Ember Steak House Beckenham

Fantastic place from food, to service to entertainment and cleanliness. Wow Wow Wow

The good: our mains were delicious. I had the fillet steak medium rare with beef dripping chips and my partner had the sirloin steak and mash. Wine was reasonably priced for the bottle. Belly dancer as entertainment was unexpected but a nice touch. The not so good: Whilst they were quick to take our order, our drinks didn’t arrive for ages then our starters took 50 mins. I had the chicken wings which were freezing cold so we sent them back. Our mains took another 25-30 mins and they initially gave my partner the cheese mash by accident (he hates cheese!) so he sent that back and had eaten half his steak by the time the correct mash arrived. Service charge is added to the bill as optional and we decided to only pay some of it, we were questioned why, when we told the waitress our reasons she got very defensive saying they were busy. Please don’t ask us if you don’t like the feedback. The bill was £150 so not cheap, I would expect the correct orders to arrive and in a timely manner for those prices.

Amazing food amazing staff amazing restaurant fire dancer amazing also

Service incredibly slow after starters served. Steaks really well cooked & great quality. Grateful to have finished main before the fire eating dancer performed due to the smell of paraffin. It was so strong made two of our parties eyes itch. Not put off as would definitely return.

We immediately noticed that everywhere you looked, it looked immaculate. We then met the immaculate waiter/manager, ate immaculate food and paid the immaculate bill. All in all, very nice

The service was great. although was busy the attention from Xonna was the best we have ever had, thank you

Adults and kids all enjoyed it - will visit again!

My husband and I had dinner here for new years eve. Had a fabulous time food was amazing staff were brilliant cocktails were on point. Will definitely be coming back.

Amazing food and brilliant service. Best steak I’ve ever had.

Very good, would go back if we lived more local

Had a great time great food. Would go there again.

Had heard great things about Ember but was sadly quite disappointed.. our cocktails were so sour we kindly sent them back or asked for some lemonade.. the waitress seemed pretty upset about this. We then ordered steak, someone had mentioned these came on hot stones but there was no mention of this. Maybe this could be easier to see on the menu it’s quite a selling point. Our steaks arrived both myself and a friend ordered medium rare but they were not cooked like this at all more to well done. We should have sent them back. Especially as it was £80+ per head..

Food was amazing! Service was excellent. Cannot fault the place. Best restaurant in Beckenham!

We went to dinner with friends. The food was delicious, the staff very friendly but also courteous. We had no idea that there would be entertainment in the form of a beautiful young lady fire eater who also did belly dancing. Quite unexpected but very entertaining. We would recommend the restaurant to family and friends and would go back again.

Great vibe, lovely friendly staff, quick service and food was incredible.

Steak was amazing. Cooked perfectly , tender and delicious. Nice to be able to have mash instead of chips too. Only bugbear was no option for onion rings which I always like with steak. Delicious food and great service, nice decor too, would recommend a visit

Fantastic new addition to Elmers End! Really impressed with the flavour and quality of the steak, it ticked every box for me and I’m very hard to please! It was so good we’ve rearranged our Ladies Christmas lunch from Grasso to Ember, really looking forward to going back and trying some other dishes. Well done Ember, you’ve hit the ball out the park!

It was a special occasion, celebrating a 75th birthday. The staff very kindly decorated the dessert plate with birthday wishes and a candle on the sticky toffee pudding, with happy birthday music playing. The birthday boy was quite chuffed! All evening the staff were very attentive and catered for special requests.

Positives: friendly service, food was mostly very nice, steak was good quality and sides were excellent, fun live entertainer doing fire breathing Negatives: too expensive for what it was, long wait for drinks, calamari rubbery and strong petrol/smoke smell lingering after fire breathe act

very noisy when the fire dancer came out to dance

Our second visit in a month. Great food. Lovely staff. Recommend.

Food nice. Drinks expensive needs reviewing. Staff lovely and very attentive. Not something we can afford to do very often

Food was absolutely amazing and the service was brilliant too

The starters were bland. Meatballs had no seasoning and were probably frozen. BBQ wings lacking flavour

Great succulent steaks, great vibe, staff are top tier, highly recommended steakhouse

Lovely food and such a welcoming environment. We’ll definitely be coming back

Really Lovely food, great cocktails and such friendly staff, would highly recommend.

Amazing food and service and excellent value for money. This was our fist time and we will definitely go again..

Everything was so amazing, the food was so nice and their services were so good.

Our first visit was good. Menu is a bit limited but what we had was nice. Music was a bit loud but not too intrusive. Overall a nice meal and service was great

The food was ok. Nothing especial at all but most of it was the noise the music was extremely loud for a restaurant people go out for a meal to chat drink nice wine and relax I felt I was in middle of a disco couldn’t hear a decent conversation but the staff were very nice and pleasant

Lovely decor, really lovely waitress great food but sooo expensive.

Good food. Great service, if a little slow. A nice new local find.

Lovely roast dinner with great service Highly recommend , food very good

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at this restaurant. The environment was great, and the steak was cooked perfectly.

Lovely Waitress Melina, Fabulous Food, Quick Service Chilled Vibe 🙌🏻

Really great quality and fresh, the food was exceptional and I would highly recommend. The staff were friendly and diligent and there was a nice atmosphere for couples or families alike. Really don’t have anything negative at all to say, and I will definitely be retuning

Staff was really lovely recommend the good service and quality of food would definitely go back

Lets start with the music which I think was poor, the whole time we were there we had music that was what I would classify as lift music, middle of the road music that was not being sung by the original artists. The waiting staff were very pleasant but seemed to lack direction, we ordered our food and wine at the same time and our starters arrived before we got our bottle of wine which we had to ask for in the end. Food was ok, nothing to write home about, but loved the touch where you get your own little bowls of rock salt, pepper and garlic butter. We asked to see the dessert menu but it took them so long to come back to ask what we wanted we decided to pass on the dessert. There were 6 of us inside the restaurant 3 couples, one with a toddler, who got more attention by the staff than the grown ups, around 10 people outside, if the place was full i really do not know what would happen. Prices in general I would say are higher than restaurants of a similar vain in Beckenham. As this is a local restaurant they will need to up their game if they want to survive.

Amazing food amazing service great place I highly recommend this restaurant

Expensive but worth every penny! The steak was cooked exactly as ordered and every morsel was melt in the mouth deliciousness. We ordered extra sides which were good but the garnish included with the steak was probably sufficient save for a portion of chips or mac n’ cheese. Taking advantage of the cocktail offer meant the drinks truly were value for money. We sat outside… only downside of this… so do the smokers! Perhaps one side could be for smokers and the rest reserved for diners.

Great food and excellent service. Would definitely recommend without hesitation.

Had a great evening celebrating my birthday. Crème de la crème cocktail was amazing and the crock of choice for our table.

Great service and food, would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good steak

A Very enjoyable meal good food with first class service

The service was great! Steak cooked to perfection! I will definitely be going back there soon
