Ambar India is one of the best places in the city to get Indian food by far, that being said it is hard to look at Ambar without seeing Amol next to it. Though it is subjective, there is a...

My parents used to make us come here when I was in high school and I hated it then. But somewhere along the way I found Indian food that I enjoyed (I am not a big fan of spicy things), and came back...

The service at this place is amazing! Another customer dumped an entire glass of water into my chicken curry, thereby ruining it, and just walked away. The servers at Ambar not only moved us to a new table,...

Simply the best! It just is people. I like that you get to choose the hotness of the food, and it's quick! It's crowded the times I have gone, and yes, there is the parking drama. I find the...

This is one of my son's favorite restaurants. The buffet is an excellent value. The samosas are excellent, as is the tandori chicken. The atmosphere is nice, and it never feels too crowded.

Most consider Ambar to be the best Indian food in the city. I won't go that far but it does satisfy. The five or six Indian dishes that I've tried tend to be creamier than the dishes at other Indian...

I hate this place. I will never go back again. First of all, it's insanely overpriced. It probably costs them $1 to make chicken and they charge 14.95. There usually isn't even enough to take home as...

My preference is Amal which is the restaurant right next door. Apparently these two restaurants are owned by feuding brothers. THAT is why they will tow your car!
