Very thankful to Ambrosia! We had a nightmare situation with our hotel that led to us finding last minute dog friendly accomodations. Fortunately, Hilton got us in and we made it to Ambrosia at 9:09. The wait staff seemed a little hesitant but fortunately I already knew what we wanted to order (chicken Manchurian, naan, chicken Tikka masala). They happily obliged and we were able to dine and be done by 9:29, one minute before closing!
The Manchurian was amazing....

Best value for food (buffet) and tastes amazing! Restaurant quality food with buffet prices.
Butter chicken is 10/10. Can ask for fresh garlic naan on the side and specify if you want it crispy or chewy for preferred texture! Will be coming back for sure.
