Great restaurant. Staff was attentive and checked in with us. Had the meatballs and Chicken Piccata. Price was reasonable. Check it out if you're in Mystic! read more

I had high hopes for Andiamo, but sadly was extremely disappointed. I am new to the Mystic area and seeing that this restaurant rated so highly I was excited to order some takeout with my daughter after moving some things into our new apartment. Ordering was very easy online, even though the prices seemed a bit high. We ordered $109 worth of food...Arancini ($16), garlic bread with cheese($16), Penne al Vodka with sautéed chicken($32), and the Alfredo with chicken cutlet($38). I was expecting a lot for prices like these. The Arancini were 5 pieces the size of golf balls and the flavor was ok, not worth $16, out garlic bread with cheese ($16) was left out of our order, the penne vodka with sautéed chicken ($32) was dry and there were 5 small pieces of chicken, and the baked penne chicken Alfredo had broken sauce, full of grease and almost inedible...I threw out most of it. I expected so much more from this establishment. The parking lot was packed and parking just to get takeout was challenging, but the food and prices were amazingly disappointing. We may try their pizza to see if that is any better, but I would not recommend the pasta dishes. I can see charging g prices like that if the pasta was homemade, but even that is a stretch. 3 stars is generous read more

The food was good overall, though the scallops were a bit tough. Our server was excellent. We didn't really get to enjoy the decor or ambiance since we were seated in a more closed-off rectangular section. The host repeatedly reminded us that they needed the table back by a certain time, and the impression it gave us was that it was due to another reservation. However, there were plenty of empty tables. We felt rushed. It was as if they wanted to turn the lights out right at 9pm. This took away from the experience. This policy needs to change. Not Good! read more

The restaurant wasn't crowded at all since its relatively expensive compared to the diner next door. But this restaurant did not disappoint. The staff was welcoming and we seated quickly. I have younger kids, 4 and 6. I really appreciate it when the restaurant make accommodations for young kids by providing coloring sheets and crayons, definitely helps them pass the time faster since they can grow restless waiting for the food to come out. The food here was good and I would definitely come back here if I were in the area. read more

Very lovely dinner. Our server was engaging and connected with us, was very sensitive about our party's gluten free sensitivity. The restaurant is very classy, perfect for a date night or even a large group the food was outstanding, personally- one of the best pork chops I have ever had, so tender and juicy. The banana pepper sauce is a great accompaniment. The wine list was slim, but I enjoyed my Italian glass. There are a lot of good options in Mystic, but I was impressed with this one, I would happily return. read more

Great Italian place in Mystic right off I-95! We would definitely come back here again, food was delicious and service was great. Portions are very large, so if the dish you want is available as a side, that's a great option for smaller portions but the same delicious food. Meatball bruschetta 7.5/10 Cacio e pepe 7/10 Penne alla vodka 8/10 - our favorite!! Service 8/10 Ambiance 7.5/10 read more

Waiter Cory. Make reservations, they get busy quickly. Prompt greeting, comfortable seating. The restaurant can easily handle large groups and private parties. The decor is a bit romantic; some spots give a little more privacy. Antique tin ceilings with classic chandeliers. Circular bar, set aside from the main dining room. There is alfresco seating. The menu is Italian American style. Excellent food prep and presentation. I had the pappardelle bolognese - perfect. The noodles tasted freshly made and cooked al dente, the meat sauce thick and perfectly seasoned. Initially, the portion looked like I could finish it. It's really a lot more than it looks, two people could share it and both would walk away satisfied. My companion had the Seafood Fra Diavolo. Every ingredient was cooked perfectly. No rubbery calamari, chewy shrimp, over or undercooked pasta. Possibly the best one we've ever had in any Italian American restaurant in the United States . Next time I'm near Mystic, I will be dining there again! read more

