EMBERZ Restaurant gives Ascot Park Hotel a dining room with an identity of its own. Set at the corner of Tay Street and Racecourse Road, it welcomes local diners as well as travellers for breakfast and dinner, with courtyard lunch service adding an outdoor option. Reservations, children's dining and arrangements for groups make the restaurant useful for everything from a quiet meal to a family occasion or organised gathering.

Dinner can begin with familiar comfort or sharper, more contemporary combinations. Seafood chowder and garlic bread sit alongside tiger prawns with smoked cauliflower, chorizo and mandarin, while calamari is matched with burnt-orange aioli and nam jim. Croquettes provide another smaller bite, and diners wanting a lighter plate can choose a Thai beef salad, chicken salad or sliders before committing to a main course.

The main dishes place Southland ingredients within a broad modern New Zealand menu. Whole sole comes with butter-bean cassoulet and tamarind labneh, while cauliflower risotto supplies a fully vegan option. Lamb loin is paired with dukkah, honeyed miso parsnip and whipped feta; beef cheek and tenderloin appear together as a duet; and venison rib rack meets truffle mash, merlot pear and espresso jus. Blue cod, braised lamb and marinated chicken add further routes through the menu.

EMBERZ is not confined to evening dining. Breakfast ranges from eggs Benedict, waffles and French toast to a breakfast burrito, yoghurt parfait and a substantial cooked plate. Later in the day, dessert might be potted cheesecake, gingerbread pudding, vanilla crème brûlée, dark-chocolate Amaretto marquise or a vegan baklava custard tart. That span, together with dietary options and group service, gives the restaurant more flexibility than a typical hotel dining room.
