Embers Wood Fire Kitchen and Tap, San Antonio

Pictures of wood-fired coals and flaming cocktails adorn the walls of Ember's Wood Fire Kitchen & Tap in their sunny, expansive location. The large dining area is lined with unique lighting fixtures and flat-screened TV's leading to a granite-topped bar stocked with over 50 beers on tap and a full liquor and wine selection.

The star features of the eatery are the wood-fired grill and the wood-fired pizza oven, which cook up the majority of the classic American cuisine. Reaching temperatures of up to 900 degrees, the oven helps quick-bake pizzas such as the Butcher's Block, which includes the savory likes of Italian sausage, pepperoni, and bacon and the Chicken Pesto, topped with basil pesto and mozzarella cheese. The grill fires up interesting versions of quintessential dishes such as a wood-fired salmon salad, lean-cut sirloin steaks, and baby back ribs.

Ember's Wood Fire Kitchen & Tap also features a large covered patio with chairs to lounge around the fire pit for meat-eaters and veggie ingesters alike. Take in a quick lunch or laze the day away with specialty cocktails and wood-fired delights. The large parking lot is available for cars of all sizes to find a spot and ensure a worry-free visit.