My friend and I grabbed take out from Andiamo on a Saturday night. We ordered a couple items to pick up for take out and it was ready in only 20 minutes. We got and shared the SHRIMP SCAMPI and RIGATONI CORSI. The SHRIMP SCAMPI portion was a bit smaller but flavor was tasty and the shrimp was well cooked. The main issue was that it was so greasy. After I finished the item, there was a whole layer of grease on the bottom of the box. The RIGATONI CORSI portion though was huge! Flavor was great and the noodles were perfectly cooked. All in all, a great dinner option! read more

As always, a warm welcome, great service, and delicious food with crazy large portions! I went with a friend to have a relaxing dinner and catch up on life. We decided we both wanted Italian food so we headed over to Mystic to one of my favorites. We started with two Aperol Spritz from the happy hour menu at $8 each. They were a perfect light refreshment after a few very hot and humid days. We seriously debated the burrata salad,but I already had my mind made up on the chicken parm and knowing it's huge and delicious, I decided to pass. I am gluten free celiac, and our server (Angela) was great in communicating the precautions the kitchen took to ensure that my meal was safe and also the caveats that it is not a gluten free kitchen. I asked for my gf pasta to be cooked al dente and it was perfect! The chicken parm is coated in gf breadcrumbs and is crisped to perfection. My friend ordered the same but with regular pasta. She was amazed at how good the cutlet was. We both chose the vodka sauce over the regular marinara and it was soooo good. I am never big on a lot of sauce, but wanted a bit more for my chicken, especially knowing I would be reheating my leftovers. Delicious meal, excellent service and leftovers I couldn't wait to eat the next day. read more

Many cars in lot at 3 on a Monday. Greeted warmly and server was excellent. Food was ok. Ordered a crispy chicken salad...four small chicken bites on plenty of lettuce, tomatoes and pickled onions. Chicken was not crispy; drenched in hot honey which was not hot. Salad was edible just different and not to my liking. Pasta bolognese was decent. read more

Risotto with Italian sausage was amazing Was visiting from California and I will definitely be back

If I could give Andiamo six stars I would. My sister and I are visiting Mystic for the weekend and this has been the best food we've had here so far. We came on a Saturday night around 8 and it was pretty busy, but they seated us 2 right away. The bar is beautiful and the decor is classy and clean. Our waitress, Paige, came over quickly and she was so sweet! She took our drink order right away and offered us some bread. The bread and butter they provide is hard to stop eating because it is so good, my lord. I ordered a drink (Hugh's ??) with prosecco, gin, lemon, and elderflower - I enjoyed it, a little tart but it was yummy. For food, I got the shrimp scampi. This was some of the best I've had, and I order this plate everywhere. It was so flavorful, the shrimp were cooked perfectly, and it was buttery but not too heavy. Divine. My sister ordered spaghetti and meatballs, but without any cheese on top (she has a weird aversion, don't ask lol) and the plate did come out - looking delicious tbh - with cheese. She asked if they could remake it and I was surprised to find no one batted an eye. They brought a new dish out within ~7 minutes, steaming and fresh, and my sister loved it. I think what stood out to me, other than the relaxed vibe and amazing food, was how kind the staff were. We got good impressions from every single staff member we interacted with, which is sort of rare these days. I would go out of my way to come here again!! read more

I had to make a reservation, we lucked out we were able to get in. Our first time here. I was looking for a lobster, unbelievable that I couldn't find any. I like the ambience it is lively, everyone is having a good time. Our server is very sweet. But what I saw on the menu brought me here, besides it was recommended. I order a margarita as my drink. And I already had in mind what I was ordering seafood al Diablo. It was perfect. The pasta was perfectly cooked the seafood was perfect everything was great. Definitely would come again and recommend it read more

I had a great experience here back in September for my birthday dinner. It is so beautifully decorated inside I had no idea it was a chain!

Oh my word! After driving 500 miles I pulled into this place looking to wind down for the last hour of my drive - what a find! Polenta cubes in hot honey - Brilliant and delicious!

