Andy’s On the Bay Menu

Sorry, We are updating this restaurant menu details.

  • Ryan S.

    Some friends and I meet at Andy's every Friday morning and it feels like home. The food is always amazing and the whole crew there is like family. I recommend Andy's to at least a few people a week. If you are a human and if you like really good food then you should go to Andy's.

    Andy's On the Bay is a small family owned Spanish restaurant located in the business district of Douglas Rd in Oldsmar. They are only open for breakfast and lunch so you'll have to go early. Their daily routine of pulled pork, various types of rice and beans, and Cuban sandwiches are always available. They also mix up various specials throughout the week like chicken, fried fish, ox tail, chicken cordon bleu and anything else Andy feels like throwing together that day. I have been frequenting Andy's for nearly 20 years and their food has remained consistently good over the years. Andy, his wife and family are very nice people and always make an effort to greet and interact with all of his guests. Not long ago Andy's wife mentioned she remembered the first day my co-workers and I came into their restaurant. I thought she was just being nice until she described the day in detail (mind you that this was many many years ago). I was surely impressed, and yes her story was accurate. The restaurant is not fancy and could stand some remodeling. The food is not the absolute best you'll find in the world, but it's very good in my opinion. The parking is difficult especially if you have a larger vehicle. So why 4 stars? The overall graciousness and family feeling you get from Andy and the crew make this restaurant top notch in my book. My only pet peeve is they don't serve Coke... A change there just might warrant 5 stars!

    This well-hidden local favorite is one of the many reasons why the Tampa area is known for great Cuban food. The pork here is delicious and the special rice, whatever it is, works perfectly with the flavorful black beans. The large Cuban sandwiches are crunchy, tasty, and beyond filling. Come hungry or you are in deep trouble! Everything is ridiculously inexpensive. As a matter of fact, I feel special and slightly guilty every time I eat here because the money paid, is far less than the value delivered! I love the smell of pork and black beans in the early afternoon.

    My buddy Davin at work just brought me an Andy's Cuban. Ive heard all about it before, but now I get the fuss. It was a great Tampa Cuban with the strategically placed pickle and everything. Can't wait to stop by driving this place and head on in. I hope the rest of the menu is this good.

    This hole in the wall doesn't always feel like the cleanest & friendliest place but it does offer some mighty tasty pork & rice. They are a small business so they aren't always accommodating when it comes to paying with a card. I recommend bringing cash if possible because your bill likely be very small and they get charged per transaction.

    A hidden place behind some warehouses ... Small inside but the food is excellent. Dont judge it's food by the outlooks, the cooks are really good here. I just love these hole in a wall places because they make it more 'authentic'. They have simple stuff and open until 2 pm.. So go early. They have breakfast food and lunch .. Sometimes specials. I really liked their sweet potatoes and chicken and the black bean rice! Never had black bean rice this good before. And the small plantains were delicious too. MMm definitely a place to go back for lunch!

    Another one of those places "you leave stuffed." You get more than what you pay for at Andy's -- around $7 for a bowl of succulent seasoned pork, a heaping plate of mouth-watering beans and rice, and a basket of fresh cuban bread. And, as others have mentioned, a killer homemade salsa that sets it apart from anyone else. Go there!

    Busy lunch was a good sign. Delicious Cuban with pulled pork. Friendly down home atmosphere.

    I've been grubbing down here since 2006, and I've never had a bad experience whether I've eaten there, or got an order to go. The Cuban sammiches are my favorite menu item, but the ropa vieja and roast pork are close seconds. The yellow rice has good flavor, and the workers are always friendly. It's definitely the best Spanish food in the Westchase/Oldsmar area. Just a not if you've never been, this is a breakfast and lunch establishment. They close early during the week, and are not open on weekends. Local businesses and offices in Oldsmar are their bread and butter.

    I absolutely love Andy's for lunch. This is some really great food. The roasted pork is so tasty. I must say the roasted pork special is the only thing I ever get here because I love it that much. I usually get it with the special rice and black beans but I'll get a side of garbanzo beans with it every now and then too on the days I can't decide between the two. I put their special sauce over everything when they hand me my plate or to go box. Their special sauce is ridiculous! They sell it if they have extra. I highly suggest if you like spicy things to grab a bottle of this sauce. I always keep one in the fridge. I love to out in on anything and everything when I want a spicy kick. Seriously. I even out it on my fried eggs in the morning. It's that good. You should definitely give Andy's a try if you are in the mood for some really good food.

    Andy's is CLOSED. Went by there today for some Cuban sandwiches and there are no signs of life and there is a for lease sign on the door.

