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.

    We were looking for Italian between Greenwood and Noblesville and chose to check out Ambrosia. Our waiter, David, was amazing and really took care of us well all night. Everyone loved what they ordered but we all agreed the seafood ravioli was the best dish. Parking was reasonable easy and our table was pretty much ready when we got there.
