Ambrosia

We went here before seeing Taylor Tomlinson's 930 pm show at Clowes Memorial Hall at Butler. We had plenty of time to enjoy dinner so we started with drinks and appetizers. The calamari was as expected, your typical calamari perfectly fried, crispy and tender. The steak and mushroom bruchetta was different and delicious. My husband got the shrimp linguine and I got the halibut. Both were perfectly cooked. And a very generous piece of halibut. My pesto risotto was a little under seasoned, but I would rather it under than over. I would like to see parmesan freshly grated at the table, but our server carried a bowl with a spoon to sprinkle parmesan over our plates. And my husband and I declined as you don't usually put parm over seafood. But after tasting my risotto, I asked for some parm on the side to add to the risotto to bring up the salt level. It worked perfectly. The service was attentive and efficient. The restaurant was busy but we never had to wait. We ordered dessert and the tiramisu was phenomenal, as was the chocolate ball - I forget the name. 😁 This is a gem of a restaurant and convenient for shows at Butler. We plan on returning.

The gnocchi was mush with no fresh mozzarella on top, the pasta was mush not even al dente and the shrimp did not seem fresh. Mussels were fine. This is supposed to be an Italian restaurant but it was hard for me to believe if anything seemed made fresh, in my opinion the price for it just doesn’t seem correct for the quality and size.

Delicious food and loved our server! Very much enjoyed and liked the overall atmosphere. Nice wine list, too. Only complaint is that those tables are so so so so close together! We couldn't even sit down until the server at next table was done talking to his table. No room to move. Our server, who was extremely slender, couldn't get around or table. Other than this issue can recommend as great place for Italian food and nice evening out.

Went here for a fancy date night and the venue did not disappoint. The food was delicious (we got a pesto flatbread appetizer, the Chicken Parmesan and the Salmon for the main course, and shared an affogato for dessert). Everything was amazing and the portion sizes were generous. The staff was extremely friendly, we had McKenna and she was a rockstar, even offering to take a photo of us with some of the Christmas decor they had up. Inside felt cozy and comfortable. The only note I have on the atmosphere is the lighting dimmed partway through the evening and there was one jarring music transition which changed the mood and volume quite a bit. Otherwise the volume was great for conversation.

We have enjoyed Ambrosia for decades and tonight was no exception. We think there is no better server in the world than Dave. Their food and his hospitality keep us coming back every few weeks. We love you Ambrosia and especially Dave!

I’ve been coming here 2–3 times a year for many years now, and the experience has been consistently excellent. The arancini are fantastic—the acidity of the red sauce brings a much-needed balance and really makes the dish shine. The drinks are also quite strong, which is a nice bonus. I’ve tried most of the menu at this point, and honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything. The only issue I’ve ever had across all my visits was a fish dish that wasn’t fully deboned and had a few bones left. It wasn’t a big deal, but it did stand out simply because it’s outside the high standard I’ve come to expect from this place. Parking can be a bit challenging. There’s a small lot in the back, but it’s usually full, so street parking out front is typically your best bet. Outdoor seating is available, and during dinner hours the atmosphere is moderately lively—loud enough to feel energetic, but still easy to hold a conversation.

Sadly: NEVER AGAIN. I’ve taken our family out to wonderful dinners here, but Saturday 12/27 was the last time. Waited 10min after reservation time for a table. Got our entrees 1hr20min after being seated. Our server kept saying, “Your food is coming right out.” Tables seated 1/2hr after us, same server, got served 1/2hr before us. Ordered wine with dinner. Had wine then an hour later dinner. Walked our toddler around restaurant 5x to keep him occupied as we waited forever. Didn’t dare order dessert and wait an eternity for that, too. AMBROSIA: You could have pretended to care. Free mini bowls of pasta at 1hr mark to tide us over? OR dessert on the house to take home? OR knock $50 off the $301 bill? Nothing. Full price check and “Sorry, there was a mixup in the kitchen.” Unforgivable. I can’t give you the chance to ruin my family’s evening again.

