We sat the the bar for our Valentine's day date, the restaurant was completely booked but we ended up having the best time. The bartenders were both so friendly and directed me to some great off the menu cocktails they were working on, pepper infused tequila in mine was so good. My boyfriend had the Filet which was mammoth and... More

We had a 6:30 reservation to meet friends. When we first arrived, there was a strong smell of cooking (like a "fryer" type of smell) which was a bit of a turn-off. Drinks and appetizers came out in a reasonable time frame and were basically good. Then we waited for an HOUR for our food order to arrive. My wife... More

A waste of $170.00 (before tip)!!! Exhaust fan wasn’t working and our clothes reek!! The meals took over an hour to get to our table and when they did two out of the four meals had to go back, one was cold and the other was burnt and cold…. No manager on duty. I will never go to this place... More

We had a great meal there last night with a party of six. The waitstaff were friendly and attentive. We had reservations for 8:30 so the major crowds were gone and we pretty much closed down the joint. The outside does not look that inviting, but inside was warm and intimate. The food was fantastic. I had the chicken parm... More

Excellent Dinner Tonight for our 18th anniversary. This is as good as any place in the North End - Outstanding Italian Restaurant in Andover. We had the Salmon and Veal, we both said it was as good as we've had. Clam Chowder was Amazing and I am very picky, big chunks of clams, great taste and topped with littlenecks. We... More

We arrived at the restaurant ~7:15 on a Saturday night. This was our first (and last) visit. We were seated immediately. The room where we were seated wasn't very busy, but filled up a bit later. Our drinks order was taken after only a short wait and brought to the table promptly. By the time the drinks were delivered, our... More

The good food we had here was almost completely overshadowed by the hour-long wait to get the food. A member of the waitstaff told us they were "really busy", but we could see numerous empty tables. Hamburger with mushrooms, lasagna, mushroom pizza, and Tuscan pepper pizza were each quite enjoyable, but after waiting for an hour, we would have eaten... More

First time here and we will definitely return. The food was very tasty and exactly what I was looking for - good, hearty Italian food. We stuck with the basics - lasagna and fettuccine alfredo. Both were excellent. The started salad had great flavor but some of the greens were older than I prefer. Portions are generous - we had... More

My husband and I chose the Andover area because it was the half-way point to meet friends. Andolinis looked interesting, so we thought we'd give it a try. Positive Points: Our service was excellent and the food was fantastic. It was quiet outside and easy to talk. We often meet friends who we haven't seen in a long time, only... More
