Customer Reviews
Theres live music on sunday. The staff is super friendly, and the overall atmosphere is upbeat. The salchipapa was great, and the oven pork was flavorful but a little burnt, and dry. I had ordered the chivo (goat), and it was too hard, and chewy to eat so i don’t recommend that dish. The beans tasted like they put plátano in it so it was weird. Not a fan of the beans either. The espresso coffee was freshly brewed in front of me, and tasted great! I had shots of tequila, and a margarita. Though originally I asked for Jameson whisky, and was told they didn’t have that, but its okay.
I only leave bad reviews. And this is one of them. Came here during bar hopping. Horrible service and even worse drinks. Specifically the most disgusting margarita ever. Bartender basically told me to get over it and didn't even offer a different drink.
Worse service! Apparently You're Only Welcome While Chewing. We finished eating about 6 minutes before the game ended, and instead of letting us stay to watch the final moments, a staff member came over and told us we had to leave since we were done eating. Seriously?
Is a very good Ecuadorian bar. Nice and good looking bartenders. They are very pro and give you a good joy in the bar. A good place to come and eat our delicious Ecuadorian food. Also the manager is very friendly and courteous, he's name is Ivan and helps you with whatever you need. The prices on the drinks and food are fair. There is no parking lot since Harrison is a very but very small town, good luck finding parking. Keep it up AMBATEÑITA BAR 🇪🇨👍
Unfriendly staff who laughed at me when I told her what drink I wanted. Left immediately. Now I understand why people say the vibes are off here.
