Ambrosia in Leipzig

Ambrosia has been our family restaurant for over 15 years. Our children know the menu by heart and love the staff. It's always a warm atmosphere and you feel like you're visiting good old friends. The food tastes great and we usually order way too much because everyone wants to try and eat everything. I now also go here with business partners or to veterinary meetings.

A wonderful place filled with Mediterranean warmth and hospitality. A Greek restaurant run by Greek people serving proper Greek food. Mousaka is excellent but remember to leave room for yoghurt with honey. Finish with a Tsipouro for the true Greek experience.

Very tasty food 👍 and very nice handling 😊

I am thrilled with the food, the hospitality and the value for money. Always my pleasure.

Really lovely restaurant with great food and brilliant service. Highly recommend!

A super Greek that I like to visit. The food is delicious, the service is attentive and good and the prices are right too.

fast and friendly service. There were 2 ouzos per person on the house. The food was delicious.

It was a very pleasant evening. The employees and the boss are all very friendly and super fast. The food tasted great. The portions could have been a little larger, but if you want good quality you can't expect mountains of food. From my point of view, it is also positive that there was no clichéd Greek music playing in the background.

Always happy. The dear Greeks are always friendly. But you feel really comfortable in this restaurant. Super friendly, respond to special requests without complaining. Although it is not explicitly requested. Always a smile, although sometimes quite stressful. We don't mind waiting a little longer at weddings. But here it almost doesn't happen at all. Not too fast but not too long either. We would like to come more often if our scale would allow it 😉 and also an extra thank you for always allowing us to bring our dog grandma with us. This is not a given 🥰

Very friendly staff, delicious food, highly recommended 😊👍👍

Genuinely the best food I’ve had in quite some time! And very friendly service!

You feel really welcome here (even with children). Service was great, including a really good mood, food was super tasty (recommendation of the vegetarian starters if you don't feel like eating meat dishes). Atmosphere great. Thanks to the friendly waiters, you can also start a conversation with the neighboring table. We were there twice and will be back. Go!!!

I'd love to go there. Always tastes delicious

Very nice employees. Good food served quickly. Dogs are allowed into the restaurant and are warmly greeted with a water bowl.

I ordered an Americano. The waiter asks "what is that?" 🤦 I say - coffee. He brings me "coffee", which tasted like it came from a puddle... (The instant coffee from the machine at the university clinic tastes better). I still paid for it, but didn't drink it, just left it. He didn't get a tip either, sorry!

Everything was very tasty, great service, I can only recommend it

Drinks were repeatedly forgotten to be brought to the table.

Very nice restaurant, service was always very nice. Food was also very tasty 😋 had a very nice evening there.

Hello reader, unfortunately ordered food there. Far too little for €18. A tablespoon of rice and 10 fries, the meat and the sauce added to the bad taste experience. I'll avoid it here. Maybe it's better in a restaurant if you can look the waiter in the eye.

We eat here several times a year or order it and pick it up... very good... very tasty... very nice... child-friendly... always happy... thank you for being there.

Super tasty! Good portion. Price performance is right. We'll be back!

Lots of small animals on and around the table.

Delicious food and very nice service. We will be back. 😀

Super friendly service, good food and a feel-good atmosphere.

Delicious food, great ouzo ;-), attentive staff

The food was good. Good price-performance ratio. Tzaziki was a little more expensive, but very tasty, high quality and plentiful. We had to ask for a receipt and wait a little longer for it. At home we discovered that the bottle of wine had not been priced into the cash register. Another dish appeared on our receipt. If you added the price difference of the wine bottle to the dish, the difference was 0.60 euros to our disadvantage. We can't say whether the tax has been avoided here; some people don't ask for a receipt. You should always get a receipt and check it on site.

As always - everything wonderful!

Always happy. At lunchtime there is a cheaper menu

Very good Greek restaurant. Friendly staff, good value for money. We will be back

Super tasty food and reasonable portions. Gyros + tzatziki are very tasty, as are the fries. Nice personel. Plus ouzo on the house. In summary: Highly recommended!

Super delicious Greek restaurant, locals come here all the time! Great starters, lots of garlic if you want it and in addition to the classics there are also a few authentic dishes that are not available elsewhere. Service was friendly throughout, highly recommended.

