Service was fast and friendly and food was freshly prepared. Most intriguing is an accompaniment to many dishes of flash-fried fresh spinach - crisp and flaky, melts in your mouth. Had a bit of an oily feel but it was delicious. Vegetarian dishes are available, but the seafood shines.

This year was my first experience dining at Ambrae House (the name is actually a combination of the owner's daughter's names). In previous years, the music drew me to try the food. (Reminder ~ there might or might be music on a Friday evening during May. It usually occurs on Saturday evenings.) The menu had a variety of entrees for... More

Website is not updated. Went to try "famous" crab cakes and found them closed on a Tuesday evening. Seems they are only open Thursday, Friday, Saturday....

The Ambrae House is the perfect combination of great cuisine, casual but refined atmosphere, and uncomprimising hospitality from its staff. Tired of having to whisper while the Chef is making your carrot rose garnish? Enjoy "big city" food and beverage selection at very modest pricing. The only establishment in Berkeley Springs that will leave you wanting more and recommending to... More

Especially loved the fried spinach. The staff was very good and actuall had personality to interact outsoide of the normal server/diner experience. The owners were ther for both... More

We had really good food there. The house looks really pretty as well, but I have not been upstairs. The service was good and the owner was fun to talk to. It is an old house and beautifully restored.

Rare tuna anyone? Deep fried spinach? Wonderful burgers and wraps and a good selection of cold seasonal beer. Often live music adds the outdoor dining experience around a spacious friendly bar. Tv's allow you to keep tabs on the game while you eat. Love this place!!!

Always a favorite when we come to town. Innovative, delicious drinks, awesome food and service. On recent visit, we went upstairs to check out the accommodations. Gary and Lisa have turned their location into a luxurious retreat from home, with all amenities provided, including comfy robes and big ,beautiful spa tubs. They truly strive to make their guests happy and... More

I've dined here many times with friends and family and one of the best menu items is the fried spinach! Melts in your mouth! Also love the artichoke dip and chips are crisped perfectly! The atmosphere here is very friendly and feels familiar. The inside dining area could be decorated more, as it felt like despite the crowd, something was... More

The staff was really nice, and efficient. The food was great and was cooked perfectly. The atmosphere is really nice. It looks like an old victorian style house that was thoroughly remodeled but still has some of its old charm.
