| - My husband and I have been here many times and drive over 40 minutes just to eat and shop here for some delicious Italian items. I've never had an issue with something tasting delicious .....one problem I do have is the pricing is high. Ok, we could and have dealt with that ( and have) to enjoy getting delicious burratta, prosciutto, etc.... The bigger problem is the rude attitude you get in this establishment. Every time we visit we not only eat, but purchase 80-100$ in food to take home (which doesn't get you much) and the staff acts like you are burdening them to slice meat or cheese, scoop burratta, or box a pizza. We have tried different tactics like calling ahead to order so as not to "bother" them during a busier time, or coming when the doors first open so it's not a busy time......I have never felt like I needed to apologize to a business owner or their staff for trying to spend money at their establishment before!!!!! And you know what??? Bad on us for continuing to do it for the past several years....3 or 4 times each year. No more!!!! My husband is Italian and loves to cook and eat and use products that remind him of his father's restaurant (out of state) and his nonna's cooking. Let me tell you, my husband's family came straight from Italy in the 50's and 60's and he is first generation born in the US. His father runs his restaurant like you are a guest in his own home. Warm, friendly and very appreciative of his customers. I am not the kind of person who has to be treated extra special to make an experience good, but Andreoli's always makes me feel like I've added to their already bad day when I've been there. Don't worry guys, it won't happen again.
