The Adriatic Special
Karan S.

Came back after a while and it was just as good. House salad was very refreshing to eat and tried The Adriatic Special pasta. Honestly it was more meat, sauce and other ingredients as opposed to spaghetti, but it tasted really good with a little bit of a spicy kick so no complaints there. The garlic bread was a little more on the tougher side to eat and had lost some of its flavor that I remembered it had. That being said, loved the food and cant wait to be back again.

Fantastic. I came in town for work, was craving some high quality Italian food and wow did I find it. I may have ordered too much food, but it's okay, the bill was very very affordable. This meal would have been double back home on the west coast. Service and ambience is top tier.

I will start off by saying this, I think Italian food is the most overrated food there is and I will never suggest this type of food because it's just not my favorite. However, this place is simply amazing! The customer service, the prices in the food are simply the best! I was blown away, And this is coming for someone who doesn't really even like Italian food. Food: where in Houston Texas can you get lunch for $11? It's homemade and simply amazing? The fresh bread they bring out is probably some of the best bread I've ever had from an Italian restaurant. We got some sort of appetizer that was like mozzarella cheese with a tomato on top and some capers. Very good. The Caesar salad was amazing. The lasagna was simply amazing. I cannot believe they serve such a huge portion for $11 and the best part is it's simply the best! I was blown away by their lasagna. Last we tried the tiramisu cake and it was so good. Everything was good here. Customer service was pretty good too. If I ever crave Italian, which is very rare, maybe once a year if that I'll definitely come back here.

Chicken Marsala
Gina D.

Small restaurant but very friendly staff. Huge portions! They bring you out soft, buttery garlic knots before your meal that are so good! We tried the Chicken Marsala, Chicken Parmesan and the Tortellini. Everything was delicious. For dessert we had the strawberry cheesecake and the Limoncello Cake. Both were heavenly. I just love this little place.

The Alex Special

Flavorful pasta, lovely garlic bread, and good/friendly service. Tried the lunch special with the Alex special pasta, salad, and the garlic bread. Plenty of seating inside, nice sit down place, quick for full service pasta! Try it out!

Caesar salad with shrimp and chicken parmigiana with Alfredo

I was craving a Caesar salad so my husband treated me to some food from Adriatic Cafe, the grilled shrimp on top was delicious and he enjoyed his chicken parmigiana with Alfredo on the side. Jennifer was also an AMAZING server! We will definitely be back.

Chicken Carbonara

We've gone here twice in a month and we love it! The service is very attentive and food is very delicious. People are always coming and going so the atmosphere feels great here. We love it!

Everything is good. Their yeast rolls will leave you craving for more. The red sauce is rich, tomatoes flavorful, meat balls are ENORMOUS.

Are there any vegan options? So no meat, eggs(in breads), dairy(butter)? Normally most dry pastas are at least.

I know the have gluten free options. I don't know vegan.

Any photo worthy dishes? Looking to add them to our food page :)

Maika’i Hawaiian Bbq - MM2 - BBQ Beef Lunch Combo Special

Maika’i Hawaiian Bbq

Came at around 2pm on a Sunday and it wasn't very busy at all, but it should've been. The food here…read moreis fantastic!! It took about 15 mins to come out. Everything we had was flavorful, delicious, and all the meat was moist! I can't wait to come back and I'm sad it took me so long to find this place! Highly recommend!! Service was helpful and friendly. The restaurant felt very clean, spacious, and modern with a lot of natural light. They brought our food out to our table and gave us napkins and utensils, so we didn't have to get up and get them ourselves. Absolutely a great dining experience! The portions are also big! My bf and I each got a Hawaiian Favorite combo and couldn't finish them. The entrees are easily two servings for me, so it's a great value! The containers the food comes in are microwavable too, so extra bonus points for easy reheating! If you do manage to finish an entree in one sitting though, you will be stuffed! It wasn't mentioned on the menu, but there's steamed/sautéed cabbage under the meat. It looked a little deceiving because I thought it was just a huge pile of meat, only to find cabbage under. Thankfully, I love cabbage and appreciated that there were veggies to balance the heaviness of all the meat. That being said, there was still a lot of meat, just not as much as it looked like at first. They also give you little containers of sauce depending on which entree you get, which really enhanced the meal. If you get bbq beef or chicken, you get a delicious, sweet, Hawaiian bbq sauce. If you get the chicken katsu, you get a sauce that resembles sweet and sour. If you get a combo that has both bbq meat and chicken katsu, you get both sauces. I poured the sauce over the rice to season the plain white rice, then poured the rest on the meat even though it didn't really need it. BBQ CHICKEN: Moist, flavorful, and delicious!! Comes in small to large chunks. BBQ BEEF: Moist, flavorful, and delicious!! Comes in thin slices. CHICKEN KATSU: Moist! Fresh, crunchy breading! Tastes better with the sweet and sour-like sauce provided than on its own. KALBI SHORT RIBS: Delicious! Moist! Has fatty bits, unlike the bbq beef, which I really liked! Very similar, if not the same, flavor as the bbq beef. MACARONI SALAD: Delicious and flavorful! Tastes just like potato salad.

First off, I have had one positive experience, but this experience left much to be desired and it…read moredemonstrated a clear lack of care, consistency, consideration, professionalism, pride in the product and just WOW, DISAPPOINTING . To allow a plate to exit your establishment in this CONDITION was unsatisfactory & disappointing. I felt like I got scraps from a trashed kiddie meal, there was no thought given to this. The food was not cooked all the way. Fish was limp. Fish was as small as my thumb. The shrimp were tiny, dry, looked like they'd stayed under lights too long. I mean, the macaroni and rice are pretty simple, you got that in bulk. You can slang that all day. So why didn't anyone take time to AT LEAST make the fish and shrimp shine??? Regardless if the meal is a deal or not, what we receive is a reflection of each person who you touched that plate, WHO SERVED IT AND WHO looked at it, decided it was fine and put it in a bag to be delivered to someone who spent their money for food! Energetically and overall, this was SAD AND unfortunate. I gave my report on Uber already as one star: Maika'i Hawaiian BBQ (10311 North Eldridge) Thank you, Court, for your feedback. I'm truly sorry that your experience didn't meet our standards at Maika'i Hawaiian BBQ (10311 North Eldridge). We strive to provide excellent food and service, and I hope you'll consider giving us another chance to show you that. Please feel free to reach out to discuss this further. Also, don't miss out on our limited-time offer: buy one, get one (BOGO) free! Thank you again for your insights. Why would I reach out to discuss anything further when your establishment dropped the ball? Why would I take advantage of a buy one get one free deal? I won't patronize this establishment again. THAT IS ALL!! DO better.