The staff was so kind, the food was amazing! The calamari was so good, I recommend that for an appetizer. They bees signs on the doors, many people ended up walking through the back of the restaurant instead of the front. It was a little nosey and hard to have conversation with the people at the table. But over all a great experience.

This place deserves five stars for the ambience and service and food. The only thing that soured the moment was the couple beside me saying, "I don't know why people are so upset about Epstein, he's dead and who hasn't done something in their past they regret." It had nothing to do with the restaurant. They were great. It was the kind of comment that is ugly on its own and even worse when aired casually in public. If that couple reads this, know that your behavior was noticed. It was grotesque and out of place, and anyone with a basic sense of decency would feel real shame saying something like that. You're the reason why people don't wanna live in Indiana and why the people that do wish they didn't.

Stunning surprise dinner for our anniversary. Romantic vibe inside with the dim lights and candles. Amazing staff who made us feel very special. Had amazing old fashioned from the bar and loved every bit of food. The shrimp soup in the bread bowl was the best part!

LASAGNA 9.6/10 (Pizzi family's world-famous recipe, topped with bechamel parmesan cream & meat ragu *I asked for a pesto stripe) - my fav of the night!! CALAMARI (lightly breaded calamari, cocktail sauce) - great calamari and cocktail sauce ARANCINI (crispy mozzarella risotto balls, marinara, shaved parmesan) LINGUINE con GAMBERI (linguine, shrimp, olive oil, garlic, spicy tomato cream sauce) RIGATONI alla SAUSICCIA (rigatoni, ground Italian sausage, broccolini, red bell pepper, white wine lemon butter sauce) CARBONARA (spaghetti, egg, pancetta, parmesan, black pepper) CAPELLINI (angel hair, chicken, artichoke, grape tomato, spinach, roasted red pepper cream) - caesar salad was great, barf oysters but $1 during happy hour

I was greeted at the door. I took advantage of the devour menu. They have a small mocktail selection. I tried the wine which was tasty. My sisters also loved their cocktails. Our server was great. The tables were constantly being cleaned. They automatically charge 20% gratuity. The food wasn't good in my opinion. She kept asking if I wanted a box because I was done after one bite. I actually ended up getting sick shortly after we left the restaurant and had to pull over. I'm vegetarian so it could've been something in the ingredients that didn't agree with my diet. The devour menu was $55 for four courses.

As of December 2024, I can confidently proclaim Ambrosia the best happy hour in Indy! Hopefully the deals stick around, because you can't beat $1 oysters and $15 dirty martini flights! Offered from 5 to 6 pm on weekdays, I was glad we made a reservation because it filled up surprisingly fast. We had wonderful service in the bar. We had a few small bites and salads, too, which were wonderful. The perfect weeknight pick me up!

Authentic Italian with a wonderful atmosphere. Service was excellent, food was phenomenal!

It takes a lot for me to be in the mood for Italian, but on a cold wintry night it was the best decision! We got two craft cocktails that were unlike any drink we've had. They have a happy hour we had just missed with $1 oysters so we will definitely have to be back for that. Got a Caesar salad that was pretty big and very good! I got the lasagna and my boyfriend got the rigatoni. For dessert we got the butter cake with berry compote on top. The service was very delightful always giving us great recommendations and friendly. She was one of the best servers we've had in a while! Will definitely return!

Our meal was delicious: fresh salads, perfectly prepared entrees, tasty desserts. Even the cocktails were good. Our server was Caitlin. She was friendly, professional, and attentive without intruding.

My favorite Italian spot in the area and I have eaten here many times, so it's shocking I'm just now leaving a review. The Caesar salad and bolognese are the standout dishes, hands down. Not a fan of the NA Dom's smash, but they have several good wines and you can't go wrong with a spritz. Love sitting on the patio and the service is always great.

