- KKimberlyVIPWashington, D.C. Area •20 reviews5.0Dined on Jul 22, 2025This place is amazing, and that’s from someone who lived in the Balkans for several years. Each dish is more delicious than the last and for $49.99 all you can eat, it’s a really good deal. Waiters are very knowledgeable (it seems almost all are Serbian, Croatian or Montenegran). Very highly recommend!More infoAmbar - ArlingtonPrice: Expensive• Tapas / Small Plates• Arlington•4.6
