Lovely place to take a friend and have a nice meal.fine dineing.yes.quiet..yes you can hear your partner talk.the steak was as a steak should be scotch fillet cooked perfect .. we will be back.
Really enjoyed my meal here, we had starters, mains, desserts, drinks and coffees and final bill for all of this for three people was around $150. Food was simple but delicious, very much enjoyed the fettuccine. Highly recommend.
The service here is excellent. The waitresses were very friendly and the food was very tasty, i especially liked the dessert.
I will definitely return.
My partner and I tried Adriana's for the first time this week, and we were very impressed.
Service was warm, friendly and very helpful - we were informed we 'could sit as long as we liked' after finishing our mains and were deciding on desserts.
Food - promptly served and beautifully presented. Portion size was excellent and was great value for money. Delicious.
Cannot rate this place highly enough, we'll definitely be back!
We hadn't been to Adriana's for a few years and I was a bit reluctant as some of the reviews on this site are not great. However we were very pleased with our meal. Bruschetta was divine, awesome steak cooked perfectly & whole baby chicken also got good reviews. Waitress was professional & polite. The place was busy with a great atmosphere. We will definitely be returning!
Love the rustic atmosphere which really is what Italian is all about. Service was real good considering they only had one waitress on, she did very well... My partner had the baby chicken which he immediately regretted as was just a roast chicken, however he did read the menu. I had the ravioli in blue cheese sauce with walnuts... my gosh was absolutely amazing!!!!! the best sauce I have ever tried, was a real good size dish so partner got to share with me... deserts were beautiful and delicious... would go back in a heart beat, love the atmosphere and the food.. A++
Very sweet little Italian place said it was an authentic Italian restaurant in the Entertainment Book but surprised no meatballs???
Started with Bruschetta OMG just divine! It was with garlic, fresh spinach, bacon & feta with olive oil..a little messy to eat but simply yum! Main meal for me a boring Lasagna but my friend had the salmon pasta & was very happy!
Shared a Tiramisu which was melt in your mouth delicious! BYO with $5 corkage fee!
Service was very professional & friendly!
Went here for a birthday dinner with 15+ people, was impressed with service/timing of meals considering there was so many of us. Staff were friendly and food was delicious. The majority of the table was overly impressed with their meals.
Romantic ambience with yummy pasta.
Reader beware... if Ian is as obnoxious in person, as he is in writing then I don't think that I am the only person that would be tempted to spit in his food.
I found Adriana's to be a lovely experience, from the moment I walked in the door the service was great, we had a very attentive waitress, the food was delicious and considering that we had two steak mains, two starters and a bottle of wine, I did not find $83 to be over priced at all. I truly enjoyed my evening there and it is definitely somewhere I would go again and I recommend it highly to others.
The nicest Italian restaurant we have tried in NZ so far!
Generous quantities, savory food, correct prices.
The steak with the creamy mushroom sauce was very well cooked and very tasty.
The tiramisu was alright.
This place is a bit of Italian magic and somewhere we won't forget anytime soon. We asked the staff beforehand if they would be involved with my partner and I's gender reveal for our first child on the way and to say they exceeded our expectations is an understatement. They reserved us a table where we had a lot of privacy, the food was fantastic and honestly the genuine and friendly customer service was such a highlight. Thank you so much from us and our baby boy arriving next year for a memory we won't forget. What a special place.
Had a date night at Adriana’s. It was always busy in the past and we unluckily got turned away a couple times prior so we made a booking for this occasion (although not necessarily this time round..so..hard to say). We’ve ordered the Fettuccine Della Nonna and Filetto Al Funghi. Love the pasta! Great recommendation by the staff. Service was 5 stars. Ambience could do with an upgrade.
If I could give 6 stars for this restaurant, I would. Everything was perfect, from the time we arrived until we left. The staff are awesome, helpful and polite. The food was to die for. Starting with the garlic bread which was smothered in garlic butter just like how garlic bread should be. The steak and veggies just melted in my mouth. Super yum. Thanks so much for a great evening.
Absolutely delicious. Love love love. Hubby said his meal was a bit small for a guy.
A really good Italian restaurant in Hamilton. It's a low key operation but the food is great. Meals are sized well (especially the main sized pastas) with plenty of fresh ingredients and excellently made sauces.
The Ravioli Gorgonzola is balanced well, and the Tiramisu is nothing short of amazing. Wait staff were friendly and quick with the service.
Highly recommended if you're looking for Italian cuisine in Hamilton.
Had Vegan Lasagne and it was amazing. Bit of a size difference between mine and the meat option but mine was definitely big enough. Side salad was delicious too. Everyone else enjoyed their meals and recommend the spinach and blue cheese ravioli.
We searched for a pasta restaurant and turned out it was more. It’s a very traditional and authentic Italian restaurant that we couldn’t find in Auckland. We had ravioli and farfalle, both were super good.
The lady who I guess is the owner offered us complimentary garlic bread when we were waiting for our pasta. The service was excellent, will definitely go again when we go to Hamilton next time. We enjoyed our dinner so much, oh and don’t forget to try the dessert.
Totally agreed with all the other 5-star reviews. We've twice ordered Adriana's Farfalle al Salmone and spaghetti marinara, and twice loved it! Very friendly staff who offer excellent service. Remember to book in advance as they're often full on weekends.
What a great meal, bad the meatballs in creamy sauce. Desert apple compost was divine.
