For the last four years, I've been hoping for a chance to have Ambrosia cater one of our family celebrations. When we started planning our son's baptism, I actually scheduled the reception around their availability because I knew it would be worth the wait. From the beginning, Ronda was so kind, genuine, and wonderful to work with. She made us feel like she truly cared about making our family's day special. Our reception was at Courter Country Farm, and even the venue had nothing but wonderful things to say about Ambrosia. After experiencing it ourselves, I completely understand why. The food was incredible. Every single thing was exactly what we had envisioned, and guests kept coming up to tell us how amazing everything tasted. The prime rib was hands down the best I've ever had. That's saying something because I make prime rib every Christmas and consider myself pretty picky (especially my husband)! Somehow Ronda managed to make it even better, and her horseradish sauce had the perfect spicy kick that we absolutely loved. What stood out most, though, wasn't just the food, it was how much heart went into everything. You could tell this wasn't just another catering job. It felt like she genuinely wanted our family and friends to have a beautiful experience, and she delivered exactly that. Our son's baptism is a day we'll remember for the rest of our lives, and Ambrosia played a huge part in making it so memorable. We felt incredibly blessed to celebrate with so many people we love while serving food that everyone is still talking about. If you're fortunate enough to find an opening on Ambrosia's calendar, don't hesitate. I completely understand why they're booked so far in advance, and after waiting four years myself, I can honestly say they exceeded every expectation. I'll be sharing photos soon, but I couldn't wait to write this review. Thank you, Ronda, for helping make one of the most meaningful days in our family's life even more special. read more

We were lucky enough to do the 3 course Valentine's Day dinner with dessert and a bottle of wine ! It cost $95 which was totally worth it. We got a yummy salad with homemade ranch, crab dip with heart shaped baguettes, tri tip steak which I wish was a little more medium rare then well but that's just me , mashed potato's, green beans with bacon and some delicious Carmel apple crisp ! Everything was so perfect ! We ate the entire thing. Saved the wine since we like a little bit sweeter wines but are excited to try this one . Everything was adorable with the heart shaped crisps and bread. We are so great-full that we found this wonderful place. The customer service was outstanding and definitely went above and beyond . I drove from port orchard to poulsbo during the snow to get here which was worth it ! Thank you for amazing service ! read more

See all

Ronda and Miranda, the owners of Ambrosia Catering, are super fantastic women and business owners. This mother and daughter team really know what they're doing when it comes to catering events, both at their location as well as off-site. I've been to several events at their venue, as a member of Chambers and other such Civic groups, but I had never hosted my own event with them until this past Saturday. They were so easy to work with to set up the agreement ahead of time, and worked with us to make sure that everything was on point the day of. We held a trivia night, with a professional trivia host, for a volunteer recognition appreciation event. Everything was perfect. The venue accommodated the number of guests that we had. The food was presented timely, beautifully, and was tasty. We chose the Chef's Choice, with the caveat that we get all dietary needs accommodated. They put it together extremely well for us. Everyone who joined us for the evening event had a blast. We know because they told us so. They enjoyed the setting, the food, and of course the competition with the trivia games. I highly recommend that you visit Ambrosia Catering for one of their special meals, or use them for catering an event, or just take the leap and host and activity at the venue. You will not be disappointed. read more

Really impressed! Ronda and Miranda were great to work with-I had sent and email inquiring about delivery options (which is free) and Miranda told me that due to the new State restrictions, they are offering free delivery. I placed my order and gave Miranda my cell and asked to to please text me when she arrived. Right on the agreed upon time, she texted me and I came out to collect our dinner. I was thrilled to see such generous portions, everything was labeled with preheating instructions and couldn't believe that a pumpkin pie was complimentary. It was just a fantastic meal-BBQ brisket, sweet potatoes, baked beans (really good) and individual corn bread with honey butter. It was a huge hit with my family, and we cannot wait to try other menu items. read more

I have used Ambrosia for several events, both large and small. They are consumate professionals and exceeded my high expectations from the first phone call. Not only is the attention to detail and overall presentation of the food amazing, it was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend Ambrosia!!!! read more

We used Ambrosia Catering and Miranda this summer for a backyard garden party. She did a stunning job! Miranda was easy to work with on the ordering and menu selection, and she made good recommendations and suggestions. Once we signed the agreement for the event, she was very attentive and responsive. She and her team did all the set up (which was beautiful!!) and the take down (boxing up all left overs for guests to take). It was seamless from start to finish. And everyone raved about the food!!! The event was very easy to arrange, had fantastic food, and was a huge success. I will definitely use Ambrosia and Miranda again!! read more

This was the best unexpected food find of our entire Seattle and Olympic Peninsula vacation. The mother-daughter duo that runs this catering biz that developed into a dine-in bistro (pivoting during the pandemic) clearly love what they do. Our family of four tried the strawberry lemonade, the chai tea latte, the white mocha, and the beer flight to start. Everything is handcrafted, and the lattes even had designs. We tried the dill chicken salad, turkey club, the special which was a prime rib dip, and the pepper jack melt. The food was all amazing, but the service was even better! When they found out we were vacationing, they suggested stops along the way and sent us home with a little love from their shop. Wish we had a bistro just like this back home in Cincinnati. Best wishes for your family business! Anyone local... Anyone traveling... Do yourself a favor and stop in! read more

