For the 4th of July we decided to do the $35 unlimited food/drinks brunch at Ambar on Barracks Row in Capitol Hill. We had been to Ambar for drink (post here) back in May, and that visit we had said then that we wanted to come back and try their food. Their brunch menu is a combination of tapas, sandwiches, eggs, pastries, and crepes. Plus mimosas and bloody marys. We decided to try a few different things since it was an “endless” selection of all plates.
For an appetizer we got the suckling pig (which I am not sure I had ever tried before) and mezze platter (because we love meat & cheese).
For our “main course” we got the roasted mushroom crepe and the ham & cheese crepe. I fell in love with the mushroom crepe and actually ordered another one. We also tried the fried chicken sandwich as well, which was the only thing we did not particularly like as it was not flavorful…
Finally for dessert we tried the fried apple rings and the strawberry waffle. The strawberry waffle with nutella is where it’s at and is a must order!
Over all we loved the experience. The food was flavorful, our waitress was super nice, the drinks were good, and the décor of the place with the wood and unique lights makes it feel like an experience and not just a meal.
Next time we will try for the lunch/dinner!
