The 15 Best Restaurants In Capitol Hill 2024

"People love the Balkan restaurant Ambar so much they had to put a hard cap on the time guests can spend there (120 minutes). And for good reason: You can put away a lot of mezze in that time. The menu is $50 per person, no matter how much or how little you eat. Everything is just a few bites, so you can try a bit of everything—though if you’re like us, you’ll want two orders of the black and white, sesame-coated halloumi. Wash it down with some rakia, a classic Balkan spirit made from distilled fermented fruits like pears and pomegranates. Like a lot of the restaurants on Barracks Row, the inside of Ambar looks a little faded, which is probably why most people opt for outdoor seating or an upstairs booth." - madeline weinfield
