Modern restaurant & bar serving Mediterranean cuisine all day

This vegetarian fried cauliflower from @amber.ldn is one of the best dishes I've eaten this year. .

They also do an amazing lamb shoulder dish. Halal available. Don't order any grilled items due to cross contamination chance.

Amber Restaurant

Really nice and friendly place with lovely service done by very polite waitresses. The breakfast was really great, latte good. There is carafe of water for any guest for free - if only more restaurants did this. I really recommend this place.

My friend and I were on the hunt for a nice spot to catch up, and since she’s vegetarian, we figured Amber would be a great choice—and it totally was! Even though we showed up 30 minutes early (classic us), the team greeted us warmly and got us seated right away.

The vibe of the place? So cozy. Loved the wooden furniture, plants everywhere, and the open kitchen giving off all the right energy. It was a long-overdue catch-up session, so shoutout to the team for being super patient with us as we took our sweet time to order.

We kicked things off with a great bottle of wine and ordered a bunch of dishes to share. One thing we loved was how the food arrived as it was ready—none of that overwhelming table-juggling. It gave us space to enjoy each dish properly. Speaking of food, we tried the bread basket, hummus gnocchi, crawling flower, torched sea bream, prawns in garlic oil, grilled courgettes, and smoked potatoes. Every single thing was chef’s kiss delicious.

The service? Absolutely top-notch. They really made it the perfect girls’ night out. Highly recommend Amber—it’s a gem!

I live nearby but had never been to Amber, and I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The ambiance is serene and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a relaxed meal. The service was warm and attentive, making me feel truly welcomed. And the food—simply outstanding. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and bursting with flavor. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and will definitely be returning.

Had great experience here - amazing flavours. Highly recommend the courgette fritters and cauliflower plates. The deserts were creative and delicious.

Amazing cocktails and great food: the gnocchis were excellent, the lamb surprising and the green crunch a welcome freshness!
Staff was very friendly and we really loved the ambiance (perhaps a little too dimly lit, but I loved the cozy vibes!). All in all the best dinner we had in London!

Our chicken and lamb are Halal but some dishes are cooked with wine etc. Please ask a member of staff for clarification.
