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.

The food was some of the best I have had in the United States for Italian food. The wait staff was excellent and very attentive. The only derogatory thing was our seating was very chilly. When they open the back door, it seems to cause the main room to get a cold draft. If we go back, we will request to sit in the bar area or next to the fireplace.

Great elevated comfort food in a cozy restaurant with friendly staff. We let our server Trinity know we were headed to an event after our meal and she brought us a delicious meal and we were out on time. The food is always creative and terrific at Root & Bone and we will surely be back.
