About the kitchen
Ember & Thyme is a neighborhood restaurant on Hawthorne Boulevard specializing in wood-fired vegetables, handmade pasta, and a concise natural wine list. Chef Mara Okonkwo opened the dining room in 2022 after a decade cooking in farm-to-table kitchens across the Pacific Northwest.
Our QR menu updates nightly based on what arrives from local farms and what the hearth oven can handle during service. Prices on this page reflect the current week; your server confirms totals at the table.

Sourcing
Produce comes from Gathering Hands Farm and Rose City Mushrooms. Flour is milled in Eugene; seafood is line-caught and delivered three times weekly. We compost kitchen trim and return oyster shells to a reef restoration partner on the coast.
