Reviews for Ambrosia India Bistro Cannery Row in Monterey, CA

I won't say it was the best Indian food ever but it was far better than most of the places I've eaten at across the country.... Made to my order for spiciness and more bland for my family. The service was quick and friendly. The owner engaged us andthanked us for coming. They recommended dishes to suit us. If I ever return to the area, I'll plan a trip there. Read more

I got the salmon tandoori sizzler and it was good and way too much fish. I had three portions of fish and I could only eat one.... My husband had del marcony and samosas. The food was pretty good. They brought the rice out and bread before everything else soit was cold when we went to eat it because the door was open with cold air coming in. But other than that the food was good. Read more

I would have given 0 stars if I could. I ordered vegetarian biryani and my kid found a 'hair' in the veggies. The manager... dressed in black was nor bothered at all said it might be yours and asked if he needs to replace as some people take out thehair and eat biryani. No apology, no shame. Disgusting beyond imagination. This should be closed down. No wonder people don'tlike this place. I wrote this review before getting out of this place. DON'T GO! Read more

The best Indian food I've had in a while.

It is a little baffling to read the poor reviews. We ordered seven dishes and they were yum. The seafood platter was a big hit,... as was the vegetarian briyani. The kids locked the crab cakes and butter chicken. The garlic Naan was fresh and crispy. Thestaff was friendly. They could use an extra person, the pandemic is likely not helping with hiring.

Absolutely pathetic services provided by the restaurant. Rude and Ill behaved staffs. Greasy pathetic food. Don?t even have... utensils to serve the food and denied us spoons. And they even justify their bad behavior with the customer. This place deservesa 0 star. This place is a scam in name of Indian food. Avoid at any cost. Do yourself a favor and visit Abha Indian cuisine 5miles away that serves good food, great ambiance and courteous staffs Read more

I recently visited this place on 26th Sep 2021, this Indian restaurant was below average. Not enough staff, our order of 5... people dine-in arrived after 45 mins, then adding more food took another 10-15 mins of wait time. Food was also not good, wedidn't like at least , we ordered three dishes - 1. Chola masala, aalu vindalu, malai kofta, all three were tasting same type offlavor. Veg Biryaani was also not good, it was like veg pulaa , no flavor of Biryani. Read more

Looking for a quiet spot to catch lunch on Cannery Row? Here's an option! There's lots of options on the menu and a relatively... large selection of drinks and wines! Service was fast and the food came out fresh! I ordered the aloo gobi mild and it come outwith no spice which is ok, but I would have liked a little bit of kick to it. The naan is alright, and I felt like the saffronrice was a touch dry. Read more
