Andrea’s Eatery has opened its doors in Gurgaon, bringing its signature philosophy, “World of Flavors on a Plate” to one of India’s most vibrant dining destinations. Located in Ambience Mall, the new outpost reflects founder Andrea Pauro’s lifelong love for travel and diverse cuisines, offering guests a culinary journey that spans continents.

The space itself is designed to feel calm, modern, and inviting, a place where people can come together, share a meal, and connect over global flavours. It mirrors the cosmopolitan pulse of Gurgaon, giving diners a chance to experience the world without leaving the city.

The menu is inspired by Andrea’s own travels across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East, featuring dishes that tell stories through flavour and technique. From the Andrea’s House Salad and San Sebastian Cheesecake to the Gambas Al Ajillo — sizzling garlic prawns with a Spanish soul each dish celebrates authenticity and craft. The Pollo Pizzaiolo brings the warmth of Italian comfort food, while the Kafta Lamb Burger blends Middle Eastern spices into a flavour-packed bite. Andrea’s signature Krapow, inspired by Bangkok’s street-side magic, and Yalla Habibi, full of Middle Eastern zest, are also highlights on the menu.

Catering to all palates, Andrea’s Eatery ensures inclusivity through a range of vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. Dishes like Mala Chili Tofu bring a spicy kick without compromising on flavour, while the restaurant’s gluten-free pizzas and pastas are crafted with the same passion and precision as any classic recipe. The newly introduced Protein Salad and Super Green Salad celebrate freshness and balance, proving that wholesome food can be vibrant and satisfying.

The interiors complement the menu perfectly. With warm lighting, earthy tones, and relaxed seating across 80 indoor seats, Andrea’s Eatery offers a versatile space for every occasion  from family gatherings and business lunches to casual dinners. Open daily from 12 noon to 11 PM, the restaurant welcomes guests to dine in or enjoy the Andrea’s experience at home through Zomato and Swiggy.

For Andrea Pauro, the heart of the brand lies not just in its food but in its values. “I couldn’t be more excited to join Gurgaon's dining scene,” says Mr. Andrea Pauro. “We’re bringing the flavours and experiences that have made our guests smile for two decades, and I can’t wait for the city to try them. There’s a rare satisfaction that comes from pure hedonism, one that enriches life and makes it worth living. From dishes crafted with care to a space full of warmth and life, every detail is meant to make your visit special.”

Built on kindness, respect, and joy, Andrea’s Eatery continues to create spaces that go beyond dining, where community, comfort, and connection come alive over every shared meal
