    Ambra is the best restaurant in McAllen. I absolutely loved everything about AMBRA, but the cocktails and the service truly stood out. The drinks were crafted to perfection—each sip was a balance of bold flavors and creativity. And Omar’s service? Impeccable. His attention to detail and warm hospitality made the experience even more special. From start to finish, it was an unforgettable night!

    We've been to Ambra many times, they're always great. The food and cocktails do not disappoint. The service is excellent, Sergio has been our server before and he is always nice and attentive.

    Our server Cristina was very attentive and knowledgeable of menu items. Drinks were top notch and meal was delicious. The only negative I would say is music grew louder as evening went which made it more challenging to carry a conversation. All in all, I highly recommend this place for a good dinner outing.
