Chicken parmigiana
Gloria L.

I got the chicken parmigiana with rigatoni. It usually comes with spaghetti noodles, but I highly recommend getting it with the rigatoni. It's a cute cafe with pretty close quarters, but very nice ambiance. The menu has pretty select items, they know what they're good at and keep their menu concise. They do sandwiches, but we came for dinner, but I'd like to come back to try them.

the inside of a coffee shop - The image shows the interior of a cafe with a counter area that includes a large decorative bowl, a beverage refrigerator stocked with drinks, and a menu board hanging above the counter. The ceiling has a grid pattern with recessed lighting, and the floor is dark wood. The cafe has a clean, organized appearance with various supplies and equipment visible near the counter.

Awesome salads and sandwiches! We had a Caesar with grilled chicken, more than large enough for one so we shared it. I had an Italian sandwich, good with Italian meats and added mayo and Italian dressing. Lots of parking but the lots are also under construction so be aware, it might be a short walk.

LaRosa's is such a warm and welcoming place. The food is absolutely delicious and the staff is very friendly. I ordered their specialty, the LaRosa's pasta with vodka sauce, and I would honestly go back just for that, it was that good. The portions are huge and satisfying, definitely worth it. On top of that, the drinks were amazing too. Without a doubt, this is a spectacular spot I'd highly recommend.

Drunken Chicken Parm sandwich - The image features a chicken pot pie with a golden-brown biscuit topping, placed in a rectangular metal baking dish. The filling appears creamy with visible chunks of chicken and vegetables, and melted cheese is seen around the edges of the dish. The biscuit topping is smooth and slightly shiny, indicating it has been baked to a golden finish.

I'm so glad we finally got around to trying this place! I always love the *idea* of a chicken parm sandwich, but since I'm not a big red sauce fan I usually end up getting something else. Imagine my delight at seeing the Drunken Chicken Parm on their menu: Chicken parm made with vodka sauce! This was so good, and I finally felt I got to have the chicken parm experience. Our other item was the Caprese sandwich. They have this as a salad, too, so it was a hard choice but we were very happy with our sandwich. Very fresh and a relatively healthy pick. Service was quick - I placed an order with the very friendly staff and stepped next door for about 10 minutes to take care of other business. The food was ready just a few minutes after I got back despite quite a few customers. The shop is cute and has both outdoor and sidewalk tables. These looked comfortable, but it was take-out for us. Parking was easy in a nearby street space with municipal lots very nearby.

The food is delicious. It is pricy but you are paying for what you're getting. Good size servings, delicious and fresh food, in a great environment. My favorite is the godfather!

LaRosa's is the kinda place where you can choose your own adventure: order at the register and dine in, pick up/ take out, catering, etc. We couldn't decide so we split 2 sandwiches: drunken parm (chicken Parmesan with cheese and VODKA sauce on a brioche bun) and the angry Sicilian (Italian sandwich on thick toasted sandwich bread with fresh mozzarella). Although both were phenomenal, the drunken parm is way more rich and filling- so splitting THIS sandwich was the right move. We skipped their To Go espresso martinis but we'll be back the next time we're in town!

LaRosa's is a very cute and easy place to get lunch at. The food was outstanding and staff were extremely nice. I will have to come back for coffee and breakfast. Prices were good and the vibes were high. Thank you very much!

Caesar salad
Allison L.

Great place for some takeout. Or a somewhat fancy night out. It's part store and restaurant which is nice to have that option. Got some pasta and a salad and it hit the spot for a light dinner. They were generous with the thick bread slices too. Would recommend.

The angry Sicilian. - A person holds a partially eaten sandwich featuring sliced turkey, lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise on white bread. The sandwich is in a takeout container, with a second sandwich and some lettuce visible inside the container. The background includes a car interior with shoes, a water bottle, and other miscellaneous items.

The sandwich was good and well put together. The flowers of the meat, cheese, veggies and balsamic go so well together. I wish the peppers were hotter but the roasted red peppers were delicious. The bread had a good toast on it but was still soft so the roof of my mouth isn't completely destroyed. Definitely make sure you have plenty of napkins. I would come back for this sangy, and probably try some others.

For the price the food was just good and we had to wait over 40 minutes for food on a Monday night.

