Their sacrifice made our freedoms possible, and we are deeply grateful.

Buffalo - thank you for the incredible response so far. 🔥
Seeing customers coming into Ember Kitchen excited about our food are the moments that make all of the long days, planning meetings, construction dust, and behind-the-scenes work feel incredibly worth it.
We’re honored to have the opportunity to bring a fresh, chef-driven and hospitality-focused approach to corporate dining and catering to downtown Buffalo through Ember Kitchen and Café 257 inside Genesee Towers.
From the beginning, our goal has been simple: create quality food, genuine hospitality, and experiences people actually remember.
Huge thank you to Step Out Buffalo for sharing our story, and thank you to everyone who has supported us, stopped in, shared a post, or encouraged us along the way. We’re just getting started.