First time visiting as a big group of 7 and Bethany, our server, took good and timely care of us. For drinks we ordered a phony Negroni and Old fashioned and they were decent. The phony Negroni was not housemade but rather a bottled one. As for the entrees , my shrimp gamberi dish was quite tasty - spicy, tomato-y! Was a bit odd to see the shrimps were 3/4th size only with their tails just snipped off. Wish that hadn't been the case, but taste was good. My husband had their special feature of tuna, which sounded good and was a very pricey dish, but was honestly underwhelming. My son mentioned his lasagna was just okay. So when it came to the entrees, nothing made us swoon, especially for the price point. We ordered desserts to share and the kids chose the Bourbon butter cake & chocolate cake. Their desserts are huge and decadent but very tasty! Overall it was meh for such pricey food.

First off, we started with fresh bread and garlic infused olive oil then came the appetizers burrata with honey and lastly smoked salmon & salted cod fish.... The service was a little slow but only noticeable because we were on the verge of being hamgry!! The ambience was so relaxing and comfortable despite the air conditioning reminding me I should have brought a sweat shirt!.... The main courses came - Tortellini with sausage, seared scallops over risotto & spinach and a skirt stake wrapped around mushrooms and onions - DELICIOUS might be the word to describe this experience!!! I've eaten Italian food from the North End of Boston to Little Italy in NYC for over four decades and funny how Ambrosia in Indianapolis gave me the same experience!!

I must say I forget about Ambrosia and I don't know why. It is always amazing. Stopped in with a friend last night to get a bite to eat and we sat at the bar. The bartender was friendly and helpful. The bar crowd was lively, and the mood was great. We just got a light bite and I highly recommend the grilled octopus and the meatball soup.! Both were absolutely fantastic. Though we did not get dinner I can vouch for the entrées as well. I don't sit on Ambrosia. Get yourself over there.

This has been on my list of places to try for so long, and my husband and I finally decided to try it out with a newborn ha. When we walked in, we were seated in a corner which was perfect because when you have a baby you want some privacy. The server was amazing, and kept giving us time to think about what we wanted, and when he walked by our table and saw we were feeding the baby or accompanying her, he would come back! We ordered the grilled artichokes, spaghetti con limon, linguine con gamberi for our food. Everything was spectacular! The shrimp was perfectly cooked, and spicy, and the lemon dish was so refreshing! We ended our dinner with tiramisu which was amazing! The restaurant isn't really "toddler" friendly, there weren't any changing tables in the restrooms but with a baby who slept most of the time it was a perfect date night spot

Go here, you will be pleased. Why I liked this place, with a few notes: Cloth napkins. Nothing worse than paying $100 and getting a napkin that you can't wipe your hands on without it ripping. Lemon wedges and lemon slices. I like to make lemon water. The slices are garnish for drinks. Wedges are for squeezing. They had both. Wait staff has menu and specials memorized. Kate was on it. No hesitation to answer every question, no cheat sheet, recalled the specials and knew the entire menu. Impressive. She also struck the right balance between attentive and space. We never felt like we were waiting on her, and never felt bothered. Caesar salad came tossed. Often when I order a caesar salad I get a bowl with lettuce and ingredients that I can toss myself. People... I did not order a chore, I ordered a salad. This one came ready to eat and was pretty good. 4 stars for the salad though, something about the dressing was not acidic enough for my taste. Sound dampening on the ceiling. This is part of the accessibility aspect. I am a bit hard of hearing so loud restaurants often result in difficulty understanding the conversation at my table. This place had dampening on the ceiling and it did a decent job of cutting the higher end that can make a space so loud. We had an enjoyable conversation. Intimate lighting. It was a nicely lit space without overpowering lighting. Good place for a date as long as you choose the right table away from foot traffic. We happened to get a table floating in the middle next to a main foot traffic area. Not my preference but I have pretty high standards when it comes to seating. I am also one who usually feels like the tables are over-sat, leaving everyone cramped for space for basic things like your phone and even a regular amount of plates and glasses. This left me and my party playing a shuffle game and feeling a bit crowded at the table. Food is really good. We ordered a lot of food and it was all cooked very well. Not to minimize, but as a restaurant I expect the food to be good as a baseline. That's the business you are in. The food did not disappoint. I feel like this is a 4.5 star experience. But I cannot choose a half star. I went for 5 stars because they got a LOT right, especially compared to some other places I have been to. Bravo! Note: (I did not use the restroom or consider any of the accessibility aspects. We even entered through the back door, which did not open automatically.)

