Some days, running a restaurant feels bigger than food.

Ember & Ash is an immigrant-owned, family-run restaurant. We’re raising our first-generation American children here, and our team carries many different stories, paths, and reasons for doing this work with a whole lot of heart.

Today is a reminder that hospitality is about more than service. It’s about looking out for one another, and about creating space where people feel safe and welcomed.

We’re staying open today because our community still needs a place to gather. Because our team needs work. Because small businesses like ours only survive by staying connected to the people around us, especially when things feel heavy.

We stand with our team and with immigrant communities across our city. We’ll keep showing up for our people, and for this neighborhood, by making sure everyone who walks through our doors feels welcome here ❤️‍🔥

We built this kitchen for nights like these, when the cold settles in and the fire becomes the heart of the room. Come warm up with us tonight before the snow sweeps in.

Closed tomorrow. Tonight we glow ❤️‍🔥
