Was an excellent night - service was very friendly and I felt looked after as it was my birthday. Restaurant wasn't very busy and food was great, could hear the music from the bar which was a lovely guitar player. Steak slightly on the expensive side given that it didn't come with sides and we added those. Wine selection by the glass limited but by the bottle was good.

Dear Cass, Thank you for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your birthday celebration with us and that our team made you feel well looked after. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the steak pricing, wine selection and signature cocktail suggestion.

This was our first time leaving Ember & Vine disappointed. We had pre booked our table but we were allocated one tucked well up into Aviators. In our 75 minutes there not once... not once did a staff member come near our table. I had to clear the table myself. The hot food was cold, and trays often very low or empty. Also, we waited more than 35 minutes for our egg order. My sister went to the kitchen to enquire about it, and they finally gave her my omelette and her poached eggs on the same plate! I understand that it was busy, the busiest breakfast we've experienced since being regular diners there. But after raving to my sister and her husband about how good E&V is, we left disappointed and embarrassed.

We had an amazing night at Fig and Vine! All of the staff were wonderful, but Seunghee truly stood out. She was incredibly friendly, professional, and so kind to my little girl. The food was spectacular, with the melt-in-your-mouth steak being the absolute highlight of the evening. We also loved the layout; the tables are well-spaced, creating a vibrant ambiance without ever feeling crowded or noisy.
Ember & VineResponded on 6 October 2026
Hi Jodi, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you had such an amazing evening and enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and service. We’ll be sure to share your lovely feedback with Seunghee — she’ll be thrilled to know she made your experience, especially for your little girl, so memorable. We truly appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you and your family back again soon! Warm regards, Ember&Vine team.
