About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
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.

    It was a pleasure to take my daughter to Ambrosia. The host, waiter, and food were unbelievable. My daughter came to visit from Chicago. We had Branzino and Salmon on pasta. The Bourbon Butter and Tiira Misu for dessert. The only area of Improvement was the cocktails. They need to update the choices. Overall it was a great experience.

    The lasagna was fantastic! The veal piccata was delicious! My only complaint was the bruschetta. The bread was sliced too thick and was not sufficiently toasted.