Ordered takeout from Andiamo last night. Felt completely ripped off! The Love salad has changed. The dressing is different, thick and gloopy. It was $19. And an entrée order of adult penne with butter was $12 and the container was not even half filled. When I went to pick it up, there was an employee at the takeout counter. I gave them our last name and he turned around and ran away. A minute later, another employee walked up and asked if I'd been helped. I gave our last name again. She handed me the bag and said is this the right order? I should've known when there there's only ONE bag at the takeout, the quality has gone downhill. I am a local. I will never return here again. For $70, I we got a disappointing salad, a tiny portion of plain pasta and to be fair, very good Arancini. read more

Andiamo - That's a full size adult penne portion size. (!!??) - Bars Near Me - Mystic, Connecticut

1. Takes reservations 2. Across from Old Mystic Village (easy access on and off the highway) 3. Upscale interior design. Very Modern Italian Bistro style. High top and low top tables. A beautiful large bar. 4. Hughie's Love Salad (you have to get beyond the name) is a large salad. Enough to serve 4/5 people to kick off a meal. Plenty of salami and cheese! Heavy handed with the dressing (I like that.) But...the dressing was too much oil and missing as much flavor as I want salad to have. My husband loved this salad! 5. The meatballs. They are good, not great. The sauce was ok. The ricotta was tasty and made the meatballs even better. 6. The chicken parm fell flat. Lacked flavor. Does it need Garlic? or Italian seasoning? Also, I enjoy my chicken parm to have some crisp to it. This did not. Overall Andiamo has a great location and is a super nice environment. It's overpriced in my opinion for what they are pumping out. I would suggest sticking to drinks and apps here. read more

Very nice restaurant and the food is great! I've tried the alfredo, chicken parmesan, spaghetti and meatballs, pasta with vodka sauce, cacio e pepe, ceaser salad and several of the cocktails and they've all been great. The bombolini dessert is phenomenal. Service is usually very good as well. Very nice spot right across from mystic village. read more

Service here was great and there was plenty of seating! We walked in around 5:30 and were quickly seated. The rigatoni bolognese was great but didn't have a lot of meat so it wasn't my favorite I've ever had. Pricing was pretty good and the bread was SOOO yummy! It came with garlic herb butter which was delish. It's close to Olde Mystic Village :) read more

Very warm and cozy place with a real old Italian family feel but also super classy vibe! The service was top notch very nice and attentive but not pushy. The food was legit some of the best Italian in CT and we are quite picky. The arancini, meatballs, Caesar, mussels, pork chop, rigatoni, chicken parm- all sooo good but we had no room left for dessert! Check it out you won't regret it! And make a reservation on their website because it does get busy! read more

Absolutely delicious and a must-go every time we are in the area!! I always get the Vodka Pasta and it never fails in flavor and quality. The rich sauce is served with perfectly cooked penne noodles and crisp pancetta pieces. The portion is usually enough for two meals or just one if I'm really hungry! Inside, the interior is updated yet cozy with warm lighting, soft Italian music, and a comfortable seating layout. Each time we've gone, the service has been nothing short of excellent. When we have had people in our party who have dietary restrictions such as no dairy, the servers are kind and quick to ensure that the meal is exactly as requested. We also love the chicken Parmesan, any of the pizzas, and of course, the complementary bread with olive oil. Parking can be fairly limited but there is also ample parking in a diner lot nearby. read more

I finally got an opportunity to try them. They have been opened over a year and all I hear is great things. I came in for dinner on a Monday and it was surprisingly busy for a Monday. We were seated quickly; since there were plenty of empty spaces. Service was great. We tried the Baked Rigatoni al forno and it was delicious. Packed with flavors and plenty of meat. We also tried Seafood Fra Diablo. I will say it was flavorful and had plenty of seafood but only wished it was spicy. This was mild spicy and it's probably done like that on purpose for those that don't like too much spicy. And sauce was a bit watery as I like it thicker. However the flavors were there. I was happy and almost finished it. The place looks amazing. They did a great job with decor. Be mindful it was a bit loud but I don't mind it. They have about 24 seats around the gorgeous bar. I love the open space around it. They also have plenty of seating outside. I will definitely be back. read more

