We ate at the North Andover location last night with another couple. Reservations were easy and our table was available when we arrived. As with the Andover location, the service was excellent, the menu compelling, the cocktails generous, and the food beautifully and competently prepared. We would love to continue patronizing both locations, but they both suffer from the same issue - an overly loud environment ... so much ambient noise , that conversation was more than difficult. The server said that week nights weren't so loud, but that limits options. As much as we'd love to go back, the noise factor will likely prevent us from doing so. Others have complained about this issue - maybe management can do something to ameliorate the din. read more

Very modern, we went there on a Saturday night no reservations needed. We ordered a charcuterie board & fried calamari for appetizers and my main course was chicken parmesan. The charcuterie boars was very good, a good variety of meats, cheese, olives and other foods. The fried calamari was cooked perfect. When you over fry calamari, it's chewy, this wasnt. Portions were plentiful. My chicken parm was plentiful as well served with rigatoni. Sauce or gravy was good. read more

Love the food and service at Andiamo's. Always consistently good and reasonably priced!!! It's one of our regulars!

My coworkers and I were looking for a quick dinner after work in the Lawrence / Andover area. We picked this place by chance and we were pleasantly surprised. The area / location seemed like it is new build. The interior is beautiful and very clean. We were here on a Monday night without reservations and were seated quickly as it wasn't crowded. We started with a sampler of apps with the Burrata and wow that was the most delicious started I've had. The complimentary bread and oil were also top notch, the bread was warm and seasoned. For mains we got short ribs and mushroom and goat cheese flatbread. The serving sizes were large (not complaining!). The service was prompt, kind and attentive. The bill was reasonable. Overall a great experience! We will definitely be back soon. read more

Appetizers and salads are really good. Shannon, the bartender is incredible. Entrées are above average, but not what I would expect from an Italian restaurant at the price point. read more

Albeit we did not have reservations on Saturday, we were there at 4:30. We asked for a booth. Hostess refused to seat us anywhere except the table by the door. The worst table in the restaurant because it is right by the door which blows cold when it is opened. She said it was because they were full with reservations. However, when we left at 5:45, no parties had been seated at the booths. In addition, the waitress who waited on us had 3+ tables, 2 of which were large parties. She was nice, and clearly busy waiting on 2 large parties. The other waitress had 2 tables of 2 people, both of whom were already eating and/or finishing. We have been to Andiamo several times and have always enjoyed our time. This time was different. I approached the hostess as we were leaving and she said the other tables were reserved for 6:30. It was 5:45 when we left. She blamed it on the owner. Now I understand why this restaurant only has 3-stars. Dinner was ok. Not delicious, not bad. Just ok. We won't be back. Too many other good restaurants available. read more

Went here on New Year's Eve for the first time. Did not disappoint, the food was excellent as well as the service. I had the bill chopped Marcella, which was more than enough for two people. It was excellent. My husband had the special surf and turf, steak and scallops. Delicious but so much food, dinner for tomorrow read more

We got a large order to go. The place was very attractive inside. We need to try the sit-down restaurant. Service was outstanding, the people were friendly and helpful and the order was packed beautifully with thought. That burger was awesome. The meat blend was great and flavorful. The pork belly bacon was so good and it's rare to see it, I was very happy. Flatbread pizza was tasty but a bit small. It was fine for my daughter but she polished it pretty quickly. That's a good thing too because she liked it. My wife enjoyed the Burrata and heirloom tomato salad but the tomato's were out of season, not the restaurants fault here. Now for my favorite part, the desserts. The butter cake was to die for. My wife had it but I stole a bunch of it. The Tiramisu was light and delicious. Not crazy about the chipwich cookie texture b it the flavor was there. Too crumbly but a bowl and spoon took care of that. Overall we were impressed and will order from them again. We'll also try the restaurant which's looks really nice and comfortable. Top marks. read more

