girlfriend had the Halibut. It is advertised as being potato encrusted. This usually means that the fish is coated with potato flakes or mashed potatoes. The waitress explained that it would be covered with thin slices of potato. She said it tasted good. I think that it looked nice, although it should have had some kind of garnish on the plate with it or a vegetable. It was just a piece of fish on a plate and the presentation was not good. The music was not really what I like or appropriate for a gourmet restaurant. It was kind of loud as well. The atmosphere is very nice and we sat inside near the wine room. There was one light bulb out in the chandelier and I let the waitress know. She told me that she would let the manager know.

I am pregnant and asked for a non alcoholic beverage. They charged $32 for two boca sunsets with no alcohol. Our server paid us minimal attention. Would not go back.
Pretty weak overall. Med-Rare Steak was extremely under...didn't send back because it took forever and outer was charred (inner was raw). More of a Pittsburgh rare (black & blue). Would not allow substitute of hericot verde for broccolini. Entire place was full of typical complaining NY snowbird cheapos with large noses.

Service was excellent. We were told that the interior restaurant was booked, which was what we had requested since one of us had a cold, so they placed us outside. The restaurant interior was less than 1/2 full. Meal was very good except for the pecan pie; the crust had a stale taste.

Nice atmosphere and very good food. We had a great time and enjoyed the food and the friendly service. The short rib gnocchi is out of this world!

Love this Kosher restaurant. Quiet atmosphere. Enjoyed being able to have conversations with our guests. Very attentive staff. The entrees were delicious! We enjoyed our bottle of wine as well as dessert. Highly recommend.
We had an amazing time at Oak & Ember.We sat inside where the ambiance was classy and calm. Our server Santiago was very attentive and did a great job. The food was really delicious.I also loved that they blowtorch the steak at the table a really nice extra that adds to the experience.Highly recommend!

Delicious food and excellent service. Gnocchi is incredible.Dietary restrictions: They were very respectful and accommodating for gluten free
The soup was delicious, and nice and hot. I thought for such an expensive expensive restaurant, it's might have been a nice touch to produce some bread on the table. The main course which we ordered was the mixed grilled platter for $200 . It arrived Luke warm. I asked for mustard, which never appeared . About 20 minutes later the waiter came over and asked how everything was. I told him the food was cold, and the mustard never arrived. He said he was sorry and got the mustard... Too late! Whilst we were eating the main course the waiter came over and asked us what dessert we'd like! I said I'm still eating my main course! Basically the service was abysmal. Waiter had no idea. Dinner for three cost $400. For that money, I expect good service and hot food. Not coming back here again.

The waiters, servers and help were charming and courteous. The food was problematic. I ordered a steak poivre medium and everyone including the server agreed it was medium rare. The server offered to take it back but we did not have time. At my suggestion, we were not charged for desert but the offer should have come from you not me. The hostess came around and asked if everything was OK and when I explained the problem, she told me to tell the server and that she could not help. I asked her why did she asked if everything was OK if she could not do anything, and she did not have an answer. I suggested getting the desert on the house and she agreed but she should have made the offer- not me. Btw, the gnocchi with shredded beef was mediocre.

Overall we had a fun night at Oak & Ember. The food was great. The service was amazing (thank you JJ).It is located in a great location in West Boca (FYI the main entrance is in the rear).I recommend it to anyone in the area looking for a great kosher restaurant!
