The Atlas Review
The BBQ Atlas
Ember is a wood-fired restaurant in Hamilton that treats fire like an ingredient.
Chef Brandon Dearden and Christina Dearden built this place around live flame — Wagyu steaks, seafood, seasonal game, vegetables — all cooked over wood in the open. It's not barbecue in the traditional sense, but it shares the same honest principle: good ingredients, proper heat, nothing between you and the fire.
Open Wednesday through Saturday evenings on West Main Street. The rest is in the flames.
