    Milan is where it all began—the city that inspired Ambrogio15 and shaped our passion for Italian cuisine. Now, we’re bringing a taste of our roots to Pacific Beach with a special Milano-themed dinner crafted by Chef Enea Sintoni. This four-course menu, paired with hand-selected Italian wines, celebrates the elegance and bold flavors of northern Italy. We’re also proud to partner with Las Patronas, with a portion of the proceeds supporting their incredible work in the community. Join us for an unforgettable evening of Milanese flavors, great wine, and giving back!

    We attended the special (one night only) Tuscan dinner and wine tasting. A true experience dining on Italian Tuscan cuisine without going to Tuscany. Fabulous service and wines to taste. Sat outside and the atmosphere was quiet and romantic. This is the third of their special dinners (the others were "Rome" and "Sicily" we have gone to and all were excellent, creating a true experience. Their normal menu is also terrific, with the best true Italian pizza in San Diego.

    We first met Chef Enea when we started dining at Ambrogio by Acquerello. We were always super impressed with his ability to execute dishes amazingly, and to come up with very creative versions of Italian dishes. We were sorry to see them close - but were happy to find out that Chef was moving to the Pacific Beach location. We booked the four course Tuscan food and wine pairing experience and were really blown away. I'm Italian - and from the Bronx - and grew up eating food my Italian grandmother cooked. The dishes that Chef Enea served brought me right back to eating with my grandmother. My wife, who is a wine lover was also very impressed with the selection of wines as well as the choice of wine that was served with each course. We booked the next experience (Milan) in the car on the way home from dinner! We're looking forward to more meals with Chef that remind us of home.

    We've been regulars here for several years. Have always enjoyed their pizzas. Now, with an expanded menu, including pastas, small plates we find the new format even more interesting and excellent. Seeing the owner, Giacomo more adds to the ambience and dining experience. His knowledge and charm truly are pluses. This is a neighborhood gem.

    We were very excited to participate in a second wine tasting paired with a four-course dinner at Ambrogio 15. The island of Sicily is the theme for the dinner. The first course of Caponata was spectacular (my wife's favorite). This was followed by a seafood couscous dish, then a swordfish involtini for a delicious third course. Finally, the cannoli served as dessert had the best shell of any I have ever tasted. Very thin and crispy, a great ending to the meal. The different wines paired with each course were very carefully selected and did nothing but enhance each course. If they have more of these dinners, we will make sure we attend.

    The Sicilian Dinner special event was outstanding. Excellent food and wine pairings at a reasonable price considering the amount of food and wine served. Ambrogio continues to be one of my favorite Italian restaurants in town. They offer not only outstanding thin crust pizza with high quality ingredients but also an expanded menu.

    Excellent service and the food was absolutely delicious. Went with a group of friends and they are all foodies and everyone was super impressed by the quality of the food. The taste, the freshness, the quality of ingredients. Environment is very pretty. Only downside is that it was so loud, it was hard to have a conversation (but that’s true of almost every restaurant I’ve ever been in in America). We’d still go back as the food was fabulous.

    Pizza took an hour and when it came out it was cold as if it had been sitting out for 10 minutes. They remade it in about 10 minutes and it was very good. At the end the server apologized for the wait and cold pizza and offered to comp the water.

    The food, ambiance, and servers are great. We love the place. After making a reservation weeks in advance, we were a little disappointed about being sat outside on a chilly and windy night. The warmers were decent at keeping us warm. But I think they should consider giving those that book in advance preference of the best seating location (outside vs inside). Update: The restaurant kindly reached out to me to clarify the misunderstanding and offered a nice bottle of wine for the next visit. I absolutely appreciate them caring enough reaching out and try to make things right.

    Great service, really appreciate the staff. This is our regular weekly spot for a reasonably priced high quality pizza & salads in a cool atmosphere. Feels casual but special and authentic at the same time. Even for Valentine’s Day, it was nice normal menu with a few specials, not a bad prefix like many others. Please support to keep this place thriving!!
