Our kitchen is anchored by a custom wood-fired hearth. Cooking over live fire is primal and honest—it requires intuition, patience, and respect for the ingredients.
We burn local oak and hickory, imparting a subtle, complex smokiness that defines our menu, from our charred vegetables to our dry-aged steaks.
An intimate Charleston destination for dinner, drinks, celebrations, and long evenings around the table.
Ember & Oak combines contemporary American cooking with the warmth and historic character of Charleston. What started as a passion for open-fire cooking has evolved into a space dedicated to genuine hospitality.
We partner with local farmers, fishermen, and purveyors who share our commitment to quality, ensuring that every dish tells a story of the region.
Whether it's an intimate birthday dinner, a corporate gathering, or a wedding celebration, our private dining spaces offer the perfect backdrop. Experience our signature hospitality and customized menus in an exclusive setting.
