Ambra Italian Kitchen + Bar combines modern sensibilities with classic, light dishes in a stunning atmosphere, said to resemble Milan at dusk.
To start, try a caprese with buffalo mozzarella or prime beef tartare. Follow it up with crispy squash blossoms stuffed with ricotta or a side of flavorful meatballs. For your main course, enjoy chicken al limone, chicken Parmigiano, lasagna al forno or a Black Angus ribeye.
For pasta lovers, Ambra features such goodies as a half-moon ravioli with ricotta and flavors of citrus and fennel. Or dig into the bucatini carbonara, with pancetta, pecorino cheese and scallions.
The dessert menu offers several good options, like the classic tiramisu and bombolini, little Italian doughnuts served with Nutella. The lemon tart, filled with lemon curd and mascarpone, comes topped with meringue.
And if you like an after-dinner digestif, wait until you see the amaro cart. Aperol, Fernet Branca and Montenegro are just a few of the stellar offerings.
