Review Embers Grill And Burger - Heathmont

Great value, generous portions and friendly. An amazing place to dine in as they offer a variety of dishes on their menu and have an outdoor area. They use the fresh ingredients and each dish we ordered was so flavoursome and tasty. I'd recommend their grilled meats as the 1/4 chicken was so juicy and tender and the skewers were nicely charred and flavoured. Their fried salt and pepper calamari was delicious - lightly salted and the calamari was crispy and remained that way till the end. The honey, garlic and soy chicken wings are amazing. Never have I tasted such a crispy batter with juicy meats. Overall, a variety of dishes on their menu.

Thank you Embers for your hospitality and service and amazing food!! Everything was delicious, literally finger licking good. It was amazing to also discover that everything is freshly made in house down to the sauces and marinades using fresh and nature ingredients, such as using apples and berries for sweetness and colour! Everything on the menu is a must try especially the burgers, grilled chicken and skewers. The spicy sauces really pack a good hit!

If you’re craving for a healthy but delicious option for lunch or dinner, I highly recommend visiting Embers Grill. We ordered: ½ Grilled Chicken with Peruvian spice rub, shredded sumac carrot and sweet potato chips. Embers Signature Burger Sister South Raspberry Relief Cocktail I was surprised how generous the portion was, it was great value. All the dishes were flavourful and delicious, you can tell that they use fresh ingredients. My fav was the grilled chicken with sweet potato chips. Must try!!

It's easy to see why this place is rated so high. Good value, tasty burgers and grilled chicken in a relaxed atmosphere. I recommend the loaded fries: it's got chunks of fried chicken in it 👍👍👍

The tastiest skewers I’ve had in my life. Peruvian sauce on the beef was recommended by the amazingly kind chef and it did not disappoint. Delicious, heathy and affordable food that left me full and completely satisfied. Can’t wait to come back again!

Drove >30min just to try this joint based on the reviews. We weren’t disappointed! Tried the honey soy chicken wings. Signature burger, spicy Peruvian and our baby had the grilled chicken w/ brown rice. All were great. Next time I think will spruce up the signature with a double patty! I needed more but not necessarily another burger. 😅 but of the 2 the best I think would be the spicy Peruvian. The flavours aren’t naturally what you’d expect from a burger but it works! The chicken wings were quite Korean?? 😅 and the grilled chicken?!? woah man. Yum! Chargrilled with right balance of salt and something else.. couldn’t pin point it. only got small sample as needed to feed the kid! lol anyhoo will be back! 👍

What an amazing place. The chicken is so good. And the loaded fries and gravy! Everything was fresh and well presented. Lovely staff and a nice space. Will be back again.

So much deliciousness and good vibes in Embers grill and burger Drove an hour to this place and kept telling myself it's better be worth it and you know what? It's so mind blowing The grilled chicken and skewers was so incredible and moist paired with fresh salad and beautiful dressing If you are the local to them, lucky you🥳🥰 If you are not, it's absolutely worth the ride ✅️Roasted half chicken with Peruvian sauce ✅️Fried Salt Pepper calamari ✅️Chicken skewers ✅️Beef skewers ✅️Southern Chicks burger ✅️Double trouble burger ✅️Gangnam loaded fries

DISAPPOINTING! We ordered here because of the great reviews but I just don't get the hype. We got the falafel burger and it was bland and boring, and their only meat free option. We also got the "signature" burger, and honestly if that's their signature dish I'd hate to see what the other burgers are like. Again, it was rather flavourless and had an aroma that I can only describe, and I'm sorry to say this, as off. As in spoiled. Off putting to say the least. We also ordered a large fries with spicy salt (extra 20 cents for that, thanks very much) They were luke warm and soggy, with no trace of the aforementioned 20 cent spicy salt. We only managed to eat half, and threw the rest in the bin. In conclusion, we simply won't be returning. There are at least 4 other burger joints within 5 kms that are MUCH better. Do yourself a favour and go there instead.

The juiciest chicken I’ve had in a long time paired with Peruvian spice rub - flavour sensation

Tried their double trouble and chicken burger. Impressed with both of them. They made the order pretty quick as well. Will definitely order back

Best service and best food going.

