Wood-fired steakhouse

Ember & Oak

Prime cuts, primal fire, one confident app.

Ember & Oak came to us running a chef-led steakhouse with a reservations line that stayed pinned to voicemail and a catering inbox that leaked deposits every month. They needed a single branded app that felt as considered as their tasting menu — and settled the operations mess behind it.

We shipped a reservation-first ordering app with prix-fixe pre-orders, gift-card top-ups, and a private-dining request flow that routes straight to the GM's phone. Every screen leans into the char, oak, and copper of the room itself — no template lighting, no stock food photography.

The app finally speaks the same language as the room. Guests book, pre-order the wine pairing, and the whole team stops guessing.
