The Embers And Lounge - Avoca

First and Last time going there. My husband and I stopped on our way to Audubon for Lunch. We got there thinking this was a good ole mom and pop diner. Had to wait a few minutes to be seated, no problem with that. Other people came in after us and was greeted with warm and friendly conversations with them being called be name. Their drink order was taken, plus their lunch order by saying your usual? Don’t have too much of a problem with that but we were there a good 5 minutes before these other people were. I guess if you’re a Local you get Top Notch Service. We ordered our food and waited a long time for it to finally come out. I had the Hot Roast Beef Sandwich, that did have no flavor had to use salt pepper, bread was burnt like it was placed on a Griddle instead of a Toaster. My husband had the Mushroom Swiss Burger, this came out with Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, and Pickle which he did not ask for. Unfortunately will not return.

Very good food. Had a burger and chili. All 3 meals were very good.

This restaurant is phenomenal. Went there on a Sunday and the food was amazing. The pancakes are gigantic! Which is never a bad thing lol. Definitely recommend this amazing cozy little place. It’s a down to earth low-key very clean environment. And they make you feel very welcome.

The old Embers was bought out by a local family who renovated the place and opened a new kitchen. Food and service are great. Sue's Kitchen.

Very hit and miss service sat there for over 30 minutes without even being acknowledged before deciding to leave. Sadly had a good experience there once but won’t be back after this visit.
