When I came too early to a strictly fancy restaurant and they did not have seat available at that time, I needed the place to stay during cold weather outside. Amber west Village was nearby but I found this place to be so welcoming and easy going. I sat at the high-top table because we didn’t have any reservations. I ordered some appetizer and drink and had nice enjoying time. Because I was enjoyed so much so I feel time went by so fast and my waiting time wasn’t anything. If I didn’t have to go to another place, I will probably be hanging out here until the end of the day.

Amber Sushi is a hidden gem on Christopher Street! The food is consistently fresh and delicious. Their yellowtail carpaccio is my absolute favorite – light, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The pork dumplings are perfectly cooked, and the tangerine chicken is so good – crispy, tangy, and just the right amount of sweetness.
The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, but what really stands out is the service. Manager Amy is incredibly nice and attentive, making sure every guest feels taken care of. Highly recommend this place for a casual dinner or a night out with friends!

We were loooking for a cute place for a date night in the area and this place was recommended by TikTok was easy enough to get much busier the longer we were there and it did get much louder. The space was cute and enjoyable, and it was a perfect spot for a catch up with a friend.
However, when it came to the food, it just kind of fell flat. Everything kinda tasted similar. Nothing really stood out. We did one of the group 2 people meals in order to decide of a roll. Nothing was mind blowing or stood out, and no one really finished their plate. I finished all the sushi for them. I would never let sushi sit on a plate.
I probably won’t come back here, but it’s still a cute spot in a cute area but nothing really stands out the staff however we’re fantastic to check in on us. Make sure we’re OK and very attentive. That’s very important for me when I go to restaurants.

It was a truly “lucked out” situation for us – while in a rush to see a show on Barrow street on a Thursday evening, we parked in a nearby garage and didn’t know what we would get in terms of food, so just tried our luck with this eatery. Although its Yelp reviews are not top-notch, we were more than satisfied with our experience. It was apparent that sushi is their main stay, but we decided to order two Thai dishes and a Chinese appetizer. The flavor and taste were authentic enough, and the portions were so generous that we had trouble finishing them. It was such good value! In hindsight, we could have skipped the steamed dumplings – I did find their wrappers a bit too thick, but that didn’t chip away any of my delight. Service was prompt and attentive. The decor was also very tasteful, although the artfully arranged lights made taking photos of the food a bit tricky :-).

I’ve been a loyal customer of Amber, always appreciating the food and prices. However, my recent experience with the pineapple fried rice for takeout was incredibly disappointing. The dish was missing its main star—pineapple. The pieces were so microscopic that they were barely there, and the dish lacked any flavor of pineapple. Instead, it was loaded with cheaper vegetables, which felt like a cost-cutting move.
I understand that the cost of ingredients has risen, but compromising the quality and authenticity of dishes is a major mistake. I would rather pay a slightly higher price for a robust, flavorful dish than pay the same for something subpar and unrecognizable.
This experience has made me reconsider returning, and Amber may have lost a loyal, high-quality customer.

Ordered sushi and they were prepared accordingly. Had the crispy spicy tuna and the salmon and jalapeño and paired them with cold sake. During happy hour you can enjoy sake for $6. Nice place with a nice bar and good prices at West Village.

Absolutely LOVE this spot. It’s always a great vibe and the food & drinks are delicious. They have a tangerine chicken dish that is one of my favorites in the city. We’ve tried just about every special roll and they all are amazing. My favorite might be the scallop tempura or the chelsea roll (pictured below). The spicy Szechuan wontons are a must to start. We also usually get the cheesy wontons which are not on the menu, but just ask!

Enjoyable food and great atmosphere. The duck spring rolls were incredible. I got sushi and everything was excellent in flavor and texture. Very fresh. Everything had excellent presentation as well.

Amber is a cool Asian fusion spot where you can try lots of light bites. I had the tuna martini (it wasn’t listed in the picture suggestions, but you can have salmon or tuna), duck spring rolls, a few pieces of eel sushi and a few other sushi pieces a la carte. Everything was generally good–nothing wowed me but the duck spring rolls (which are popular in their reviews) were definitely worth a try. The “martini” was good as well, just tough to eat with chopsticks. I will say, the eel was a little spiny in certain parts. The atmosphere is pretty nice, it’s not necessarily a quiet spot but it’s well decorated. They had a little birthday dessert for someone near our table too! Service was a bit hit or miss, they either were super attentive or there were long stretches without, particularly towards the end when it was time for the check. All in all, my friend and I got a lot of things and it was only ~$40 per person, which is very reasonable for the West Village!

Absolutely recommend Amber for the great service provided, nice explanation of menu items and a very tasty experience. My starter was the Shrimp Shumai and the main dish I ordered was the Chelsea Special Roll. I would definitely reorder the same meal but next time I’ll try something different. This place has an awesome vibe and I enjoyed sitting at the bar. Don’t miss out on this gem!