From the outside it looks a bit inconspicuous and often empty (at least when we're past), but that's deceptive. Absolutely delicious food, incredibly friendly and courteous service. We felt completely comfortable and will definitely come back. :-) You can sit inside and outside, we had a table outside. Despite being close to the S-Bahn and Prager Str., the backyard is very quiet and almost idyllic. I can only recommend Ambrosia. :-)

Favorite restaurant in all of Leipzig. You are always treated very nicely and the food is fresh and delivered quickly to the table

nice Italian restaurant that is attached to the Boulevard Hotel. There is also an ice cream parlor. Food was very tasty, there was linguini with shrimps. It was just a shame that there weren't more parasols outside, even though there were still stands for them. We would also have liked to sit outside, but not in the blazing sun.

Great Greek with delicious food. Gyros are perfectly seasoned and you even get two dollops of tzatziki! Friendly and fast service

The name is program! Super delicious food at reasonable prices, top service and beautiful rooms. Once you've eaten enough, you can go for a walk towards the monument. The baked feta is mega!

Very good food and excellent service. We'd love to come back.

Special requests were also implemented very courteously.

Everything was just great, keep it up 👌 until next time

The restaurant is located beneath the Jahrhunderthotel, making it a convenient option to visit if you’re staying there, as we did. The food was delicious with generous portions, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Complimentary uzo adds a traditional touch to the dining experience. A great choice for lovers of Greek cuisine.

Food very tasty, but it was very crowded. Therefore the waiting times were a little longer. Staff very friendly and fulfills all wishes. Can be recommended with a clear conscience.

Excellent food, attentive team.

Pretty good food, as authentic as one can get in Leipzig. Very friendly staff and a great atmosphere overall!

Very nice service and the food was absolutely delicious. The next time we are in Leipzig we will stop there again.

A nice place in itself but the food was just terrible! The waitress seemed very uninterested in me and my family and therefore didn't give a good impression. The son is also just below the belt!! Conclusion: There is definitely potential for good guest cities if the review is taken to heart

Our favorite Greek restaurant in Leipzig. Always delicious food and nice staff.

Very nice restaurant. We were warmly welcomed, the food was excellent and the service staff were also super friendly, Greek hospitality. Thank you and we'll be back.

A few years ago I would have given this 5 points without hesitation. The welcome and hospitality has been unsurpassed for years. Only when it comes to taste, Ambrosia can no longer hold a candle to other Greeks in Leipzig. We were guests here several times a year for over 10 years. Then we changed and tried again this week. It just tastes too mediocre for us. It's a shame, we would have liked to become regular guests again. Update February 2024: We ate here again from time to time. The quality has improved significantly again and we enjoy coming here again.

Particularly friendly and considerate staff. Four different dishes and each tasted delicious. Cozy room layout. You should make a reservation on the weekend.

The Greek is highly recommended, especially when the boss is in the house. The food is delicious!😋👍💪

Today I was at Ambrosia again, I ate a delicious farmer's salad and drank a good red wine with it. I was very satisfied, the staff is very friendly and accommodating. The prices are the same as last year. Highly recommended.

Price-performance is great and the staff is also super friendly. We didn't have to wait long for our food either. Highly Recommended!

Today, after a really long time, we had the spontaneous idea to go out for a Greek meal at AMBROSIA again for the four of us. We were greeted absolutely warmly, by the service and also by Theo (owner), as if we had only been there yesterday. It was surprisingly full for a Thursday, but we were given a very nice table where our Labi could lie in peace. The service was absolutely great, very friendly, but not "pretentious", the food was impeccable, we all enjoyed it very much, drinks were ok, water for our lab was available even without asking. All in all, we felt very comfortable, were served very well and had a very nice evening. THANKS to Theo and his team. You are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and we will definitely be back‼️💯🚀👍

Super friendly, very attentive and probably the best Greek food in Leipzig.

After our first visit today we were more than thrilled. We made reservations as a precaution, but there were still enough places available. The delicious food (I had beef liver for the first time) and the beautiful ambience invited you to linger. Not to forget the attentive waiter. We felt completely comfortable.

Perfect evening, but be sure to book a table in advance! Food very tasty, service courteous, confident and relaxed as well as friendly. Pleasant atmosphere. We were extremely satisfied. Absolute recommendation!

