It’s about the journey, not the destination. That’s why we took our name from the Amber Road trade route. It reflects everything that makes us special – from our eastern mediterranean roots, to our modern London spirit. It inspired us to channel the flavours of our travels abroad and our heritage into one dining experience. A space where stories exchange hands as freely as the wine flows. This is Amber. A place where all are welcome.

    What a fantastic meal we had at the Amber restaurant. We did not know exactly what to expect but had seen their Facebook page and the amazing food that I could see there was just as fantastic in reality. Our waiter was knowledgeable on the history of the cuisine and was good at giving advice on what to choose and what went well together. As it was my husband's birthday we were treated to a complimentary glass of prosecco each. At the end they also brought our desserts out with a candle in my husband's. We were looking for something different and this certainly fit the bill. I'm afraid I can't remember the names of what we all did but I am attaching photos of some of those things. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

    Incredible food and great service…can’t believe I hadn’t heard about this restaurant before (was recommended by a friend) and not sure why there are empty tables on a Friday night. Everything tasted amazing and we had several dishes including the array of oysters available.
