 About
Andiamo
Austin, TX
Located in a
small
shopping
center a
block West
of the
Domain, Andiamo
is a hidden gem
just north
of US 183 in
Austin.
The locally
owned and
operated
restaurant
is easy to
miss in the
shadow of
the colossal
retailers
surrounding
it, but the
simple
strip-mall
facade of Andiamo's
masks an
elegant
Italian
eatery that
serves
five-star
cuisine at a
fair price.
 Superior
Service at
Andiamo
Austin, TX
Opening in
2004,
Andiamo is
Austin's perfect
place for a
romantic
dinner or a
leisurely
lunch
meeting.
Small crowds
and a
quiet
atmosphere
make it
ideal for
conversation.
The service
is
top-notch:
servers have
an intimate
knowledge of
the menu and
are helpful
in selecting
the right
wine to pair
with
different
plates.
The relaxed
pace of
dining - a
meal at Andiamo
could easily
last 2 hours
- doesn't
keep the
kitchen from
getting
plates out
in a timely
fashion.
As soon as
one course
is finished
the next is
promptly
served.

be a better
way to spend
a weekday
evening.

 A
Taste of
Andiamo's
Menu
For those
who can't
settle on
one dish,
the Menu
Dello Chef
($52) is a
treat
unmatched by
other
Italian
venues.
This
five-course
meal lets
the chef get
creative and
serve a
one-of-a-kind
dinner with
antipasto,
pasta, fish,
meat, and a
desert.
On the
evening we
ate there,
the
appetizer
was a
lobster
ravioli in a
saffron
cream sauce
topped with
one lone
magnificent
shrimp,
followed by
an arugula
salad with
artichokes
and Pecorino
Romano
cheese.
Next were
swordfish
with shitake
mushrooms
and roasted
red peppers
and a crispy
lamb rib
chop with
spinach and
a balsamic
reduction.
For dessert,
crepes with
a cool
vanilla
filling
garnished
with
raspberries
and mint
were served
with warm
blueberry
compote. |
