Being of Italian ancestry, and having grown up on home made pastas, ""gravies"" and traditional Italian fare, and also being a frequenter of the best RI has to offer, Pietro and Christen's Cafe Andiamo is outstanding and authentic. The food is magnificent. The atmosphere is cozy and warm. The owners treat everyone like family and the staff is superb. \r
\r
People must realize, however, that this is not a lounge. Being a small BYOB, patrons must be considerate of the time of both the owners and other patrons. Cafe Andiamo is certainly not a place to ""camp out"" inconsiderately for extended hours while others are waiting their turn for dinner. \r

Finally, ""Chunkadee"", Cafe Andiamo is certainly no place for patrons who engage in disrespectful name-calling. Your personal attacks are quite ironic (yet nonetheless hilarious!) in the context of your ""Miss Manners"" assertions. Shame on you.