Ambrosia catered our party on last week. The food was beautiful to look at and delicious to eat. Our guests commented on how pleasant and efficient Ronda and Miranda were. Dealing with Ambrosia took away our stress as they provided everything they promised and more, in a calm professional manner. read more

We chose Ambrosia to cater our beach picnic baby shower as our first post-covid activity. The communication was timely and pricing fair with a nicely varied menu to choose from. When we arrived to pick up the food and realized that the generous portions were not going to fit in our car, they quickly pivoted, loaded a van, followed us out to the venue- and set everything up! What could have been a very stressful situation was instead a relief. All our guests raved about the food and we have pounds of leftovers. Thank you Ambrosia team! read more

This place just opened and I've been wanting to try it. It did not disappoint! I wanted one of everything!! We started with the jalapeño artichoke dip puffs and they weren't spicy at all, but full of flavor. The chilled salmon skewers were delicious with the dip and tasted fresh. The French onion soup used croutons so it was easier to eat. The kids meal came with mashed potatoes and green beans - not what we expected, but still got a thumbs up from my little man. Highly recommend coming here and trying it out!!! read more

We chose Ronda and her team to make our Mom's 90th birthday special. It was off the charts! The food presentation and taste were superb . All the gals were so accommodating and knew what to do and when. We all felt like royalty even the birthday girl . Thanks again. read more

I have used this company to cater dozens of events, and they are top notch. Their boxed meals are made with fresh, quality ingredients and they offer a ton of variety. They always come through to accommodate dietary restrictions and delivery on time with a smile. If you don't see it on their menu or delivery forms, just ask. In my experience, they will go above and beyond to help meet all of your needs. read more

Wow! We had Ambrosia cater our wedding and it turned out great! Ronda was incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. All the food tasted amazing and Ronda made sure everything went smoothly with the logistics. All of our guests loved the food (we had artichoke dip and bread, coconut shrimp with chili sauce, an amazing Caribbean salad, a pesto tortellini pasta salad, chicken and salmon skewers, and some yummy yummy lasagna with garlic bread). Planning a wedding (or any large event) is incredibly stressful, but Ronda and her staff at Ambrosia made sure that the food was the least of our worries. My husband and I (as well as our guests!) definitely would recommend Ambrosia Catering Co!! read more

I used Ambrosia for my wedding and they were the BEST vendor I dealt with. Ronda was so helpful and answered any question or concern I could come up with! She made sure to keep in contact me from the time I booked them up to the day of the wedding. They even had a sweet little tray of hors d'oeuvres waiting for the party in our bridal & groom's suites. They worked perfectly with my dish rental people, day of coordinator, dessert provider. Everyone involved in the day-of planning loved working with Ronda and her staff. They even helped smooth over a screw up that our party rental vendor made (Perfect "Partys"- see my other review, don't use them!) The food was exactly what I asked for and SO delicious! The only thing I wish was different about the food is that I wish I'd had time and appetite to eat more of it! That is ok though since Ronda was kind enough to box everything up for us to take to snack on at our hotel room. Strongly recommend them as a phenomenal event caterer! read more

Ambrosia was simply wonderful! 10/10 would recommend, definitely a must stop. The food was absolutely delicious, it was easy to tell it was made with much care, and the environment was so warm and welcoming. You could tell the staff loved their job! read more

I recently used Ambrosia to cater a reception following a memorial service for my dad. Due to the sudden nature of the event we didn't have a lot of money at our disposal, it wasn't something we had budgeted for. When I met with Ronda to go over the menu offerings she was so helpful in pointing out the items that would give us the biggest bang for our buck, and would go the farthest with a group of people. We ordered two styles of meatballs, sandwich platters, caesar salad, hawaiian tropical pasta salad, several cookie/bar platters and assorted beverages. She made herself available outside of normal business hours to take calls, exchange emails, and visit the location in advance of the event to get a feel for the set up and arrange all of the logistics so the day of the event would run smoothly, which it did. Ronda and the onsite staff were professional and the service that they provided was very high quality. They arrived early and had everything all set up and waiting. The tables that they arranged looked wonderful. They even helped to plate and arrange a table of homemade canned items that my dad had made so we could share them at his service. The food they provided was delicious. Several people commented on how fantastic the meatballs were and absolutely everyone loved the Hawaiian tropical pasta salad. (I'd love to have that recipe). The cookies with the toffee or caramel in them were to die for, everyone's favorite. They cleaned up so well after the event that you wouldn't have even known that they were ever there. Seriously, I did not have to lift a finger. Ronda's attention to detail, professionalism, compassion and warm hug helped to make a difficult day very special for myself and my family. If you are looking to cater an event you can't go wrong with Ambrosia Catering. I highly recommend you give them a try. read more

Food is amazing, feels like your eating at a home with your family. such a loving staff that truly cares. One of the staff members over heard my conversation about paying a vet bill and to help make us feel better she payed for our meal! How sweet can they get! read more

