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.

Our party ordered the burger, the fillet mignon, the fish, and the lamb parpadell. Each entree was delicious. We also shared the Brussels sprouts and the cheese and meat board. Again, delicious. Finished the evening with ice cream and a black cow. We enjoyed our evening and will definitely return.
