Andiamo Detroit Riverfront is a polished Italian restaurant tucked inside the Renaissance Center, offering more than just a meal—it’s a riverside dining experience with sweeping views of the Detroit River and Canada beyond. This spot lends itself well to special occasions, whether it’s a birthday celebration, anniversary dinner, or pre-show meal, thanks to its upscale ambiance layered with warm lighting and elegant décor.

The menu leans into Italian classics with thoughtful touches, like the Gnocchi All'Aldo, a chef Aldo signature, and hearty dishes such as Lasagna and the Pasta Seafood Trio. Seafood options stand out too, including the Frutti Di Mare, a vibrant regional stew brimming with clams, shrimp, and calamari served alongside fresh linguini. For those who enjoy rich desserts, selections like Tiramisu and Seasonal Cheesecake round out the meal with a sweet note.

Service here carries an attentive and personalized touch. Staff members are known for taking the time to tailor wine pairings and even accommodate younger diners’ preferences, which contributes to a relaxed yet refined atmosphere. It’s the kind of place where servers anticipate needs, whether by adjusting a child's salad or crafting a special birthday dessert platter.

Andiamo’s comfortable yet sophisticated vibe pairs well with the smooth background jazz that often plays, setting a tone that is both lively and intimate. The restaurant fits nicely into an evening out in downtown Detroit—perfect for couples, families celebrating milestones, or groups catching a show nearby, such as at the Fox Theatre.

Visiting during dinner hours enhances the experience, especially as the river views catch the evening light. The blend of well-executed Italian fare, attentive service, and scenic locale makes it more than a typical city-center restaurant; it’s a place where the city’s riverfront energy and culinary tradition intersect.

Jenn was absolutely fantastic! Very personable & sincere. She helped my daughter taste a few wines to pair well with her food. She brought a different drink for my son when he didn’t like his cherry coke. She brought a caesar salad in place of the house salad that my little girl ordered when she received it & was disappointed. She decorated a birthday plater with fudge & a desert for my birthday girl. She truly made us feel like family. I hope when you come you get Jenn as your server! The absolute best!

Loved this place! They have got great ambience and the food is delicious. We tried Chef Aldo’s Roman Style Rice Balls, Lamb Chops & Fettuccine Alfredo, and everything was worth trying. The service was extremely great too.

Our first visit to Andiamo was made amazing by Mike H. He was attentive, explained everything amazingly, and did a wonderful job of making us feel welcome. My boyfriend and I were so elated to celebrate our anniversary with Mike H and the team. I can’t wait to return for more delicious food and cocktails

This is Quite a Gem in the Travels that I have found. It was a fine Thursday evening with jazz music in the background. It was quaint with all the nice furniture that shown excellence even in the wait staff Very professional top notch and very attentive like I was in a really nice steakhouse. I did sit at the bar and Julia (I think that’s what I remember) was very friendly and made sure I was taken care of and the Italian food was so delicious as I had the pepper chicken with angel hair pasta in a nice creme sauce. It came with soup. I had dessert to end my meal off with a mocha cheesecake to die for!

We had a group of 12 of us that went in for dinner before a show at the Fox Theatre. It was fairly easy to get reservations of that size which was lovely. Andiamo’s is located inside the Renaissance center.The restaurant is beautifully decorated with the view of Canada across the river. It gives off elegant, high-end restaurant vibes. Frankee and Ahmed were our servers. They did a wonderful job with recommendations. I went in with one flavor in mind and ended up picking one of the specials instead, based on Frankee’s recommendation. Instead of Bolognese lasagna, I got a delicious lobster tail, scallops, shrimp with a side of the best fettuccine Alfredo I’ve ever had in my life. Everything was cooked perfectly with delicious flavors and tenderness as you expect with seafood. I’ve been to a couple other locations and in my opinion, this one was the best so far. Every single person at our table was raving about their food and how nice the place was. Highly recommending this for groups, date, nights, and anything in between.

Reservations was easy to get! From the host ess that greeted me at the entrance to my server Hussien K was amazing! Hussien suggestions were good and though I didn't see what I wanted on the menu he knew immediately what I was talking about. I got the seafood Alfredo pasta it comes with lobster shrimp and scallops! Sooo gooood! The next time I come back in town I will definitely come back. My view from my seat was pretty and the atmosphere was calming just what I needed after a long day at work!

Let's start by saying our server Sarah was an absolute delight made the evening so easy! We had the surf and turf and calamari starter and Cesar salads. Dirty Martinis for drinks! It would be hard to find one thing wrong with this entire dinner even if you were a professional! Second time we have been here 5 stars both times!

Andiamo did not disappoint! I celebrated my birthday here and everything from the ambiance to the flavors was on point. I sat outside on the patio overlooking the Detroit River and…whew. Beautiful views, great weather, and even better food. I can’t remember the exact names of the dishes, but just know that every plate hit! That pasta with the fresh crab and tomatoes? Chef's kiss. The other dish had sausage in a pesto sauce that was straight up good. And don’t even get me started on the birthday dessert. Simple, classy, and delicious! Service was kind and attentive, the food came out hot and flavorful, and the whole experience just felt special. Detroit has gems, and this is one of them. Thank you for making my 35th birthday special.