I don't know how I've lived in Indy my whole life and not been here until now. Everything was delicious, and the service was amazing. I got the lasagna and it was truly the best lasagna I've ever had. That béchamel sauce was a dream come true. The pistachio cake is also absolutely amazing. The hazelnut cake was good, but the pistachio was exceptional! These meals are rich and decadent, so not something I'd choose every weekend, but definitely an amazing spot for a date night!

Went for dinner to celebrate our anniversary. Our server, Kate, was fantastic! I got an Amore Spritz and the ravioli. My husband had a Summer Negroni and the lasagna. We had tiramisu for dessert. Everything was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend this place for a nice dinner.

My friend and I came in here when we were staying in the area. We arrived pretty early on a Friday night and were able to get a table in the bar area. Seems like reservations are recommended since it fills up quickly. The server was very nice and helpful. We ordered the burrata bruschetta as an appetizer and it was delicious. For my food, I ordered the carbonara. Everything was great!

Holy Happy Hour!! The oysters are what brought us in.. at $1 each who can say no. They will certainly keep a customer in me if they continue to offer this. They also had an amazing corn chowder resembling soup and a delicious happy hour limoncello drink. Only negative would be the dark quiet nature of the restaurant, being that it's not super busy during happy hour. Just not the ambiance I would choose for happy hour, would be perfect for date night!

Amazing food, service and ambiance at Ambrosia! There is a small parking lot in the back, which is very surprising for the broad ripple area. The service we received from Kate was great. She was kind and helpful the entire dinner. The food and drinks were also wonderful. I ordered the burrata bruschetta, ravioli with the spicy tomato cream sauce and tiramisu. All were amazing. I'm expecting so I was very pleased to see a mocktail menu. I got the refreshing fruit + spice. We will definitely be back!

Table of 25 in back room and a couple of table of 4. Table of 25 mingled for 45 minutes, standing and shouting and chaos next to our table of 4. Why put such a big party with other diners. It must be for the money, not for the comfort of other diners. Very bad.

This is a Broad Ripple classic that has been in the neighborhood as long or longer than we have, so going on 25 years at least. It was originally in downtown BRV near the Firehouse but has since moved to Meridian & College, across from Binkley's. Great classic Italian dishes match the intimate and romantic Italian decor when you walk in. The Staff is always friendly but efficient, happy to answer questions when needed. The food is always top notch, seafood is fresh, and the Italian traditionalists will be pleased. Highly recommend for special nights and carryout works well too!

Can't believe it's been so long since I've been back here and glad our family did. The ambiance is great and elegant love the all black interior and perfect noise level. Service with a smile and timing was on point. The food really packs a punch, Delicious when it came out which tells me they really put their heart into the food they prepare and serve. Very Well done this will be our go to spot for Italian moving forward. Thanks Ambrosia!

