This is a new-er restaurant in the Triad. It shares a parking lot with Mad Hatter and parking is sparse during lunch and dinner rush. I really enjoyed talking to the bartenders, servers and hostess. They seem to have a really great work environment here. I was expecting a fast casual or hole in the wall Peruvian restaurant, but it is more modern and has a higher end feel. The menu is affordable. The food specials are a little more pricey, but priced appropriately. I ordered the Ceviche, which was a dinner special. It is very acidic (as expected) and light (not super filling). The sweet potatoes offset the sourness, but I don't think it complimented the dish very well. Overall, I would give the dish a 3.5/5. read more

The restaurant is very simple. The meat tastes delicious, the service is good timing, the ambience is a bit noisy but the food worths.

Must get their fried rice and their pizzas! We have loved this place since day one, the fried rice is the best I've ever had and the leche cookies - my mom won't share with us, we have to get our own orders lol The flank steak has been a favorite but the going favorite right now is the seafood fettuccini (lunch only) read more

Great food and staff! Always a fun place to go with friends. The atmosphere is lively!!

Great food and the ambiance was real nice too. The wait to get the food was rather long. The ember salad was really great. There was a lot of chicken in it and it had just enough dressing read more

This place is amazing! I went to visit my daughter in NC so we went out for dinner we both love Peruvian food so we google this place. At first wasn't so sure but im so glad we did. Even tho was very busy that evening they took care of us quick. We order a lot of different things, even order dishes not in the menu and they made it for us. We order in total about 8 different things including dessert, im talking about papa a la huancaina, ceviche, arroz chaufa, empanadas, lomo saltado, and a few other ones that i cant remember the names. To drink chicha morada and also had desert. I would DEFINITELY go back. The waitress and the crew were so nice. The food there is delicious. read more

We stopped in for lunch at Embur this week and were very pleased with our experience. We were greeted and seated promptly and immediately greeted by our server. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is clean and well spread out. I ordered the Peruvian fried rice with steak and my fiancé ordered the filet entree. The flavors were on point and the steak was so tender we didn't even need a knife! I can't wait to come back and try more items from the menu. My only complaint is it's a bit smoky in the restaurant from the kitchen. If you haven't tried Embur yet, you should!! read more

Best chicken I've ever had in my life! If I lived here I'd be here all the time, so wonderful!!!

Very nice restaurant with creative authentic food. Loved the Peruvian menu items. Try their cerviche it is very good and so is the filet mignon saltado. Topped the dinner off w their dessert made from apples, creme in between 2 puffy layers of crust. Being a fusion restaurant of Peruvian food and Italian dishes, there is something for everyone and you may be surprised to find a new favorite here. Waiters are friendly and knowledgeable so they will be happy to answer any questions about the food. You will also be happy to know that tables are socially distanced and staff wear masks and have sanitizer available as you walk in if needed. Try something different in this one-of-a-kind unique restaurant, you will be glad you stopped in. read more

The food was good, but I didn't care for the waitress. It took a long time for the food to come out.

This place is SO good. I could eat here every single day of my life. The salads are so fresh with quality veggies and produce. Although a smaller restaurant, the atmosphere does not feel chaotic. It actually feels quaint and calming. Great natural light. And the service is great every time! read more

We stopped off here for lunch because we heard it had good reveiws. We went monday afternoon do it wasnt very busy at all. The ambiance in the place isnt the best. It was a small single room and it wanst set up very well. That being said, the place was really clean including the bathrooms. There were two servers working there at the time and they were extremely kind and welcoming. They answered all the questions we had and made sure we were satisfied. For started we ordered the empanadas and they were top notch! Best empanadas ive ever had by far. Theres nothing about them I would change. For my main meal I got the white chicken and house rice. It was good, nothing i would go out of the way to get though. Peruvian isnt my favorite but if its your thing this is a great place to stop. I dont have any real critiques about the food. In the end I would say, try it out! read more

Fantastic food, service, and drinks. We love dining out. Embur has consistently hit all of our marks. Staff, management, food (omg the food!), and the experience, are all top notch. Seating feels like it'd be tight in the dining room, but, after you are seated, it has a nice feel and a consistently cool vibe. read more

The food was delicious and I plan to return in the future. Please go and try for yourself.

Lovely atmosphere, delicious food, affordable options, great service, unique cocktails. Will definitely come back.

Embur - Veggie sandwich with steak fries - Desserts Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

This place is amazing!! My husband and I had the yuquitas first, which we devoured. I had some decaf coffee, very good coffee for a restaurant that doesn't specialize in coffee. I ordered the four seasons pizza, and my husband had the 1/4 dark meat rotisserie chicken plate. It was all perfect! We were here before a concert so we didn't have time to try the dessert. We will definitely return! read more

Go early as it gets crowded. My only criticism is the noise level inside. The food is incredible.

