We went here on our wedding anniversary.The ambiance and vibe of the place felt great.The staff was friendly. Nobody asked if we were celebrating anything.We had ordered Ceviche, short rib and paella.The food presentation was great but was mediocre at best for taste and very pricey overall.The short rib($40) was tender on the meaty side but somehow dry. The backside was toast. The ribs sat on a bed of what tasted like coleslaw with roasted potatoes on the sides.The Ceviche($21) and paella($36) tasted exactly the same with what seemed like the same flavour, overlap of ingredients and preparation The only difference being that the Ceviche came with Tortilla chips and the Paella came with risotto(+extra unminced seafood) Check out the pictures! They do look really good however.We will not be returning to this place.We do not recommend this place for any special events.There are plenty of restaurants with the same price range that has better tasting food.
Everything was great!
Excellent service and the quality of food was outstanding. My party of 7 each ordered different meals and we were all satisfied. I will definitely be back
What a perfect evening we had last night. This was for my very private bachelorette party so it was just my maid of honour and I. The service was impeccable and the food exceeded our expectations. I had the octopus as a appetizer and the catch of the day as my main entree. As neither one of us drink alcohol the bartender did this incredible blackberry Mocktail for us and it was so delicious. Absolutely recommend for a elegant dinner in a beautiful setting.
&27 I would classify as a restaurant on the brink of being a fine dining restaurant, but is not quite there.The atmosphere is quite nice and clean. I ordered the peach cabrese salad which was good all be it scant on the mozzarella. For a salad that is meant to share I would expect more then one small ball of mozzarella.My main course was the pork tomahawk. It was accompanied by chive gnocchi with a miso sauce which was quite good however the pork was also served with a sweet bbq sauce and the two flavors didn't really pair nicely with each other, one being sweet the other salty savoury. This made me think of what I initially said in this review, the dishes have too much going on to be fine dining.The service was alright and definitely not very standout. Our server didn't look to pleased to be there that night and hardly came to our table.Overall Ampersand to me has the potential to really be a fine dining restaurant of they reel in their flavours a bit and work on the service.
A nice evening great pizza, despite booking a reservation we got stuck in a really dark table at the back of the restaurant.
The waitress was super sweet and they brought out my friend a complimentary birthday desert!
Lovely environment and delicious food! But the staff looks a little impatient and expects that you should leave as soon as you are done with your food! Partly uncomfortable because of this, it is a nice place though!
Seafood in the pescatore was tough and not fresh and warm.
Went for a birthday brunch for my wife. It was one of the best experiences we have had. The brunchuterie board was the best and will return and want to try dinner as well!
