Welcome

We make the best burger in town

Emberjack started in 2014 as a food truck with one flat-top, one grill and a queue around the block. We still grind our beef every morning, bake our buns with a local bakery and cook every patty over live fire, to order.

Tessa Reyes
The Emberjack Classic tastes like it came straight off a backyard fire, smoky and juicy with a proper crust. Our order was at the door in 30 minutes and the fries were still crisp.
