Great staff & great food. We'll be back. Excellent tenderloin recently. Had breakfast yesterday. Once again, great food & great service .
Stopped here while traveling. Ordered the BPT, it was great. Food was good. Service was fast and friendly. Nice little bar & grille, I def recommend a stop here if you are in the area!
We were driving back from Des Moines and wanted to stop for a drink and some food. We came across Ambro's and was happy that we did! They were super busy for a Saturday lunch but the ladies were very helpful! And had smiles on their faces and happy to serve! We had some burgers that were DELICIOUS! And loved the seasoning on the fries! Yummy!! Great little place for food and drinks! And if it is a nice day...you can enjoy everything outside!
Great small town atmosphere and a perfect breakfast. The make your own bloody Mary bar is great. They have them on both Saturday and Sunday mornings until noon.
Everyone at my table ordered a pork tenderloin. Both fried and grilled tenderloins were outstanding; when asked about the process, the waitress said they cut and pound their own fresh tenderloin . I had a side salad with my Ambro's Protein Special, and all of the greens were crisp and delicious. I was shocked that the mushrooms were fresh, and that alone will keep me coming back. I definitely recommend Ambro's for any meal of the day. Morgan, the waitress, was friendly, timely, and knowledgeable.
We have years about this place and happened to be in the area. It was terrific! The bartender was helpful and friendly. The food was great. My wife ordered the fried chicken salad, my daughter had the peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and I got the Wonton chicken sandwich. The salad was huge. My daughter said the pb & j was just like she would have at home, 100% good. The Wonton chicken sandwich was delicious. The fries were amazing. We will definitely be back.
From greet to seat to eat it was a great experience. I enjoyed the fried tenderloin with fries. It was served on a fresh soft toasted bun with all the fixings. The veggies were fresh and crisp. The pork was perfect crunchy juicy and taste amazing. It was also a very large portion and that made it well worth the menu price. Our server was friendly and she knew the menu from top to bottom front to back. Can't wait to eat there again soon.
Stopped for lunch while traveling across iowa. Really good food and very friendly helpful server. Only think not perfect were the stools at the tables. Those are so uncomfortable
The food here is truly outstanding and offers a great variety of hearty, flavorful options that are clearly made with care. I tried the burgers and the appetizers, and everything was cooked to perfection and served hot, with portions that are very generous for the price. The atmosphere is warm and rustic, creating a comfortable space where you can relax and enjoy a meal in a setting that feels very authentic and welcoming. The service was exceptional, as the staff was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the visit without being intrusive. It is a fantastic destination for anyone looking for high-quality comfort food and a friendly, laid-back vibe that makes you feel right at home.
My wife and I stopped by while traveling through the area. Ordered the French Dip. It was delicious, hot, and served quickly. Friendly service and clean facilities. We were able to bring our Dog into the outdoor seating on a hot day so he didn't have to be in the car. Cherry on top. Will definitely be back if we travel back through.
