Went there for our anniversary. Cute little restaurant. We didn't have reservations, but the server was very nice and managed to squeeze us in. The place was small, so I definitely would make reservations ahead of time. We had the chicken … More

We were nicely welcomed and then it all went downhill after that. We were served microwaved bread as "warm bread". While we waited forever to order we took a picture of the spiderwebs on the adjacent table. Pasta was overcooked and not … More

We dined her on Saturday. The place was far from busy. We received our drinks after our food, the bread they offered had no flavor, the butter was frozen. The actual pasta was decent but the chicken was like chewing rubber. I would not recommend wasting your money at this place. More

The atmosphere is great! The drinks are solid, the food is okay. Service is good. I ordered the Chicken Marsala and it was tasty. It comes with a side of pasta with either Marinara or Alfredo. I chose the spicy marinara and it was good! We shared an Italian salad that was also solid. More

I feel it is over priced. Nice atmosphere but don't bother getting the Fire Pasta. They basically throw Frank's wing sauce on the noodles and chicken. My sisters tortellini and chicken with pesto was average at best. More

Quaint Italian restaurant in the heart of downtown. Attentive service combined with classy, romantic ambiance make Andante a must visit anytime you're in Chelan. Dripping wax candlesticks, decorative bicycles, and soft lighting add to the charm of this place. Free parking out front.
