Thank you Marco for helping me organize a perfect birthday dinner for my mother. Service before & during the dinner was impeccable & he went out of his way to make sure we had a great experience!
Très bonne nourriture, la soupe aux lentilles est par contre très décevante. Le korma de légumes est un des meilleurs que nous avons mangé ( incluant en Inde) & le Dahl makhani est correct. Du côté où nous étions, c'était excessivement bruyant à cause des groupes. Nous avions demandé un table à 2 tranquille..
Nous étions deux personnes dans tout le restaurant & notre commande ne s'est pas rendue. La serveuse est venue nous dire après 20 ou 25 minutes d'attente que le cuisinier commençait à s'y mettre...

Located just west of St. Denis street on Rachel, Amber is a pleasant Indian restaurant with a warm ambiance & friendly staff. All the classic dishes are available...for our meal we had Dahl Soup (ok...could have been more flavorful), Chicken Tikka Boti (very good), Shrimp Biryani (very good), Butter Chicken (good...not as seasoned as we are used to), Aloo Gobi (good), Mutter Paneer (also good), Chana Masala (very good) & Garlic Naan (excellent). Overall we had a pleasant experience. Enjoy!
Went with two othere for the first time. The restaurant looks nice inside although It would of been nice if the waitress to tell us that we have to pay at the counter instead of waiting to find out after waiting a long time. Little surprised they need clients to come to them for the bill than them going to the clients.
The chicken was pretty dry unfortunately & I found that the lentil soup wasn't the best. Small soup for 5$... Very overpriced/:
As a foody, it s really hard to find a place that hits all your taste bus. Amber surely did it. Deliciously divine...the taste still lingers in my mind, watering my mouth. That vindaloo lamb was an explosion softened by the delicacy of the butter chicken. But i do not regret the heat & sweat broght by that beef masala.
The food is really very good. The depth of flavor & layers of spices without hitting the wrong note. The servers are very friendly - but the service is too relaxed. Providing a new plate between an app & an entree would be positive. The atmosphere is dark - lighting could be dimmed for a more intimate feel.
Nous avons adoré notre expérience au Amber. Nous étions un groupe de 40 personnes & ils nous ont accueilli les bras ouverts. Nourriture exceptionnelle. Un merci particulier à Molly, Aurore & Marco qui ont assuré le service durant la soirée.

Très moyen pour le prix. Poulet tikka massala avec une sauce très sucrée & peu épicée, comme les préparations industrielles souvent servies dans ce type de restaurant.
Même chose pour le Lassi mangue.
Le Cheese Nan est inmangeable!
& ils osent facturer $40 !
