I went to the Woburn location. The choices were good. Nice Combination choices. Food was good, not great. I would go again as it was easy to get to and had plenty of parking. I enjoy the food more at Polcari's in Woburn. Sabatino's in Medford is much better, but only has street parking read more

The Chateau restaurant used to be a good place to get takeout but lately it has been horrible. Last saturday we ordered take out and the chicken parmigiana was awful. The pasta was over cooked and the sauce was lousy. My wife ordered chicken supreme and we got half the order. I had to go back and get the sides. This has been the second time we have had a terrible meal. I understand the pandemic pushed everybody back a few steps but I don't think we will be back. read more

ONE OF THE RUDEST RESTAURANT EXPERIENCES EVER! I am a regular customer here and decided to come here tonight with my Wife, Son, Nephew and Brother In Law at 6:30pm. After a rather long wait to be seated we were escorted by a tall guy with blonde hair and a man bun to a table in a small room even though we asked for a booth. On the way to that area we noticed many open booths we could sit at and wondered why they didn't sit us at a booth. When we said we wanted a booth he brought us back to the hallway of the dining room. This is where Kathy (brunette older lady with glasses) said to us that we "wouldn't fit." After she went back and forth with my brother in law that we wouldn't fit about three times she rudely said give it a try. She was very rude looking at my wife and I from head to toe with disgust implying that we wouldn't fit because we were "too fat". I'm a big guy (but no where near needing doorways cut open or Richard Simmons coming to see me) but I have never had a problem fitting in a booth with all the same people we were with tonight. My wife is also pregnant and she felt humiliated by Kathy's snarky and judgmental comments, tone and body language. We were sat at a booth and guess what Kathy.....? We FIT comfortably with room to spare! But you knew that... because you magically ghosted from the dining room for quite some time. When you finally came back out to the dining room we could see you giving us dirty looks after one of your coworkers told you that we were upset by your poor interaction with our party. Working in a restaurant isn't easy I get it. But you are in a hospitality business and that means you treat your customers with respect and kindness. Instead of your coworker coming over and trying to make excuses for your judgmental comments and unprofessional behavior you should have just apologized to our party and I wouldn't have made this a public issue. I'm not one to want free food or anything like that.... All we wanted was an apology from YOU Kathy. No excuses from your coworkers. This location lost us as customers for good. If you are pregnant, chubby or big and tall and don't want to be judged I recommend going elsewhere to spend your money to dine out. Kathy's fat shaming attitude should be avoided at all costs. read more

Wow. I am disappointed. Went to the chateau for Valentine's Day dinner tonight. Have been here many times before, and was great. Our waitress (don't know her name as she never introduced herself) was rushed, rude, and all over the place. Older woman with long dark hair, probably 5 ft tall. She messed up our drink orders, forgot a dessert even though she said back to us "two lava cakes" and when I tried to tell her all we wanted at once, ex: two refills on water, boxes, and the check, she said "well I'll get the drinks and then be back, I can only do one at a time" but then came back with boxes! Food was cold, probably due to sitting waiting for her to deliver it, she kept putting her dirty tray in front of us on the table to deliver things, which left no room for the food to be placed on the table. Also the bottom of her tray was smeared with sauce, and someone else's bar ticket got stuck to our table when she picked up her tray. Gross. Use the tray stands. That's what they're for. And there were several behind us lined up on the wall. She dropped off the bill, then hovered around for the money, I said oh one sec, she came back again two minutes later, while we were still eating out dessert, and had her hand out. I said oh I will be right with you...no, she did not get a good tip. Purposely. Tips are for decent service. She ruined the night. I went to warm the car, my older children (mid 20's) were still talking at the table, she picked up the cash and said "are you kidding me?" Under her breath, and then complained to her co workers she got a small tip. Not sure what her name was, but his is clearly not the job for her. It put a damper on the night. And reflected VERY poorly on the entire business. read more

