Spaghetti the Works
Adrienne C.

I have dined in and picked up for to go. The service is always great and the resturaunt is very clean. I typically order the Spaghetti The Works and I remove the sausage. It used to come with 2 meatballs but now it is one. One of my favorite places for good Italian food and pasta! Highly recommend if you love pasta! The pizza is great too!

I dine frequently at the OG location of Adriatic located in Jersey Village. This restaurant is larger and nicer instead with plenty of parking spaces and located right next to Hwy 249. Adriatic's best deal is for lunch with their special lunch menu that offers many dinner entrees at reduced prices. I ordered the chicken cacciatore entree for the lunch price of $11. First to arrive is a basket of fresh warm bread rolls and then a complimentary salad only free at lunch. The big bowl of chicken cacciatore arrived a little later. This was a very good tasting and filling meal. You don't leave Adriatic Cafe hungry. The food tasted the same here as the Jersey Village location which is a compliment. Table service was fast here too. By the way dinner is only a little more expensive.

House Bread

This restaurant came highly recommended by several people who are from this area. Let me start by saying that if you're from an area with limited cultural diversity, mediocre can seem good. The restaurant was clean and decorated like it was trying real hard to look like a stereotypical Italian restaurant. The framed pictures on the wall can all be found at HomeGoods or At Home. The staff were very friendly and presentable. My wife and I wanted to like this place, but we looked at the pictures of the food on yelp, well, we were hoping for the best, but we weren't surprised with what we received. My wife had ordered the Chicken Marsala and I ordered a Calzone. The chicken seemed processed and very dry, and the Marsala was nonexistent. My wife's Chicken Marsala is infinitely better. My Calzone was stuffed with pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, mozzarella, and ricotta cheese. The dough was very oily, and the ingredients stuffed in the calzone tasted like store-bought corporate low grade ingredients. The house bread for which everybody raved about tastes like Pillsbury dusted with garlic salt and MSG. I really don't like writing less than positive reviews, but I have to be honest. People work too hard for their money to waste it on food they could make better at home. To those of you who enjoy this restaurant by all means keep supporting it. To those of you new to the area and familiar with what real Italian food should taste like, save yourself the visit. A word of advice to all who utilize YELP. If you're looking at food pictures from Italian restaurants and the pasta is dry and the sauce is poured over the top, they're not authentic and it's probably not good. Pasta should always be tossed with the sauce..

Great dinner and service on a Friday night. There's never a wait at this location. It's pretty quiet and a little dim. My husband enjoys the beef lasagna. My favorite is the Alex special because it's a little spicy and I love mushrooms.

Our first time here on the recommendation of a coworker and im so greatful for it. Food was delicious and customer service was superb . Nice clean restaurant with a nice ambiance. The first Italian restaurant I've found that has a beef lasagna (I dont eat pork) and it was delicious. Want to go back and try their tortellini.

Garlic Bread

If this place weren't so close I might not be as fond, but it is. The food is basic and delicious. Also, huge portions, even on the lunch menu. Huge garlic rolls with every meal. We always get calamari or mozzarella sticks to start. Both are tasty. I always get the eggplant parmigiana and my husband has been favoring the works. We're both always happy with the food. It's in a strip center, and they've done their best to make it atmospheric, and they've done an alright job. It's cute. The service lately has really missed the mark. We're pretty patient customers, but the staff are teenagers that will finish gossiping before bringing you your lukewarm food. They also try to clear plates before you're done. Management seems nonexistent.

Spaghetti the Works..
Aurelia A.

This place came highly recommended so we decided to give it a try. Upon arrival I was immediately seated, waiter came about 5 mins later. We settled on the mozzarella sticks, fried zucchini, and bruschetta cheese bread for appetizers. The bruschetta bread was very good, the mozzarella sticks average and the zucchini was okay batter was falling off so you basically were eating the batter and then the zucchini which was a little mushy..We then ordered the beef lasagna(really good) and the everything spaghetti which was amazing minus the meatballs they were ground just a little too much and lacked seasoning but the meat sauce was really good. The service was superb they make sure your not sitting there with empty dishes.. Overall it was good food and service and we will be back.

Fresh bread

We eat here a minimum of once a month, for the last few years. Service has always been hit or miss but the food was good. Today we met Nay! Our server was outstanding! She was kind, sweet and a hell of a server. She anticipated our needs and was just the best! They need many more of her! The food was great! Spaghetti, eggplant parm, calamari,and were even able to try the lemon chello cake! All delicious. They did add a new spice blend I believe to the calamari that was very salty, but would get it again .

My Dasher asked them for my food and they refused.

