Ember at We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort

Me encantó selebre el cumpleaños de mi esposo

If dining out is an art, Ember Steak House is the Louvre and Thomas Porrazzo, its General Manager, is the Michelangelo of hospitality. From the moment you step through the doors, it’s clear you’re not just having dinner, you’re about to experience something extraordinary. The ambiance is electric yet elegant, the food? Sublime. But the real reason Ember is in a league of its own comes down to people specifically, the absolute legends running the show. Let’s start with Thomas Porrazzo. Calling him a GM is like calling Beethoven “a guy who played piano.” The man doesn’t manage, he conducts. With military precision and Broadway flair, Thomas makes sure every guest feels like royalty. He’s everywhere and nowhere at once solving problems before they happen, welcoming you like family, and somehow remembering your name, drink, and your dog’s birthday. You’d think he owns the place. Honestly, he should. And then… there’s Mr. Frenchie. Where do I begin? Think James Bond meets a Michelin-starred maître d’ with the warmth of your favorite uncle. He’s got charm for days, intuition like a Jedi, and a sense of humor that makes you feel instantly at ease. You don’t get service from Mr. Frenchie, you get a performance. He doesn’t just serve you; he curates your experience. By the time dessert rolls around, you’re wondering how you ever survived a meal without him. To put it simply: Thomas and Mr. Frenchie are a one-two punch of perfection. They elevate Ember from a great steakhouse to an unforgettable destination. If you’re looking for a night that will spoil every other restaurant experience for the rest of your life, Ember is it. And if you’re lucky enough to be in the care of Thomas and Frenchie, consider it a blessing. 🔥 10 out of 5 stars. Would sell my soul for a reservation. 🔥

My wife and I decided to go and play at the casino at first. Around 730pm, we wanted dinner, Ember looked nice and not too terribly busy. I am so happy we went there. From the start, the staff was exceptionally accommodating. We had a great table and wonderful service. The food! WOW! For starters, we split the wedge salad and crab cakes. Blue cheese dressing was 5 star. Crabcakes were definitely the real deal, phenomenal. We noticed that a lot of folks did order them, so there's that. Entrees ordered; NY strip and baked potato and the Amish chicken. The Prime Select Cut of Beef was absolutely on point, I asked for a med-- cook on it. And that's what I received. Potato was huge and overloaded. My wife thoroughly enjoyed the Amish chicken as well. All this for 160. Plus, take home leftovers. Needless to say, we will absolutely return, and soon! Such an enjoyable dinner, thank you.

We’ve been here to dine on a few occasions. Once for my birthday and once for our Anniversary. Tonight was just a surprise date for me! Like both times before, Ember didn’t disappoint. Our server, Alyssa was excellent. Very attentive and a great personalty. We don’t make it here often, but we’re always glad when we have the opportunity.

The service by frenchie was excellent. It was our anniversary so that served us champaign along with a vertical tasty dessert. The filet was good. (It could of been hotter) the sides of whipped potatoes and wedge salad was very good We highly recommend embers. The piano player was pleasant and a nice surprise. The booth was very comfortable

We really enjoyed the ambiance and great food. Easy parking and you can also enjoy the casino afterwards.

1st time trying Ember, this restaurant didn't disappoint at all. Yes it's pricey but well worth it. Atmosphere was great, smells coming out of kitchen were amazing, staff and management very knowledgeable and attentive. Food was to die for, cleanest oysters on half shell we've had anywhere. 8oz venison steak, lobster tail and wagu beef cheek was perfecto! I would definitely come back and celebrate another mile stone with Ember! Thank you Ryan you were the best server we've ever had!

We went here for our wedding anniversary and they brought us champagne and a dessert that said “Happy 1st anniversary” also a sample of a new food they were trying and a truffle to go!! They were so sweet and the manager (or owner I’m not sure) had incredible hospitality!! Would definitely recommend. The filet and Bison were delicious!!
