Failed Experiment in AI Robots

The Sunday service is tailored towards all you can eat $42.99 “Ambar Experience.” At least that is how they apparently program their experimental but very human-like AI robot server. It meets you at the table and slightly overenthusiastically says “I’ll be taking care of you,” and offers a menu with no prices listed other than the $42.99 one. When later told by us that we were not that hungry, and just wanted an entrée, it said “it comes out about the same.” When asked if the Meat Pie was indeed $42.99, a small smoke trail began trickling from its ears, and its eyes went in a circle before acknowledging “no, the Meat Pie does not cost $42.99.” When asked, it was able to deliver a menu with entrée prices listed. About 15 minutes later it returned, beginning by asking if we wanted the “Ambar Experience.” We said no, and stated clearly and slowly that we wanted entrees, which it finally accepted. About 20 minutes later it returned as introduced itself, saying “I’ll be taking care of you.” It appeared to be the same robot in appearance as the earlier one, but if so its memory had been deleted or wiped we assumed. When we noted we had already ordered, it said “no one brought it out yet? Sorry about that.” Fascinating as this all was as an experiment with robotic AI servers, we actually did want a bite to eat, so we left.
This place gets good reviews, and we tried the food once before and it was good, and the music was creative and cool (as is the culture from that part of the world), but we cannot recommend the Sunday “Ambar Experience” at least to those who are not in the AI industry. In any event, with service so slow, we suspect the all-you-can-eat bargain is diminished by the slow roll serving, but this is just conjecture.

Pros: Good food if you can get it brought to you, I hear, Good location

Cons: Absent minded unattentive server, Pressure to have all you can eat

Great brunch. Just ask for the menu with dietary restrictions. I got the bottomless brunch and had a ton to eat, and it was really good. Only negative is that they don't have a vegan bread for the dips

Nice dining experience, fair food

Ambar offers a clearly-labeled albeit limited vegan selection. The Grilled Vegetables and Baked Beans weren’t particularly impressive, but the venue is very nice and staff are knowledgeable and accommodating.

Pros: Veg/an options (and mods) clearly labeled, Good service

Cons: Expensive, Limited vegan selection

If you can handle the price, it’s great!

I’m pretty sure I ended up ordering every vegan item on the unlimited plates brunch menu and they were ALL delicious. It was definitely an expensive/splurge brunch with my friends but the overall experience made it worth the price. Good food, great service, and a cute restaurant! The 25 cent drinks with the unlimited plates was a cool addition too. Just wish I could have eaten more!

Pros: Great veg options, Great service, Nice atmosphere

Cons: Expensive

I don't find the unlimited brunch to be a bad price considering cocktails are 25 cents.