Do NOT spend your money here. These people are incredibly unprofessional. They will take your money, mess up your order, and then gaslight you and act like you're the problem. This is the second time I've had issues with this restaurant. Yesterday, my order had chicken added to it--something I never requested. I called the restaurant, and they blamed DoorDash. DoorDash told me it was a glitch. Fine, I let it go and moved on. Today, it got worse. I called to place another order and had to speak with the same manager who was extremely rude, nasty, and difficult to communicate with. (Not trying to be rude--just being honest.) She wasn't understanding anything I was asking, and instead of helping me, she kept trying to argue. I asked to speak to someone else, and eventually she transferred me to a male employee. I explained to him that I never got my refund from yesterday and that I just wanted to make sure everything was correct this time. I told him--not DoorDash--that I've had tons of issues with my orders over the past few months, ordering 2-3 times a day while I prepare for a move. I'm not the issue--the lack of quality and consistency is. The male employee apologized and promised to include a free drink with my order to make up for the inconvenience. Well, that never happened either. I was charged for the drink, and when my Dasher arrived, they flat out refused to give them my lobster pasta and my drink. So now, I've paid for items I never received. I called again to speak with the manager. She first offered me a gift card (that I'd have to pick up), then put me on hold for nearly 30 minutes--only to take the offer back. Meanwhile, I could hear staff in the background talking trash about me, calling me a liar, and claiming that I "always complain to get free food." That is a flat-out lie, and worse, it was the same person who told me earlier that my drink would be free and that my order would be correct. DoorDash never told them anything--I'm the one who explained the situation to him. Now he's twisting my words and talking about me behind my back? Unacceptable. This restaurant is spiteful, unprofessional, and dishonest. They stole my money, refused to give my Dasher the full order, and then gossiped about me while I was still on the phone. DoorDash won't refund me either, so I had to go through my bank. If you choose to eat here, pray your order is right, because if it's not--they won't fix it, they won't take accountability, and they'll talk about you behind your back. Do not eat here. Here's a video of the staff talking about me while I was on the line after they refused to give my Dasher the food that I paid for despite and proper to me that they won't do this again. https://www.loom.com/share/d58cf00f40c544a48545ca25780d3423?sid=5837361b-8415-4895-8b8a-1120af5e7b04

They are so great! The food is delicious and great quality. We came on a Monday and kids eat free. The portions are more than generous. The service is fantastic. Will be coming back. Oh and their happy hour menu is good too

Yummy garlic bread.
Elisabeth B.

Came for lunch with my sister and had a good experience! The restaurant is nice, with outdoor seating and the interior is a bit dim. Service was great and prompt, our food came out quickly. The garlic bread was fresh, hot, and delicious. For our entrees my sister ordered the chicken alfredo and I had the lasagna. Both dishes were good, the only thing is I tasted a bit too much of wine in my lasagna sauce. My sister loved the garlic in her alfredo and the richness of the sauce. For dessert we opted for the creme brûlée and it was okay, not my favorite. Overall, I definitely enjoyed the food and will return to try more dishes.

Ambiance: Small, casual Italian eatery in a strip center off 45 near Top Golf. We were originally seated right by the hostess stand, which felt less than ideal and a bit intrusive/crowded for a date night. Moved to the bar and had a much better experience. There is a bar and also a mix of booths/tables inside. I would say this is a pretty casual spot decor & vibe wise. Does make for both a date night or family dinner. The food was solid - not necessarily something I would crave or frequently order. However, their menu pricing was fair, the service was quick, and the restaurant + bar area felt clean. Large portions and delicious garlic bread. You definitely get your money's worth portion wise and the wine by the bottle pricing is quite affordable. Parking onsite & close to Top Golf makes it a great weekend dining spot in the Spring Area for many occasions or a quick bite. They have quite a few gluten free options so I will be recommending this spot to my GF friends!

All these years later and it's still my favorite pizza place. I hadn't been in quite a while before this past weekend, so I was a little nervous that it had changed and maybe wouldn't be as good anymore. Much to my pleasant surprise, everything was exactly as I remembered it! I wish I had gotten the name of the woman who took our order. She was so kind & genuinely seemed to enjoy interacting with customers. I didn't see my usual favorite (Mr. Potato Head) on the menu so I assumed they discontinued it. However, we asked after we ordered and she said it's still a menu item! So I'll have to make sure to go back and get it the next time. My husband and I split a chicken Caesar salad and a medium pizza, though we could've easily gone down to a small size. They really don't cheat you out of toppings & that's one thing I'll always appreciate about this restaurant! I'm eager to bring it back into my local restaurant lunch rotation.
