The Ambered Jack dining room with a stone fireplace
Our Story

A Burnsville mainstay since the 1960s

Long before it was The Ambered Jack, this spot was the original Amber Jack of the late ’60s and ’70s. Today it is a family-run, from-scratch Italian kitchen led by Laura and her husband Derrick.

Stone walls, a crackling fireplace, and recipes made by hand. There is a reason neighbors keep coming back.

What neighbors are saying

“This is the best place by far for excellent food and atmosphere. The lasagna is absolutely fantastic, and the stingin’ honey garlic wings are the best flavor I have ever had. The best restaurant in Burnsville, hands down.”

Geoff W.Google Review

“This restaurant is a little hidden gem. The best food ever and they have so many choices. The staff are so kind and go out of their way, and the owner is super sweet. I highly recommend this place.”

Madison O.Google Review

“I ate here with a party of 10 and the service was amazing! All of our food came out at the same time and our drinks were never empty. I highly recommend the pizza and bone-in wings. BEST PIZZA IN TOWN!”
