The owner, Alonzo Lepe, originally started as an employee in 1988, and in 1997 took over the operations of the restaurant. He knows the “ins and outs” of the true Ambrose Italian recipes and even shared one of their cooking secrets! Alonzo shared that their pizza is twice baked; first baking the crust, and then adding toppings to bake once more to perfection.

When asked what his main focus is in running his restaurant business, he answered, “Satisfying a customer is the most thrilling thing. I’ve just fallen in love with it.”

Alonzo hopes to open up more Ambrose locations in the near future, so be on the look out!
