Ambrosia Ristorante & Wine Bar In Finale emilia

Great food, I got the cacio e pepe and I loved it. Paco was amazing! Super fast, funny, and very attentive. Great place.

Everything has an interesting flavor profile. However, all the dishes were way too salty.

Absolutely loved it! Such a beautiful space in a lovely neighborhood. Despite the fact that the place was packed, the service was quick and attentive. The food was generously portioned and delish. So good that I forgot to take photos! We did a family style meal and tried several dishes. While everything was good, I would recommend the brussel sprouts and the squid ink spagettini. The only mistake we made was not bringing a bottle of wine. Definitely will be coming back soon with one!

Delicious pasta, romantic atmosphere, excellent service. We had the squid ink spaghetti and tortelloni and they were both very good. Liked their wine too.

Very nice venue, both inside and outside seating.

Ambrosia has been our go-to restaurant for seven years. But our dinner with our grandsons last night was a disappointment. The parmesan was sparse in the arugula salad. The mussels were oddly bland. Only the sauce and beans had any flavor in the calamari (Fried calamari would have been preferable.) The tuna was overdone on the outside and raw on the inside. The octopus and short ribs were both excellent.

Great Restaurant. Very great staff. Atmosphere was really nice.

Had a delicious dinner to wrap up my weekend in Philadelphia. The service was great and enjoyed sitting in the back patio area. The homemade tortellini were amazing!

The Homemade pasta was exceptional.

After having dined here once before, The Missus (bless 'er) and The Kid insisted that I, too, should experience Ambrosia. It was a darn good thing that The Missus (bless 'er) had the foresight to make a Friday night reservation for three people at 7:30 a week in advance. When we arrived slightly early, the place was packed- inside and out. We waited briefly before being seated inside. Our server and busser were extremely personable and efficient. The server even had the kindness to laugh at one of my more pathetic "dad" jokes, raising them even higher in my esteem. The specials were presented, our wine was opened (a delicious Primativo from San Maranzano that we brought along), bottled water delivered, and order taken. Fresh focaccia arrived with an unsual, but delicious and unidentifiable dipping sauce. We had decided to share three appetizers: gazpacho with crab, grilled octopus and carpaccio. The gazbacho was refreshing and tasty, enhanced by the sweet, sweet crab meat. The grilled octopus was, quite frankly, the best we'd ever had- and I always order octopus if it is on a menu. The flesh was tender with just a hint of char to give some complexity. The single arm was presented on a bed of salsa verde with fingerling spuds and chorizo sausage. A very pleasant combination. The Kid especially enjoyed the Primativo with it. The Kid chose the evening's special of braised lamb neck. A big portion that brought no end of joy to The Kid's lust for lamb. The Missus (bless 'er) opted for soft-shell crab spaghettini with fava beans. Delicious. I myself had the duck (but got stuck with the bill) breast on a bed of pureed sweet potato, roasted beets and apricots. Unexpectedly, the sweet flavors of the potato, beet and apricot paired very nicely with the duck breast. Lastly for dessert, I went with a roasted peach with ice cream (simple, but good), and The Kid had the chocolate mousse cake. They said it was the best they had ever had. Overall, this was a lively, delicious, and exciting experience:the food was excellent; the service professional; the ambience loud, but not overpowering. People were eating, talking and enjoying themselves in every part of the house. And that's what it's all about, isn't it?
