Amber

My wife and I have been talking about stopping by Amber since it opened and just never got around to it.Last weekend we were walking by with the dogs and noticed they had happy hour all day on Sunday so figured we should check it out.Service was friendly enough, and they were accommodating to the dogs. We ordered drinks (a couple beers and a crush) as well as nachos, a fish sandwich, and a flatbread.The beers were a bit of a disappointment, for a place that made a big deal about their beer selection when they were opening, they didn't have anything especially exciting. What they did have was also a bit ambitiously priced, even during happy hr. These prices were reasonable $6-$7, but not much of a happy hour.My wife enjoyed her fish sandwich, and my flatbread was pretty good. For the price though I found the flatbread to be a bit on the tiny side. The nachos were also fine, but for the money the portion an the quality was a bit lacking...I would consider going back, but the money (~$70) I could have had a better more filling meal across the street at Wiley Gunter's.

Had a good time with my wife. Food was good - bar vibes with tv's playing in the background. Nice spot to hang out with friends, too! Great service.

Great cocktails and beer selection here! Service is fast and friendly, and it's a nice casual spot for happy hour drinks and food.

Very chill atmosphere with a wide variety of craft beer. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Menu has a lot of shareable plates. Recommend trying any of the flat bread!

Recently got the chance to revisit Amber. Again, the beer selection was decent. Honestly, though, you can find a better draft menu literally within a block of here. I ordered the BBQ Chicken flatbread, and it was notably bad. Literally the nicest thing I can say about it is that it has a very nostalgic quality to it because it brought me back to my high school cafeteria days. Charging $13 for that is a bad business practice. Amber needs a major revamp of their food offerings as the quality is surprisingly lacking. One star for a well designed interior. One star for a passable beer selection.

I wanted to like this place a lot but it just didn't hit the spot for me the first to around. I did enjoy that there was outdoor seating, so that's always good on a sunny day. Food was just "meh!" I tried the jerk chicken and potatoes. I found the jerk chicken to lack a little flavor and the potatoes were burnt - maybe that's the vibe they were going for but I wouldn't get it again. Wasn't anything jerk about that chicken ... AT ALL. Drinks were okay. I had the sangria (missing something but I can't put my finger on it - it was slightly refreshing though). Also had a mule which I wasn't mad at. Venue is cute. I would have liked more from the food though. Wouldn't be opposed to trying again.

Amber provided an evening full of solid shareables and a cool, relaxed vibe. Veggie and BBQ chicken flatbreads were even better than they looked, cheese board crostini's were soft yet sturdy and didn't maul the inside of your mouth. Deviled eggs were decent, honey balsamic brussel sprouts were solid, old bay wings were made with old bay hot sauce, so they def brought the heat!

I rarely bother to write reviews about a business unless it's to share what a wonderful experience I had (feel free to check the (3) reviews I've bothered to post over the years). But this has to be the single worst experience I've had ordering carry out (or dining in). Attached are photos of a $14 caprese appetizer and a side of fries. I wasn't expecting a feast, but this is disgraceful. When I asked for a refund or food that matched the photos and the price, the staff member said, I quote, "I can offer more lettuce" and when I shared that was not sufficient, said staff member said, "I guess that's your problem."Everyone has a bad day (especially given the last year and a half). This is more than a bad day. For this reason, I would highly recommend against ordering take-out from this location. It's clear there is no incentive to treat carry out customers the way they treat dine-in customers since they already have your money.

met A friend at 6pm well past the opening time. One bartender waiting on tables and those at bar. Nice guy but unfortunately drink and dining went downhill from there.Put drinks in...we both ordered dirty martinis. He went to bar and came back and said they had no brine or olives. Okayyyy so then I ordered a vodka soda with grapefruit But was told no grapefruit juice or grapefruit vodka so got cranberry instead. Friend ordered bourbon. moving on...We asked about soup of day. mind you it is 6:30 by now--which is normal dinner time. he came back and said soup of day won't be ready for another 45 minutes! How about you state up front on sign what you have and don't have?Has lots of potential but not a well run machine....Not much ambience for a place called amber.

Great little place. drinks were delicious and food was quick, hot, affordable and portion sizes were good. The bread pudding and creme brûlée are a must. Overall great ambiance and service. Will definitely be back.
