Our story

Built by hand. Cooked from the heart.

Ambrosia Garden takes its name from the mythical food of the gods. Owners Nick Korderas and Artemis Pantazi built much of the restaurant themselves — the tables, the bench, the bar — to give Astoria the feeling of actually being in Greece.

Many ingredients are imported from Greece, and the menu changes with the seasons to celebrate dishes from the north, the south, the mainland and the islands.
