Reviews for Ambrosia Restaurant & Bar in Eugene, OR
Food is pretty good but expensive, I'm not sure the price matches the quality/flavor. The waitress was nice and friendly but... before our mains came out she cleared our table and took my dates cocktail that was not finished. At the end I asked if we couldget a box for my half finished meal and the check. She took the plates so I figured they were going to box it up in the back butshe came back out with only the check. I was disappointed because the food was not cheap she basically threw away like 15 bucks:( Read more
Our first time here after usually going to a different favorite spot. First, the positives: great atmosphere, server was very... attentive, big portion of bread, desserts were wonderful. Now, the negative: the food. Was excited about the wood fire oven sowe got pizza. Small (compared to other pictures posted), bland and bottom was burnt (over probably needed a quick cleaning.) Wealso got the chicken parm after the server talked it up and about how it was a big portion. It was not. About the same aseverywhere except here you don’t get a side of pasta or anything at $23. And lastly, we did the Davide pasta. That was tasty.But overall, we were disappointed. Read more
I’ve ate Ambrosia three times now. The first time we sat upstairs and it was amazing! Second and third time not so much.. we... were sat downstairs and a couple of the male workers made me incredibly uncomfortable, it’s one thing to look at someone, butthey were extremely over the top! Last night, 7/2/22, we sat in the back of the restaurant, downstairs. I had a male employeewalk by probably 30 times (no joke) starring at me, and then glaring at my husband! It may not sound that bad as I write thisout, but it ruined my night. Seriously, let a girl eat in peace! I would talk to the owner but he was also one them, he ruinedit for me the second time we went there. Again, look in a DIFFERENT direction PLEASE, not at me the WHOLE time! Maybe it’s myfault for going back a third time? The price and professionalism is thee worst I’ve seen in a while! Also, why is theconsistency of the seafood pasta so different? I went back and forth, whether or not I wanted to write this, but they need todo better! Why should I hide my feelings so they can continue doing this? Read more
In the Eugene area, one of our preferred places to enjoy a delightful dish. From the moment you walk in, the smells from the... kitchen fill your mind with multiple choices of fine tasting portions. The drinks are always well mixed and there is greatdiversity in choice. The atmosphere is comfortable and one to appreciate given the historical furniture and design. We havealways been treated with excellent customer service. Read more
Cool antique vibe. Excellent cocktails and fine dining. The service was above the bar with amazing team work.
Got a reservation for our anniversary but were surprised about the quality of the food. Not sure if they were understaffed but... my pasta had no seasoning at all, I had to ask for extra cheese and salt to make it taste better. The spaghetti was a littlebetter but still not quite to the flavor we expected it to be. The pizza was by far the tastiest plate we had that night. Thecocktail was good to with the sugar rim! Might try it again later on but for now we weren't really satisfied. It was kind ofpricy but this place is more on the fancy side. Read more
On the upper end of dining experiences we've had. A little pricey but absolutely worth it. Excellent appetizers and entrees, the... halibut special was wonderful, is gluten free without substitution, and I've never had a better creme brulee. Wait staff isknowledgeable about which items are gluten free with or without substitution. They have gluten free pasta on request. All of usordered something different and no one was disappointed. Coffee is also good, both regular and decaf. We'll look forward to ournext chance to dine there. Read more
I made a reservation and asked specifically if they were still doing their half price appetizer menu between 430-6 as advertised... on their website. I got no response except to let me know I had the reservation. This was a 60 th birthday party and I mentionedthat as well. I was charged for the birthday dessert which has always been complimentary and the appetizers were no longer ,post Covid half price. My pasta dish which was $35. came with a different noodle than described and no cherry tomatoes asdescribed and just 3 prawns. A lot of pasta in a nice sauce , not as described and certainly only worth $15-18. NOT 35!!! Beprepared to be given starch for a large quantity of money and no more complimentary birthday dessert.