Previously been twice- the third time is likely to be the last for awhile. Normally love their food but don't know what happened. The prosciutto wrapped mozzarella was not crispy- it was more so deli meat which was a bummer and off putting. The part that is making me write this review is for the chef who saw I didn't touch my Marsala. When asked if everything was ok- I told him I don't eat onions and didn't see this listed on the menu. His only response was that they cook a lot with them. No offer of a replacement or any sort of remedy. Beautiful space, attentive waitress... please bring back the ravioli read more

We drove from Newburyport in a driving rainstorm. And, would (and will) do again. In a heartbeat. Ambiance: Exciting room-high ceiling, refreshingly stark, the space was comfortable for a 4-top dinner. Bar was packed but room was surprisingly not too noisy (we all noted that it was not as loud as expected). SERVICE: Our server Ezikiel was a treasure; friendly greeting with an in-depth knowledge of the menu items and ingredients. Attentive, there when we needed him. We'll ask for him next week. FOOD: Burrata & HEIRLOOM Salad, Delicious, creamy, and beautiful Heirlooms. Crispy Prosciutto wrapped Mozzarella: Crowd Pleaser, gone. Semolina Calamari: Distinctively delicious BOLOGNESE: Exactly what you're dreaming of: Perfect pasta with rich, delicious short-rib. Just delicious. HANGER STEAK: Best piece of beef I'd had in a long time, Serious char on the outside, MedRare, as ordered. Absolutely Perfect. Dessert Board (not that we needed it) is wonderfully full of surprises. Overall: A+. Congrats Chef Rogers, Trish & his Team: It's the new go-to. We'll drive. Happily. read more

We hosted a Family Celebration for our daughter's Birthday last weekend. From the beginning of the planning process, Event Manager, Victor Antolini was available to answer any questions I had. The new GM, Christopher greeted us on our arrival. He was very professional and helpful. The Event Room was set up perfectly for the number of guests and the tables looked lovely. Our server, Stephanie E was amazing...she took care of all of our food and beverage needs and was superbly helpful throughout the afternoon. All of our guests really enjoyed the food choices. Overall, it was a delightful experience! read more

Terrible Mother's Day brunch. We will never go back. I sent my concerns privately but no one responded. You should be embarrassed by what you passed off as a Morhers day brunch! read more

A cute Italian restaurant with excellent service! The appetizer flat bread, bread and dip were so good I only had room for some of my spaghetti and meatballs. They made a delicious second meal the next day. read more

Andiamo Restaurant + Bar opened its North Andover location last week. The place has a modern atmosphere with high ceilings, full U-shaped bar with high chair seating 3 TVs, sectioned areas with tables and booths and an open kitchen concept. Upbeat music pumps over the speakers. Like the other locations, the dinner menu offerings include Italian American dishes such as pasta, steaks, seafood, chicken, burgers, salads, flatbreads, appetizers, desserts, and a kids menu. A brunch menu is offered on Sundays. They also have a bar menu with wine list, signature cocktails and beer. The prices here are moderate to high. I stopped in at Andiamo Restaurant + Bar in North Andover for dinner recently. The dining room was half full on a Monday night and I took a seat up at the bar to catch the Bruins game on TV. Upbeat music was playing over the speakers, but I heard "Bones" by Maren Morris played three times during my visit, which is actually a good thing. The bartender brought over some ice water and menus. For a starter, I started out with the Eggplant Stack ($15 plus tax), a stack of crispy baked eggplant slices, cauliflower ricotta, pomodoro sauce, & zucchini noodles, served slightly warm and grated cheese was offered. This appetizer was a great choice, good flavors, and not too heavy. I was also served complementary soft bread with oil, garlic, and spices to dip, which was very good. For a dinner entree, the Duck Carbonara ($24 full size plus tax) served in a bowl with egg paparadelle noodles, pork belly, crisp pancetta, tender duck confit, wild mushrooms, firm green peas, and shaved parmigiano in a rich cream sauce. This pasta dish was filling and had good flavors. I did chew on a thick bone piece though. I requested a box half way through and passed on the dessert offer since I already had a big ice cream cookie sandwich at The Cookie Monstah earlier. The check was $41.73 with tax and before tip. Overall, a nice place for food and drinks with a lively modern atmosphere. I will have to come back for Sunday brunch! read more