Matthew decided to take me here last night on a surprise date night and it was amazing! We had reservations for 7:45 PM and we arrived about 20 minutes early and sat immediately on the patio. I had never been to this place before and the ambiance was unique! This patio is definitely in my top 5 for the Indy area. The seating is excellent, they have sunshades that are retractable and the tables are not too close together. Our server's name was Bri and she was PHENOMENAL! She was able to tell us about the specials that night as well as give recommendations on drinks and entrees! We started out with some classy Mocktails that the bartender made for us. Mine was an awesome orange-inspired drink and Matt's was a toasty basil-flavored drink -- they were immaculate! We then got our complimentary bread (still warm from the over and so good) and ordered our appetizers. We decided on the Polpo alla Griglia and the Arancini. The octopus was great and you could taste the lemon butter sauce in every bite. The arancini had an awesome crunch on the outside and warm cheesy risotto on the inside, it came with marinara sauce and that was perfection! Finally to our entrees - I was really torn between the Branzino and their special last night; Swordfish Risotto and Matt was already sold on the Carbonara. Bri suggested the Swordfish Risotto and it was amazing! It came with an arugula salad on the side and the swordfish was cooked to perfection, I truly hope that they have the swordfish special again! Matt's Carbonara was great as well, I had a bite and it was amazing! We ended the night with a canoli and a Decaf Machiatto - both were amazing and I am so glad that we went last night! I can't wait to go back!

Finally made it to Ambrosia for a date night with my husband and had a great experience! I knew this establishment had been around for a while, but never knew they have been an Indianapolis staple for authentic Italian cuisine for 44 years. Service was attentive, yet never looming, and provided some great recommendations. We ordered the oysters on special, Linguine con Gamberi, and Carbonara. Everything was fresh, and delicious! I forgot how much better fresh pasta tastes, and this meal was an incredible reminder!

Dropped in Ambrosia for a late night dessert and coffee. First visit - restaurant has a very cozy, welcoming elegance. Polite server though in a bit of a rush - probably anxious to wrap up a long day. Nice variety for an abbreviated dessert menu. Opted for the pistachio cake and a cappuccino. ($17) Desserts seemed appropriately portioned for after-dinner. Watching the hearty Italian dishes going by for dinner patrons, we can imagine there's not much room for dessert! Pistachio cake was a lovely combination of pistachio, ricotta, and raspberry. Will return for dinner

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.

This restaurant was wonderful, the staff was friendly and personable, food was delicious (abd ready quickly), and the vibes were wonderful :)

Went here for dinner on a Saturday night with a reservation. We were seatand waited for 20 minutes with no service, not even water in our glasses. We watched as the tables around us were served but no one ever waited on us. After another table was seated behind us and waited on immediately we left and they didn't even notice us leaving. We will never be back.

Really enjoyed this restaurant. Drinks were strong and tasty. Ravioli was amazing. Highly recommend that. I also enjoyed that the lasagna had both marinara and a cheese Alfredo sauce on it.

My friend and I came here for dinner on Friday night. We did not have reservations but arrived before the dinner rush and were able to be seated without a wait. Our server, Sarah, was great. She explained the history of the restaurant as we'd never been there before, and thoroughly reviewed the specials as well. She was prompt with each part of our meal and drinks as well. We ordered the burrata bruschetta to split which had a great flavor. The cheese was nice and soft and the bread had a good crisp. I ordered the rigatoni alla medici for my main course and ate every bite. The pasta was well cooked and there was so much flavor from the artichoke as well. I was tempted to order dessert but didn't have any room left for it! The restaurant itself was nicely decorated and had a nice, elegant feel without making me feel out of place or underdressed or anything. I would definitely recommend this spot if you're in the Broad Ripple area!