Great, nothing was a lie. From the moment you enter, you get a warm feeling from the behavior of the staff. Friendly and attentive. Same drink on the house. We shared a table because it was very busy, this was done in good consultation. The food was also delicious. 5+ review more than deserved in my eyes.

Ich gehe seit Jahren sehr gerne hin! Das Personal war bisher immer ausnahmslos freundlich. Das Ambiente ist sehr gemütlich - da stimmt vieles von der Beleuchtung, über die Verteilung der Plätze (..dass man nicht geknubbelt sitzt) bis hin zur dezenten griechischen Musik im Hintergrund. So stelle ich mir ein gemütliches Abendessen in einem griechischen Restaurant vor! Auch schon dort zum Geburtstag gegessen und vom Chef persönlich eine Flasche Wein auf's Haus bekommen! Spitze! :) Das Essen ist für die moderaten Preise absolut top! Man darf keine mega großen Portionen erwarten, aber man muss sich ja nicht immer "überfressen" :) Wer danach gerne einen Verdauungsspaziergang am Völkerschlachtdenkmal machen möchte, hat es natürlich auch nicht weit!

Hübsches Restaurant, sehr freundliches Personal, Essen schmeckt aber ist hochpreisig und die Portionen sind nicht gerade riesig.

Ich bin total begeistert, war heute mit der Familie da und wir hatten einen wirklich schönen Abend, Essen lecker, auch für „große Jungs“ gut ausreichende Portionen 😉, das Personal super freundlich, das hübsche Ambiente sollte auch erwähnt werden - da fühlt frau sich sehr wohl und kommt gerne wieder - vielen Dank ans Team dafür 🤗

Es war einfach Super! Mit Bus, S-Bahn und Straßenbahn ist das Restaurant sehr gut angebunden. Parkplätze gibt es reichlich in der Günzstraße nebenan. 3 min. Fußweg über die S-Bahnbrücke. Wir waren mit einer großen Gruppe im Restaurant Ambrosia und wurden super herzlich empfangen. Die Bedienung war sehr aufmerksam und unterhaltsam -typisch griechisch- einfach Klasse! „Γεια σου! τι κάνεις φίλε?“ 😉 Das Ambrosia hat eine sehr umfangreiche Speisekarte, so wie man sie vom Griechen kennt und die Speisen waren alle sehr reichlich und lecker 😋. „πολύ καλά!!“ Wir waren alle sehr begeistert und kommen sehr gerne wieder. „Ευχαριστώ πολύ!!“

Sehr lecker, freundlicher und zuvorkommender Service, ein Erlebnis

Wir waren Weihnachten hier zum Mittagessen. Und obwohl das Restaurant gut gefüllt war, ging der Service flott, mussten nicht zu lang auf das Essen warten. Und es war superlecker.

Es ist eine richtig gute authentische griechische Taverne Mitten in Leipzig .

Das Essen ist sehr lecker und der Service freundlich und sehr aufmerksam.

Sehr zufrieden, vor allem der junge charmante Kellner ist sehr entzückend und wir freuen uns immer wieder als Stammgäste hier aufzutauchen.

Waren gestern Abend - nach vorherigem kurzen Anruf - spontan dort. Zum ersten Mal, im Außenbereich einen schönen Tisch bekommen und wir waren sehr angetan. Äußerst freundliches Personal, sehr leckeres Essen und wirklich preiswert. So hungrig wie wir waren, haben wir keine Fotos gemacht. Aber das holen wir definitiv bald 😉 nach. Denn wir kommen garantiert wieder. Und wir warn heute wieder da... War gut besucht und entsprechend laut, Essen und Service aber wieder top!

Everything was at the highest level. This is not the first time I have visited this restaurant and I would gladly recommend it further.

Essen hat sehr gut geschmeckt. Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Extrawünsche werden erfüllt.

Nettes Personal und leckeres Essen. Nur zu Empfehlen

Bester Grieche in Leipzig. Ich komme seit Jahren regelmäßig hier her und wurde noch nie enttäuscht. Das Ambrosia ist immer einen Besuch wert!

Wie mein Lieblingsmetaxa,12 Sterne 🥰👍

Lecker Essen, freundliches Personal, faire Preise

Sehr leckere Essensauswahl. Den Ouzo gibt es auch stets beim Reinkommen quasi. Empfehlenswert!

