Ember & Ash is our favorite spot on Passyunk. The food is incredible and the vibes are even better. The food feels like comfort food but elevated and fun. The staff is also amazing. Our server Devin was so sweet, efficient and welcoming. Perfect place for a quick bite where you are guaranteed delicious food, but it’s also amazing for a date or family event. It’s the best!!

Devyn (I hope I spelled it right) was an excellent and attentive server, and made some great recommendations on cocktails and food! Everything was incredibly delicious, highlights being the lamb ribs and crispy octopus. 10/10, would eat again.

We had a great experience for my birthday. Devon kindly got us a candle. We had a baby with us and had enough space. The food is amazing and we love the nonalcoholic options as well. The bread and butter is so good. We would come again.

We had our rehearsal dinner at ember and ash last year (after only being here once before) and had an amazing time, food was spectacular, as were the drinks and service. We came back for our anniversary tonight and had the same experience. Great food drinks and service. Atmosphere was wonderful, our server Devon was lovely. We’ll be back!

We came here for our anniversary dinner and from the beginning it felt a bit off. Let us preface, the service was fine. We asked to start with bread but we were told we had to order everything at once. This threw us off based on how the menu was structured.
When it comes to the food, the flavor was all over the place, some things being very underwhelming others being extremely overwhelming. We ordered the broccoli rabe to start and large parts of it were essentially burnt. We know the draw is food cooked over the fire but when parts turn to ash in your mouth, what then?
Finally the entree's, my steak frites arrived cold, which I sent back, but when it came back, you could consider it re-fired under a hot lamp. This left it sweating and gummy. My partner got the tile fish, the flavors were great. It was a bit underdone, which she is fine with, but others may not be.
Overall a pretty disappointing experience for the cost of the meal. We were left wanting a lot more.

The East Passyunk open fire kitchen burns on seasoned wood. Chef Scott creates flavor packed grilled dishes that are well seasoned and very enjoyable. The burger, grilled chicken and crispy octopus all warrant consideration. His wife Lulu works the front of the house and pitches in to distribute timely table side delivery. The service proposition is good, and the staff is friendly and well trained.

Great ambiance, good service and poor food. We ordered the swordfish carpaccio and could immediately tell the fish had gone bad. Replacing it with good fish immediately gave us bad vibes that they “knew”. Burger so oversized it turned the bottom bun to slop; tomatoes on the burrata that tasted straight out of the fridge. Very poor for $200 for 2.

What an amazing meal,
Had the special, and I had ratatouille moments. Closing my eye to enjoy the variety of flavours.
The dresser while good wasn’t my palette, the ice cream gave me a Parmesan olfactory, which didn’t work after the rototolo.
God that was a good main.
Definitely worth the visit.
