Went by on Christmas Eve and they were not letting people in the bar without being hotel guests. Ridiculous. Went next door to the dome bar and was promptly served. Even had dinner available. Don’t waste your time at ambar, they try to be elite in a city that can not afford the exclusivity.

Dante was wonderful!! The food was delicious and the service was excellent. I went with a party of 5 and we were all happy with our meal. Make sure you make a reservation because they do get busy for dinner. I would recommend this place.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great experience overall at Ambar Restaurante in El Paso. The service was excellent — friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome the entire time.
The food did take a while to come out, but once it arrived it was well worth the wait. The guacamole was top notch, fresh and full of flavor, and the grilled chicken tinga was absolutely out of this world — easily the standout dish of the meal. One item I’d skip next time is the salmon ceviche, which just didn’t hit the mark for us.
Despite the slower kitchen pace, the quality of most dishes and the great service made this a very enjoyable visit. We’ll definitely be back.

Had the pleasure of dining at Ámbar a few nights ago and was really impressed with the atmosphere and the service provided by our server – Dante – very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu and local history.

Great food in a very nice place! I was a bit hesitant at first — being Mexican, going to a restaurant that offers mexican inspired dishes? But that actually became the reason to give it a try. You can tell the cuisine is a mexican-american blend, which is precisely why it’s so enjoyable — whether you come from one side of the border or the other. Familiar dishes enriched with flavors born from a cultural mix. Special mention to the Tortilla and Chile Verde soups, as well as the ribeye...

We had a reservation and they made us wait for about 10 minutes, even though the restaurant was empty. Our table was next to a very sunny window with sheer curtains, which was very uncomfortable. Two waitresses moved it for us and it was good for about half an hour. We ordered our drinks. The waitress came back 10 minutes later just to tell my husband they didn't have the beer he had ordered. Despite the mediocre customer service, we had to give a mandatory 20% gratuity. The food was very good, though. Are we coming back? I don't think so.
Not sure why so man 1 stars. My own experience was with breakfast - after all, I was staying at the hotel. I found the Farm Omelet to be reasonably priced and very tasty - unusual for a hotel restaurant in my experience. Waitress was very helpful.

Been here a few times , the food is great but the service usually disappoints us almost every single time. The last time , there were maybe 3 parties total in the restaurant but service was below average. We had to call for another waiter for attention and they forgot to bring tostadas for an appetizer we had ordered. (Picture was taken after we received everything)
Added* 09/09 Not sure if it’s a coincidence but I was booked for a reservation and then cancelled , not sure how they got my information cause I have no history of using resy and I called to ask what happened and they said that someone has the same name as me but that it was an accident? … I don’t know what to think about that. Seems off and doesn’t add up. 👎🏼

I really loved this place. It had a very mellow, upscale atmosphere and it’s right in the heart of downtown El Paso. It is right across from The Plaza Theatre and there’s lots of things to explore around, whether you’re a local or a tourist. The food was absolutely delicious, the drinks were great, and the service was outstanding. A must try!
