Karma in Andover is hands-down one of the best Asian fusion spots around! We stopped in for dinner…read morerecently and left completely impressed. The atmosphere is upscale yet welcoming--modern decor, lively vibe without being overwhelmingly loud The staff was super attentive and friendly from the moment we walked in, making great recommendations. We started with the salt & pepper calamari and some dumplings--both were fresh, perfectly crispy, and packed with flavor. For mains, the fried rice was spot-on (flavorful and not greasy at all), and the torched tuna with truffle butter sauce was absolutely divine--such a creative fusion twist! The sushi options looked incredible too, and everything came out hot and beautifully presented. Portions are generous, and the quality really stands out compared to other places nearby. Drinks were solid as well if you're into cocktails. We'll definitely be back--it's become our go-to for date nights or when we crave something a little special. Highly recommend Karma if you're in the Andover area.

The food and drinks were very good and we were even brought ice cream for some birthday singing!!

The Salmon on Fire was delicious and honorable mention goes to the Dragon Fire roll (sushi rolls are giant).

Surprising combination of bargain basement lunch specials pricing, big portions, respectable…read morequality, and friendly service. Clean, well-kept place. Sweet and Sour Chicken (on the combo): Seven large pieces, very high meat-to-batter ratio, good crispness on some, not so crisp on others, and a mild "blush" take on the sweet and sour sauce. Cherries and pineapples included. Interestingly served on its own plate, separate from the rice and appetizer, and there was enough there that it could pass as a full order at some places. Pork Fried Rice (on the combo, served in its own bowl ): Not listed as one of the options, but they accommodated me, and it came out surprisingly well-- sort of a cross between Yang Chow fried rice and old school pork fried rice. The pork was fresh and tender; the egg prominent. Very enjoyable even though I was hoping for old school style. Egg Roll (on the combo, served on its own plate ): Small, crisp of shell, and crisp and moist inside, with mostly cabbage and pork. Decent seasoning. Duck Sauce: A cross between standard applesauce-based duck sauce and the dreaded orange packets. Perhaps a little too close to the latter. Overall, an impressive spread for a mere $10.95. The 4 stars take value into account.