We came here during USCGA family weekend. We had a large party of 11 representing two cadet families. We sat on the outside patio and it was a great location for conversation and a meal. The service was excellent and everyone enjoyed a variety of dishes from the menu. I had the slightly unique but very good bolognese. We will definitely return while staying in the Mystic area. read more

The absolute WORST cheese pizza we have ever eaten. It had virtually no cheese on it and strings of strange green unidentified things on it. The worst!!!! I've had better cheap frozen pizza read more

This feels like a solid 4*. It was an appropriate amount of food for the price. The food was pretty good. The chicken piccatta did have a LOT of sauce though, so maybe ask for a bit less sauce? The butter for the complimentary bread was very good! Service was quick and friendly, and we got a seat without a reservation. They did ask us if we had a reservation though, so might be good to call ahead and get one. The pizza was a great deal, and was enough to feed 1 person for sure. read more

Came here for the wife's birthday. Such an odd location because we used to go to Friendly's here. It's nice that my teenage son can get a pizza while we get a nice bowl of pasta. The mushroom side was a must. Everyone enjoyed their entrees, the chicken Alfredo was very rich and creamy. The bolognese was meaty and flavorful but adding the mushrooms made it better for sure. Atmosphere was nothing special it's like sort of elegant but totally casual. Will go back for sure. read more

I was very excited to try Andiamo as it is under the same ownership as Jealous Monk and Taquerio, two of my favorites. Inside the restaurant is beautiful, the wallpaper, bar and decor are lovely and feel very homey. We started off the night with cocktails and mussels. Unfortunately, the espresso martini was broken rather than frothy when ordered with Baileys but without Baileys was much better. We ordered the mussels with the white sauce and were disappointed when our mussels came out and were sandy. I have never ordered steamed mussels and had them be sandy and grainy so this was a first. We had to send them back and our waitress was very kind and understanding. We then got the calamari which was average. As for the pasta dishes, we ordered the chicken piccata and the penne alla vodka (gluten free). The penne alla vodka was fantastic, the pancetta was great and it was overall a great dish. Many restaurants in the area advertise homemade gluten free pasta and the Andiamo does not, although it was still great. The chicken piccata was good as well. The sauce was very oily but great flavor otherwise. The portions were large as well. The staff was great the whole night. read more

The most basic Caesar salad ever. Mot even fresh parm cost $21 with chicken added. There were 4 tiny pieces of chicken.... The Bombiloni was good though. At least that was worth the money. read more

I rarely leave a review on a single visit or single item, but this one is an exception. Got back to the hotel and ordered a ricotta, meatball and sausage pizza. Also, ordered their bread and olive oil dip. Pro's- The herbed bread was very nice and the herbed olive oil was a bit heavy but also nice. Cons- The pizza. I can honestly say it was the worst pizza I have ever had. It was well backed and it was incredibly salty. Salty beyond edible. It was hard to distinguish between the sausage and meatball by taste. Neither were very pleasant. The ricotta was seasoned and also salty by itself. My wife and I each made it through 1/2 a slice before tossing the entire thing away. Just plain horrible. I truly hope it was a one off. read more

The cacio e pepe is one of the best I've ever had--the addition of butter makes a noticeable difference. Traditionally, it doesn't include butter - so I've read - but it enhances the richness of the dish. The broccoli rabe is flavorful, though slightly overcooked. The ambiance is great, especially for a Wednesday night, and the service is both attentive and fast. read more

Phenomenal Italian food, amazing service, gorgeous interior. A must stop if you're in Mystic!

Andiamo is a beautiful restaurant in Mystic, CT. It was our first time visiting. A recommendation from our uncle who loves their food. Our waitress was very kind and friendly. She gave us good recommendations and her personal input on each items we picked. She made sure to check on us every 5-10 minutes. Over all customer service was exceptional. We started with the Arancini & Garlic Cheese Bread with the marinara dipping sauce. The Arancini was delicious as for the marinara sauce it was very bland we had to add salt and chili flakes. Otherwise our main entree was their famous Chicken Parmesan Served With Spaghetti Marinara & Chicken Parmesan Served With Penne for my husband. We loved it -- very tasty!! read more
