Welcome to ēmmē — your neighbourhood destination for woodfired flavours, breakfast pitas, and a touch of magic.Located just across from James Street Market, ēmmē is a Mediterranean-inspired restaurant where casual dining meets refined technique. From early mornings serving Five Senses coffee to evenings fuelled by woodfired cooking and European wines, it’s a place to gather and feel at home.Drawing from the philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, we celebrate imperfection with charred edges, seasonal ingredients, and dishes kissed by fire. Every plate—like our signature charred broccoli, fresh seafood over charcoal, or housemade pitas—is layered with care, spice, and soul.When the sun sets, we transform into a moody, candlelit dining room. Founded by Chef Thomas Lian Tze, ēmmē brings a lifetime of hospitality to a warm, unexpected space. It’s more than a restaurant — it’s a celebration of flavour, fire, and community. Come for the food, stay for the vibes.
