What People Are Saying About Andre's Restaurant

In Short – At lunch, a line fills the corridor between the bakery and dining room. Meals are limited to two options daily--traditional Swiss fare such as tender veal bratwurst with buttery noodles or flaky-crusted pies with spinach or chicken. Desserts are included with the price: chocolate-layered tortes with mousse and raspberry, tiny fruit tarts and creamy napoleons. Chocolates imported from the Kansas City location have a case to themselves, including heady milk chocolates and rich truffles.

Excellent, authentic and unique

This is the Denver outpost of the original Andre's in Kansas City. The family has managed to keep it within a few cousins and there are three locations. The KC location is actually much larger and offers more than two selections for lunch per day, but aside from that, it's nice to see the principles being upheld in Denver. The prix-fixe lunch is always a treat, particularly because it includes the tempting dessert tray. Older people tend to flock here and are treated well by the staff. I particularly like it in the winter, when it feels cozy to be inside with a hearty meal, watching the snow coming down...There is also a bakery counter where one can indulge in all kinds of goodies to take home! I do wish that they would emulate the KC location and offer at least one vegetarian menu item per day.
- Pros: Authentic European fare, swift service
- Cons: No alcohol, tend to not have vegetarian selection

Great dessert!

This is a great weekend lunch spot! Lunch includes a drink like coffee or tea or soft drink, a main entree (choice of two), and your pick from the dessert tray. The food portions are not huge but quite filling, and the fare is swiss. The cheese quiche and beet salad were amazing. The line to sit down seemed long but moved very quickly. Rum cake was excellent as well. Plus this place has a general "store" section with a great selection of Swiss chocolate like Lindt. There is a parking lot also, which is convenient. Highly recommend!
- Pros: Dessert, food, parking
- Cons: Service was a bit slow and didn't explain the various food offerings in detail at all

Forget your diet!

Andre's pastries are out-of-this-world! I love their almond pastry, but so far haven't tried anything that isn't amazing. And for the high quality, the prices are quite reasonable. This is definitely THE place to ditch your diet!
- Pros: Their pastries are perfection!
- Cons: Not exactly health food
