Our Story
A neighborhood restaurant shaped by Italian generosity, Texas fire, and the belief that a shorter menu can say more.
One hearth.
Two traditions.
Ember & Vine began with a simple question: what happens when the ritual of an Italian table meets the directness of live-fire cooking? The answer is a dining room where handmade pasta sits naturally beside a deeply charred ribeye, and every bottle is chosen to belong with food.
Our kitchen buys carefully, ages patiently, and cooks with restraint. We keep the menu focused so the details stay sharp—from the first slice of crudo to the last spoonful of affogato.
Hospitality is the other half of the work. We want the room to feel polished but never precious: a place for a Tuesday dinner, a milestone toast, and the regular table you request by name.
Trusted by regulars, table after table.
100 tables a day × 365 days is 36,500 guests a year — every one of them either becomes a regular or leaves a review. We built the room to earn both.
