Ember Grill- The Ray - Delray Beach

Amazing ambiance. the customer service was outstanding. the cocktails are awesome. I enjoyed a great dinner. they also have a rooftop after you finish eating that has a live band.

Booked Ember for my wife's birthday. We were a table of 10. The restaurant set us up at a nice round table to facilitate conversation and we were seated promptly and cordially even though there were a few stragglers in the group who arrived late. Our server (Ms Magoon was fantastic. She had a great deal of experience handling large (distracted parties and had water poured before everyone decided where they were sitting. She was patient and took the time to answer any and all questions (even about which beer was lighter! . One of the quests brought a bouquet of flowers which our server immediately noticed and came out with a container to hold them on the table. She cleverly coaxed the distracted group into looking at the menu by offering help to each person. All the appetizers (shrimp cocktail, squash blossoms, meatballs, buratta with pancetta came out quickly and were delicious (and devoured . One of the group was vegan and she was very accommodating, pointing out his options (he got a side order of asparagus as his appetizer . All the entrees came out quickly and were 100% correct. The group was fairly evenly split between the salmon, the halibut, and the branzino. (The vegan got a very nice kale salad . For dessert, I had pre-ordered the strawberry shortcake baked Alaska, and the pineapple mango with the mango ice cream. The baked Alaska can out with a lit sparkler and the pineapple had a single candle for the birthday girl. After the sparkle went out, the baked Alaska was flambeed for an added touch. For the vegan they had vegan chocolate ice cream (which was delicious and indistinguishable from dairy ice cream. I had the espresso martini (fantastic as a cap off to the meal. The bill was split correctly (it was somewhat complex as I picked up all of the apps and two other people in the party and was quite reasonable considering all of the alcohol and apps. Note that parking in the area is difficult, but they offer valet for $25.

Great experience for a business dinner in a weekday

I found the brunch to be overpriced for what was included . The reviews that were left about this place is true. I would return for dinner or perhaps a day where you can just order off the menu but $170 tax plus another $40 for bottomless and then adding a 20% service grat ended up being $266 for two people and every was just meh not great or exceptional. Ambience was nice.

For a busy Mother day brunch it was very worganized and even gave us a choice of outside or inside
