Fire transforms
everything it touches.

At Ember & Oak, we believe the oldest cooking method is still the most honest. Every dish that leaves our kitchen has passed through live flame — wood-sourced, hand-tended, and built around ingredients that don't need much help to become remarkable.

Our menu rotates with the seasons. Our fire never goes out. We source from within 150 miles whenever possible, and we'll always tell you exactly where your food came from.

"We don't cook with fire because it's fashionable. We cook with fire because it's the only way we know how to be completely honest with our ingredients."

The Experience

01

Live Fire Kitchen

Our open kitchen features a custom-built wood-fire hearth visible from every seat. Watch your meal take shape in real time.

02

Farm-to-Flame

We partner with 18 local farms across North Texas. Our menu changes weekly based on what's freshest, not what's convenient.

03

Craft Cocktail Program

Smoke, char, and fire influence our bar program just as much as the kitchen. Seasonal spirits, house-made syrups, zero shortcuts.

04

Private Events

Host up to 60 guests in our private dining room. Custom prix-fixe menus, dedicated service, and an experience they won't forget.

05

Curated Wine List

400+ bottles from small producers who share our philosophy: honest process, real character, nothing manufactured.

06

Four Wood Profiles

Oak, hickory, pecan, and mesquite — each chosen by our chefs based on what's being cooked. The wood is part of the recipe.
