The comments quoted below are a sample of the full tally across 31 threads.
What people say, in short
Ambrai's lakeside setting is its clearest attraction: diners repeatedly recommend the evening views, including the illuminated City Palace. Several visitors advise reserving ahead after finding tables unavailable. Food opinions are much less consistent. Some diners enjoyed their meals, while others describe ordinary or below-average cooking and recommend going for the setting rather than the food. Treat it as a view-led dinner choice, not an uncontested food favourite.
