The kitchen

Olive & Ember started as a backyard supper club built around a single clay oven. Today it's a sixteen-seat dining room with the same oven at its heart — and the same conviction that the best plates come from small ingredient lists and patient fires.

We change the list often, source from a handful of farms and fishermen we trust, and pour natural wines that we'd drink at home.

Visit

Walk-ins welcome at the counter. Reservations are recommended for the dining room, especially on weekends.
