Adriana's Restaurant Wine Bar

This restaurant is definitely a favorite for our group, and I'm certain we will be returning regularly from now on!

The menu here is amazing, featuring a diverse selection of traditional Italian dishes. The seafood and meat options are exceptional, and the wine list is quite impressive. The atmosphere and service are top-notch too. If you’re looking for an authentic dining experience, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

Each dish was bursting with incredible flavor! We began with the meatball appetizer, rice balls, and an Italian charcuterie platter. For our main course, we each savored their signature dishes, exchanging delighted glances as we took our first bites, all exclaiming how fantastic it was. We capped off the meal with tiramisu for dessert! If you're looking for an authentic Italian dining experience, Adriana's is the place to go.

First time visiting this highly regarded New Haven eatery. First off- the Server was the most cordial menu- knowledgeable of servers I have experienced. The whole family warmed up to him immediately. Great Job Frank! The portion sizes are ginormous at Adriana's. Love this! I had Gamberi Panceta with fresh sauted spinach. It was good, maybe serve some juice/ butter to re-moisten the tightly pancetta wrapped shrimp. After seeing everyone else's pasta dishes- My fault I should have ordered a diff entree. The Boston Creme Pie was delicious- more like a BC Cake (had a cheesecake textured bottom layer). Was not happy with the squash flowers appetizer- the flowers might as well have been left out because the thick fried batter shells and creamy cheese stuffing overpowered the delicate flowers. Possibly a much lighter batter on these beautiful flowers would be true to these special garden treats? In closing- if you haven't eaten at Adriana's- move it to the top of your list. If you have- go again, and again to explore another one of the vast menu's selections. Bon apetito!

I can't sing the praises of this place enough! Our 1st time dining here we were treated like old friends. We chose to dine outside as the inside was pretty packed. Our waiter, Carlo, made sure that we were comfortable made wonderful suggestions for our dinner. Bread and refreshments were brought out immediately after seating we were served very quickly afterward. Each plate was magnificently portioned and deliciously prepared. One plate of spaghetti meatballs was enough to feed our 3 children we brought home enough to feast on for at least 2days! We also ordered Orecchiette Rapa E Salsiccia orecchiette with broccoli rabe and sausage), Bistecca Di Manzo Alla Griglia marinated grilled rib-eye w/sauteed Vegetables mashed potatoes) a lovely dish of Parpadelle Alastico parpadelle with lobster meat, artichoke hearts, touch of tomatoes in sherry cream sauce). Kids had sprite, hub had a shot of tequila that came highly recommended by Carlo but of course I've forgotten the name, may edit to add in the future lol) I had Cupcake Moscato which was delicious. I'm no drink or food critic but I can't imagine going anywhere else for Italian fare! Now Idk if this has anything to do with the establishment but I can't neglect to mention that when it came time for the bill, Carlo informed us that another patron had paid for our meal including a tip!! We were floored beyond grateful, my husband was even brought to tears. The gentleman who did so left before we could properly thank him. So, whereever you are kind sir, you made our family's night Adriana's made new, lifelong customers!
