Ambrosia Newport Beach is a contemporary coastal fine-dining restaurant where the elegance of the French Riviera meets the relaxed sophistication of Southern California. The restaurant celebrates the bounty of the Pacific with seasonal ingredients sourced from local farms, fisheries, and vineyards, blending classic European techniques with a modern California sensibility. Ambiance: Floor-to-ceiling glass walls frame sweeping ocean views from every seat, with the sun setting directly over the water each evening. The interior is a study in understated luxury—soft white oak, brushed brass, and linen tones accented by ocean-blue leather seating. A wraparound terrace offers al fresco dining with fire pits, where guests can sip champagne as waves crash below. Subtle jazz and the scent of sea salt fill the air, creating an atmosphere both intimate and refined.
