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.

    I took my brother to Ambrosia to celebrate his birthday. We had a wonderful meal and great service. The carbonara, my brother's favorite as well as my own, was outstanding. Our server was just the right amount of attentive and presented us with a choice of desserts in honor of his birthday, on the house. The chocolate cake he chose was dense and moist and also very good. I highly recommend this restaurant.
