About Emberlin
Emberlin is Frantzén Group’s interpretation of a grill restaurant – a glamorous, high-energy destination with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The generous à la carte menu ranges from an extensive crudo selection to dishes from the grill, where carefully selected cuts of meat, fish, and poultry are cooked over an open fire. The lively dining room meets an ambitious bar and a vibrant evening and nightlife scene, inviting guests to enjoy both food and drinks late into the night.
Designed as a high-energy restaurant with a strong connection between kitchen, dining room and bar, Emberlin places great emphasis on craftsmanship, structure and teamwork from day one.
