Embers - Gainesville

That was our first date night since we moved to gainesville, and we had heard great things. we arrived around 19 a.m. and there were a few open places at the bar. I must point out that the classes do not start for another week, so it will undoubtedly be at the weekends when the school is fully operational. Anyway, we started the night with cocktails. I really enjoyed the lavender blackberry martini. it was refreshing and not excessively sweet. we started the charcuterie board. there was salami, roasted pork sausage. I've never been roasted pork on a charcuterie plated, but the bites were perfectly delicate and the apple dimmer sauce compiles it perfectly. for my head, I ordered the caesar salat with beef onions. my man ordered the duck. my salat was really delicious and they have my question for only bark meat and no garnel that I was happy. my man loved the duck, he said it was perfectly medium-sized seldom cooked. his teller included both wings and the duck breast. he said he would order it again. to dessert I ordered the bananas foster cheesecake. wow! the brown sugar robe was heavenly. the crust of the cheesecake was from this world. I will definitely order it again! all in all, a delicious date night. the only complaining was that the service was slow, although there were several open tables, the barkeepers were not particularly attentive to us. I hope to come back and update my review to 5 stars.

This restaurant is a fantastic choice for a special dinner. The service is exceptional and I enjoyed the gator bites and a delicious steak.

Tldr: take them to take a seat. they'll get the nativity. I don't know why I wasn't before! we were both in the mood for steak, so we decided that it was finally time to give embers an attempt, but found that they were quite booked out, so we went to spark and got a stand. the room is small, but it has a bar that can accommodate about 10 people (not socially distant) and about 8 tables. I had a few frees good arome and quite stiff. eat: I have a medium rare ribeye with rosmarinfries and naven got the filet mignon with spade. I fired the nativity. it came with a velvety cheese sauce and swung and paprika and tasted like a chic deconstructed Philly cheese steak. if you agree, you'd love that. the pommes were divine. hubs enjoyed his act and actually ate the spade that says a lot. I have not tried much of his court so I can not really give many details about it. I feel like we have dessert, but honestly, I was hanging on the ribeye so that I can't even remember something after this lol. it was so delicious.

I ordered the King Salmon and got raw fish, even though they brought another that was cooked right it ruined my appetite

The restaurant has a fantastic atmosphere and the steak was amazing! The food and service were both excellent. I am looking forward to returning!
