Faces and Places: Ambar Restaurant

On a weekday afternoon, we spoke with residents dining or waiting for their take-out at Ambar Restaurant in Sleepy Hollow. We wanted to know what types of new businesses they would like to see in town.

"What sort of business would you like to see in Tarrytown/Sleepy Hollow that you think is lacking?"

Yokaira Trinidad, 36, of North Washington Street, Sleepy Hollow; Co-Owner of Ambar Restaurant

• "Something like Bella's on Broadway; we need a breakfast place in Sleepy Hollow."

Ivan Koraca, 34, of Spruce Street, Sleepy Hollow; Village of Tarrytown Highway Department

• "There's enough food establishments around here. I guess something like a tech place that offers stereo equipment and stuff like that so you don't have to go to Radio Shack."

Tony Toloa, 37, of Mt. Kisco; transportation for the Tarrytown Union Free School District

• "[Ambar] is closed on Tuesday. So basically something like this with food and coffee that's open more often."

Christina Hernandez, 36, of Barnhardt Street, Sleepy Hollow; stay-at-home mom whose family owns A&H Laundry

• "Sleepy Hollow is my town and we need for it to be revitalized. I have lots of ideas: we need a hot dog place, a massage place, a good produce store with good greens, a coffee place that takes credit... I know what we don't need is another laundromat!"
