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.

This is a very nice restaurant with very good food. The service was slow the day we were there although the waitress was nice. It seemed like they were low on staff. I would suggest that they replace the benches in the boothes. I felt like I needed a booster seat. I would definitely go there again.