We had an absolutely amazing experience working with Ronda and the staff at Ambrosia Catering for our wedding. From the very first phone call, they were all very warm and welcoming. We immediately felt comfortable with them. When we sat down at our tasting, Ronda was more than willing to take all the time that was needed to walk us through every option possible and really listened to what our needs were. She then put together several different options with quotes that we had discussed during our tasting to help us decide what we wanted to do. Even after, as there were adjustments here and there throughout the months leading up to our wedding, they were always helpful and graceful. We got married at our family home and Ronda worked wonders to make sure they had everything they needed to cook the food in our kitchen that was not set up for catering large parties by any means. All of the food was very good and they helped create a very calming atmosphere despite all the chaos! They even came for a walk through before the wedding so they knew exactly what they would need and where they would be working so they could prepare. There was not one thing that was forgotten and they worked around each other like every team wishes they could do! As a little extra added bonus, Ronda even went as far as to follow me out as my Dad walked me out of the house to go down the aisle and she made sure my dress and train were laid out to cascade as I walked. They are seriously the most wonderful people who care about their clients beyond just serving good food. You will not regret going with them! read more

If you want home style comfort food the Ambrosia Bistro in Poulsbo is the place. They just opened a couple of weeks ago and I've eaten there three times. Amazing pot roast, lasagna, sandwiches and salads . Best baked potato soup anywhere. Don't miss the hot artichoke dip. You will love it's creamy cheesy goodness. I can't wait to go back. read more

Their food is delish! I've enjoyed both boxed lunches and catered events with their cuisine. It's been good both times. Prices are a tad high. Considering the elegant amenities they bring, it's probably worth it. read more

I rented out the space for a baby shower. Ronda was amazing at set up food prep and assisting with an decorating that needed to be done. I wanted to slap myself for never using Ambrosia catering before because they made my life so easy. I highly recommend them for events and parties. read more

My review is for their boxed lunches... I've attended many all-day classes at Quality Sewing and Vacuum in Silverdale, and they always use Ambrosia Catering to bring in a variety of box lunches for the students. I have never been disappointed in any of the Ambrosia box lunches, but after the last lunch, I felt compelled to review. Wow! Just. WOW! Ambrosia brought in something called the Caribbean Chicken Salad, which I'd never seen before. It was a mixture of fresh greens, a variety of fresh fruits (including berries, pineapple, strawberries, and what I believe was guava or papaya or some other tropical fruit), and slices of freshly cooked chicken. In addition, they had garlic focaccia bread, which even though it was cold was delish nonetheless. Of course, their yummy cookies! This lunch was so jaw-droppingly good, I put in a special lunch request to have this salad again on day 2 of the class. My previous favorite of the Ambrosia lunches was the turkey croissant with cranberry, but there weren't any at this class so I ventured into the salad route - and I'm so glad I did! And, salads don't usually stick with me, but this salad kept me full thru dinner and I wasn't starving in the morning. I wish they had a restaurant, because I'd love to visit! read more

Ambrosia catered brunch for a Multicare event I attended. It was beautifully arranged and the menu was varied and delicious! Everyone enjoyed the food immensely. read more

I am a member of the National Guard stationed in Bremerton and have used Ambrosia Catering Company many times during my tenure to feed service members. My soldiers have nothing but good things to say about the quality of food that we receive. The ladies are always on time and very amenable to changes and suggestions that I might have and are very responsive. They are also very nice and professional. I highly recommend their services. read more

Wow! What can I say about this company and the wonderful ladies who run it. They are OUTSTANDING! So professional and kind. The food was delicious and the service was impeccable. I would give them 10 stars if I could because they are awesome. Absolutely terrific read more

can't speak for the food I hope it is not anywhere near reflected in the poor attitude! the wedding they catered was one I was also supplying my specialty too I have never ever ran into other vendors at any weddings where they acted like it was their day and only they mattered so stay the heck out of their way. if you plan to mutter under your breath behind me how I am impeding your set up in your way maybe you should make sure I can't hear you or the father of the bride he was not all that happy of the comment. I held my tongue because I am a professional.I wanted to know if this is actually how they are so I have spoke to 3 other people in my industry about this company and apparently this IS how they run, all of them said one or more times they have ran into this person, guessing she was the boss she was instructing people and they all have been be spoken to disrespectfully and given attitude. Why do vendors have to act like this? very unprofessional and does not get referrals out of me. the rest of the staff was very friendly. read more

I was first introduced to Ambrosia Catering at a work function they catered at our office, they provided the most delicious appetizers and the staff was so well organized. I was so impressed at how quickly they set up, everything looked amazing, the food was delicious and the staff did such a great job of taking care of our client's needs . I recently had the opportunity to have lunch in their restaurant. I was equally impressed with the quality of food, although they did not have the crab dip on their lunch menu that I had been craving since our catered event. The sandwich I did have was just as amazing and the soup was the Best soup I think I have ever had. While at Ambrosia's we learned that the room that serves as the restaurant is available for renting out on the weekends and I think maybe at night too. My Company will be hosting our Holiday party this year at Ambrosia and we are all looking forward to some more of the great food. read more
