There are places you can walk past… and never realize how good they are.
From the outside, you would never expect what this place offers inside.
Ambrosia is exactly one of those places.
Located just a few minutes from the port, Ambrosia is an ideal choice for travelers.
If you're taking a ferry from Igoumenitsa to Italy or Corfu, this is the perfect place to stop:
before departure, for a relaxed and quality meal
or after arrival, to start your trip the right way
Many travelers search for:
“where to eat near Igoumenitsa port”
“restaurant before ferry Igoumenitsa”
Ambrosia fits perfectly in that moment.
As soon as you walk in, the atmosphere changes completely.
A carefully designed space with style and warmth — created with experience and genuine passion for hospitality.
Behind it is the Chantzaras family, with many years in the restaurant industry, bringing a higher level of dining to the area.
Outdoor garden dining at Ambrosia Restaurant near Igoumenitsa port, a peaceful green setting perfect for a relaxing evening meal.
And just when you think you've seen it all…
There’s a hidden outdoor garden.
A green, peaceful space personally taken care of by Zikos Hantzara, filled with flowers, trees, and a beautiful fountain at the center.
During summer nights, it feels like a small oasis — relaxing, atmospheric, and perfect after a long ferry journey.
Ambrosia is not just about the space — the food is equally impressive.
Our experience (4 people):
We started with an excellent white wine
Shared a selection of appetizers and cheeses
Tried the Ambrosia salad (large and a must-try)
Continued with main dishes featuring high-quality meats
The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the quality is consistently high.
The Perfect Ending
At the end of our meal, we were offered delicious sweet crepes — a small detail that reflects true hospitality.
As a local and Airbnb Superhost, I often recommend Ambrosia to my guests — especially those staying near the port or traveling by ferry.
And the feedback is always the same:
“It was one of the best meals of our trip”
Ambrosia always makes me look good.
