Fresh burrata, slow-cooked tomato marmalade, peppery arugula, and toasted Hinkle’s bread — simple ingredients, layered with bold flavor. A balance of creamy, sweet, tangy, and crisp in every bite.

If you’ve dined at Pepper Place, chances are you’ve seen Chef Ramon Gonzales.

We’re grateful to have Ramon as part of the Pepper Place family as Director of Operations for the award-winning Hot and Hot Fish Club and OvenBird. His presence, leadership and commitment to hospitality help shape the experience across the district every day, from the kitchen to the table.

Fire. Smoke. Simplicity.

Some of the best ingredients need very little. Whole gulf fish, kissed by wood fire, crackling skin, and the unmistakable aroma of live-fire cooking filling the room.
It’s a reminder that great food starts with respect—for the ingredient, the craft, and the flame.

Some nights at OvenBird feel less like dinner and more like gathering around a shared fire.

Wood, smoke, light, conversation—every detail working together to create the experience. From the timber framing the space to the glow from the hearth, the warmth you feel here starts long before the first plate reaches the table.

Built on craftsmanship, community, and the simple pleasure of sharing a meal.

At OvenBird, wood is in every detail.
From the fire that drives our kitchen to the handcrafted slats that frame our space, every grain, crack, and cut tells part of the story. Built with natural materials, shaped by heat, smoke, and time — the same elements that inspire the food coming out of our hearth.

Simple. Honest. Intentional.

Golden hour on the patio, a little fire in the kitchen, and summer on the plate.
Charred, bright, fresh, and meant to be shared outside with a glass in hand. This is the season we wait for at OvenBird.

A little glimpse into the warmth and soul of OvenBird ✨
Hanging above the fire, these birds have become part of the story — rustic, welcoming, and full of character, just like the food and people gathered here each night.

Good food. Open fire. A space that feels like home.
