Ambrogio15 Pacific Beach is where it all started. The original location, the original team, and the table that built everything that came after.
Ten years later, the concept has grown. Our signature thin-crust Milano pizza remains at the heart of Ambrogio15, now joined by handmade pastas, seasonal dishes, and a broader expression of the Italian cooking that has always shaped who we are.
The point of view is still our Milanese roots: thoughtful sourcing, ingredients with a sense of place, and a menu that brings together traditions from across Italy without losing sight of where we come from.
This is Ambrogio15: Milano Pizza & Modern Trattoria, the next chapter of our original Pacific Beach home.
Every dish on this menu has a story. They are the actual reasons the dish exists: the thought, the memory, the problem being solved, the moment it became what it is.
The flour has been milled by the same family in northern Italy for 191 years. The olive oil is Taggiasca from Liguria. The tomato is Piennolo del Vesuvio. The mozzarella is buffalo, from Campania. Everything on your table was chosen, not sourced.
Named San Diego’s Best Italian Wine List by Gambero Rosso, Ambrogio15 proudly curates a selection of biodynamic and natural wines from small-scale Italian producers.
Each bottle is chosen for its story, region, and perfect pairing with our Milan-style pizzas, chef-crafted pastas, and seasonal specials, offering wines that are authentic, expressive, and reasonably priced.
