Ambar Restaurant Reviews
Honestly best Dominican food in town. You will not be disappointed! From the Rabo , churrasco, pollo empanisado to the pepper steak and more !
Was in sleepy hallow exploring with family. Wanted food but every place was so long in terms of wait times. We weren't really trying to be too touristy and seasonal since a bunch of us had been here before. Being Spanish finding this place was great. I love shrimp Alfredo. And their mango juice is 10/10. Don’t sleep on the trails off the beaten path.
Great Dominican spot much more peaceful than Gustico around the corner, and amazing lunch special fares for $12 during the week. Delicious. Good service with a smile, will be back! Also in this small Spanish enclave unusual but they do have their own parking lot!! Literatura street parking as well and plenty some paid some free.

Ambar Restaurant is a simple yet delightful spot for delicious food and exceptional service. Known for its mofongo and Dominican cuisine, it has become a favorite among locals. The garlic roast chicken, white rice, and beans are popular choices, though some find the beans to be lacking. The restaurant’s seafood soup and oxtail stew are highly recommended, especially the seafood soup with its generous lobster pieces and rich broth. The fried chicken is praised as one of the best, crispy but not dry, with large portions that can serve multiple people. Customers also enjoy dishes like pork mofongo, grilled chicken with rice and beans, whole fish with potato salad, and fried trout with rice and beans. The yuca fries with fried cheese and fresh juices are popular, though some suggest reducing the sugar in the drinks. Service is commendable, and Sancocho is served on Mondays and Wednesdays. Overall, Ambar Restaurant offers authentic Dominican cuisine with generous portions in a welcoming environment.
