The food was as expected and I love the dark castle atmosphere. However, the tables are pretty close together and caused the place to be very loud. So, not recommended if you’re looking for a quiet experience.

I went for a Monday night extended happy hour and I couldn't have been happier. The place was fairly empty which was nice because it was quiet and easy to have a conversation. The service was awesome, super friendly. Timely with the food and behind the bar.

Ambrosia has a great atmosphere and ambience. The food is top grade. We tried the chicken fried rice and the roasted shrimp and both were very tasty and palatable. The waitress was very friendly and helped us sort through the drinks menu and helped us choose some popular drinks.

Long post time! Based off of the suggestion from Bay Area Houston Food Lovers on FB, from my last post we had to stop at Ambrosia in Southwest Houston. It is a block off of 59 south and Shepard Dr, nestled in a neighborhood right off the highway, but don't let that fool you. From the moment we walked up it had the most welcoming atmosphere, so of course we had to take a selfie. Lol. If the weather permits take advantage of their outdoor seating! It was definitely a bit hot today so we went inside to a very visually pleasing atmosphere and friendly staff ready to answer any of our questions. But enough of that let's talk about why you choose to read this. Food time! The Brussel sprouts are ridiculously tasty 😋. From the moment they hit the table, the aroma instantly entices your senses. They have the perfect blend of crisp and sweetness. The freshly shredded Parmesan cheese gives a phenomenal finish to each bite, not overpowering at all. Next, the spicy chicken and waffles! I was looking forward to this one. With the perfect amount of powdered sugar glistening off the top, I had to dive in. Definitely a sweet and savory waffle. Gives my tastebuds memories of the most amazing Seabrook Waffle Company. 🧇 The chicken was a beautiful glow of orange as it sat on the plate begging me to try it. As I cut into the chicken it gives that satisfying crunch. I can only explain it as a light crisp, but not over crisp, taste to it. Definitely an intriguing profile to it. Now the sauce will knock you out of your socks with a sweet but firery taste leaving you wanting more. But you must pair the 2 in a single bite and the pairing will leave you so satisfied. Now, off to the Karaage A L'Orange! This Thai orange curry is demanding I experience what it has to offer, so it is up next. The twice fried chicken is beautiful to cut with a fork, as the crunch gives me happy chills. The orange curry sauce that the chicken is comfortably nestled in has an amazing citrus hint to it without a overpowering, flavor which pairs beautifully with the spicy, but not deadly, Bloody Mary. Now time to wrap it up! I definitely recommend swinging by and experiencing the never before flavors for your taste buds, they will definitely thank you. We loved it all! From the atmosphere, staff and food, I was absolutely pleased to have experienced this suggestion. Can't wait til the next visit on the list of all the amazing suggestions from BAHFL!

The food was decent, however only issue I had was it coming out at different times! My party waited on some of their apps while others had theirs. I wasn’t too impressed with the curry fries, as I expected more cheese and curry seasoning on them. The masala lamb chops were delicious, the cucumber mint sauce and the curry jam added that “OOMFH” too it.

High-end Pan-Asian, Southwestern, and New American fusion with pretty strong cocktails. Great service. Pricey for a splurgey intimate dinner. Cool outdoor patio with cushioned seats for a chill, cozy vibe. The brussel sprouts and ribs are FANTASTIC. I don't have any food pics because we ravished it all. The door is big, heavy, and medieval style (pro tip: *pull*, don't push or you'll stand there awkwardly for a minute trying to figure it out...like we did🤭)

From the ambiance to the food, everything was amazing! We got the chicken samosas, Baadmash Wings (Masala dry-rub and Gangnam style flavors), and steak cut fries and everything was delectable!
