Fantastic experience at Andiamo In Banca! Best Italian cuisine with a nostalgic flair! I ordered the calamari Fritter deep fried calamari served with spicy tomato sauce, Linguine with clams linguine pasta with fresh manila clams in a light spicy garlic white wine sauce and House cured swordfish served with caper dressing and for the final cuisine grilled baby rack of lamb, topped with garlic rosemary and balsamic vinaigrette. Now that's Amore! Romantic atmosphere and good selection of wine and dessert. Highly recommend visiting! Buono appetit!????????????

Food is consistent and so is the service. The place can get slightly crowded at times affecting the service quality. But we'll priced and authentically prepared

Here is our experience with this restaurant on Valentine’s Day (absolutely ruined).Firstly, after taking our order, we were served bread and brussel sprouts to start. Assuming these were free (as bread usually is) and the brussel sprouts (which we didn’t order) came shortly after it without the waiter saying anything, we dug in as we waited for our main dishes.We ended up waiting for our order (only two entrees of mid spaghetti and penne) for almost an hour when the couple next to us were served before us even though they were seated after us. The couple beside us was also given bread and brussel sprouts, adding to our assumption that the restaurant gives it for free as customers wait. Not to mention the fact that we didn’t get a single water refill that whole hour and had to get up to find a waiter to ask for more water.We eventually got our food, finished it, and ordered dessert. We ordered a molten lava cake, which tasted like the microwave cakes from the grocery store and had absolutely ZERO chocolate lava in it, enforcing our assumption that it was grocery store bought. The entire thing was simply cake.After we finished, we get our receipt and notice we’ve been charged for the brussel sprouts. Confused, we bring this up with the waiter and he explains that our brussel sprouts were actually meant to be the couple’s next to us, and because of the mistake, they comped that couple’s brussel sprouts. When asked if they could take the charge off of our bill, they replied with “no, you already ate it.”In conclusion, don’t come here if you want to wait for an hour+, get the wrong food and be forced to pay for it, have to actively search for a waiter to get water, and eat microwaved store bought desserts.

It was our first time going here. We didn't know what to expect. However, we were pleasantly surprised. They serve warm delicious sour dough bread with a olive oil with a spicy kick to it. The appetizers were delicious and served rapidly. We tried the calamari, mussels, brushetta and Caesar salad. They had a few specials that weren't on the menu. The chicken Marsala was Delicious! We also tried the chicken piccata and New York Steak, which were also very good. The only thing is, I wish you could have option to do pasta as a side, on their entree's instead of mashed potatoes. The creme brulee was wonderful! I had never tried it with an orange zest in it. It was wonderful, as was the lava cake & spumoni. I highly recommend this restaurant. I will have to go back and try their pasta. I also loved that they didn't rush us.

Andiamo in Banca has been our go-to for years, and the food is always great. However, the service was not great on our last visit. I left a comment for management on the particular issue, and they never responded. Not that interested in returning now.

We celebrated my boyfriend's birthday at Andiamo with our fiends. Everyone was pleasantly surprised. The bread, appetizers and food were all delicious. The servers were very attentive to our needs. I loved that the tables are spaced out. So people are not sitting right next to someone. This place is a hidden gem! I just found it by chance, because of other people's reviews. We will definitely be back to try other menu choices. The only thing is, I wish you could opt for pasta as a side instead of mashed potatoes. But overall, we thoroughly enjoy it!

We shared the Diavola Pizza and the mixed green salad. Both were excellent and more than we could finish. The leftover pizza was delicious the next day. Prices were quite reasonable for both items. We loved the interior design of the place, it was most entertaining to look at while awaiting our food. We'll definitely be back.

The food was fantastic and the service was great. We were taken care of at all times while in the restaurant. Food, really was very tasty and the presentation was done very well. Quiet little bar to wait for someone and a friendly staff. I will definitely be back to try something new on the menu. Thank you.

A few of us were all set to order pizza and when it came time to order we were informed that there was no pizza because of a broken oven or something. It would've been nice to have been told this when we were seated and handed the menus. We had to make last minute choices very quickly. Employees were friendly but seemed to have too many customers to attend to. This was the first time I had gone for dinner. Usually I go at lunch and I've had no problem with the menu or the service.
