The Lowdown · AI digest
How we read reviews →Melbourne's wine bar institution, firing chicken skin, eel toast and wagyu rump over coals.
A dimly lit, cosy wine bar with an open kitchen and wood-fire grill, balancing intimate date-night ambience with a lively, often-full dining room.
Fire and coal cooking for meats and vegetables, an extensive and eclectic wine list with knowledgeable staff pairings, and a regularly changing seasonal menu.
Not applicable. Embla is a modern, chef-driven wine bar concept rather than a heritage national cuisine.
Most diners see it as worth the premium for the fire-cooked cooking and wine selection, though a few found individual dishes like the $95 steak overpriced for the portion.
