    We had a wonderful dinner at Ember & Elm. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. Our server Blakelyn was fabulous - Attentive, warm, and helpful. I highly recommend the short rib. And the biscuits are incredible. My husband wasn’t thrilled with his shrimp and grits, but devoured the rest of my short rib!

    This restaurant is a hidden gem. It is not easy to see from the road because it is inside the Wayback motel (a Marriott property). The decor is bright and colorful with a southern Californian vibe. We enjoyed the avocado salsa, and I had a margarita with a hint of jalapeño (heat is made to order). The chicken quesadillas and chicken malanesa were excellent. Our server Brooke was friendly and provided excellent service. We highly recommend this restaurant.
