   Muhammad was an outstanding server. The hostess seating us was very gracious and energetic. Menu is a bit limited to my liking. The chicken fried steak was done well but sauce was too heavy. Meatloaf was also good. Cesar salad had too much dressing and it was too thick. Please lighten it up. Sitting outside was a lovely experience along the river with soft lighting and beautiful patio.

   The scenery overlooking the Riverwalk was very beautiful, and offered a lovely ambiance. Service was fair, with the main feedback centered on timeliness and a few strange interactions (we had a weird encounter that when we left our dirty utensils on the plate to be removed, our waitress took our plates, took a few steps, and came back and asked us to retain them, which me and my wife found odd since they were dirty from our appetizer. The server did give us a new set however after we requested a pair when our entrees arrived. Food was fair overall, the chilaquiles felt a bit heavy on lime, and the pancakes were a bit undercooked and grainy, however the avocado toast was very tasty.

   I was expecting more. The menu was smaller than I anticipated.

   Food and drinks were amazing. Huge portions. Our server was fantastic as well and did everything in his power to make our dinner enjoyable. It was a colder evening and the servers that were attending to the patrons in the outdoor section kept leaving the door open to the indoor seating area which made it extremely uncomfortable. I was cold most of the time. Outside of this, it was a great dinner.

   This was my fourth time at Ambler. The food is always great, but the service varies every night and depending on the waiter. This one was the worst! The manager wasn’t available either. Kudos tor the food and drinks, but the waiter and the time waiting for drinks, appetizers and main course are unacceptable.

   Nothing special. Not worth the price. $60 steak overcooked. Chairs dirty.

   We had a great valentines dine here. Our server Fernando was the best great attitude and work ethic. Highly recommend the ambler, more so for the service. On a busy day to be so attentive, and full of passion to his work check them out!.

    My meal came with fries, didn't order fries, steak or as dry. Had to wait for potatoes. Wife had red snapper, was cold in the middle. We sent it back. Sioux chef brought her a new piece which was nice. She cut into it. It was raw again. Made an excuse it was a thick piece of fish. It's on their regular menu. I forgot my coat on my chair called 15 later and the didn't seem to care. Would not take my phone number. Service was incredible, Bellamy our server was great. Overall this was a very poor experience. Won't do it again
