Quite possibly the best restaurant on the island but very pricey. If you are looking for a super romantic evening or are celebrating a special event and are willing to splurge, then Ambrosia is worth it. Reservations are necessary and best made well in advance so please let me know if I can help!

Great sunset views without the prices of the caldera restaurants. Reservations are best made to ensure a sunset view table.
