“Best Restaurant on the Eastern Shore”
Nestled at the tip of a 70-mile strip of fertile farmland, Ambrogia Caffé & Enoteca offers an authentic Italian experience that showcases the area’s finest produce and seafood.
“This restaurant is exceptional not just for Cape Charles but for the country.”
Located in the historic district of Cape Charles, just a five-minute stroll to the waterfront, Ambrogia Caffé & Enoteca was established in 2019 by Italian-born ocean scientist, Cristina Carollo.
Inspired by Cristina’s mother’s cooking, Ambrogia honors Italian food traditions, where meals are a time in your day to relax, unwind, and connect with friends.
We look forward to hosting you.
