The menu structure was different, as they're now highlighting more than just Italian classics. They are pushing other cuisines like steak, salmon, and chicken. Oh, and they also have new bread! No more olive oil. Say hello to (extremely) soft bread and VERY good butter. I came with a large group of family to celebrate a special occasion, so we opted for family style dishes. Here's what we had: +Tomato bruschetta, 9/10 +caesar salad, 8/10 +jumbo stuffed shells, 8/10 +fettuccine bolognese, 8/10 +baked ziti, 7/10 +grilled salmon, 9/10 +chicken parm, 8/10 +chocolate cake, 7/10 +tiramisu, 9/10

Just okay for me... usually expected with an Italian chain, yeah?…read more I had calamari, branzino, and crème brûlée. All were, unfortunately, just okay. Not great. Not bad. If you're hungry, you can eat it. It's not flavorless (well... the asparagus was ). The sauce helped, for sure. There were a lot of tentacles in the calamari and very few rings. That was consistent across the three orders of calamari at a table of 11. Mostly tentacles. Womp womp. No great flavor there, either... the marinara helped. And the crème brûlée... you get plenty, but it's not special. I do appreciate that it's not a deep crème brûlée... so there's a good crunch to custard ratio. Other than that? Meh. Good attentive service for a table of 11. No issues there. The ambiance was fine. Bathrooms were fine. It wasn't too loud.

Just a chicken cutlet with small amounts of cheese and red sauce, it looks like it was more for presenting than enjoying. Not coming back anytime soon, and definitely not a top place to go if youre looking for the best chicken parm in the city!

It's been 8 years since I returned to this restaurant and it is still as good as it gets. This was…read moremy friends' favorite restaurant so I decided to treat them as well as revisit it myself. I ordered the Lavanda cocktail to start, a mixture of gin and prosecco. It looked as good as it tasted. My friends ordered white wine and a Cherry Coke Old Fashioned. The server (who was attentive and excellent) said the drink was not as sweet as it may sound so my friend gave it a try. He loved it! We shared the mussels and the sauce was the defining moment that made this appetizer. My friends ordered various pasta dishes and I went with the scallops. The scallops presentation alone made all of our eyes pop. The scallops were on individual beds of roasted red pepper cream risotto, sautéed spinach and a brandy cream sauce. It was perfection. All in all, another great meal and experience.

Unfortunately, Ambrosia didn't live up to the expectations…read more The service was inconsistent throughout the meal. Our server seemed to have very little knowledge of the menu and wasn't able to answer basic questions. One example was being over charged for a spirit served neat, even though the menu specifically states there's a $3 upcharge for spirits made into cocktails. When I asked about it, the server couldn't explain the reasoning, which only added to the confusion. The timing of the food was also disappointing. We ordered everything at the same time, but the salad didn't arrive until 15-20 minutes after our entrées had already been served. By that point, it felt like an afterthought. As for the food itself, it was just okay, nothing particularly memorable and certainly not enough to make up for the service issues. Overall, there are plenty of other restaurants in Indianapolis I'd choose before returning.

Greatest Italian Restaurant of All Time! Visit frequently and does not ever dismay in any way…read more Visiting again this weekend. Can't wait.

Generally a "decent" experience overalls with some negative issues intermixed with some positives…read more The calamari was rubbery to the point where we could not enjoy eating it but our server told us the manager took it off our bill. The entrees (the monkfish special and the carbonara) were good but not great. I did appreciate the crispy, smoky pancetta in the carbonara but the monkfish had a somewhat mushy texture rather than the he firmness we would normally expect. The biggest issue, though, was the check. The calamari never came off, the meatballs for the children's pasta were more expensive than what was on the menu, and we were charged for an extra calamari dipping sauce that we did not ask for. Most of these problems were fixed but the whole thing illustrated a lack of attention to detail and an appearance of up-charging the customer in any way possible. Overall: Food: fair 4/5 Service: decent 3.5/5 Pricing: suspicious 2/5

I always end up ordering the Ravioli Rosa Maria--a delicious ricotta and spinach stuffed pasta. My husband usually has the Tagliatelle ala Tarantella--a cream based fettuccini pasta with sun dried tomatoes, chicken sausage & asparagus. We've also enjoyed the Eggplant Parmesan and lasagna. Highly recommend the Creme Brûlée and coffee drinks. The restaurant has an old school vibe with white table cloths, candles and black and white photos of Hollywood legends and Italian Icons. The service can be on the slower side but the food makes up for it.

The spaghetti sauce, in particular, tasted more like something from a jar, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, it just didn't stand out the way I had hoped, especially since it was Yelp-recommended. Street parking is available, which is convenient. I really wanted to love this place, and while it may work for others, I'd probably explore other options next time.

Other than that everything was great and we will certainly go here again. We finish it all off with a cannoli, which was also right on time.! Oh yes, plenty of cold water and some classical wine that we kinda got hooked on in Italy
