Margarita pizza
Jose M.

Every time I'd finish sweating it out at the gym next door, that giant red "Ambrose Pizza" sign would taunt me as I trudged to my car. Pizza?! who doesn't crave that cheesy perfection after a workout? The temptation built like a slow burn, until one evening.... I caved! I ordered a large margherita pizza and buffalo wings, picturing the surprise on my wife's face, the kid's excitement, and yeah, satisfying my own growling stomach. The drive home was torture... the aroma teased me from the passenger seat, promising glory.. We gathered around the box like kids at Christmas, ripping into slices with greedy abandon. But ten seconds in, bites half-chewed, we locked eyes--eyebrows arched in shared horror. Flavorless... Utterly bland dough.. toppings that tasted like regrets. The wings saved the 1 star review, packing heat and tang, and the ranch being the savior. Being with my wife who makes sourdough bread, mistakes happen and sometimes salt is forgotten, maybe one day I will try again and the pizza will have flavor, maybe one day.. 2/5 stars: very disappointed.

Cheese Create Your Own Large Slice Pizza and Ambrose combo pizza
Shelby P.

We called in our order on a Saturday. We ordered two large pizzas, one cheese and one Ambrose Combo. Total was $53. Food was ready on time and was hot and fresh. Service was not the friendliest. A bit overpriced IMO.

We stopped by for lunch during the week recently and found Ambrose Pizza to be very welcoming. It was also very busy! The ambiance is right up my alley too reminiscent of how Shakey's Pizza used to look in the 80's. To save time we were encouraged to order online right from our seats in the restaurant. I ordered a turkey sandwich and drink and it was ready quickly. The turkey was fresh and the bread was fresh as well. Reasonable prices too. I'll be back for pizza soon! Plenty of parking outside. Enjoy your visit!

Veggie pizza
Adrian N.

Not sure if Ambrose is under new ownership or the original cooks are gone, but this pizza is absolutely terrible. The dough is flavorless, it used to be thick but with a nice crunch on the bottom, that's all gone. The veggie pizza used to be one of my favorites, fresh vegetables (onion, olives, bell peppers, tomatoes) on top of the gooey melted cheese. Now it's a mess and doesn't even look appetizing. I miss the old Ambrose pizza, if this is the pizza they're going to be making going forward, it's time to find a new pizza spot.

Italian Club
Marc L.

Whole heartedly a love and bias for Ambrose. Take that in consideration for why I gave my experience a 5 start. Because I love their food, their location. We Wifey and I can here for lunch. I wanted a sandwich and was thinking of those other joints. She suggested Ambrose and boy was she right. We both had the Italian Club. Ok you may argue too much lettuce, not enough meat. I say opposite. Love the thing sliced lettuce. The meats in the sandwich are plentiful and tasty. But the star and it has been for decades is the bread. The right composition of softness in the crust , firm middle and wonderful taste. The bread recipe is regional treasure. The staff has changed in 20 plus years but service still makes this feel like a local hangout. Keep going Ambrose I will keep being a loyal fan.

Heart Pastrami Pizza
Big T.

When you walk in you feel like you're in old school pizzeria. The staff is on the ball and attentive. I met the proprietor of this place Alonzo. He was totally involved with his pizza making operation. Never had pastrami pizza. Everyone should try it; pizza was great. We will be back.

I was just in the area and randomly decided to grab Korea Town Pizza, and wow... I'm so glad I did…read more My first visit before was just okay, but this time completely changed my mind. I ordered the Golden Potato Pizza for takeout and it was SO good--like actually craving-it-again good. The flavors were perfectly balanced and everything tasted super fresh. I also loved the extras on the side--parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, and sweet pickles really elevated the whole experience. This spot definitely redeemed itself for me. I'll 100% be back whenever I'm nearby

For the 5 of us, we ordered onion rings, shrimp jambalaya pasta, golden potato pizza, and Hawaiian pizza. The onion rings were piping hot and fresh, and I thought the pasta was just mid. However, both pizzas were really good! My favorite was the golden potato since it comes with the gold crust. They definitely didn't skimp on the toppings and I love that they provide sweet pickles as well (very Korean style). Service was alright, but I think there was only one worker at the time we were there. I'd love to try the other pizzas as well, since they have really interesting combinations.

There is limited seating and it is tables and counter options. There is plenty of parking. It is very casual. We ordered the hot burrata, meatball, and pepperoni pizza, as well as the caprese salad. The caprese salad was so refreshing with the lemon dressing, heirloom tomatoes, and arugula, as well as cubed mozzarella. The pizza is wood oven and the crust perfectly cooked. I do not think the hot burrata is spicy hot but my mom did so I think it depends on your tolerance level. The meatball has fresh ricotta which is awesome too. You can totally taste the freshness of the ingredients, which is why I keep coming back. Service is friendly and efficient. Please note pizza may be about 15 minutes so if you're hungry maybe order ahead through their website.

The combination of toppings was delicious, and every slice had that perfect balance of sauce, cheese, and texture. The meatball panini was packed with flavor. The meatballs were tender, well-seasoned, and complemented by the melted cheese and fresh bread. The pesto panini was equally impressive, offering a balance of fresh, light ingredients while still delivering plenty of flavor in every bite. The service was friendly. The ambiance is quiet, low-key, and casual. Overall, a spot that combines quality food, good service, and a comfortable atmosphere. I'll definitely be coming back.

My wife ordered her pizza at 6:41pm. The app and subsequent email stated the the pizza would be…read moreready by 7:02pm. We asked her mother to pick up the pizza since she was in the area and coming back to our house. When she got there at 6:57pm, she was told by the staff at the store that the pizza was not ready yet. Furthermore, she observed that the staff had just started to make the pizza when she overheard one staff member say to the other "the is the order for Veronica". My mother-in-law waited an extra 10 minutes beyond the stated pick up time before finally addressing the staff. She asked to see the manager, to which the girl at the counter deflected by saying "This is your pizza. It is not ready" and gestured to the oven. My mother-in-law inquired further as to when the pizza was actually made, and the same girl responded "Well, we were very busy and this is how we conduct business." My mother-in-law then asked why this was not communicated sooner to her, and another staff member chimed in and said "communicate what?!" At this point, she had to leave because she was also bringing supplies back home for my wife who is taking care of our sick 2 year old. When I learned of this incident, I then had to leave my wife and go get the pizza myself. I was able to get the pizza, but when the staff at the store heard who I was picking up the pizza for, they both watched me walk back to my car from inside the store, as if I had just caused a scene. This whole situation was extremely unprofessional, and caused undo stress and aggrevation on our family. Unfortunately, however, this place is the only pizza place near us that serves up dairy free ingredients. My wife cannot have dairy due to a medical condition, and therefore we are forced to order from here when we want to have pizza together as a family. I hope that the staff gets, at the very least, a verbal reprimand for poor customer service, and at the most is retrained on how to "conduct business". Update: It has since to our attention that the non-dairy cheese ingredient that was specifically requested for this pizza was NOT used. My wife has been ill since the early hours in the morning today (2/22/26). Her symptoms are congruent with ingesting dairy products. I want those staff members at this establishment to be retrained and reprimanded at once!
