Auburn Avenue · Atlanta
Southern comfort, kissed by fire.
Wood-fired takes on the classics — smoked fried chicken, brisket mac, cast-iron cornbread — with live jazz pouring through the room every Friday and Saturday night.
From Macon to the Michelin path
A grandmother's kitchen. A chef's fire.
Chef Marcus Webb grew up at his grandmother's elbow in Macon, Georgia, learning that good food is patience and salt. Years in fine-dining kitchens taught him precision. Ember & Salt is where the two finally sat down at the same table.
Every dish leaves the hearth with a little smoke on it and a lot of memory in it.

What the fire does best
Smoked Fried Chicken
Pecan-smoked, then fried. Hot honey, B&B pickles, white BBQ sauce. The dish that started it all.
From the Hearth
Twelve-hour smoked meats, brisket mac, and whatever the wood fire loves that week.
Ember Old Fashioned
Smoked pecan bourbon, sorghum, black walnut bitters. Best enjoyed while the band plays.
Live Jazz · Every Friday & Saturday
Dinner with a downbeat, from 8 PM till close.
No cover with a dinner reservation. Arrive early, order an Old Fashioned, and let the band do the rest.

Brunch worth crossing town for
Smoked chicken on a cornbread waffle. Brisket hash with eggs from down the road. Peach French toast when Georgia gives us peaches. Saturday and Sunday, the hearth works mornings.
