Ember, An American Bistro

Ember welcomes guests into a space that captures the essence of California’s wine country. Inspired by the natural beauty and relaxed sophistication of Napa and Sonoma, the design creates an atmosphere that feels both grounded and elevated. Every material, texture, and architectural element is chosen to evoke a sense of warmth, craft, and connection.

Environment and experience blend

The space speaks the language of American craftsmanship, blending rustic wood, industrial metals, and mid-century forms with natural and historical references. Barrel-shaped ceiling elements recall the structure of a wine vault and bring a sense of rhythm and intimacy to the room. This sculptural detail does more than set a visual tone. It mirrors the farm-to-table philosophy behind Ember’s menu, creating a seamless relationship between environment and experience.

Feels the warmth and soft glow

A central fireplace serves as a quiet focal point, offering guests a place to gather, pause, and connect. The fire evokes the restaurant’s name and introduces a soft glow that enhances the layered ambiance. As guests move through the space, they encounter subtle shifts in light, material, and mood, each designed to support the relaxed conviviality that defines California’s wine regions. The result is a dining experience that feels thoughtfully composed yet completely natural.
