Enjoy the tastes of Peru without leaving the Pacific Northwest at Andina. The restaurant is rooted in family. Inspired by his family’s ties to Peru, Peter Platt opened Andina in 2003. The spirit of Andina springs from the family’s history which began when Peter’s parents, John and Doris, first met in Peru in the late 1960s.

Best Dining Experience On Recent Portland Trip
Im not too sure I can add anything which others havent already said about Andina, however, this was an incredible dining experience!! My daughter and I just checked into our hotel and this was just a quick 10 minute walk. It was a Tuesday night and we didnt have a reservation, however, we were warmly welcomed and promptly seated in the dining area by the bar. Really cool vibe and lighting inside and was lively, however, not overly loud so you could easily have a conversation. Our waitress was extremely friendly and helpful explaining the menu as we had some questions. The first item we ordered was off the drink menu...TÚPAC TOPOTOPO which is a freeland forest gin, housemade gooseberry syrup, rosemary, lillet blanc, verjus blanc. Absolutely delicious and refreshing balanced flavor and on the sweeter side. Next up was PAPA A LA HUANCAINA which are crispy ozette fingerlings, huancaina sauce, olives, chives, cured egg yolk. Ideal to share and so much flavor! Before our main course arrived and since we had such a great experience with the first cocktail we also tried the SACSAYHUAMÁN which is habanero vodka, passion fruit, cane sugar, sugar rim. While we thoroughly enjoyed the first drink this was easily our favorite. Not too spicy but the spice is definitely present, however, its nicely balanced out with a pleasant sweet and sour element. Highly recommend! Finally our main course was the MILANESA DE CERDO CON TALLARINES which is a pork cutlet, dried tomatoes, botijia olives, ricotta huancaina peruvian pesto, linguine. As with everything else this has such great balance of flavor and nice little pops of brininess from the olives. We should have stopped here, however, the dessert menu beckoned and we couldnt ignore the decadent Peruvian chocolate mousse. First, its a huge portion which could easily feed three, but this dessert is seriously amazing! Lots of rich chocolate flavor, coffee brownie and a layer of tartness which helps cut through the richness. I cant recommend this restaurant enough. It deserves all its accolades and I hope I can make another visit before we head back home.

Waited almost an hour for our one main course. We ordered the trout. Got steelhead. It was way overcooked. This place is way over rated. It was bad.

Arguably the best dining experience in Portland
It has been several years since we last dined at this Pearl District gem and we cannot say enough good things about our experience. Staff: top notch; friendly, attentive,professional, and knowledgeable. Wine list: varied and beautiful with a wide range of offerings at all price points. The sommelier was humble and spot on with his opinions and descriptions. We started with rose cava, followed by a 2018 Numanthia (just right!), and lastly a 20 year tawny port with dessert. We had 4 tapas, all were quite perfect, the duck ceviche being unique and exceptional. The dessert (Pot de crème chocolate) was also quite exceptional and so rich we brought most of it home. When we mentioned that some years past, we had met Doris, the owner and founder (now retired) we were delighted to be visited by Victor, her son, who carried on the tradition of familial like atmosphere that sets this establishment apart. Most surprising, however, was the email we received the next day thanking us for our patronage. To me, this is the epitome of class and business savvy. We will be back.

July 2, 2025Betty65SeattleWASadly disappointed..
Sadly disappointed! Cocktail was fine but food dry and tough! We have a beef that was tough and sauce not great.. and a Halibut on rice that was Very poor.. Chicken looked dry (another guest ordered that) Desert of cookies I could have gotten better in Safeway.. This was our third trip and I do not think we will risk the $$$$ to go again.
