"My wife and I booked on the Saturday Evening for 20:00 and, after reading the reviews, had high expectations. The restaurant was busy on our arrival and we were not given a choice of table but put at the back in a dark corner. I noticed another free table adjacent which was better positioned so asked to be moved and, after much checking with the manager, we were moved. The table was still not really ideal for a couple wanting to have a nice meal and conversation since it was placed right next to a table of 8 having a 30th Birthday party and being very noisy all evening. Service was, at best, mediocre and the waiter even forgot to bring a second glass of wine that I ordered mid main course. Most of the attention seemed to be on the party table and we felt quite neglected. Service was slow and our meal took a total of 2.5 hours. We didn't bother with a desert or coffee as were becoming quite exasperated at the end of the main course. Food was very good and very enjoyable but, for a bill of approx. £110 for the two for the two of us with a bottle of rose and a single extra glass of red (should have been 2 had the waiter remembered it was not worth the money. Parties and groups should be kept separate from couples wishing to dine together its common sense !! So overall, not great considering the price, location and our expectations all let down by a general management style (or lack of! also no phone signal in the location and no wiFi available so like being in the dark ages. One positive, besides the food was the two musicians playing the piano and violin which, we were occasionally able to hear over the raucous noise from the group on the adjacent table."

I can't comment on my visit in the ambrette. the reason is that the restaurant does not open until 17.30 clock, but I had managed to book a table with their website for 4.30 clock!

perfect place to have a birthday meal with the family. many special touches we had not expected lead to a great evening. one of our party is vegan and she is not a problem for her...will definitely recommend and will soon go again

A real treat! Wonderful food and fantastic service! We were celebrating our daughter's graduation and were surprised by the waiter with a lovely extra pudding course wishing her many congratulations. Delicious menu and very reasonable considering the high quality of the meal.

Fantastic food and amazing service. Went for my wife's birthday which I mentioned when booking. Were extremely well looked after by Ralf the very friendly waiter and the food was amazingly presented and full of flavour. We went for the lunchtime special offer so great value for money. Have already recommended to many friends and family and will definitely go back.

My friend JY has used this restaurant several times and we went together on Sunday. My first time. I was suitably impressed. It was absolutely great. The decor, ambience and waiting staff all lovely. The food excellent. It was a unite evening which is what we were looking for but I hear that their music nights are very good. I will definitely return to find out. Lovely place.

if this is not the best restaurant in canterbury, it must be close. we returned to canterbury and so to the ambrette as we enjoyed it at our last visit. this time our hotel choice was driven by the proximity to the restaurant. we enjoyed it this time. eating is excellent and completely different from elsewhere with the innovative use of seasoned. my pig bell was excellent and do not miss the Masala mash. my wife chose the deaf starter and Aubergine main, and they enjoyed it thoroughly. good service, especially dessert wine and music from violin and piano. a delightful evening.
