Andiamo Restaurant + Bar, Newburyport

Service excellent. Sarah was our waitress. Drinks, appetizers:calamari & aranchini and for entrees: the filet, salmon dishes were good. Chocolate cake for dessert was yummy. It was just filling after all we ate. Portions fine, meals a bit salty but, overall we enjoyed it all, especially the ambiance.

My husband and I enjoyed a delightful dining experience here. I cannot adequately describe how wonderfully creative and flavorful are the meal preparations. I had the swordfish, and my husband the tagliatelle. It's amazing how the chef blends flavors and complimentary sides. The service is superbly friendly and attentive. Mark, our host and manager was extraordinarily good on overseeing the full customer experience. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. The bread and olive oil dip was unbelievably good. The ambience is the right blend of slightly fancy but casual. Prices are very reasonable, too. We are certain to make this an oft repeated evening out. We left feeling happy that we had truly had a lovely time and a delicious meal.

This was such a great ambiance, meal, and date night to be at! There was live music playing on the bar side. It was raining the day we went but there is outdoor seating on nicer days. Meals are on the smaller side but taste amazing! Also the menu is a little short. My fiance got the butternut squash filled ravioli and I tried some, very good! I got the pan seared salmon with sweet potatoes and broccoli I. The salmon was cooked really well but on the blander side, was everything else complimented it really well. Staff was friendly and service was fast! I would definitely come here again with more people!

I was not a big fan of the food. I ordered stuffed shells and they were swimming in sauce. There was more sauce in the bowl than anything else. I will say that the bread was fantastic though. Probably some of the best bread I have ever had. The atmosphere was alright but very dark in the back dining room. The service was absolutely outstanding. My waiter was friendly and fun so it is unfortunate that the food was so disappointing.

What an excellent dinner! There was six of us that got four different dinners. All of them were Great! A nice touch was that the chef came out to ask how our meals were. Everything is homemade, tasted awesome and priced reasonable. We'll be back... it was our first time, but not the last time. Highly recommended!

Pedestrian Although the waitress and manager were very good, the food did not approach its billing. I wanted to take a look into the kitchen to see why. My chicken parmigiana came with blackened edges and bottom, and the sauce was less than inspiring. I would grade the meal a D Also, I have never had so little wine by the "glass" at any restaurant. So....get a new head chef and put an ounce or two more in the wine glasses. Until then, I'll spend my money elsewhere.

Excellent experience this past Friday night. The great atmosphere and outstanding staff are just the beginning. All the food is amazing as the night went on I was able to talk with other patrons and everyone there loved their food. There was dancing all night long and laughter throughout the night. I will definitely be back and intend to visit the Chelmsford location as well!!! 5 Stars are not even enough!!!

Went to Andiamo tonight for a romantic date night and couldn’t have been more disappointed! Service from Rachel was miserable! I asked for a knife for my girlfriend and she questioned if we really needed a knife!!! Just bring the knife! Is this your first day??? Then she brought the wrong entree and never came back to ask about refills of our wine! We sat with empty wine glasses trying to enjoy a rushed meal while manager and staff turned on bright lights to set up for brunch! Meanwhile bartender stated owner was at home watching live feed in his IPad! We will never go back!!! Terrible experience!

Atmosphere was okay, service was okay, food was disappointing and overpriced. I paid $11 for a beet salad with 4 slices of beets and mostly arugula lettuce. Glass of Pinot noir was $14. Overall NOT worth it to me. The server at first told us we had to use cocktail napkins when we ordered food separately at a networking event we needed to sit down to enjoy it. They came back a few minutes later with proper lap napkins. I try not to go to this restaurant if I can avoid doing so. I previously had a terrible birthday experience at this restaurant and the only reason I attended on this day was to support the event being held there. This restaurant has apparently changed hands over the years, and it is no longer the great place that it sounds like it was prior. I would not recommend.

I really liked this place. Best fried calamari in Newburyport for sure. Amazingly crispy yet edible and the sweet glaze over is just to die for. I had the flatbread and my fiancé had the chicken Parmesan. The sauce used in my flatbread tasted almost “old” in a sense. Everything else about the flatbread was delicious. But the sauce was just too strong for my liking, but it wasn’t bad. I just personally wouldn’t order it again. The chicken Parmesan was amazing though. The chicken was clearly marinated in lots of lemon as you could even smell it. The cheese was great, sauce was good. Plentiful portion. I enjoyed my visit here and will most likely visit again when I’m craving calamari and chicken Parmesan.