Came here for a family outing, haven't heard of Embur b4 we don't have one in Charlotte! This restaurant is something fit for a King! The smell as soon as you walk in will capture your attention, the smoked chicken smell is for real. The chicken was recommended to me so I tried it along with the fried rice was absolutely awesome! I also tried an empanada it was fresh hot and full of flavors! I will most definitely return and tell as many people about it as possible! Thanks Embur!!! read more

Had dinner here (for my first time) with a friend who goes here often; wow, the food was so good. I let my friend order for us and then we shared everything: -Empanadas (good; my friend said this batch was a bit dough-y, but I didn't mind) -Avocado salad (my friend LOVES this; I thought it was just okay; I would not order again because I enjoyed everything else much more) -Yuquitas a la Huancaina (love yuca fries and these were very good. I don't necessarily know the difference between ordering this appetizer of yucca fries vs. ordering a side dish, which is cheaper, but this app comes with a very good sauce) -Shrimp Iza (loved this shrimp dish; simple, but very good flavor; didn't realize this also comes with yuca, so we had a lot of yuca fries - not complaining at all) *This was my favorite of everything we had -1/4 chicken (white) with Peruvian rice (another delicious dish with a yummy green sauce) -Tiramisu (normally I would not order dessert, but I saw a Yelp photo of the tiramisu and I am 34 weeks pregnant, so I went for it; DELICIOUS) Overall, I enjoyed the meal and would gladly go back! Also, I liked the aesthetic of the space. Every table inside and outside was full on a Wednesday evening; we were glad to have gone early at 5:45pm to beat the rush. read more

This is my second attempt trying to eat here. My second attempt was successful my first attempt was not. They don't give very good customer service to a single person. First time I came here they seated me at the bar and I got completely ignored so I left and they didn't even notice. This time I got seated at a table I did get served and the food was absolutely amazing. As you can see in the picture you only get half of a potato and the salad to go with the steak. I still was kind of hungry after I finished my meal. The steak was absolutely delicious the salad was excellent it had real greens and real lettuce no iceberg lettuce to be found and this one. They did a red wine vinegarette dressing that was really classic. They never ask you to add pepper to it which it really needed. The wine was excellent overpriced but excellent. The customer service this time around was not great but it was better. They cater more to the New Yorkers that have moved down to North Carolina. A huge group of them got here after I have arrived and placed my order. They start receiving bread and appetizers before I got my meal. I had to ask for my dinner and sure enough it was waiting in the windows because I was getting ignored again. So to sum things up the food is fresh and delicious customer service has a long way to go. Back in the day the salad came before your meal and the meal came and your meal came with two sides. Here they count the salad as a side therefore you don't really get enough to eat. I'm going to give it three stars but there's five star potential here increase portion size or more than one side and don't count a salad as a side dish. You do that in good customer service this place is five star all the way read more

I gave Embur 4 stars only because of its inconsistency. I've been a few times and the food was amazing. The bread and pizza dough are absolutely delicious and when you add the garlic/rosemary oil, there doesn't seem to be enough ways to sop up the oil. It's a delight! However, a couple of times have left me a little disappointed in the freshness of the meal. I went for an early lunch and it seemed I was served yesterday's chicken :( The service is also very inconsistent. The last time I was there, the server forgot to refill our waters, and I had to walk to the bar just to get our tab, after waiting for 15 minutes. My advice- go when you aren't in a rush. It is absolutely worth trying, and hopefully my experiences were not the norm and their service has improved. Otherwise, it's a great restaurant with a beautiful, open space. Great for a large party, a couple friends, or by yourself if you want to grab a spot at the bar. read more

This is my bestie's favorite place to have lunch so I've been quite a few times now and have tried almost everything on the menu. Today we both tried the arroz chaufa with beef. Well that beef is filet. I've had the rice before with chicken but was in the mood for beef. Great decision! The beef was cooked to a perfect medium rare, juicy and perfectly seasoned. It melted in my mouth. Simply outstanding. The rice and veggies are always great but that beef, oh my. The portion size is just right for lunch as well. Service is always friendly and efficient. Really love this place for lunch! read more

Yoooo this place is tight as hell. My whole table ordered drinks and the server didn't even card us (we're all underage). My three your old nephew even got to have a sample of the amber on tap and he loved it! The food came out with the wrong sides but the server was cool enough to comp the whole check! Dudes eyes were totally baked so I know he's cool and chill so I definitely tipped my boy 30% and gave him a sample of some gas and my bands EP otw out. Always be plugging Nah I'm kidding. I made all that up. Very good food and service tho 5/5 stars read more

My wife accidently found this place when going to lunch with co-workers and is absolutely thrilled she did. She is forced to be Gluten Free and Embur is one of the few places in town with nearly an entire menu she can eat. But that's just a perk, the food is amazing and is also a little taste of something different in Greensboro, where we have a burger joint on every block. I really can't say anything on the menu isn't worth trying but her absolute favorite is the Lomo Saltado. The wine and beer list is refreshingly good as well. read more

Embur is our go to when we don't feel like cooking, but want a good, healthy-ish meal. I'm not much of a chicken eater, but the half chicken is amazing. The arroz chaufa is excellent as well. Never had a mediocre meal here. read more

Empanadas are excellent! Really has come together as a great place to go. We'll be back soon.

Great taste and value. The salmon is consistently excellent. Good service on a busy night.

Great food, fresh and high quality ingredients. Open kitchen with very friendly staff. The desserts are not heavily sweet. Definitely recommend this place. read more

After striking out at being able to get a table at several places in Greensboro on a Sunday night a Yelp search discovered Embur, which wasn't on our radar. What a find!!!! Phenomenal food, and our server, Natalia, was friendly and such a joy to interact with throughout the evening. We will certainly be back.