We recently dined at embers, and loved our experience! Here is a few of our highlights. If you want to really get into the flavour of this delicious place, Embers signature burger is 100% the burger to choose. The combination of onion rings together with a juicy beef patty is simply delicious and will leave you full for days! If you’re looking for a good snack the gravy chips are a way to go! The perfect blend of sauce makes them absolutely delicious, you’ll be licking your fingers all night long. If you’re brave enough to try this burger, then the double trouble is the one for you! The inclusion of both fried chicken and a beef patty is something you don’t see every day and should definitely not be missed when visiting this Heathmont restaurant! The flavors really compliment each other to make this unbelievable burger! There was no need for any dipping sauce for the salt and pepper calamari, it was packed with flavour. It was a great addition to the meal<br/>Our feast included a whole chicken that was basted in a garlic, lemon herb basting that flavoured the succulent chicken. The overall flavour was delicious and gave a home cooked feel to the meal.Chicken skewers had an unexpected flavour of maple and bbq which collaborated to make you want to eat more.<br/><br/>If you’re after the perfect cocktail to pair with your meal then embers has you covered! Their Raspberry Relief and Passionate Overtures cocktails are sweet and delicious!<br/><br/>The service is very fast and efficient. Definitely a place to both eat at, and take food from on the go! The staff are friendly and make great recommendations. We loved the food they chose for us!

Went there with Groupon voucher, the girl at the counter almost put our order through but this old lady came up running from back and refused to redeem the voucher and started being very arrogant and disrespectful Because we didn’t make a booking in advance, instead telling us politely and respectfully this women started yelling that we are here making money if you want you have to order from the menu bla bla ....never had such a bad experience in my life, this stupid woman literally spoiled our day. Please don’t even think about going to this place if you have some expectation of their customer service.

Embers and Grill in Heathmont is a must visit if you’re ever passing through this suburb!<br/><br/>Their service is outstanding and the owner is a very friendly lady! We were served promptly and everything came to a very high standard. <br/><br/>The loaded fried chicken fries were out of this world!! The chicken was crispy and cooked to perfection and the sauce really added to the overall taste of the fries. <br/><br/>The burgers were also next level! If you’re feeling adventurous definitely try the double trouble burger. It includes fried chicken as well as a beef patty but highly recommended if you’re after a very big challenge!<br/><br/>The cocktails we ordered were very sweet and delicious, the perfect way to wash down your delicious meal!<br/><br/>Overall, this place has it all - definitely recommend coming to try some food at this restaurant, you won’t be disappointed

This place is great. Yesterday was my first visit and as soon as I walked in I could tell it was going to be good. The smell from the grill was amazing! The food that others we’re eating looked great. Our meals were delicious, massive and so filling. I’ll definitely be back. Also the female staff member (I got the feeling she was the owner/manager) was super friendly too!

Embers is my go place to eat 😍 I love that I can still eat clean while I’m prepping for my comps. Best satay skewers ever 😍 my order always comes out quick too!

The shop is fairly small and filled up quite quickly after arriving with the dinner rush. Very happy with friendly staff and timely meals! Decent burgers with a range of roast meats, salads and loaded chips to also choose from!

I don’t always order falafel burgers at a burger joint but was actually really impressed by the freshness and lightness that was going on in this burger. The sweet potato chips were yum and the chicken breast skewers were so juicy and to die for!!! Simplistic food can taste delicious as proven by this place :)

Embers grill is our go-to for healthy take out. It's delicious and the vibe within the restaurant is awesome! I approached the owner Yenni who is so friendly and lovely for catering for my 30th birthday at home as we love her food so much, and wow did she deliver!! She was very reasonably priced and so great to deal with. She provided many types of gourmet finger food with plenty to go round for my party of approx. 70 people. Soo many of my guests commented on how delicious the food was! And there was nothing left the next morning, it was the perfect amount! On the night, I did not need to lift a finger and could relax and mingle with every one as I trusted her in doing a perfect job. She even got out her professional camera to take shots we'll keep forever as a bonus! Thank you so much Yenni for making my birthday amazing!

A great local business that served up great food and everything are homemade including their sauces. You can definitely taste the difference. We had:<br/>- Embers signature <br/>- 1/2 chicken w smoky bbq & maple and peruvian spice rub<br/>- fried salt & pepper calamari<br/>- beef skewers with lemon garlic & thyme<br/>All meal comes with a choice of salad and chips or fluffy brown rice which makes it such good value. The burger was nice, the chicken was said to cooked in a water bath so it is very moist and juicy and with that basting sauce... so good! The beef skewers were also tasty and flavourful. <br/>They also do take away so if you don’t feel like going out, just give them a call. Highly recommended this joint!

