Take a long sip of fine Kentucky Bourbon and let the smokehouse aroma of slow cooked barbecue transport you south of the Mason Dixon. Oak & Embers proprietors spent years researching southern cuisine to offer you this experience. Their many trips to the Carolina’s, Georgia, Texas and Kentucky have brought to life an idea born from their love for great barbecue.The Oak & Embers menu offers homemade selections prepared from scratch. Great care goes into the preparation of each entrée. Brisket, pork, ribs, sausage and chicken are wood-smoked for hours to heighten flavor and texture—pink, tender meat is proof of the process. Lighter fare options include salads and flatbreads prepared with unique taste combinations to offer an escape from the mundane. Each entrée and side dish is cooked to order from recipes created from years of tasty research. Our unique sauces, rubs and dressings are original and thoughtfully combined to complement each featured entrée.

    The 3 of us shared a 3-meat platter. It was plenty of food for sharing and really delicious. We also really liked our waitress Erica and will ask for her again.

    We have been there a few times. The food has always been good. The service was very good. My only issue is it is one of the only restaurants that does not include bread or rolls with dinners.