Outstanding!! The gluten free pizza is so good! It's made fresh, not frozen! Definitely the best GF pizza I've had. read more

Stopped in tonight for a drink and dessert. OMG the chocolate bread pudding was amazing!! We've never had room for dessert as we are usually stuffed after apps & dinner. This is definitely worth skipping the apps and splitting an entree for - save room for this!! (Service great as usual!!). read more

This food is just so good. We had our baby shower here. Our friends and family still talk about how good the food and drinks were. The dinner service is also spectacular. Planning our shower with them was easy and their space is really lovely. They were accommodating for all of our needs. read more

I'm being generous with three stars. Ordered the Eggplant Stack for an appetizer, it had no flavor. When the server asked how it was I told her it had no flavor, her reply, "well it's Vegan"! Vegans use spices. We ordered the Wild Mushroom flatbread that was fair and the Chicken Milanese and guess what? Bland and no flavor. The pasta the chicken was sitting on was inedible. Someone in the kitchen needs to learn how to add some spices to their cooking. #basil #garlic #oregano read more

Date night at Andiamo No Andover last night. 1st time there, and what a pleasant surprise. A martini filled to the rim which you don't always get at other places. Wine list is small, but selection and prices are very reasonable. Menus is straightforward and simple to understand. Apps, wow...fried calamari was outstanding, love the balsamic, honey glaze. Crispy prosciutto wrapped mozzarella was spot on and plenty of it. Wife and I both had the Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese - and it did not disappoint. A nightcap espresso martini was colorfully presented. Our server Jen was quite pleasant and knowledgeable of the menu having been working there only a couple of weeks. Looking forward to going back and trying other menu items. High fives to the Andiamo team. read more

Got takeout. Guy helping me super rude. Got the same thing we always get but it was completely different. Had to throw it out as we had an allergy. Called restaurant and they just did not care. Same guy. Rude again. I would suggest if you dare eat here is to ask specifically what is in, exactly, what you are ordering. Apparently they put in whatever they feel regardless of what is on the menu. read more

The high top tables for 2 along the wall next to the bar are to high. I'm 5'10" and my wife is the same height and our legs were swinging in the air. My legs were sore after about 10 minutes. Those seats should be swapped out with lower seats or the foot bar should be raised. The eggplant stack was very bland. The Caesar salad was underwhelming with only a few pieces of Parmesan cheese. It would have been much better to get that fresh at the table. Only 4 croutons in the salad as well and a small portion. Meatballs were good but at this price level I expect fresh made pasta and this was out of the box. My wife's main course of shrimp and swordfish was not good. She said the swordfish did not taste fresh and left it on the plate. Our server disappeared during the long wait time for our main courses. She wasn't observant at all and never mentioned the swordfish left on my wife's plate. She did try to upsell us on wine and desert. The bus boy had a good personality and I think he'd be better as a waiter. Pinot noir was excellent. The table next to us ordered 20 minutes after we did but got their food 15 minutes before us. I would recommend skipping this restaurant at this time. read more

We went here last night for the 1st time and it will be our last time. The staff was amiable, and the environment was beautiful but the food was not good. I had the chicken parmesan, which is the worst I have ever tasted. The chicken was very rubbery and the marinara sauce was so salty that I could not eat my pasta. I told the waitress and she was very apologetic and offered to have it remade without the salt but by this time it was too late. My husband ordered the pasta Bolognese and it was not good. I would not recommend either dish. read more

The food is terrific with big portions. We sat at the bar and had great service. The bartender took the time to put cute little hearts on my espresso martini. The owner also came over to give his suggestions on what we should order. He told us to order the chicken parm over a bed of bolognese pasta - terrific!! read more