Embers is an absolute neighbourhood gem tucked away in the shops near Heathmont station. <br/><br/>We were invited to try a range of products from their menu and were blown away by the amazing quality and flavours on offer. We will definitely be returning especially because all their sauces are made in-house and are gluten free. The potato chips are also coeliac friendly as they are cooked in their own fryer. If we lived closer we would be here every week! <br/><br/>We tried:<br/>🍗 Crispy Chicken Wings in honey garlic & Embers hot sauce<br/>🍗 1/2 roast chicken basted in Peruvian spice rub & Embers hot sauce<br/>🍗 Chicken breast skewers in satay sauce<br/>🍗 Sister South loaded fries with southern fried chicken & ranch sauce<br/>🍔 Double Trouble Burger with a beef patty and southern fried chicken<br/><br/>The wings were superb - just the perfect crunch and batter to wing ratio. The honey garlic dressing is amazing. Also loved the satay sauce on the succulent skewers and the burger, although massive, was also delicious. Next time I would just get the beef on it’s own. Also loved their gourmet salads, both the shredded sumac carrot and quinoa with roasted pumpkin tabouleh were delicious meals in and of themselves! The sweet potato chips are one of the best I’ve tried - I was so full but still trying to finish them!<br/><br/>If you’re in the area you definitely need to give Embers a try!

This was such a pleasant surprise! I had driven past a few days earlier and noticed a new burger/grill place and wanted to try it. So glad we did! We shared a grill plate with grilled calamari, slaw and chips and the calamari was fresh and full of flavour, the salad was light, fresh and perfectly dressed and great chips also. We also tried their honey soy chicken wings and they were crunchy, sweet and sticky and delicious. This is not your normal meat and salad fare. The chef here knows flavour and I highly recommend you give this place a go. We will be back!

Highly rate this place 👌. The meat is so flavoursome because all the bastings are house made and then cooked over hot lava rocks. Salads are fresh and tasty. Talking about the basting and salad they are all gluten free! Personal favourite was the smokey bbq and satay basting 🤤.<br/>Service is also very good, from the moment we walked in to leaving we felt welcomed.<br/><br/>I had a chance to chat with Yenni the owner and her passion to help the youths in the community is so inspiring.<br/><br/>Highly recommend Embers if you're after a healthy tasty meal in a beautiful part of Victoria.

We absolutely loved the food here at Embers Grill & Burger! There are a lot of great options which are not just delicious, but also healthy too! Absolute win! We tried a few of their dishes and were left satisfied and wanting for more... Everything was cooked perfectly and their hot sauce and peruvian sauce were amazing guys! Portions are massive as well! Here are some of the dishes we tried:<br/>Grilled satay beef skewers served with quinoa tabouleh salad and sweet potato chips<br/>.<br/>Grilled Peruvian and Embers hot sauce half a chicken served with carrot summac currant salad and chips<br/>.<br/>Salt and pepper calamari served with garden salad and fluffy brown rice<br/>.<br/>Double Trouble<br/>Grain fed beef patty, Southern fried chicken, cheddar, lettuce, tomato, pickled cucumber & chipotle mayo<br/>.<br/>And their newest menu which is a sweet one - amazing buttermilk waffles.... with apple and raspberry crumble, vanilla ice cream and hot raspberry custard<br/>.<br/>Absolutely loved their menu, so much amazing flavour combinations! Definitely worth the visit!

Such fresh amazing food, clean and not oily. Amazing customer service! A nice place to go with friends or family! Even for a healthy clean meal there’s plenty of options. Highly recommend

Had the 1/2 chicken with lemon, garlic and thyme base. Absolutely delicious. Also got the spicy salt chips which were delicious. So fresh and a really enjoyable meal. Little bit pricey, but you are absolutely getting your money's worth. I'd describe it as a better Nando's. Thanks again Embers.

