Good for special occasions
Great for fine wines

Ambrosia was founded on the principle that the best food - and the best times of our lives - begin with love. In the Pizzi family kitchen in Liguria, Italy, the dinner table was a treasured space for family and friends. Since 1979, the Pizzi family, which now includes Gino's daughters Manuela, Anna, and Francesca, has been bringing that same love and commitment to the Ambrosia kitchen. Regular patrons and staff are all part of the family, and first-time visitors are welcomed like old friends.

Never disappointing! Birthday celebration with family members. We ordered something not on the menu, but had been previously. Rustica and the Carbonara were delicious! Brown Butter cake at the end was divine. You can't go wrong with Ambrosia.
