    An absolutely perfect evening for an intimate date night. If you are looking for that elegant upper eastside Italian spot to enjoy a wonderful meal with your significant other, no need to look any further. From the gracious staff to exceptional service and an absolutely wonderful meal, we could not have asked for anything more. Impeccable decor.We have found our new quaint spot. Can’t wait to go back, and already have recommended our friends. Grazie Adria!

    Delicious dinner, especially the ravioli and cheese cake I had! I love that they had some options for non alcoholic drinks, I was able to get a mock tail! Beautiful decor and the ambiance was lovely, I will be returning here with more friends to enjoy more of their menu.

    The room looks great, nice chandeliers, upscale interior; Service is fine, nothing to complain about; Relatively quiet early evening when we arrived. Food is great. The shrimp were carefully cooked and tasted fresh with a delicate flavor. Same for the swordfish. Lamb chops, despite being slightly overcooked, tasted good and came with fine mashed potatoes and a nicely reduced sauce. Prices are acceptable for the quality of the food and the nice ambiance. It is not a very lively place, not a place where you would go to party. But for a tranquil and enjoyable meal, free from the clamor of loud crowds, this is an excellent choice.

    I have been to Adria several times and it continues to be a delight. The food is great, the service is great, and the restaurant is sophisticated with great lighting and comfortable seating. I particularly like the meatballs and the prosciutto and mozzarella as appetizers, both exquisite. I’ve had the lamb, the halibut, and the paccheri with lobster and all are outstanding. Will definitely be going back again and again.