Embers Grill is a great addition to the Heathmont food scene. Serving up a build your own menu of grilled meat and seafood, burgers and salads, it’s a great place for locals who looking for a fresh feed that’s reasonably priced! <br/><br/>Protein options include salmon, chicken, beef or lamb skewers, pork chops and calamari. The basting sauces are all made in-house and you can watch while they flame grill your dishes. Who doesn’t love a bit of drama with their meal? You can select from several different salads, plus white or brown rice, fries, or upgrade to sweet potato fries for a couple of extra bucks. They also offer family packs, a good selection of burgers (with a falafel veggie option) and loaded fries. There really is something for everyone.<br/>Gluten free catered for on request.<br/><br/>We had the Grilled Salmon with lemon, garlic and thyme basting sauce & the quinoa & roasted pumpkin salad. The serving is a really good size with a huge pile of fresh salad (just the right amount of dressing) a good portion of salmon, fresh and succulent. I loved the zesty lemon baste, a really good accompaniment to the salmon and nice and light and fresh. We upgraded to the sweet potato chips which were soft and fluffy with a lovely sweet flavour.<br/><br/>We also had the Embers Signature burger 15 + side of fries for 3.2<br/>Good quality beef patty, nice fresh ingredients. We loved the house-made smokey bbq sauce, a gentle smokiness, not too sweet as some bbq sauces can be, a really great compliment to this burger. The salad was crispy and the tasty onion rings giving a nice crunch. The bacon was flavoursome and cooked perfectly. This is another generous serve and in retrospect we actually didn’t need to order the fries on top, however this would still be decent value at $18.20 for a home made, freshly grilled burger with the lot + fries.<br/><br/>We found the service to be welcoming and friendly and the food came out pretty quickly. It was nice to be able to see it being cooked over the bbq flame, and we loved all the home made basting sauces. They currently don’t serve alcohol but the liquor license should be in place in time for the end of April.  We would definitely recommend Embers for a great, fresh, casual meal if you're in the area.

I went to Embers with couple of friends first time over the weekend and we were impressed with the overall presentations of the restaurant, clean, bright and not to mention the owner is very down to earth..things that I always appreciate a lot.<br/>I had grilled Chicken skewers w/ peruvian spice rubs which were so delicious and perfectly cooked! We also had their in-house hot sauce on the side and this sauce by far one of best I have ever tasted. I also had the two of their burgers the Cheese Me Over and the Double Trouble which were pretty good. Their menu is so broad which will ensure you can take just about any of your friends/family over to enjoy their humble dishes.

With a very affordable price tag and more than generous serving sizes, Embers offers a seemingly no compromise on an amazing grill and great value.<br/>The Peruvian Spice Rub with their signature Grilled Chicken is a must, and we are sure that Embers Grill is destined to become a local’s favourite.

I have been to Embers a few times now and their burgers are always incredible, strongly recommend the signature burger.<br/><br/>Will definitely be back to get it again!

Had the calamari the first time and brought my family back again a few days later. Had the southern fried chicken burger which was super succulent and delicious. Food is fresh and delicious with house made sauces 😍<br/>A cut above the rest! We will be back.

Been here a few times now and would happily recommend it to anyone. <br/><br/>Burgers are amazing and the chips are good without being amazing. <br/><br/>Atmosphere is also quite pleasant.

Real rating: 3.5 <br/><br/>Ordered ubereats last night from Embers. My husband had a burger and I had the calamari with a market salad and brown rice. I wish there was an option where i could just order calamari with salad and no rice or chips (like Hunky Dory). Calarmari was pretty good, however the chips were soggy and mushy. Hubby liked the burger. I'm sure it would be better eat in, our uber driver had another order to drop off, so by the time it reached us it was relatively cold (not their fault so haven't marked down for that.

First time ordering - beautiful chicken skewers with lemon and thyme marinade. Chicken juicy and tender. Ordered rice and it wasn't available. Communicated to me quickly with generous alternative choices. Will be ordering again. Happy it's in the local area!

Highly recommended, a fantastic addition to Heathmont. The food is outstanding! Have worked our way through much of the menu, even though it's only been open about 2 months. This place has become a favorite. <br/><br/>Reasonably priced with generous serves. Ambiance is lovely to dine in & they also do takeaways. <br/><br/>Great to be able to get a whole cooked chicken by itself or in a pack  They also have a family option which combines chicken with burgers which is great for us.

Went to Embers Grill for lunch, we ordered the pork chop with Embers hot sauce, 1/2 chicken, cheeseburger, garden salad and chips. The food was freshly cooked and tasted delicious. Staff was super friendly and cafe extremely clean. Highly recommended to try !!

Got takeaway dinner from here last night. I had 1/4 chicken with peruvian spice rub & quinoa salad & rice. Everything was delicious. $17.50 cost expensive & charged $3 extra for seasonal salad I ordered. Other guys all ordered burger combos & enjoyed them.

Tried this newly opened burger and grill place in Heathmont Village for the first time. Had the 1/4 chicken with Peruvian spice rub and accompanying salad. Was absolutely delicious... chicken was cooked to perfection and the basting was next level. The broccoli based salad made it a really nice healthy meal. Shop fitout is also brand new and really slick... gonna be a regular at this place.
