Andora

It’s been a long time since I was here. Had family dinner on Sunday and it was not that crowded.
Our server was great and very attentive.
I had the shrimp bisque. I like to think of myself as a bisque pro. But this was not really a bisque. It was way to oily. You had to stir it each time as not to have an entire bite of oil. You could even see the separation of oil and cream. The shrimp were small but ok.
I had the crab cakes which were great but a little on the smaller side. But the mashed potatoes and veggies were delicious. Plus the plate was filled with them helping to fill the plate.
Had a nice plate of Pinot noir which was a house choice.
Also had a brownie dessert which was amazing.
Overall a great dining experience and looking forward to going back.

I visited this place almost on accident after my coworkers and I ventured out for lunch. There was traffic on 28 (surprise surprise) so our boss suggested Andora. A restaurant I haven’t tried? Sign me up! The location is a bit different, as it appears to be in the middle of a neighborhood and if you aren’t looking for it, you may just drive right past it. It looks like a house! They have a beautiful outdoor dining area that I am completely smitten with. It’s quiet, cozy, and has a water feature and fire pit for the evenings!
Their lunch menu has a little bit of everything but I settled on the lobster roll. It was divine! I asked for a side of coleslaw instead of fries, but the coleslaw left a bit to be desired and didn’t have much flavor. I picked a few fries off of my coworker’s plate and good lord are they good! Definitely getting the fries next time!
Service was great and they even fulfilled my coworker’s request for a beet salad, which isn’t on their lunch menu but it IS on their dinner menu. I left here pleased with my meal and overall experience. Prices range from $ 6 (soups) to $ 15 for lunch items that range from salads to sandwiches and a few entrée choices as well!

Great American Cuisine. Haven’t been in a long time but the service is usually a bit delayed sometimes but it really is hit or miss. Summer these guys are completely on their game however. Outside patio is too enjoyable and relaxing! Our waitress and server ‘Maddie was one of the best and most professional I have ever had! Terrific try for a casual Saturday night meal with friends or the lady!

I just held my twins First Holy Communion at Andora Fox Chapel this past Sunday. We were in the «Hunt» Room upstairs. I’m very picky when it comes to entertaining and the staff at Andora nailed it! They went above and beyond my expectations. I went over the night before our event (10:30pm on Saturday night) to set up. Even though they were at the end of their shift, they were extremely courteous and helpful. I received rave reviews of the food, drinks, atmosphere and service. My guests had an amazing time and I am forever grateful for being able to spend time with family and celebrate my children’s special day. I didn’t have to worry about a thing… Andora had it covered!

First time I came was in December for lunch with my significant other and was amazed by the interior. The guy I went to lunch with walked me around, showed me the place and told me the history of the building. The staff was very friendly and even though it was my first time there, they really accommodated to everyone’s needs. They were very willing to take some time and explain the building and I could tell that everyone involved takes great pride in working there. l The fire place seating area was the best and the food was amazing. The price of food is definitely well worth it.

Went for Valentine’s Day. The food and service were fantastic. The server had great suggestions and was well versed in wine pairings. We got the crème brûlée for dessert and it was good but not the best. Would definitely recommend to friends.

We went with high expectations to Andora on Dorseyville road, Pittsburgh last Saturday to celebrate the birthday of my daughter in law and it was a total disappointment. The reception girls need lot of training how to deal nicely with customers. We told them in advance that we are there to celebrate birthday and need a cake after our dinner to celebrate the birthday. We told the same to the waiter also. The dinner was of mediocre quality. The pork ordered by my nephew was unpalatable. The cake we asked for never came. Nobody will believe what the staff said. Only if all of us order deserts, they will give the cake. Everybody was full and some had Diabetes and was not in a mood for deserts. We told them, why don’t you charge for cake and desert and let us celebrate the birthday. Then the manager came down, but by that time everybody’s mood changed and we didn’t get the cake or celebrate cake cutting, thanks to Andora’s hospitality. We will never visit any Andora in future. If anybody is planning to go there to celebrate birthday take your own candle and cake.

I love Italian food but this place was a disappointment. The ambience was charming, great for big groups and the wait staff was very friendly. Unfortunately, the food was not anything extraordinary, and definitely not worth the price. The asparagus salad sounded so delicious on menu but when it arrived it was underwhelming and I couldn’t even taste the lemon honey dressing on it. The main entrees (especially the fish dishes) were under seasoned. Few of their dishes were delicious though, and if you plan on visiting I would suggest the Andorra chicken (probably their best dish), from the appetizers — shrimp in Thai coconut red curry sauce, lobster mac n cheese and the shrimp bisque.

Went there for my birthday and split the calamari which was great. Salads were fantastic and everyone highly enjoyed their meals. We had the veal, pork tenderloin and snapper special and it was expertly prepared. Service was great also. Nice wine selection too. Will definitely go back in the summer to enjoy the outdoor patio.

