The menu changes. The welcome doesn't.
Ember & Thyme is a fine-casual bistro built around the market: a menu rewritten four times a year, dishes braised, roasted and plated in an open kitchen, and a dining room made for slow evenings. Reserve your table online in two minutes — instantly confirmed, held fifteen minutes past the hour.
Why book this call
Cooked by season. Served without hurry.
Four reasons regulars book their next table before leaving the last one.
On the menu this season
A menu that follows the market
Four menus a year, written around what the season actually gives — spring lamb, summer tomatoes, autumn game, winter braises. If it's on the plate, it's at its peak.
Your table is yours
Reservations are honored, not overbooked: your table is held fifteen minutes past the hour, and nobody hovers with the bill to turn it. The evening moves at your pace.
Wine chosen for the food
A compact list rebuilt with each menu — every bottle picked to pair with a current dish, with by-the-glass suggestions written next to each course.
Plates change. Regulars stay.
“We've eaten there in three different seasons and essentially visited three different restaurants — same room, same warmth, entirely new menu each time. The short rib alone is worth the reservation.”
Marion & Paul
“Booked online at midnight for a Friday, confirmed instantly, table waiting when we arrived ten minutes late. Nobody rushed us out — we closed the room and were still made to feel welcome.”

Frequently asked questions

The long table seats up to twelve, and for larger parties we can arrange a set menu in advance. For groups above six, reserve at least a few days ahead and we'll confirm the details by email.
No. Come as you are — the room is candlelit fine-casual, and you'll see everything from dinner jackets to good denim. The only thing we insist on is that you arrive hungry.
You're welcome to — corkage applies per bottle. That said, the list is rebuilt around each season's menu, and the pairings are half the fun; ask for the by-the-glass suggestions before deciding.
Absolutely, especially at earlier tables. High chairs are available, and the kitchen happily plates half portions of most dishes — just mention little guests when you reserve.