I reached out to the restaurant on Monday of this week to arrange an order for catering. I called and was first told that the owner Jim is the only one that takes the catering orders but he's on vacation until Wednesday mind you the party is Saturday the 18th. I was told to call or email him which I did with no response for about 24 hours I had a question about the menu so I called the restaurant again and then was told that Jim would be out for 10 days now so from the start it was a very uncertain feeling. On the 14th Jim emailed me just to let me know that he would be returning on the 15th and asked for a good phone number to call me at which I provided and he would call me so as on 1 pm I hadn't heard from anyone so I reached out to see if he had time to finalize my order no response. At 3:36 Jim responded back answering a few questions but no phone call and no confirmation. At 4:57 I emailed my final order request and kindly asked for a confirmation no response at 7:31 I nicely emailed him asking if he had a chance to finalize and if he was able to send a confirmation with the party on Saturday I just needed the piece of mind. Jim answered me back at 7:50 finally and had the nerve to tell me that " Hi Jacqeline, I think due to the fact that i cant respond to you quick enough we will not be able to do the catering order. Best Jim" How completely unprofessional and rude is that?! I did nothing wrong here and if Jim doesn't want to deal with the catering and people's questions then he should delegate the job to someone else. Beware don't eat here do not order catering give your business to a better human this one doesn't deserve it. read more

I went here first the first time and it is a beautiful restaurant. Staff are nice but service was very slow at a 6pm on a Thursday and it wasn't full but server was great. I got the butternut squash ravioli and it was very sweet which was not appetizing but it was beautifully presented read more

Just keep driving. The food here was great but the service was horrendous. On a Wednesday night in a mostly empty restaurant, I expect more attention than every 15-20 min. We had to flag down our waiter for everything, seemed like he was deliberately avoiding us. read more

Great drinks but subpar food. Wish it wasn't the case since I live so close to the establishment and it had potential - but the food is just not cutting it. The expresso martini at the bar is excellent- the bartenders are great the cooks not so much. read more

I've been here a handful of times and it's been great every time. Great cocktails especially the Sicilian Manhattan! Tried just about every appetizer and all are very good. Definitely will continue to visit Andiamo's and try the rest of the entrees. read more

I keep wanting to have a good experience, but every time I dine here the food is just bleh and last night's service was the worst service I've ever had. For spending almost $200 every time I go, I can honestly say Albert Einstein was right- "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results." There are plenty of other great restaurants in the area, wouldn't recommend this one to anyone. read more

My husband and I went with my daughter as we had a gift card to use. A friend had recently eaten there and ordered Italian food and wasn't impressed so we wanted to stay away from pasta dishes. We started with sangria and the antipasto platter which was delicious. I didn't care for the bread that came with the platter but the complimentary bread was great. My husband and I ordered short ribs and my daughter ordered bolognese on gf pasta. She liked her dinner but said that I make it with more flavor. We loved our short rib dinners! I also ordered a side of broccolini which was super Al dente. It was even difficult to cut it with a knife so I wouldn't order it again. The meat was so tender and I liked the sweet potato chips on top. I think I would rather the traditional mashed potatoes served with it instead of the ravioli. Call me old fashioned I guess. Our waitress was good but she also had a very large table of 16 so she wasn't very attentive to us. We would definitely return! read more

Met a friend for appetizers. Asked what their non-alcoholic beverages they had and was shown one brand of canned beer. When I was looking at menu there were 4 mock tails but at that point I had ordered a ginger ale. We ordered 3 apps - two of which were literally inedible. The fried calamari was fishy and bland and the grilled prosciutto with mozzarella was absolutely awful. The zucchini and eggplant was dense but luckily the garlic bread was tasty. Lastly, the bartenders asked my friend if she wanted a refill on her wine 4-5 times. At no point did they ask if I'd like a refill on my ginger ale. Very very disappointed. It should be noted that I have never had this experience at the Andover Andiamo. Will not be returning. read more

Wanted to update my review after finally coming back to try the food. I'll give 3 stars still because the bar service was the only positive experience and they make a fantastic martini! The food is sadly not what I was hoping for. The meatball had a very off texture and flavor, bread was almost crumbly like, and most importantly which was the biggest disappointment of the evening was over hearing some guy wearing a chefs jacket snapping at some women at the bar who were saving a seat for their friend. I hate to see a business that could have potential not properly, however, if you're looking for just a cocktail to end the night this could still be a good spot! read more

