Marietta, Georgia
Wood-fired Southern cooking
Everything on the menu touches oak fire or cast iron — brisket smoked for fourteen hours, chicken brined overnight, cornbread baked to order. Order ahead and skip the wait, or settle in by the fireplace.
Add your favorites, pay online, and we will have everything hot and bagged at the counter. Most orders are ready in 20–25 minutes.
Ember & Oak started with a wood pile, a cast-iron skillet, and a stubborn idea: Southern food tastes better when it is cooked the slow way. Our pitmaster fires the smoker before sunrise, our cornbread never leaves the skillet it baked in, and the fireplace in the dining room burns the same Georgia oak as the grill.
Come for a Tuesday brisket plate, book the big table by the fire for a birthday, or order ahead on a busy Friday — the food travels well, and so does the welcome.
Rated 4.9 across 480+ reviews — here is why the dining room stays full.
“The brisket is the real thing — deep smoke ring, peppery bark, falls apart. We ordered online on a Friday and it was hot and ready in twenty minutes flat.”
“Booked the table by the fireplace for my parents’ anniversary. The staff treated them like royalty, and that peach cobbler should be illegal.”
“Fried chicken done right — shattering crust, juicy inside, greens with actual flavor. This is our family’s Sunday spot now, no contest.”
Two minutes off the Marietta Square, with free parking out back. Walk-ins welcome at the bar — reservations recommended on weekends.
