Food is mediocre at best and definitely overpriced. $20 for TWO scallops. Salads were bland. Service was slow and food wasn’t served as the menu described. The ambiance is weird…it’s like this restaurant can’t decide who they want to be. One section is rustic, another contemporary, another modern farmhouse style, and last but not least, the kitchen area looks like a 1950’s diner. They up charge for everything. If you have a gluten allergy and ask for gluten free bread, be prepared to pay an extra $3 (even though regular bread is complimentary).
I recently visited this beautiful restaurant and was thoroughly impressed. The ambiance is vibrant and artsy, with eye-catching art pieces and creative chalk art that give the space a unique, welcoming vibe. They offer a great variety of food and drinks, including thoughtful vegan and gluten-free options, which was a big plus.
Despite how quickly the place fills up, the service is impressively efficient. We were seated almost immediately, and the food arrived within 10 minutes of ordering. The portions were generous, and every dish we tried was packed with flavor.
For two people, including drinks and food, the total came to just \$58 with tip—which felt like a great value for the quality and experience. I’ll definitely be coming back.
I got the breakfast tacos with pork sausage and my friend got the breakfast burrito. Soooo delicious! Lots of gluten free options (but a $2 upcharge for gf bread). Portions were a great size — my friend had to take hers home because she couldn’t finish it. The atmosphere was lovely as well with lots of cute art on the wall. Highly recommend this as a brunch spot!
Found out today after ordering the same thing for months that I had been told was not cross contaminated with gluten (I have celiac) that it *is* cross contaminated. Another employee then tried to convince me that no, it's not cross contaminated, it's just *potentially* cross contaminated (whatever that means). Also received conflicting information about another menu item that I had always been told wasn't gf. I'm used to incompetence from the service industry in Philadelphia but this really hurts because I had thought I was safe eating here and it has been a comfort treat for me ever since my diagnosis. Now I'll never go back and will tell anyone who will listen to do the same.
Fantastic food, service, & staff! Beautiful menu options (that easily worked with my gluten free needs)! You can sit inside or out, and both provide space where you can actually hear and talk freely. Thanks to the Ambrosia staff for being part of our neighborhood! Even if I'm not enjoying an Ambrosia brunch or dinner, you've made me feel safer when walking home just because I know you're there! Cheers to you!
Hosted a bachelorette brunch here and I cannot stress enough how perfect it was! The food was impeccable (the French toast and breakfast enchiladas and steak and eggs were the crowd favorites) and the restaurant and decor are totally adorable. They fit our entire reservation of 10 very comfortably and had good options for our vegan and gluten free guests, not just saddling them with salads. And the star of the show was the wait staff who were extremely attentive and friendly and when they found out we were celebrating they even surprised us with a little treat at the end! 11/10 will be my go to for hosting from now on!