Completely rude and unaccommodating staff. Went to dinner there this evening and the place was pretty much empty at 4:30. We soon found out why. Asked the hostess for a seat by the windows and she flat out said no. So she very smugly sat us in a section right next to the kitchen and began talking smack about my partner and me with her fellow waitstaff, right within earshot of our table. If she was a guy I'd probably have thrown a punch. It was that rude and homophobic. We didn't even wait to see how horrible the food and other service might be. Went next door to Chili's and had a great meal with great service. I can see why this place was empty and miserable. read more

Here for lunch. Their Alfredo taste like cream. Is it too much to ask for some garlic in it. My chicken parm and ravioli I'm sure were from last night's menu. AND WHY in an empty dinning room did we get sat next to the trash? No fresh Strawberries for my wife's drink so they asked to add puree instead. read more

The chateau charged me $21 for this small plate of penne, broccoli, and chicken. Broccoli was under cooked and chicken was like it came from a can. Very disappointed. I could have made this dish with jarred Alfredo sauce for $10. read more

I love the Chateau. BUT every time I do pick up they mess something up. I even check the bags to make sure the food count is correct. No dressing with the salad, I order Trio 3 and got penne instead of a meatball, asked for extra blue cheese with buffalo tenders and got none. Someone need to supervise the children running the front desk. Very frustrating read more

The other reviewers weren't lying--everything at Chateau comes swimming in a red sauce. I went recently with a group of 7 after 2pm, when the restaurant was pretty empty. The server asked us if we had a reservation--we told her we didn't. "Wait here," she said, leaving us exchanging glances, wondering if they would seat us or not. She finally returned, grabbed some menus and sat us at one of several large tables. After taking the first person's order, our waitress abruptly dashed away, saying another table's food was up. We waited, again exchanging confused glances. She came back and continued taking our orders. The food came out quickly--which was surprising. I opted for the eggplant parm and subbed in a side of toasted ravioli. It was.. drowning in the red sauce. Our group left stuffed, though not satisfied. Ergh. I've had my fill of that evil red sauce for a while. I probably won't be back. read more

Great food! Be careful when ordering take out! The last two times, they messed up our order! However, eating at the restaurant we have no complaints. read more

I don't mind prices going up, it's to be expected. The problem I have is that it seems as though the portions have shrunk while the prices go up. read more

Definitely impressed by some of the food here! They have some of the tastiest Fried Calamari ever! It is very non-rubbery and super fresh tasting. It comes served over a bed of jalapeños, banana peppers, and roasted red peppers. Served with a marinara sauce on the side. Get some!! We were just having a laid back night here with friends so just ordered 3 different pizzas. Their pizza is definitely legit!! Really tasty thin crust style. I was quite pleased! read more

Sat at bar on busy night with zero interaction with bartenders Food was so-so, not special but hit the spot for a quick inexpensive meal read more

I've been a long time customer at The Chateau in Andover. The last couple times the service at the Bar was terrible. We went tonight 08/15, female bartender was terrible, walked by me several times without even looking at me. Male bartender was picking up her slack, so he had difficulty, forgetting to bring my bread after I asked and serving my dinner without utensils. Two other parties were complaining about the same things, one party walked out. I"m not sure I'll be back, better service in the area. Only reason for 2 stars instead of zero is the food was good read more

Let me start off by saying I wish I could give 0 stars!! I went here last night with my family and was told it would be a 30-45 minute wait as we had a big party which was fine. We were then seated in a back room and were told our waiter would be right with us. We weren't even being acknowledged after sitting so long, not I'll be right with you, no apology nothing. After 30 minutes we were noticed by the waiter. Then in the middle of taking our drinks another woman interrupted, she then said she needed to be back to serve some hot food to another table and just walked away. At that point it was the last straw! Very rude very unprofessional! I do not recommend going here. I never felt the way that I did yesterday at any restaurant I have been ever too so we left ! read more

Place is going downhill it's not what it use to be the food is getting worse should be a shame that you call yourself an Italian restaurant .... read more