Nach unserem ersten Besuch sind wir mehr als begeistert. Sehr schmackhafte Speisen und ein wunderschönes Ambiente. Nicht zu vergessen die sehr aufmerksamen Kellner. Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt.

Wieder sehr lecker gewesen und top Service - sehr authentisch

Good atmosphere, really good food (good portions and really tasty) and superb service!

Essen hat nachgelassen sonst Tip top

Hatte den Eindruck das die Belegschaft überfordert war, Essen was das Fleisch betrifft, nicht noch einmal, war alles viel zu lange in der Pfanne bzw. alles zu fest, Beilage sehr gut

Ich war zum ersten Mal in diesem Lokal und es hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Sehr nette und schnelle Bedienung, gute Auswahl an Speisen und Getränke, das von mir bestellte Essen war lecker.

Super lecker und freundlich wie immer

Ein schönes kleines Restaurant mit guten Speisen. Zum ersten mal waren wir im Ambrosia in Leipzig. Das Restaurant war etwas gefüllt und etwas laut durch einige Besucher. Die Getränke und Vorspeisen wurden schnell gebracht, leider auch die Hauptspeise obwohl man noch mit der Vorspeise nicht durch war. Die Speisen waren sehr lecker 😋. Leider bekamen wir weder vor oder nach den Speisen noch zur Rechnung einen Ouzo obwohl es ein gutes Trinkgeld gab. Das ist man vom Griechischen Restaurant eher nicht gewohnt. Ansonsten würde ich das Restaurant weiterempfehlen 👍

Wir wollten den 18. Geburtstag der Kinder feiern und hatten einen Tisch draußen reserviert. OK es war sehr voll an diesem Abend und ich spare mir die Bilder von typischem griechischen Essen. Es gab leider keinen Ouzo vorher, an Nachbar Tischen wohl schon. Wünsche wurden vergessen, und leider auch ein Gericht, was nur Spagetti mit Metaxa Sauce war. Zusammengefaßt Service Mau, leider der Oberkellner findet sich wichtig und vergisst es dann doch. Teller werden abgeräumt während noch gegessen wird. Naja vielleicht gibt es ja andere Optionen in Leipzig

Am Eingang steht ein Schild, dass man an der Tür warten soll, bis man plaziert wird. Das dauerte bei uns schon eine Weile, bis sich jemand die Zeit nahm, um uns an einen Tisch zu begleiten. Es ging auch nur der Tisch, ein anderer Tisch wurde uns verwehrt, obwohl viele Tische frei waren. Wir bestellten Ofen Feta, Gebackenes Allerlei und Galaktoboureko. Alle Portionen sehr klein, praktisch ein kleines Stück Feta, das Gebackene Allerlei war über den Teller großflächig breit gezogen und ganz zu schweigen von den ganz kleinen Stück Galaktoboureko mit einer winzigen Kugel Vanilleeis. Geschmacklich alles ganz normal, wie es beim Griechen sein sollte. Portionsgröße sehr klein, daher sehr teuer. Es war zwar viel Servicepersonal da, aber total unaufmerksam. Das habe ich bei Griechen schon anders erlebt. Von Gastfreundschaft und Freundlichkeit fehlte jede Spur.

Personale gentile e disponibile. Degustazione di ouzo offerta. Il cameriere si è prestato a t radurre il menu per noi. I piatti ben presentati e molto buoni, le verdure freschissime. L'ambiente piacevole ed accogliente. Prezzi ottimi. Ci torneremo sicuramente la prossima volta che passeremo da Lipsia! Grazie!

Schneller Service und gutes Essen zu normalen Preisen kommen wieder❤️❤️❤️Die Nummer 50 und die Spieße waren so gut……

Klassiek Grieks restaurant, bij binnenkomst direct een ouzo. Personeel vriendelijk en geinteresseerd. Stokbrood met knoflook heel erg lekker. De lamskoteletten waren super mals. De grillschotel lekker gekruid. Een Griekse witte wijn van Mantinia erbij gedronken, vol en zacht van smaak. Een absolute aanrader. Mocht je in Leipzig Grieks willen eten, dan is dit een uitstekende suggestie.
