This is by far the best restaurant food in Barra de Navidad !! Owner chef Veronica has a diverse and delicious menu and Eduardo, the captain of waiters, excelled. The food is fresh, prepared with love and careful attention to detail. Highly recommended. More

This is the restaurant I always chose for a really special dinner with friends. The wine list is vastly superior to the selection available in most places in this coastal region and the menu is delightful.

The food is still good but not as great as in past years....eg it's hard to find the goat cheese in the goat cheese/basil pizza and the seafood lasagna is sloppy. Prices were always high for this area but worth it. This year, after three tries, we will not be back unless there is some sign of improvement. More

Ambar has been a longstanding favorite during our trips to Barra de Navidad. Although they had to move after the recent hurricane it did not affect the service or the food. Love it. More

We spent several wonderful evenings at Ambar di Mare during our stay in Barra in the week between Christmas and New Year. After a fantastic first meal, my husband booked us in for the next evening to celebrate my birthday. The professional and caring staff made this night one to remember; the head waiter organized a boat trip (just a... More