Everything was absolutely amazing!! I treated my cousin to dinner here per her request. I've passed this restaurant so many times and am so glad we got the chance to experience. Family owned Italian restaurant that has been around for many many years did not disappoint. Great ambiance and multiple seating areas. Appetizer: Arancini-risotto balls Drinks: lemon spritzer & raspberry cosmo Meal: linguine con gamberi (spicy or mild)& classic pollo parmigiana (added Alfredo sauce on the side because that's my business) served with fresh green beans. Soooo yummy Pros: Customer service Food options Delicious food & drinks Con: Parking Marinara was a tad salty

I can't believe I hadn't been here before. While I'm not a huge Italian food fan, this place is pretty darn good. It's slightly difficult to get to if you are coming from the North because you can't turn in so you maybe to do some u-turns to get into the parking lot which is in the back of the restaurant. There is an entrance from the back or the front which is nice so you don't have to walk all the way around to enter. When you walk in it has a nice vibe. Not too stale yet not too casual really just a perfect ambiance. The menu isn't huge which I like and they offered several features. Their cocktail menu offers some different choices that I haven't seen at other Italian restaurants. The service was great. What I appreciated most is he read our table. I met a girlfriend that I hadn't seen in maybe a year and we had a lot of catching up to do. I saw him several times get ready to walk over but when we looked like we in the middle of something he didn't stop by so he didn't interrupt. I really like that so kudos to him. I hate I didn't get his name. The prices aren't bad. I had a glass of wine, my meal and dessert and the bill was around $45 before tax. All in all a good experience and I'll be back, if even just for drinks.

Top notch italian! We loved the mussels as an appetizer and then ordered a pasta dish (tortellini all panna) and a chicken dish (pollo di zio) for our meal. Both were delicious! The portions were pretty big, so we took half of our meals home and they were just as great as left overs. Also, the dessert we ordered the Tartufo, which was basically a cocoa covered chocolate gelato with a creamy center and it was incredible! Our service was great all night and our waitress was super helpful with recommending her favorite dishes. We loved all our choices based on her recommendations! We will definitely be back because there were so many other appetizers and entrees that we wanted to try! The ambiance was great and the main dining area was lively and filled with conversations. The private didn't area was a bit more secluded, so we could easily hear one another throughout dinner. There is parking outside the restaurants at the back, so that made it super easy for us. We made a last minute reservation and they were able to fit us in the private dining room.

I've never really had a great meal at ambrosia and the service leaves something to be desired. I know some people love this pace, but it's just not for me. drinks are mediocre

Wow! This place is authentic Italian and has been an establishment of Indy for decades. Some friends and I got dinner at the bar and it still felt like an fine dining experience. Our bartender was Mary and was A+. Be sure to order the meatballs and don't be afraid to order the raspberry cocktail!

Italian is my favorite food genre, so I was excited to try this restaurant. It did not live up to my expectations. The food was just average, the tomatoes were not ripe, the olive oil was bland, the pasta just so so. I know people who like the restaurant but I think it's because it's more Italian American and not Italian-Italian, which is what I had been looking for.

This area is fortunate to have some good Italian spots. This place holds its own. The location is good and there is an option to sit both inside and out. I even think they keep an outdoor option into the colder months with the use of heaters. This was my first visit and everything that my husband and I ordered was good. We started with the pancetta with shrimp and the caprese salad. For dinner we had gnocchi with mushrooms and the clam linguine. Everything had good flavor and it came out in a timely manner.

We went to Ambrosia for the first time this weekend. We love good Italian food. The outside seating was great. It was a bit chilly, but still comfortable. Arturo was our server, and he greeted us warmly and got drinks started. Our friends ordered the mussels appetizer special with two different types of mussels, and the Burrata Caprese Salad, which they said were delicious. We ordered Alfredo with shrimp, braised short ribs, Pollo Parmigiana, and a seafood ravioli special. Every bite was amazing, and we were all too full for dessert, but what we saw looked incredible! The service was excellent, our drinks were delicious and the experience was one that we really enjoyed. We'll definitely be back!

If you are looking for a nice romantic and upscale spot for Italian, look no further. The food as well as the drinks here are always great. You can find all your typical Italian favorites here, as well as a few dishes you can't find everywhere. Such as GNOCCHI di GIUSEPPE, MERLUZZO ARROSTO and PORTOVENERE to name a few. Don't forget to check out dessert. But don't take my word for it... go check it out yourself. Service is very attentive without hovering, which is rare and very much appreciated. Limited parking is available behind the building.