Went to eat last night for our yearly Christmas dinner. Scallops were terrific but the pork tenderloin was overcooked and dry and the entire entrée was luke warm. Service was awful and waited 15 minutes until we were able to put in a drink order. Its a great place but was not tops last night.

Unfortunately, the food was mediocre. The staff was friendly and accommodating. To start, I had the Zucchini ribbons. They were probably the best part of my meal. Next I had the shrimp bisque. It was salty and average. To be fair, I’m very picky when it comes to soup. My salad was the wedge salad. It had a nice mix of ingredients. My gripe here is that it was very cold and tasted like it had been refrigerated for it bit. My entrée was the gruyère and sherry chicken with Mash. Potatoes and asparagus. It was just ok. I had higher hopes for Andora. The people were nice and the environment was very nice!

I live in the neighborhood so this place is close and I try to go there often. I love the outdoor patio. The food however leaves much to be desired. Last week the seared tuna appetizer was cold in the middle. It is obviously purchased pre-​prepped and frozen. This week I tried the calamari. It tasted like it was also taken from the freezer and put into the deep fryer. They came out luke warm in the middle. The Chile sauce was something straight out the bottle that they probably purchased atrRestaurant Depot or from Sysco Foods. The people next to me sent their scallops back to the kitchen because they too were cold.
I really want to like this place but the consistently sub standard food makes it impossible. I like the physical space but I think may be limited to the salads.

We had a. delightful experience. The food was. exceptional,.especially the shrimp spring. rolls. The staff was exceptionally. courteous to our family. They even found a «parking space» for my mother-in-law’s walker before I could even. ask.

1). Ambiance: 4.5 stars. Located in a historic house, this restaurant is simultaneously ‘cozy’ and bright and elegant. Definitely a place I would feel comfortable having a formal dinner in as well as drinks after work. The outdoor patio isn’t open yet (still too cold), but it looks great and I would definitely want to come.
2). Service: 4 stars. We sat at the bar. The bartender was very attentive and personable. The hostess was accommodating when we came in. No complaints.
3). Food: 2.5 stars. When everyone in the room — including strangers– laughs and comments on the appearance of your food when it comes out, there is a problem. I had the fried eggplant. It was ridiculously huge and ultimately not attractive. It was piled on top of a giant pile of pasta that was overcooked. Didn’t taste good. Not a winner. Much of the food was kind of over large and not presented well.
Overall, a good place for drinks and outdoor seating. Will try the food again in the hopes they work it out.

Delicious, fabulous service, fresh fare and warm ambience. The homemade shrimp rolls are to die for, the salad fresh and tossed with the perfect amount of dressing,

I have eaten there a few times now and usually like what I get. My fiancée loves the place. The best shrimp bisque I’ve ever had! The pasta dishes are small, but my most recent meal was the surf and turf special. It was good and very reasonably priced. I’ll go back.

Third visit to Andorra last Sunday and it was disappointing. The restaurant was not full but the waitress seemed over busy. Seated in a draft. No bread and when the entres arrived they were not hot. Crab cakes were excellent as was the Chicken Andora. Portions were generous. Just a shame they were tepid. May give them one more try.

This was our local go-​to place, until tonight, unfortunately. We brought guests from out of town and one of their dinners — pork — was undercooked and red. The bigger issue is how this was handled by the manager. Twenty minutes after informing our server, the manager found time to stop by. She told us that the pork entrée had been a recurring problem (clearly the issue isn’t the pork) and she offered us free desert. It was as if we were eating at a family buffet instead of a nice restaurant. It was noteworthy that the manager was busy hanging coats and hauling firewood, but didn’t have the time or inclination to take care of customers or deal with real issues at the restaurant. Afterwards, an attempt to tell her that we had recommended Andora to many people and discuss our displeasure was met with a debate. We can’t in good conscience recommend this restaurant any more. Too bad…

We recently had a wedding rehearsal of 30+ people. Andora was wonderful! The food was unique and delicious. The staff was accommodating and provided excellent service. The setting was comfortable for our group and adequately private.
Both the party planning process and well as the meal service itself were very well handled.
We can’t wait to come back for anniversary meals!

SKIP IT! Lousy and extremely overpriced, our meal was over $ 200 for four of us. Steak was cold, crab cakes were a disappointment, service was laughably poor, we even had to send a bottle of wine back. Skip this place, it’s not what cross keys used to be. Only saving grace is that the bar is really cozy, and they’ve created a nice space out back to eat outside. But don’t expect them to light the heaters. Also the music they played was extremely bad (backstreet boys? Really?) Also the bathroom was disgusting, I won’t mention what someone must have done in there ahead of me but it was unusable, just foul.
