"I have known about Andy 's for a long time and have always wanted to go there, but never took the opportunity. When that same old question came up, What should we have for dinner? , Andy 's somehow popped into my brain. The décor is eclectic and the crowd was reasonable for a Friday night. We made a reservation, but didn 't really need it, but you get the Open Table points. The appetizer menu was plentiful and we went with the standby hummus. The hummus itself was creamy and delicious. The richness of a serving time pour of olive oil was a plus. The clear start is the homemade pita. This a bit thicker than the kind you get in the grocery store and even a bit thicker than what a gyros is usually served on and smaller. I don 't like to fill up on bread served with meals, but this was delicious. I went with lamb kabobs and my wife shawarma. Her chicken was so flavorful and juicy and a big serving. I likewise loved spice on my lamb along with onion wedges. Both dishes were served with a rice which was not simply a side dish , but a main and integral part of the plate as a whole. Being Asian, I fancy myself a rice connoisseur. My favorite is my native Filipino garlic rice, but I 've always been a fan of Indian Basmati rice too. I need to add to my list Lebanese rice with vermicelli. We finished the meal with, you guessed it baklava. This was not the best I have ever tasted, but was certainly not inferior baklava by any means and I 'd eat it again. We really liked the restaurant and hope to add it to our rotation."