Very romantic, nicely lit atmosphere. Food is excellent and the menu has a wide variety.

I honestly don't know where to begin! They have so many dope views (outside and inside) it's amazing. From the covered patio to the uncovered outdoor lounge area with the fire pit, to the inside chic bar area to the private room, to the fireplace are, to the closed off semi private area I mean...you can have a different vibe every time you come for a full season! No matter what view you have though the food is WWE slammin! I couldn't decide what I loved best so I chose the best of both worlds lasagna and chef..omg I could hug you right now. The artichoke appetizer have you thinking about them a few days later and the peach sorbet..drool..to see the review you know what to do @travelingfoodieguyde

This is the second time we have gone here to celebrate a birthday! The 3 of us really enjoyed the menu options and the long list of wine options. We had the house Cabernet (2 Bottles) per the suggestion of our waitress. Two of us that had the special and the other had the shrimp. The portions were perfect and left some room for dessert. We did get an appetizer as well. When I made the reservation I did indicate we were there celebrating a birthday so I wish they could have seated us in a better spot. I have only eaten here twice and both times we were sat right next to the kitchen and wait station. Being a head hostess at a 5 star restaurant in college I would not place someone there if they were there celebrating a special occasion. Those tables tend to be one of the worst due to all the traffic. Our group actually plans to be back sometime in June and we are looking forward to it.

If you're in the mood for traditional Italian dishes in a GNO or date night-worthy atmosphere, this is the place. I met a couple girlfriends here for dinner -- we each got a salad (a la carte, not included with entrees), and all ordered different pastas. The wine list looked good with a decent range of options available by the glass, but we all had cocktails instead. My friends liked their Caesar salads, and I enjoyed the burrata Caprese. The cheese arrived like an egg atop some ripe tomato slices with a drizzle of balsamic and a little mound of arugula. Very tasty, and really, large enough to share, although I ate the whole thing myself. I'm a sucker for gnocchi anytime I see it on a menu, and this one drenched in "Giuseppe" sauce (creamy tomato with a hint of gorgonzola) was pillowy and delicious. My friend's lasagna looked fantastic, and so did my other friend's ravioli tossed in pesto. All in all, a lovely meal. Shout out to our server Dave as well. Attentive, friendly and perfect pacing.

So glad to dine at Ambrosia again! It's been years since I visited, but the food, service, and ambiance are as great as I remembered. The lemon spaghetti was incredibly creamy and just bright enough with the lemon plus some breadcrumbs for crunch. We also started with the burrata bruschetta. I think I'll try one of their other delicious bruschetta variations next time as this wasn't my favorite, although it wasn't bad at all!

Cute spot for summer nights to dine outdoors. Good spot to take friends and family for a more elegant setting. Overall, food was a bit salty for me especially the arancini.

WOW. I have now been here twice and can say this is hands down the best Italian food in indy! I've had multiple things on the menu both visits and keep coming back for more. Also, I can't say how amazing the service was. Our waiter was spot on with recommendations and they were delicious! I can't wait to come back for more and try everything else on the menu.

Since the covid-19 hit, we were wanting to get back here but at that time, they didn't have their full menu. So glad we went back as we totally miss their grilled octopus (POLPO alla GRIGLIA) and calamari. We got 2 orders of the grilled octopus. That's how much we missed it. Unfortunately, their fruitti di mare isn't on the menu anymore. But good thing we asked because they made it for us!!! Our main course were fruitti di mare and Capesante Scottare. Man, the latter was so good and those scallops were very good size in serving. Paired with risotto Milanese and it was perfect combo. Ended the night with tiramisu. Definitely a good place for repeat visits.

Great food and service. Something for everybody. A bit unexpected. All should try. The tricolor salad is so good

The farro salad... it was the highlight of the meal for us. The lemon pasta was amazing too.
