I decided to give this place a shot while free for lunch one day and was pleasantly surprised. This…read morehas been my favorite restaurant of 2026 so far from the quality ingredients making up the food to the superb service offered by the staff. I got here as they opened on Sunday, and it got packed relatively quickly. I'd recommend having a reservation if you're planning to visit during busier timeframes like this. I was seated promptly by attentive staff, and quickly had both food and drink menus to begin ordering. I was looking for something tasty without being too heavy, and settled on the Little Hans Vienna Lager along with the 8 oz steak burger and fries. The beer had amazing flavor similar to Devil's Backbone Vienna Lager with a good, crisp finish. The burger meal, described with "Tillamook cheddar cheese, caramelized onion & bacon jam, beef fat aioli, grilled potato roll, truffle fries", was arguablely the best burger and fries I've ever had in my life. Everything tasted fresh, and the flavor of the wood-fired grill certainly complemented the meat. The house-made pickles were a great touch to add another layer of complexity to the burger. I could tell the fries were fresh cut and never frozen. The truffle oil made these even more amazing. The manager offered and brought a special sauce to try that they normally serve with their chicken chicken sandwich that was superbly tasty and tangy. More than impressed with my entree, I elected to try a desert and was recommended the S'mores pie by my waitress. The deliciously buttery crust was my favorite part of the ensemble and blended well with the savory chocolate filling topped with a toasted marshmallow. While a bit pricey for lunch compared to most places, I was more than satisfied with the offerings provided here and would love to visit Ember and Iron again. Give my number one choice of 2026 thus far some love!

I ordered the rib eye medium. The rib eye was mostly fat. I expect some with this cut but it was too much. The side for both dishes were very good. We ordered the corn bread in cast iron and it was excellent. I hate giving bad reviews but I have to this time. We won't complain during the meal either. I apologize for this review but going out a meal is special and we expected more.

The restaurant overlooks the beautiful golf course with plenty of great views. The menu has about six appetizers, three salads, and ten sandwiches including wings and a cauliflower flatbread. I had the smoked brisket sandwich with fries, and another member of our party had it with coleslaw. A third party member had the cauliflower flatbread with shrimp added. The brisket sandwich was plentiful and delicious. The flatbread was also very tasty. Service was good from Sandra.

The menu is small but I still had a hard time deciding from tempting choices. The item I really wanted was the hot pretzel but I knew I had to have something more balanced. I also knew I could do that in addition to something else. We finally agreed to order one for the table. OMG...don't miss it. We loved each having a taste. It comes hanging with a great dip and is impressive. Wish I'd gotten a photo, but we were so hungry, we just dug in. I had a grown up grill cheese with tomato and bacon on thick sliced bread, which was tasty. The burger was deemed done as requested. The chicken sandwich was also pronounced good. The pretzel is the item we would all order again. One of my guests went back the next day and ordered it again for himself with the burger.

With open lines of communication, they were communicative, ensuring that our needs were met. I was very impressed with how they ensure customer satisfaction. This was my first time here, but I came with friends who had been here several times. The chicken wrap smelled outstanding and looked great. Very robust with chicken! The meatloaf my friend said was phenomenal and interestingly enough they do make it with milk. The Philly cheesesteak looked really great. The chicken pot pie however I will say was definitely not a fan favorite here. I had a different vision of pot pie, which this was not it rather it was the fact on the salty side from me. Not sure what the base was but flavor wise it definitely was not for me. But on a positive note, it was made with white meat chicken. The biscuit on top not a fan favored either. Overall, the five stars goes to the outstanding service we received and the reviews of my friends and their meal. They were very gracious here at the restaurant with taking care of the pot pie since it was not eaten. When I return (and it's a customer service that is bringing me back) I'm gonna try the chicken wrap because it smelled fantastic and looked great

I've included a screenshot from Google Maps to help out with finding them. I went with the Crab Quiche, which was decent. It comes with a side of hash browns which were fantastic. I normally wouldn't go on about hash browns but these were REALLY good! The thing that held the quiche back from being great was that there wasn't a whole lot of crab meat. Lauren had the Breakfast Burrito, added sausage to it and asked for a side of Pico which is something she learned from a previous visit. She's had this burrito before and loves it. She was going on and on about how much she loves it today as well. She actually said "I wish this place was closer to our house because we'd be here way more often" to which I replied "yeah but we have University Diner right by our house, so we're not hurting". Which leads me to a very funny situation: A gentleman showed up at our table like 30 seconds later and said "Hi, I hear you guys go to University Diner? Do you know Andrew? He's my son". We were like "YES! We know Andy!" but the funnier thing was like Lauren had a revelation and said "OH! THAT'S why I love this breakfast burrito so much!"

It all started with our server, Kelly who had an amazing energy and an all-around great enthusiasm. We ordered appetizers including fried pickles, Reuben egg rolls, and the Irish nachos with corned beef. All were very good, the Reuben egg rolls being the best. The environment is energetic - it seems they run a lot of daily specials and special activities including bingo, wing nights, etc. during our visit, the bar area was quite full even around 5 pm, and the dining room was filling up in anticipation of bingo. We left before bingo, but I'm sure my wife will be back to enjoy a bingo night in the future. With good food, amazing service, and reasonable pricing, Donovan's is a great option in the area.

Just want to tell you about an absolutely horrible experience we had at this restaurant…read more Came in with our family of 5 Ordered Salad 10 piece boneless wings - 2 flavors came out lukewarm warm 10 piece wings - 2 flavors came out cold 10 piece wings - 2 flavors came out cold 10 piece wings - 2 flavors asked for well done came out cold Kids meal came out like warm We told the server she was like no worries I will have them remade. Our 13 year old realized he made a mistake and wanted boneless instead of classic and asked since she was having them remade if he could get them boneless, she said yes. When we got our new wings 1 set of 10 came right warm not hot. The classic she had changed to boneless came in flavors no one asked for. And the other set of boneless came in another set of flavors no one asked for We told her and she said said sorry but In the end we ended up eating and having to settle for the incorrect food. When she asked if we wanted a box she brought it to us. And end up taking the extra wings that were the wrong flavors anyways and trashing them so we couldn't take them home. And to top it off when we walked up to the restaurant 6 staff members were hanging out outside and when we left 6 were still hanging out outside including our server who just left us. Horrible experience would not recommend this place
