We stumbled into Saint Ambroseous on a particularly sweaty Saturday as it seemed to be the only spot in the neighborhood that didn't have a ridiculously long wait.
The restaurant itself was both cute and spacious with a solid menu. I was excited to see a note about gluten free pasta, so I assumed I would be in great hands allergywise.
I ordered the eggs Benedict and asked if I could sub in avocado instead of bread because I can't eat gluten. The server seemed a bit confused but made a note of it.
I was – somewhat pleasantly and somewhat confusingly – surprised to have my Benedict come out with gluten free bread and a side of avocado. The food itself was good, and it was great to see the gf bread option – the side of avo was pretty pricey though so it would have been great if the server let me know that the gf bread was an option/what I'd be receiving.
Overall I'd say solid brunch spot. Good food. Great they have GF options – would just be nice if the servers were better informed on that topic.
I'm not sure why this place has only one review because I'm sure it's not that new. I've been meaning to check it out because I walk past it quite frequently. After my initial plans for dinner fell through, we found ourselves walking by and decided to check it out. At first glance, the place looks closed, but we decided to look a little harder for any sign of life through the door.
We were a party of three without a reservation on a Saturday night. We were grateful that were were able to be seated immediately. I don't know why the restaurant has 4 dollar signs for its profile. There were plenty of affordable options mixed in with the pricier offerings. There were handful of pasta dishes that were $18-$25, which I think is fairly standard?
I really dig the decor of this spot. It's quiet, private and romantic with enough space between tables so that you're not sitting on top of each other. I was big fan of the menu, I even posted picture of it.
I had an overwhelmingly positive experience here, so maybe more people will give it a chance.
