Adriatico Ristorante

Amazing. As an Italian I can say this is top quality, best Italian in Nz!
My new fav place, will be back again.
Recommend the pizza
Calamari exceptional, bellissimo

1/ Always a favourite, never disappoints. Busy lil’ place just before Xmas.

2/ must be our first visit for 2023, cosy atmosphere, great food.

3/ return visit after owners holiday, very steady service for a Friday night, a very nice dinner for two.

What a great restaurant! Adriatico has become our regular date night spot. The food is fantastic as well as the service. Definitely give the gnocchi special and hazelnut chicken a try, something different and very tasty. Hope the coffee machine will be fixed soon as we'd love to give it a try!

This was one of the best restaurant experiences I've had in New Zealand so far. Highly recommended to everyone who wants excellent food and service in a great atmosphere with a warm welcome

Popped in for a last minute Christmas Eve dinner. This is a hidden gem in Henderson! Very friendly and accomodating staff and delicious food!

I’ve eaten at many Italian restaurants. This one competes well with La Rosa in Glen Eden.

My first time coming and we were received by a girl who was on her first day of the job. She did splendidly. The staff were friendly. The place was clean. The service was quick.

I ordered the “Alexander”. Medium rare steak in mushroom sauce. Brilliant. My only complaint would be the price. But with the cost of ingredients honestly it’s fine.

If you want a cheaper experience at the cost of taste quality reduction go to La Porchetta.
If you’re feeling a little fancy and want something delicious - head here!

Dined here tonight 1st time since covid food is just awesome service sweet as garlic bread yummy as 4 the main course ohh my goodness so good and we think price better than good value it was good to b back

My favorite italian restaurant in auckland by far. The portion sizes are a little small, and the items are on the expensive side - but it's totally worth it as all of their food is consistently amazing.

Food was nice & fresh. Veges serve that came with meal very small so suggest you order their side veges for a bloke or food lover.
Good variety. Good service.

Awesome place, feels like you’ve left Henderson when your in there. Service is great food is great and and prices for a quality Italian restaurant are exceptional. Thank your Adriatico for your great work, you give that little strip in Henderson some life.

Really want to try this place, but the last two times we've been it's been closed

THE BEST Italian restaurant.
We come here regularly, whether is busy or quiet night, the service, the food, the whole experience never lack. My favorite, Steak? Pepperoni is to die for. Best garlic bread, I can freely say, in NZ. 5 star for everything, you guys are amazing.

First time I have been to this restaurant.
As soon as you walk in the atmosphere hits you.
Locals eating and ordering their favorites, laughing and enjoying themselves. This restaurant is the real deal, if you want authentic Italian this is the place.
My new local for sure.
Oh and the waitress are so lovely.
You won’t be disappointed
Thanks team!

Adriatico Ristorante is a West Auckland treasure, and an absolute must for anyone who appreciates cuisine that is created from the heart and served with a smile. We've enjoyed their hospitality for over 10 years and the quality and service have remained seven star strong. Congrats on 30 years in business, all the more challenging in these times.

We always love the food here, be it takeaway or dining in. We feel it is the best Italian food in West Auckland.
However, this time was not quite as good as previously.
Could not have a coffee because the machine was broken and they did not have one of the ingredients for the pasta dish we ordered so were offered an alternative. It was OK, but not as nice as usual.
Lasagne was perfect, as was the Tiramusu.
Hope the coffee machine is operating next time we visit.

P. S. I appreciate that coffee machines do break down, but surely an alternative could be offered. Even an ordinary filter coffee would suffice, especially if the machine is waiting for a part from overseas.

Food was outstanding - very quick service - just a shame you have police protection to and from your car

Been twice absolutely love this restaurant
Food is authentic tasty delicious, great staff
If you love italian go here you will love it.

Ordered a standard size >$20 pizza to share between 4 people, thinking it would be average sized. It barely took up the size of the plate it was on and was cut into bite sized quarters, very disappointing.

Service was good however.

Food was OK. Service was OK.
Interesting we got Garlic bread in the basket but no bread plates.
Had 2 mains 2 drinks 1 Garlic Bread $88.82 for 2 ppl for dinner.

At another Italian Restaurant the next day we got 4 Garlic Breads 4 Mains 6 drinks Excellent Food and Excellent service $110.
Say no more.

The first pics was our dinner from Adriatico
The Lasagna and Pizza's were just an example of 2/4 dishes we got for Lunch from the other Italian restaurant.

Really delish authentic Italian food at Adriatico last night! We ordered entrees, mains and desserts and all 4 guests loved every dish. Will definitely be back!
