Went for a birthday dinner as a family of 3 (me, husband and baby) about 5pm. They were accommodating to our baby in a stroller and sat us in our preferred space. Overall, a good experience.
Location: in the casino.
Service: everyone was very nice. Our waiter, Frey, was very friendly and knowledgeable of the specials and menu items. He was attentive and ensured we had a good experience.
Atmosphere: very nice with dim lighting. White table cloth. Clean. Booths and tables available. I prefer the booths for more privacy. The tables are nice, but you will be closer to others at tables. Small bathroom. Instrumental music.
Attire: you'll be comfortable as business casual. I wore a dress, my husband wore a plaid button shirt. I saw others in jeans & a nice shirt.
Food: we ordered pork belly appetizer, 20oz ribeye, lobster Mac & cheese, parm truffle fries, and ceasar salad. Our favorite was the pork belly, which is served smoked (like an old fashioned). We enjoyed the steak but not so much the sauces (hollandaise- too thick and demi glace- too runny). The cook on the steak was great and flavorful. We also liked the fries. The ceasar salad was good but nothing special. We were disappointed in the lobster Mac & cheese. It needed more flavor and the lobster was chopped so tiny you wouldn't know it was there.
Price: comparable to other high end restaurants. Our total with the above food and 1 soft drink was $180. All sides are shareable and about $15. I recommend ordering to share.
Special: for a birthday, they provided free ice cream for dessert.

Embers is a visually appealing restaurant with very good service and a beautiful atmosphere. The food was certainly tasty, but honestly, it didn't blow me away for the price point. It’s an expensive night out, and while everything was fine, I expected a bit more wow factor to match the cost.

I brought my wife to embers for our anniversary and it went far beyond my expectations. They are not a cheap restaurant but you can go in knowing this by their websites menu I was able to get an idea what I would be spending. I bought a New York Strip 14oz prime Steak and it is the best steak I have ever eaten and I did not get a topping for my steak just steak and I was so impressed. I also got a side of Au Gratin potatoes. I got also a bottle of red wine. They were both amazing. For two first courses, two main courses, two sides for main course, a bottle of red wine and even dessert. We spent $330. You truly could go cheaper with this place because we weren’t able to finish but less than half of our main course side and we took home our dessert because we were so dang full we could barely walk. You could do without the main course side or without the first course which were only $15 each. But they are worth the price even my salad was amazing extremely fresh. The atmosphere of this restaurant is great not even close to over crowded you call to reserve if you have to wait a couple minutes the have very nice couches with a fire place to to relax in. We waited less than 5 minutes and we arrived 25 minutes early to our reservation. Amazing restaurant. If you want to wow the wife or husband this is the place to go.

I’ve been a loyal patron of this restaurant, having dined here at least five times over the past 3 months. My first visit left me thoroughly impressed with both the exceptional service and food quality, which is why I continued to return. Unfortunately, my most recent experience was deeply disappointing and has made me reconsider future visits.
I ordered the King Crab legs and a beef filet—two dishes that should showcase a restaurant of this caliber. Both fell short of expectations. The crab legs were oversalted, served in a surprisingly small portion, and lacked the careful preparation I’d come to expect. The beef filet, while cooked to the correct temperature, was inexplicably dry and tough. I ended up leaving half the steak uneaten.
The problems didn’t end there. I requested my side of potatoes au gratin to be packed to go, but the container wasn’t properly sealed. By the time I arrived home, the cheese and butter had completely leaked out, rendering the dish inedible and requiring me to throw it away.
For a $200 dinner, this experience was unacceptable. What was once a reliable favorite has clearly experienced a decline in quality and attention to detail. Unless significant improvements are made, I won’t be returning.