    Ate here with hubby for lunch. The pork was a bit salty but very tasty and moist. The rice and beans seemed to be a fan favorite. There were people coming in and ordering just the rice and beans (no meat). Hubby had the large cuban, and it was LARGE. He lovingly ate it all and some rice and beans. We paid with cash like a previous Yelper advised but saw no change in price. The refills were a necessity since the cups were bit small, but its only $1 so its not that big of an issue. We will go back and try the chicken and plantines next time. I wish they had weekend hours, so we could have their breakfast.

    Just started working in oldsmar about 2 months ago and decided to try Andy's... Best decision I have ever made! Since finding this place I have gone back EVERY single day. The pork is probably the best roast pork you will ever eat in your life. The rice and beans and everything else are also done perfectly. Andy's is the perfect example of what a family run restaurant should be. Andy is there everyday cooking the food and you can tell he genuinely enjoys serving his customers. I have yet to have a less than 5star experience here. This has easily become my favorite restaurant in florida and I will continue to come back as long as it's here. It can get pretty packed during lunch, but trust me when I say it is worth the wait.

    I'm giving them five stars because I've never been disappointed in their food. It's a hole in the wall and far from fancy, but who cares. The food is really delish, and the family running the place are really nice and polite. Today I walked in crossing my fingers that they were serving their spicy goat, but I didn't luck out. Boo hoo hoo! It's fine because I really didn't have a problem substituting for the stewed beef, I never struck that one before so I was happy with the choice. Meat was of course really tender like always... The red beans so flavorful and I even love the rice there, it's always so moist. They even throw in a couple pieces of Cuban bread and butter to go with it. At the register they have fresh cut onions to add and the best hot sauce ever .. $8 and I'm out the door with an awesome ginormous meal. I love Andy's! If you're planning to go, just know they are only opened till 2 and closed on Sat and Sun. I believe.

    Small, hidden little family owned Cuban restaurant in Oldsmar. Stopped here for lunch one afternoon and wasn't disappointed. The menu is very simple and the prices are cheap. The food is fresh and pretty good. I went with the regular sized cuban sandwich and it filled me up pretty well. Surprised they don't offer free drink refills when you're paying $1.60 for a regular drink, but oh well.

    This place is great! They don't advertise but have a line out the door everyday for lunch. That has to tell you something! Pulled pork, rice and beans, and plantains are great! I've even used them for catering several times!

    OMG. So friggin' good! Get a large portion of the roast pork with rice and beans and you'll eat it for 3 days. Incredible flavor! Only negative is that the service is somewhat slow. They draw a huge lunchtime crowd for the size of the place and could probably turn tables over faster if the service kicked it up a notch. They also need to have FRESH limes every day.

    Andy's has the finest roasted pork you will ever eat, but the real gem here is the spicy sauce they offer to dress your meal as you slide your tray down to the register. The sauce is incredible on anything, it's super spicy with the perfect flavor to compliment and protein.

    Authentic and tasty Spanish food that is even appreciated by this pasty white guy. I've been eating here sporadically for years, and can always count on consistently tasty food. Sure, the decor is dated, and it can get plenty crowded at lunchtime, but my blinders go on the second that I put a forkful of chicken or pulled pork into my mouth. Pure bliss. One star removed for the one thing that bugs me - no soda refills. I drink a lot during my meals, and to have to get up and pay again two or three times is annoying. Charge me a little more and let me have free (which really, to me, means "no hassle procurement") refills.

    Perfect place for lunch! Family owned, home cooked food, best Cuban place around! I really enjoy coming to this place. Feel like your at home. The black beans and rice are amazing and the Cubans are perfect! Good for a quick lunch.

    The food here is outstanding, and they really feed you here. It's set up like a cafeteria with the food being served in front of you so you know exactly what your getting. The small is huge! Very authentic but what do I know I'm Irish/Italian from NY. The owners are very polite and the two women behind the counter are awesome. I have been here at lunch time on Fridays with a friend the line is litterly out the door. I only wish my girlfriend liked Spanish food so she can eat something this good. After writing this I need to eat here soon and get the roasted pork. I also have to add their Cuban Sandwiches are made with actual shaved Pork not the thin sliced you find at other places. If you are looking for an Applebee's type of place, go to Applebee's it' ll be more seats for me to pick but if you want no nonsense then this is the place.

    right around the corner from work and one of the first meals I had since I got to Tampa and in the short stay that I will have in Florida, I will have more visits to this place. Its like having a home cooked meal in my grandparents house quite a few years back. The portions are very very generous and there is no way you will leave hungry from this place. Very satisfying. The taste was delicious, I had the chicken and with rice and black beans, for the next trip I will have the pork because I wanted both but I was not gonna be able to enjoy that much food. Go if you like eating great tasting food.
