Ostrería del Mercado Adriano Reviews
Absolutely scrumptious and fantastic service. Best food we’ve had in a while!
Owner and server Yasmine were awesome as was the food. In particular the Cod with tomato, polenta, spinach, olives and capers was to die for!!!
This is a great find in PB. The food, the service and the atmosphere are impeccable. Our server V was very pleasant. The place was packed but we still were treated well and our food was hot and delicious.
The food was delicious and the staff was friendly and attentive. For appetizers, we had the burrata that was on special and the carpaccio which my mom described as "the best I've had in a very long time." We shared the pasta as an entree and it was so good! It came in a crispy "cheese nest" and with more burrata on top.
To celebrate our 400 day friend streak on Duolingo (yes, somewhat random reason) my friend and I came here with an RSVP at 6pm on a Sunday evening. While many tables were occupied, we were about to select where we wanted to sit (inside or outside) with plenty of options. It was a bit chilly and even though they had heat lamps we opted for a table inside. After reviewing the menu and hearing the specials, I opted for our server’s recommendation of rigatoni al brasato while my friend got the most popular dish, pappardelle bolognese. We gave each other a sample of our dishes. I like the pasta consistency for both dishes. His was a bit softer but still had a good bite. My rigatoni had a lovely chew. I added parm and pepper flakes to my pasta and it provided a bit more depth to the flavor. I enjoyed it quite a bit We decided to share a dessert, the Pope’s pillow. It has layers of custard, marscarpone and berries. It was a good dessert and perfect for sharing. Our server and the staff were attentive and friendly. We had a great experience.
I came to Enoteca Adriano on a chilly January evening with friends and we sat on the heated patio. It was lovely & so cozy! The food was great, we all ordered different pastas and loved each one. The restaurant was busy on a Saturday night and our waitress seemed a little overwhelmed and it took a while to get our food, but everything was still fabulous!
I come into town every year for 2 weeks and eat here at least 3 or 4 times during my stay. The Chilean sea bass is the best piece of fish I’ve ever had. Highly recommend from a New Yorker who loves Italian and pasta. You can’t have better staff serve you and the hostesses are very accommodating (not too bad to look at either😉)
We ate here last week with a group of 8, and it was awesome. We've been coming here for *years* when we're in PB (twice/year usually), but I don't think I've ever written a review. The food is ALWAYS outstanding - flavorful, fresh, and perfectly cooked. The service is ALWAYS perfection - warm, welcoming, and attentive but not overbearing. The atmosphere - fun, music playing without being too loud, and the movie projected on the outside wall is so much fun. Wine list is excellent, and you can do corkage as well. If you like Italian food and good service... this is the place!
Incredible service by especially the hostess tonight and our waiter was amazing! The food is impeccable, fresh flavors and everything hits your taste buds beautifully. I tried the Primitivo red because I’m not much of a dry wine girlie but it was amazing and I would definitely finish a bottle. 10/10 all around! We loved it!
Made reservations for a group of 8 and the service was great and attentive! The food was also delicious Italian and space was lively with a comforting vibe. I got the Seabass Special and it was cooked perfectly with a squid ink pasta in a luscious sauce. Desserts are also wonderful here too! My favorite was the Wild Berry Medley Torte that was not too sweet and well-balanced. Overall, would love to come back for more great pasta!
Came here with my family based on the reviews online. The whole package exceeded expectations. I’ve eaten in many Italian restaurants all over the world including many in Italy. The food was so authentic, the service was perfect. Barbara was so helpful and welcoming. Eat here if you are looking for the perfect Italian experience. Highly recommended.
Consistently great food and service across multiple visits. Comfortable. Highly recommend. Love the table bread and generous wine pours. - Toscana Soup 5/5, delicious, balanced - Rigatoni Porcini 5/5, earthy - Rigatoni Brasato 5/5, tender meat, relatively light - Spaghetti and Clams 5/5, flavorful, quality - Pappardelle Bolognese 3.5/5, meaty sauce, one dimensional - Orecchiette 4/5, rustic, solid dish
This was my first time dining at Enoteca Adriano. I find the restaurant options in pacific beach to be rather lack luster so I wasn’t sure how this would be. Thankfully I didn’t need to worry. We were sat right away for our reservation and the service was very friendly and timely. To start, we had the burrata special which had grilled eggplant, cherry tomatoes, capers and arugula drizzled with a roasted red pepper sauce. So good! For main courses we had the spaghetti carbonara and the gnocchi. Both were very tasty, you can’t go wrong with a well done carbonara. The gnocchi were very light and fluffy. Overall, this was a perfect date night spot!
I’m so glad I finally tried this place! It’s super cute, cozy, and the food is delicious! It’s a great date night spot. It was easy to make reservations. We came to celebrate a friends birthday and the servers were very accommodating and gave great recommendations. Food review: Literally everything that we tried was fantastic! Complimentary bread/olive oil: (5/5) We had to get a few plates because we could not stop eating it. So good, perfect texture, and had melted cheese inside. Bruschetta: (5/5) It was super fresh and so flavorful. We devoured this super quick and should’ve ordered 2 or 3 for the table. Burrata: (5/5) This was SO good. Super fresh, the balsamic was delicious and good portion. Orecchiette pasta: (10/5) This was my all time favorite dish. It was embarrassing how quickly I devoured my bowl of pasta. The noodles were so fresh and the sauce… was bomb! Lasagna: (4.5/5) Super big portion, very tasty! Definitely would order again. Desserts: (3.5/5) These were pretty tasty, but I could’ve gone without desserts here.
It’s definitely a local vibes — and we loved it. Non-pretentious & down to good local tasting. It was a seamless process to make reservation. The hostess was super friendly & seated right the way. We enjoyed our meals and time here. All the dishes we ordered were good as we expected them, accordingly to other reviews on goggle & yelp. We plan on coming back next here & sharing the good vibes for this place.
