I recently had the pleasure of dining at Ampersea, and it was truly an exceptional experience from start to finish. The moment we walked in, Joey, the manager/greeter, greeted us with such warmth and enthusiasm that we felt right at home. His kindness set the tone for the entire evening. The service throughout the meal was impeccable—our waiters were attentive without being overbearing, ensuring our drinks were always topped off and checking in just the right amount. A special shout-out goes to Oscar, the bartender, who was absolutely phenomenal. He crafted some of the best cocktails I’ve had in a while, with perfect balance and creativity. Overall, Ampersea delivered on both food and service, and the personal touches from Joey and the rest of the team made it a memorable night. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food, fantastic drinks, and a welcoming atmosphere!

Our experiences at ammoora were truly amazing! From the ambience of the restaurant to the impeccable service to the delicious food, we loved every aspect of our meal. Each dish that we tried was amazing (we particularly loved the chicken rolls and Dubai chocolate crunch bar). The service was also outstanding, everyone was so thoughtful and genuinely went above and beyond to make our dinner memorable! We would highly recommend ammoora!!
