    Cool sliding closet door

    As a couple of alumni back in town for the weekend, we were honestly hoping the Ambassador or Library would be open but no luck. Turned out definitely OK because yelp steered me here and lunch was quite good! I can't pass up nachos so did mine up with pork, mild salsa and guacamole. Could've used twice the amount of salsa but it was very good, tangy and fresh and between that and the guacamole I was quite happy with the decision. One of the kiddos got tacos; tasty but way over-cheesed! Burrito was "fine" per the hubs (I don't think he's in a talkative mood)! Clever use of a small space with dining in options - just don't bring a large group! Plenty of vegetarian choices. Drink options are out of a cooler but there's a large Gatorade cooler available for tap water too! Great addition to one of my favorite towns.

    Good ol salad

    Ok so this place was good with fresh organic and certified ingredients, appeared clean and staff was cool and polite! Cost was average for the times and near Michigan tech college. As per the times this is only doing carry out at this point! Plenty of parking but it is a bit tricky to find for your 1st trip there so pay attention and drive properly.

    Fresh ingredients. Simple, yet tasty, menu. A weekly stop for us as it is the best quick eats in the Houghton area.

    Was expecting a supper-club type atmosphere but this was "fast-food". Very pricey for what we got.

    Very fresh, made from scratch tex-mex. One of the better places around Houghton.

    My favorite dish is the grilled chicken burrito with added guacamole, extra veggies, Greek yogurt, and their hot salsa.

    Continuing our eight day stay in Houghton in our motorhome. While at the Keweenaw Brewing Company…read more(KBC) we always strike up conversations with some locals. Ambassador has been recommended several times. We decided to try it and were craving pizza. We ordered the 12" Greek pizza (medium). I asked our server, Katelyn, if tomato sauce could be added to the pizza. Since it is a specialty pizza, Katelyn said it could not be added, but...she could bring a cup of the sauce along with the pizza. Worked out great! BTW, Katelyn was a great server and very pleasant. Oh, we were able to add pepperoni to half of the pizza. The additional cost of the pepperoni and the sauce was shockingly reasonable. The pepperoni was $1.00 and cup of sauce was $1.99. The pizza came right out of the oven and was delicious. We ordered a half carafe of the Apothic wine, which is a house wine. If you enjoy a decent wine, I suggest spending the extra 7 bucks and upgrading the wine...this is not a complaint, we like good wine. Ambassador has an old-school vibe and is very comfortable. It was very busy, but we had plenty of room at our table and the surrounding tables are not uncomfortably close. I highly recommend Ambassador!!

    Loved the decor in this old beer hall. And there some really good things from our meal. First and…read moreforemost... the bread they use for their sandwiches is top notch. Very good! So was the Meatball Appetizer. The rest... pretty average unfortunately. My Ruben was only okay and the garlic bread was also very average. The blue cheese dressing on the house salad was not good at all. I'd come back to have another sandwich, just for the bread! The pizza also looked pretty good.

    This review is for the deli-sandwich portion…read more One of the best sandwiches I've had in years. I live in Chicago area and simply cannot get a good sandwich. Either the bread, the condiments, the temperature (what's with heating the sandwiches) something is always wrong. Originally I am from northern New Jersey so I am used to NYC style delis, which consistently speaking, are the best in the country. That's how sandwiches should be. Anyway, ole girl and I were doing a road trip, this place had good reviews. The sandwich was absolutely delicious and made with LOVE! I would absolutely go back, and absolutely highest recco! We are approaching a thousand!

    We stopped by to grab some deli items and last minute snacks before our trip to Isle Royale. I'm…read moreamazed at the high quality of food and variety of offerings here. I certainly did not expect to find morels or lion's mane mushrooms! I got two sandwiches and a pickle from the deli. The pickle had a good snap and wasn't overly salted or spiced. It was refreshing on the trail. The sandwiches I picked out were the Gratiot River and the Brockway Mountain. I liked the Gratiot River more as the avocado gave the sandwich good moisture, while the Brockway Mountain was rather dry. They were well packaged for portability. The bulk foods section is extensive, and they have a good variety of snacks and frozen food that punches above its weight given the smaller size of the store. If you're in town, definitely stop by to pick up something new!