This place is legit amazing. We lived in the area for 5 years and never had their pizza. Needless to say when we ordered pizza this summer during their $8 pizza Wednesday specials we've made it our weekly treat to get their pizza. Their dinners are perfect and some are easily shareable as the portions are huge. Their meatballs are truest authentic and their trio's are our favorite. They are super efficient during COVID and have contactless pick up and pay options. Although we haven't ventured into the restaurant to sit and eat since COVID it was always very good experience. The hostesses are super pleasant over the phone! read more

The Chateau - Our go to pizza place! Wednesday's are our pizza nights - Italian Near Me - Andover, Massachusetts

I liked it despite the three stars it has. Please keep in mind that there are two sides of this restaurant. One side is more relaxed fun, tv and music playing. The other side is the dining side. I sat on the more relaxed fun atmosphere side. Michael was my server friendly attentive takes care of his guest. The food is your typical Italian food. Lots of it and is warm. I had the baked lasagna and it wasn't as baked as I thought it would have been but it was, filling and good read more

The Clam Chowder is second to none. From Ipswitch, MA all the way down to NYC, even Legal Seafood's doesn't compare. My wife Shirley and I have been coming here for years and it's about time we gave a review. We've eaten everything from Lasagna to Sirlion Tips, or Lobster Shrimp and Scallop Diavalo to the Chichen Parmasean. The service is Great the food is Great and the ambiance is Great. Ask for Rebecca cause she is always sporting a big smile and offers friendly attentive service as does everyone else. The Chateau under manager Louis will make sure your visit lives up to your highest expectations. Enjoy! read more

Service and food was great asked for a trio and salad and both were scrumptious. Can't wait to go back and try something different.

Worst takeout ever! We were visiting from out of state and the restaurant was nearby. Overpriced and terrible food. The chicken parm was like rubber, the pasta was over cooked and mushy, the salad didn't include enough dressing and they gave us no utensils! I should include that when I went to pick it up, there were 30-40 people waiting to be seating and there was absolutely no regard for social distancing. The staff did not address this at all. Extremely disappointed for an 80 dollar meal! read more

I was in the mood for pasta so a friend let me know about The Chateau. I grew up driving by the Chateau sign on the highway and I had never had the chance to dine in. Overall a good place with decent food. Big sitting areas and a big bar area as well. While it might seem fancy in a way it's a very casual place. For dinner I had "trio #2" which was lasagna, chicken parm, and alfredo. It tasted really good, and very filling! Fried ravioli with the meat sauce was so good as well! Very cheap prices. I would come back again when I want pasta! read more

It has been some time since I'd been to this restaurant ...met up with a friend who suggested we go here. Due to past experiences I would never have made the decision to go to The Chateau... But anyway. A busy Friday after work and as always the parking lot was jam packed. I'm sorry, but I just can't understand why? From the moment I walked in the door the aroma of cooking oil, along with heavy red sauce just completely turned me off. It's happened before & has absolutely killed my appetite. Tonight it happened all over again. Luckily we sat at the bar & the aroma wasn't as bad. A friendly bartender took our drink order. When served I was surprised that mine ( diet cola & Capt Morgan) was served up in such a small glass similar to a dessert one .. strange! Usually I'm given a tall glass. Anyway, there they were. One sip & what? Where , oh where is the alcohol? What can anyone do to such a simple drink? Well.... This one was awful & obviously lacking in rum. My companion ordered a salad... Nothing for me, thank you. Apparently it was ok because it was eaten. We didn't stay for a second round... It just wasn't worth it. Leaving, the scent of what I'm repulsed by wafted through the main area & I just made a run for my car & drove off. I can't under any circumstances do this again. read more

Always great food here, ordered the steak tip dinner and an avocado chicken salad for takeout. Steak tips were cooked perfectly and the salad was very fresh. Highly recommend! read more

Pasta and chicken cutlets just like mom used to make ; mushy and overcooked with frozen chicken patties (Sorry Ma). Anyone that thinks this place is "real" Italian food must pronounce it "EYEtalian". Absolutely wretched, and overpriced given the quality and portion sizes. Thankfully there was a bread basket, as it was the only food that I found palatable. read more

$18.50 for a tiny portion of fish and chips what a joke very disappointed in them after all these years