Have now had three bad experiences at Andiamo. Probably won't try it again. Due to the bad experiences the first two times, I just got a Caesar salad thinking that would be a safe route. The portion was small, which didn't matter because the greens were wilted and few a bit brown on the edges. The dressing tasted store bought. And they included a SINGLE anchovy. Pretty pathetic looking salad. The single anchovy was comical at least. My coworkers margarita pizza was ice cold and said the sauce tasted like it was out of a can. The "superfood" salad bowl or whatever it's called was 90% greens with a comical dusting of quinoa and other ingredients that reminded me of my single anchovy. Another coworkers grilled chicken breast didn't look like it had been tenderized or prepped at all. Just a thick ball of dense chicken. No one in the group left happy. read more

The place is beautiful. The drinks are amazing. The service is great. The prices are fair. But the food, well, it's adequate, basically lacking in taste. Shout out to Leandro, our waiter, who was super attentive, friendly, and even entertaining. Chefs just need to up the ante a bit. I'll return in a few months. read more

I had the rigittoni bolognaise, and it was terrible! The sauce was tasteless! Our server was kind enough not to charge us for that! My husband had the Flatbread Pizza and his meatballs tasted like sawdust! We were told by a friend that their bread was delicious, but it tasted like stale white bread! We won't be going back! read more

We were accommodated with a last minute reservation for two at 6 pm on NYE. Our table was ready when we arrived. The restaurant is gorgeous and the kitchen is open for viewing. Owners were on site working hard to make sure everything flowed. Our waiter, Ezekiel, was friendly and attentive. The freshly baked focaccia and oil dipping sauce were absolutely divine and the drinks were outstanding. We had the Andiamo Tini which was the best lemon drop I've ever had and an espresso martini which had a beautiful presentation and was also delicious. (Per request it was made with decaf espresso). The drinks were made with house infused vanilla vodka and homemade limoncello which is probably why they were so good! And of course the talents of the bartender on duty . We had raw oysters (tasted very fresh) and the vegan eggplant stack to start. Although I prefer the ricotta, my husband who has a dairy allergy was happy with this choice on the menu and it was very good. Our entrees were chicken piccata and the veal chop. The veal chop was breaded, and my husband would prefer grilled. I bet the chef would grill it for him next time if he asked. They were so accommodating. It was flavorful as is though. Chicken piccata was great. Our requests for side substitutions were granted with no problems. For dessert we shared a wonderful apple crisp and had cappucinos. We will be back! read more

I have been coming to andiamos in the Andover location for a few years and have never had anything bad to say about it. The owner is so sweet and has always come over to check on how our food, service was etc. I went to the North Andover location for the first time and was even more impressed. The food is still amazing and the cucumber martini was perfect. We sat at the bar tops and Kaylie was our server and she was so nice and on top of everything. Ezekiel also came over to check on us and was just super nice. The vibe is really nice here too. Definitely coming back :) read more

Bread isn't great. Tasted like it should be gluten free. Had an app ehh. This will fit in nicely with the other North Andover restaurants. It's a 3 which is good,fine, adequate read more

Tonight my son and daughter-in-law took me out for a birthday dinner. Although we had a reservation we waited almost a half hour before we began service and only then because my daughter-in-law went to the desk and asked if anyone was available. We ordered two chicken piccata meals and one veal chop and one shrimp cocktail to be served with the meal. Another long wait. The chicken and veal were over cooked but the pasta was almost uncooked. Again we waited after finishing for another half hour until,once again, my daughter-in-law went to the desk and asked if anyone was available. Two hours for a one course not good meal. Not much in the way of apology. Sadly not the 80th birthday dinner my children expected. read more

My husband and I had a phenomenal time dining at Andiamo's new location. We sat at the bar for some drinks and appetizers. Our bartender Jen, was absolutely amazing. Great to talk to and a very talented bartender. My husband and I split a Caesar salad and wild mushroom flat bread. Both were delicious. 10/10 would recommend trying this new location, especially if Jen is working on the bar. read more
