Terrific place! The food is high quality and delicious. The service is great. We are vegetarians and every single item we order was fresh and tasty. The portion sizes seem a bit small and the place is a tad bit pricier than other Indian restaurants but you get what you pay for!A++++

If you want to experience Indian cuisine, this place is a great choice. The food is fresh and healthy. I tried the shrimp masala with garlic naan, and it was really delicious. The complimentary starter was a pleasant surprise ❤️

The service is quick and friendly, and the food is excellent. We particularly enjoyed the non-spicy, perfectly cooked chicken tandoori, and the spinach with cheese was delightful. The jasmine rice infused with saffron complemented the meal perfectly. I also loved the masala chai tea and the refreshing mint tea with real leaves, which provided a lovely conclusion to our dinner. Id definitely recommend it. The only drawback might be that the outdoor chairs are a bit snug for larger individuals, but if youre comfortable, its not an issue. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience, and you have the option to enjoy the indoor seating as well.

This spot needs to be your new spot for Indian cuisine! I loved the service, the food, and atmosphere. Everything was as good as it looked. They will treat your spicy to your sweet palate right on point. I’m not familiar with all the names but ask for these and you won’t regret it😋

Dal was excellent. Fresh light taste prepared healthy with less oil. It was also vegan and there is a vegan butter chicken on the menu. Nice ambiance and cozy atmosphere downtown with indoor and outdoor seating. The Cakebread Cellars sauv blanc is a nice wine option from Napa Valley.

My family and I had dinner last Wednesday eve at Ambrosia, and it was absolutely incredible!The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. The ambience is really beautiful. Its one of our new fam fave restaurants for sure. We ordered so many different things, and every single thing was absolutely scrumptious!Our server, Anand Gurung, was super knowledgeable about the menu and took great care of us.The best Naan ever is the asiago pesto.Love it!We had so much fun!I highly highly recommend dining at this gem in downtown Los Gatos!Seven Stars out of five.Thank you Ambrosia!

The hubby and I frequent the Aptos location when we visit the in-laws, then we had a recent opportunity to dine at their Scotts Valley location……and now, they have come to their senses and made their way into our little town of Los Gatos. Yay!I have to say, their menu is slightly different from the other two locations but that’s ok; the food is still delish. They don’t have the tandoori mixed grill which is a sizzling platter of lamb, chicken and a few other items. The staff said they can still make it for us, so maybe we will order it next time.This restaurant has a full bar so that’s nice. The hubby had a chai white Russian and I had a double espresso martini. I usually don’t like my espresso martini as light as it appeared, but again, VERY tasty and let me tell you, both were BOOZY; definitely a bang for your buck.A few things we ordered: chana masala (garbanzo beans), raita (yogurt based sauce), naan (garlic and plain), and a the seafood mix. We usually do butter chicken or tikka chicken but wanted to try something different.Thank you to Annand and Raj for making our first experience great. Both were very friendly and super attentive. Raj noticed we still had a little food left but were out of rice and naan, so he brought us just a tiny bit more rice for us to help finish off what we had. I was taking photos of the food (for this review) and Annand asked if we wanted a photo of ourselves, but we declined the offer. It was really nice of him to ask though, we appreciated it.Love this place and will definitely be back.Side note: parking is easy; there are plenty on side streets and surrounding business parking.

A great new addition in downtown Los Gatos. Fine dining Indian Cuisine. I attended the soft opening - such a beautiful and inviting decoration and ambience. A really nice bar area that you rarely see in an Indian restaurant. The wall art, unique sculpture, pendants make this place feel really upscale.Food was delicious. Dahi vada and chicken Manchurian were very tasty, and so were the curries. Also had great wine selection.I am sure this new establishment adds fine color to the vibrant Los Gatos downtown and will be a great option for Los Gatos residents as well as visitors for delicious Indian food.

This is the BEST Indian food in the area and I am Indian and have tried a lot all over the world. Do not waste your time at Namaste. The service and food quality is exceptional. The tamarind margarita is out of this world! Well done, Ambrosia! You have earned a regular customer.

Had an amazing time here with my family celebrating my 24th birthday tonight. Although, we were a big party, the staff were super patient and nice with us. My grandma was with us and she’s super sensitive to spicy foods. The first thing she ordered was a bit too spicy and the staff kindly let us keep that dish and made her a very special mild dish as well. On top of that, my cocktail was not what I expected and they made me a whole other one free of charge. They also brought out a special happy birthday cake for me! The food was delicious, authentic and they had lots of creative cocktails and fusion dishes too. Will definitely be back!!

The service here is amazing there were several servers waiting on us and they were very attentive. We sat out on the patio and it was a lovely summer evening. I ordered the kadhai paneer dish and it was one of the better Indian vegetarian dishes I have ever had. I dont write many reviews but enjoyed this restaurant so much I had to come to google! Check this place out next time youre near Los Gatos :)

We happen to hear about this new Indian restaurant in Los Gatos and we were just sweptOff our feet. The place was well decorated, clean and quite inviting. The staff were extremely polite, attentive - service was delightful. We ordered buttered chicken, palak paneer, okra, mango chicken and lamb vindaloo. Everything looked fancy as they came in bronze-like serving dishes. The food was just exceptional! They were spiced appropriately as it’s wasn’t spicy nor hot just like other Indian restaurants. Theirs were more delicate, more subtle but tasty and satisfying.Great job, Ambrosia - we will back for more!

All I can say is that my family now loves Indian food !The okra is remarkable- not what you expect.I had chicken tikka masala and it was spicy as it should. My daughter enjoyed non spicy food and in general everyone was very happy with their dish.Will definitely visit again !

Got take out from here and was very impressed! Very flavorful, fresh, good ingredients without being overly creamy and heavy. They did neglect to put in utensils even though we explicitly asked for them, so one star off on service for that.

My wife, son and I saw that Ambrosia opened up a new location in Los Gatos this week, and we had to try it. The food, as always with Ambrosia, was amazing. I ordered the Butter chicken with a mango lassi, and my wife ordered the matar paneer. Both dishes were prepared to perfection, and the lassi was one of the best I have ever had.The staff was very kind and attentive, we will be coming back very soon:)

We love this bistro which is in the hottest spot in downtown Los Gatos and serves authentic daal, bhaat/rice, varieties of curry and has a lovely wine/cocktail bar and patio seating to top it off. 😀. Highly recommended as a perfect new addition to the LG/ South Bay food scene. Do try it out!

Went there based on the quality we experienced at their Monterey location. Totally disappointed. Never going back again. Paneer tikka was like simply steamed paneer. Not coooked, no masala, pure white. Naan was worse than the frozen ones you get in grocery stores

The place is great but the food we had was meh. The carrots in the vegetable korma weren’t cooked at all and I’ve had better sauce. The chicken in the tikka masala was pretty dry. Since they’ve only been open for 2 weeks I’ll try them again.