The most bland food I've ever tasted. Went here for a small event and chicken parm was my go to. So easy to get right and they got it wrong. Flavorless chicken and a bottle of ragu. read more

I haven't been in a long time, as I've moved out of the area. Last night I was fortunate enough that my husband was taking our 5 kids out, so after my 4th shift in a row as a nurse during this awful pandemic, I decided to take myself to dinner on my way home from Winchester to Nashua. I was promptly seated in the bar as the main dining area was closed. It was a cozy booth and very private. I wish I had caught my server's name, because she made the experience. The Monday night special was chicken Parmesan with pasta and either a soup or salad app with bread and butter. The soup choices were Italian wedding or minestrone. I asked my server how was the Italian wedding soup. She told me it was good, but if I didn't like it, she would be happy to replace it with minestrone or a salad!! Who does that?!? The soup was burning hot and delicious!! So good that I ordered a quart to go for my kids. My chicken parm and pasta was amazing. Al dente pasta, cutlet with crispy edges. Service perfect, drink always filled. When it was time to go, my server went above and beyond packing extra bread as I had told her in conversation that I had 5 kids. It was an amazing, relaxing experience. Whomever served me, I hope you read this you were wonderful!! I sat in the bar section, near the bathrooms. Alone. Listening to my kindle. I hope you see this and know that you made this busy mom/wife/nurse's experience awesome!!! read more

We ordered 3 items. The server was 'new' but got almost everything wrong. The food was flavorless, bland with a mixture some tomato gravy thrown into the chicken parmigiana. A bad experience to say the least. I think their best days are behind them. read more

Me and my girlfriend decided to try the chateau because we are looking for a place to have our reception the bread was awesome we are bread lovers I ordered the chicken and veal parmigiana and spaghetti it was awesome my girlfriend had the lobster shrimp and scallops Diablo with spaghetti it was awesome I had the Italian ma ti and sangria great drinks our server Nate was great read more

Great place. Cozy. The waitress was great. It was Monday evening so the service was fat too. 4 stars for the bread. Come on this is Italian restaurant. Bread should be served warm. read more

The food is great and the services is equally great but the reason for this review is because of the way they handled a situation today. I had a large gathering planned for Mother's Day and ordered catering trays of food. A big order. Unfortunately, COVID hit and we discovered it just hours before our pick up time which was 11:45 am. When the restaurant started answering the phone at 10 am I told them the situation expecting to have to pay something because of the unavoidable short notice. Michelle, the general manager, was great! She allowed me to cancel the order and get a full refund on my credit card. I am so relieved... They have a happy loyal customer! Thank you Chateau we'll be back with that order when everyone is healthy. read more

Stopped in after a medical appointment in Boston with Ward's Mom (MIL). Haven't been here in forever (2015 according to my last review). Tuesday is "Kids Eat Free Night" we discovered. The place was BUSY. Menu varied, Italian stuff, pizzas, steak tips & seafood. PRO - Seated quickly & they had my favorite kind of wine. They had MIL's as well. She actually said 'this is good". Waitress brought us nice fresh thick cut slices of Scali bread with (sadly)rock hard butter. MIL got a turkey club sandwich. Nothing to write home about with deli turkey but she said it hit the spot. I ordered the "new" Cod Piccatta over angel hair pasta with mushrooms. It was really good! Tasty, lemony sauce, lots of mushrooms & capers & a nice piece of sauteed or baked cod on top. Was enough to take some home for lunch today. CON - See above about it being Kids Night? It was busy & NOISY. Food took a good while to arrive & the fries with turkey club were totally just average. Our waitress was super busy (lots of tables & we were on the furthest edge), so we had to flag another waitress down to get MIL some extra mayo for her sandwich.The bill took a good while as well. The slow service dropped my review down a star. Wasn't her fault, she wasn't goofing off, she was just too busy. Management should put another waitress on. SO - I was pleasantly surprised. That piccata sauce was very tasty. I'll definitely give it another try soon, but not on a Tuesday night. If you got young kids, definitely give it a try. If not, try The Chateau on any night but Tuesday! I'll be back. read more

