We had a great evening at Enoteca Adriano for New Years Eve! The new menu was perfect, the food was excellent and the staff, as always was the best! This is the place for great Italian food and hospitality! The buratta cheese wrapped in prosciutto with arugula and fig jam was the perfect appetizer. Lobster ravioli and the rigatoni with short rib ragu were perfectly cooked and tasted amazing!

We have been here before and the food is generally very good. This visit the waiter seemed inattentive. We wanted to order a bottle of wine, appetizers, salads, and entrees. The waiter just kept asking us to order. He didn’t seem to understand ordering in courses. I had the Spaghetti Romano. It comes in a cheese baked crust. Mine was burned so badly I could not eat it. The waiter never came by to check on us, so I just ate the pasta and left the crust. We will return and hope for a better experience next time.