WOW!!! This chicken is no joke - It's some of the best chicken I've ever had...and I've eaten in…read morethe South - where they know chicken. We ordered the chicken sandwich and split it. (but got the sauce and cole slaw on the side - which I would recommend personally). The slaw was not good imo. I don't know if this batch was off, but a good slaw should be vinegar based...little bit of a sweet flavor to it - this tasted off...but since it was on the side, I just tried a few bites and then tossed it. The sauce is good-I think that is Thousand Island/Russian dressing-based and I like it-but since I brought it home we just put mayo on it and that is amazing! I think I saw smoky mayo as an option and we hope to eat in restaurant sometime and I will try it then and update our review. We also got a large chicken finger and split that. Two of us didn't need to eat all the chicken since we split the sandwich and weren't starving...I thought they gave us a fair amount of chicken...hope they don't change that. I think right now they are at a fair price point-not cheap but in line with what you would expect given the cost of food these days. Anyway, the chicken fingers are amazing. The best way I could describe it is if KFC original chicken and a fancier fried chicken place had a baby...that is the taste-refined but not so refined that people who like fast food won't like it. It's so tender it must be brined for awhile. 5-stars. Can't wait to try it for dinner with mashed and a biscuit. TLDR - Excellent chicken. Good Nan sauce. Not sure why honey mustard not an option for sauces for fingers. Pass on the slaw.

Solid eatery with one of my favorite ever sandwiches. They have a great selection of unique and…read moretasty sandwiches and sides, but their pesto chicken sandwich with artichoke is out of this world delicious. Highly recommend Nan's kitchen.

I have always been a huge fan of Crack'd- I love their breakfast burritos and hash browns so very…read moremuch. However, the team of people that work there are truly the most amazing people. When we were in the process of losing our soul mate of a dog to lung cancer they would go above and beyond for our random orders and would always try to bring a smile to our face when we would pick it up. She wouldn't eat so we would call & ask for plain unseasoned grilled chicken or just bacon or whatever it was they always helped us out. Her last meal was bacon on the beach (her favorite place). Thank you for the amazing service.

Ya know, I once navigated to this place on accident before? Yeah. Still not sure what my GPS was…read moredoing that day. Because I normally go to the one in Salem. But on this day, I thought to myself, "Self, I really hate making that busy-as-hell left turn on South Broadway in Salem. What if we took a journey to the Andover location instead?" And so it was. I enter this cozy little restaurant carefully tucked against a slightly submerged parking garage. Although, I probably shouldn't say "little" because the interior was noticeably larger than its Salem counterpart. It's also noisy AF in there when it gets busier than a New York subway. So naturally, I ordered my usual to-go (a Country Classic with an extra egg and hashbrowns for those who don't know). Only it wasn't *quite* ready on time. Which, to be fair, is kind of a minor point. Thing is, they have to shout your name whenever your order is finally ready. This in and of itself can prove to be quite the challenge when bellowing atop the already roaring crowd of customers impeding the otherwise accessible pickup shelves. I'll do my best to describe the interior since I wasn't really able to take pictures. But try to imagine an L-shaped dining area with the longest part hosting a row of countertop seats facing the windows. Beyond that sits a rather modest dining area with a few more tables. Next to that sits the gender neutral restrooms. It's strange and cramp, particularly when the place is packed tighter than a sardine can. Sufficed to say, I'm not much a fan of the interior design here. Being the partial recluse that I am, I offer the following best practice for a place so riotous: mobile order that shiz, cuh! Seriously. I had to put in my noise cancelling earbuds to appease my misophonia. The good news is....the food is still awesome. The eggs? Creamier than crème fraîche. Taters? Eh, I don't why...but these seemed way more seasoned the very first time I tried them. Fortunately, they actually pair rather well with their refined version of ketchup. The bacon? Well...let's just say I wish it were served well done. Not sure if I'm able to request that. But I'll scope out my options next time and get back to you all. That's it though. Nice place, WAY easier to get to than its Salem counterpart, but a bit too cramp and noisy for my taste which means....I'll likely ever dine in here. It's all good though, because I'm still giving Crack'd Kitchen & Coffee in Andover 4 Country Classics with all the fixins out of 5.