We held my parents' 50th anniversary party in the Tuscany room, which was large enough for our party and felt more elegant than the main restaurant. I believe our servers were Cindy and Becca. They were very helpful when we were setting up and throughout the night. The food was good and everyone had a nice time. Compared to other venues, the Chateau was reasonably priced and easy to deal with. I recommend the Chateau for an event. read more

only went there because it was a fund raiser. wasn't great last time I was there. got chicken parm with Angel hair around$22. sauce tasted like tomato paste, cutlet was no doubt a frozen patty, and pasta wasn't hot actually barely warm. didn't dare order anything else! didn't eat it either took it home cause I have sauce made to use on the pasta.didn't send it back because I hated the sauce. don't go! read more

We've been here a few times in the past and it's been great. I always get the chicken marsala. However, on this visit it was a not very busy Saturday. We joined the rest of our group who were already seated and it took at least 10 minutes for someone to ask us if we wanted drinks. I could deal with that, but the chicken marsala was not up to par as it has been in the past. The marsala sauce was so thick and cold. It is obviously premade but no one bothered to heat it thoroughly. It looked like refrigerated turkey gravy. I sent it back with the waitress and she brought me a new one. Under the chicken the sauce was the same. I sent it back with the manager who agreed it didn't look right. Didn't bother trying a third time. He did remove it from the bill but no one even asked about dessert before they dropped the check off. Too bad. We usually love this place. read more

If you would like to have a major event ruined, then you need to come to the Chateau for the event. We recently stopped to celebrate the 65th wedding anniversary of my parents. Front desk did a good job of getting our part of 12 seated fairly quickly, unfortunately that was the highlight of the evening. We only had one waitress for such a large party and are requests for extra help was ignored by the waitress that was assigned. It took over 30 minutes just to get our drink orders placed and another 20 for the drinks to start showing up. When the drinks where being delivered the waitress had no clue who ordered what, was throwing napkins all over the place and just totally confused about the whole process. Appetizers and entrée orders where placed as we had already been at the table for over an hour. Of course, they both showed up at the same time, which is a major failure on the staff and kitchen. Have of the appetizers when untouched. The entrees came in stages as again we only had one person to cover the table of 12. For the most part the food was overcooked, bland and of such poor quality, it seemed like it would have been better served and sold in a can at a discount store. It is nothing better than mass produced imitation Italian cuisine being passed off as fine dining. The restaurant delivered a slice of cake to my parents with a candle to acknowledge their 65 years together, as a few others ordered deserts to go, since we had now been at the restaurant for close to three hours. When we completed the meal we waited and waited for the bill to arrive, once it came we reminded the waitress that we wanted the bill to be divided into separate families for payment. The bill came as one total price and we ended up arguing with the waitress for about 20 minutes to get it divided as we asked before the meal. At this point the waitress did not go about splitting the check, a very simple process in a computer system. Instead she started to write out what each person had ordered and then do the math herself. Needless to say this is so unprofessional and her total lack of interest was beyond understanding. She stayed and discussed why they don't breakout the checks, refused to get a manager after we repeated asked for one. On top off this almost three hour nightmare, I noticed that we got charged $4.50 for the cake that was delivered and truly never ordered. For a company to provide a celebration offering and then change it back to the ticket is just further proof that the company has lost its desire to serve customers. My advice for anyone is to avoid this restaurant and do everything possible to warn others of this poor excuse of a restaurant. read more

7oz Steak? FALSE. 4oz SCAM Long story short, I meal prep every weekend and weigh all my food. I didn't have time this weekend so i decided to order the 7oz steak with just broccoli because thats a great option for me. I also work nights so I picked my food up and brought it back to work with me. its about an hour and a half later and i can finally take a break and eat. Well, I can EASILY notice this steak is small. Lucky me, I have a food scale on my desk. It's 4oz. FOUR OUNCES when I paid $20 for a fraud 7oz steak. I have the picture to prove it in case anyone questions my integrity. read more
