A great way to try new food
Took my daughter here for a celebration dinner because she loves to try new foods, and we’re unfamiliar with Balkan cuisine. The service was wonderful, and our waitress did a great job explaining what the different dishes were. We liked almost e
Great Restaurant!
This spot has many great dishes that you can try for the Balkans, and you can get an unlimited meal where you can order unlimited food from the menu for a certain price. If you are from the Balkans I truly recommend this restaurant, and even if you a
Delicious Birthday Dinner at Ambar
Ambar was an excellent dinner choice for a birthday celebration. Our foursome sat at a hightop table near the bar. Our server, Mike provided terrific guidance and superb service. We enjoyed everything. Especially notable were the mussels, roast lamb,
Great for groups
I was with a group of about 15 for a personal fitness holiday party. We enjoyed everything and most were too full to basically order additional off of the menu. I wish that they would only change out your small plates more often and realized I coul

Service ruined the experience
Came a few years ago for Valentine’s Day and was excited to come back to try their menu for restaurant week. Unfortunately the service was ridiculously slow and had to ask different servers to take our order or to simply refill our water. Without a
Yum!
So yummy and a large variety of food! Great options for vegetarians :) restaurant is beautiful and service is super quick.
No flavor. Beware of Other Reviews
I do not understand why this place gets such high marks. I grew up on Hungarian goulash and have dined extensively on German, Italian, Mexican, Slavic, and Greek food or food with flavors for many years. We were in Europe recently eating food with

One of the best brunches in Arlington! The service is amazing, Wills was our server and he was so attentive and polite. The drinks and food are fantastic, and I can't say enough good things about the service. I'd come back any time!
Great place!
Great place to eat. I was in town on business. Really enjoyed the service and food. Fast and friendly!
What a fantastic experience.
Our waiter, Mauro, was incredibly attentive as soon as we sat down. He personally made sure our pineapple mojito pitcher was taken care of and it certainly set the right tone. The food came out perfectly paced and kept me from bursting at the seams.

This place has a pretty ambiance.
The food was good but not necessarily memorable or good enough to tell someone they have to check it out. The white peach margarita was very good, however, so highly recommend.

Good food, good service

Connect with users posting reservations for Ambar Arlington
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Ambar Arlington. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Ambar Arlington at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Ambar Arlington page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Ambar Arlington to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Ambar Arlington!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
