The Ember & Oak Story
Craft that
honours tradition,
flame that
redefines it.
Born from a singular obsession — the alchemy of fire and Indian spice — Ember & Oak opened its doors on Mayfair's Bruton Place in 2019. Executive Chef Arjun Mehta spent fifteen years across Mumbai, Tokyo, and Copenhagen before returning to his roots, reimagining the subcontinent's greatest flavours through the lens of live-fire cooking.
Every dish is a study in restraint and intensity. Our open kitchen — visible from every table — is a theatre of smoke, char, and precision. We source exclusively from British and Indian artisan producers, forging relationships that span continents and seasons.

What They Say
"The coal-roasted lobster is unlike anything I've tasted in London. Chef Mehta has redefined what Indian fine dining can be."
"As someone who grew up eating incredible Indian food, I was sceptical. Ember & Oak didn't just meet my expectations — it shattered them. The Raan Chop brought tears to my eyes. It tasted like home, but elevated beyond recognition."
"We flew in from Dubai specifically for the tasting menu. Every course was a revelation. The sommelier's pairings were extraordinary — especially the Nashik Chenin with the ember paneer."
