In Short – Andiamo walks the line between casual and fine dining. The strip-mall setting implies a laid-back environment, but crisp table linens, well-dressed staff and meal presentation imitate more formal restaurants. The menu doesn't offer expected dishes, but rather entrees like veal scaloppine and prosciutto-wrapped and crabmeat-stuffed shrimp, which exemplify Andiamo's northern Italian focus. The lunch menu, available weekdays only, offers smaller portions and a few items not on the dinner menu.

Not Great
by Ejules00 at Citysearch
I was expecting to be blown away by the meal. I was NOT. The bread before the meal was very tasty and probably the best aspect of meal. I had the Gnocci, ...It was ...well I didn't even eat it. My friend stated her lamb chop was "marginal' at best. Service was good, desserts were tasty also. Atmosphere: there was no atmosphere. For the price tag you would expect the food to be good. We did not find that to be the case.
It almost felt like we were supposed to say it was tasty just because it's so pricey???
We would not reccomend it and will not eat there again. We would rather visit Vinny's for lack of pretense..
- Pros: The company we were with, Dessert
- Cons: Food and Price

Great Italian find!
by sroell at Citysearch
I would never have guessed an amazing Italian restaurant lay hidden in the slighty sketchy strip mall. Once inside, you forget the surroundings however. While not luxurious by any means, the ambience is nice, even quaint. The servers are extremely friendly and well versed with the menu. Service is never rushed and I guess can be perceived as a bit slow. We LOVED the delicious bread they started out with and asked for 2 extra baskets :). The pastas we had were wonderful and the chocolate mousse, cannoli and tiramisu we all shared for dessert were divine. I'm already dreaming about our next visit!
- Pros: Delicious food, friendly service
- Cons: Need to get over the location in a dingy strip mall :)

Best Italian in Austin!
by demoqueen101 at Citysearch
Best Italian in Austin! We have been here many times and are never disappointed. The food is always excellent, the music makes for a very romantic dinner and the service is just as good. We have tried several different items on the menu and have always been very happy with our selections. Who cares that this is in a strip mall? Once you are inside, you don?t even think about the outside. Great romantic Italian dinner!
- Pros: Excellent music, food, service
- Cons: none
