Ambar Capitol Hill is celebrated for its high-quality food, making it a popular choice for many diners. The restaurant is conveniently located just two blocks from the Eastern Market Metro stop, with easy access via metro and bus lines. It offers a Balkan culinary experience centered around meze and small dishes meant to be shared on an all-you-can-eat basis. The second-floor dining area is well-appointed, featuring its own bar and a relaxed atmosphere.
Service throughout the restaurant is fast and friendly, often feeling more like family. The decor creates an authentic vibe that enhances the dining experience. The menu includes a variety of dishes, with some standout options like the Forest Mushroom Crepe, Balkan Salad, Lamb Medallions, Yaga-Roasted Lamb, and Pan-Seared Trout. Many of these dishes, especially those with meat, are complemented by sour cream, which is so enjoyable that some diners even order extra.
The all-you-can-drink feature at $27.99, which includes three drinks or more, is a great value. The brunch menu offers delicious dishes served promptly, with bottomless drinks available. While some dishes like Cevapi Balkan Kebab and Eggplant Moussaka may vary in taste, overall, the food quality remains excellent. The experience is enhanced by attentive service and a lively, authentic atmosphere. A highlight dessert is Baklava served a la Mode. Overall, Ambar Capitol Hill is a worthwhile destination for anyone seeking flavorful Balkan dishes in a welcoming setting.
