Aidriana’s

Went there 3 times for lunch. Great value. Entrée salad for just $ 8! The Chorizo burger was very tasty and nicely presented. My friend had Scottish salmon which look really good. Our waitress was nice and knowledgeable about the menu.

I was between 3 and 4 stars and decided to give them 4. This place isn’t easy to fine, especially the door. There isn’t an obvious door, there is a door on the right that is an entrance to multiple suites in the shopping center. You look around, no sign inside. But two of the three doors have other business names on them, so obviously it’s the door down the dark hallway with no name on it. Once we walked in there was no hostess, no sign that said seat yourself or wait for someone. So we stood there in an empty restaurant for a short time until the bartender greeted us and sat us. Our waitress (Holly) was friendly, stated she had only been there two weeks, but she did seem fairly knowledgable about the menu. She was awkward at times, but I could tell she was trying really hard, so I can’t fault her for that. We ordered some drinks and the crab enchiladas for an appetizer. While waiting we discussed how odd the place felt because it was empty. It was an evening and we were the only ones there. How does this place stay in business? The long bench in the middle also felt like a bench stolen out of a church, but hey, it went with the ambiance I guess. The enchiladas came and we ordered our dishes. I ordered the chorizo burger and she ordered the king bone in pork. The enchiladas were delicious. They had an apple slaw on top that added a nice cool element to the spicy enchiladas. The main courses did take some time to come out, but we honestly didn’t care. I can see why others complained about it taking a long time to receive their dishes. If we were the only ones in the restaurant and it took 20 – 25 minutes, I can’t imagine the wait time when it’s a full restaurant. The dishes finally came out and they were presented well, and tasted delicious. The only thing I did not care for was my chorizo burger was paired with pork rinds. I don’t think they taste good, nor do I think they pair well with any dish at a restaurant. I’d much rather have had fresh fries or nearly any other side dish. Overall, the food was presented well, tasted delicious and our server was good. I hope they stay in business, they really should advertise on Facebook or other social media platforms.

Had lunch at Aidrana’s today. What a spectacular meal. The waitress was great — kind and attentive. The cream of mushroom soup was the best I have ever had. I had heard that their soup was special and this was no exception. It was delicious! The cowboy steak salad was a wonderful portion– the dressing was great — seasoning was perfect and the steak was quite good. So glad that we chose Aidrana’s today! Will definitely return. Can’t wait to try dinner here.

I cannot believe the hype this restaurant has. The food here is mediocre and way overpriced.
The flavor of the food here tries to hit an exotic note but ends up fairly tame and uninspired — think exotic for sheltered eaters. I ordered the chef’s pasta and it was so heavy and buttery I couldn’t finish it. Pasta should carry flavor that extends beyond cream and butter, at least if you’re paying top dollar for it. I was left wholly disappointed.
The atmosphere here is quite romantic (though the lighting was so dark we could barely read our menus) and the service was acceptable, but if you’re paying over $ 100 for dinner you should at least have your table cleared between courses. We were eating our next course while piling our dirty dishes on the corner of our tiny table, carefully maneuvering around the mess in order to eat.
Overall the restaurant just doesn’t live up to its exorbitant price tag.

Having dined at other restaurants in this same space, we were pleased at the improvements to the décor. We were pleasantly greeted and asked if we had a reservation… there were 2 – 3 tables of small parties in the entire restaurant so our lack of planning didn’t keep us from being seated at a small table for two. The waitress was pleasant and offered information when asked for her recommendations. When the bread arrived, it was not hot, warm or even appeared to be made in house as others mentioned but we were hungry and it was fine. My friend and I ordered the same house salad and cowboy crusted prime sirloin with au jus rojo and cumin crisps on cojito crack.
When the waitress brought the salad, she apologized for «taking so long to bring it out and the chef was just plating your entrees.» The salad was very tasty but we barely got to enjoy it before we were juggling our entrée plates, salads, bread basket and water at our small table.
As I said, the salad was delicious… but that was the last positive experience of the dinner. When I had asked what the steak was encrusted in, she said it was chili inspired but not spicy. What arrived was an attractive plate of coarsely mashed potatoes, a generous amount of strong au jus rojo, a pile of sprout like greenery and two pieces of inedible steak marbled with fat and gristle. I was mortified, with nowhere to turn but my linen napkin, when challanged time and again with bites I attempted but could not eat, no matter how motivated. My friend had the same meal however, her meat was edible thankfully! She did find the au jus overwhelming and the random raw red onion out of place.
When the waitress inquired how our meals were, I said that while the potatoes were tasty, I was not able to chew the meat. She said «let me tell the chef.» I asked her to please take the plate with her. When she returned, she stated that ‘since I did like the meal but not the steak, they would take 10% off.’ This entrée was $ 21.00 so that was a deduction of $ 2.10. Seriously? I’ve heard of a complimentary dessert but 10% off? NEVER! Silly!!! Whatever, at this point, we just wanted to go! I realized we had never had our water refilled and to top it off, when the bill was presented, there was no pen provided to sign the receipt. I realize that sounds petty but in a linen napkin restaurant, it seems a detail that should be attended to.
We will not be returning to or recommending Aidriana’s. The two stars are soley for the salad. I can’t even give the mismatched-​to-​the-​décor-​music a star.

First, before getting into this too much, let me say the restaurant is fairly new, and thus we will always cut some slack, but in this case the problem was just too great.
We were looking forward to trying, as we were familiar with the chef from other restaurants. The restaurant for us was about a half hour drive. Atmosphere was very nice.
The big problem was our server. She did say she was fairly new, but nothing really prepared us for how bad she would be. It started with the wine — we ordered a glass of house cab, she set down a glass of white, and did not understand the problem. As the evening went on, it was obvious she had never waited a table before, and was not trained one little bit. We asked about the pasta special. She replied, «it has those curvy noodles — I don’t know what they are called, and other stuff in it» She didn’t know what else. On the dessert, she said «it was some type of pudding, with some other cream, I’m not really sure». This is supposed to be a farm to table restaurant, and I felt the average McDonald’s 16 year employee would know more then she did.
Those were just a few examples on the server, and it was non stop. It got so bad, we just felt uncomfortable.
The food was very good, and to be honest, had the server been even average, I would have probably rated 4 stars. Considering the quality of the food, it really was great for the money. We had pork, and my wife has pasta — and we thought both were excellent. The salads were also unique and flavorful.
I do hope this service issue is worked out. I feel the restaurant has great potential, however we will not be back, until we start hearing some very good things from friends.

Just had some of the best pasta I have ever tasted in Toledo. Cajun catfish on herbed pappardelle noodles. The dessert was the prohibition Sunday from Chef JR and it was unbelievable. He incorporated seven different beers into seven different components of this dessert.

I prefer to patronize locally owned businesses and we thought we would give this one a try. So three of us went in for drinks and a bite for happy hour. I didn’t stay. We were the only table, our waiter was very unorganized and slow. It took every bit of 15 minutes for him to get our drink order correct in the midst of flat soda and they didn’t have wine available that was on their list. Nothing on the menu looked appetizing.

My first visit here was a great experience. The food was really good, I had the French Kiss sandwich which tasted like some of the best pot roast I’ve ever had. We also had the seared scallop appetizer and others in my group really enjoyed their food. My second visit wasn’t quite as good. We shared the fried chicken and the rarebit burger. The burger was really good but I would have preferred the chips without the sauce on them. My friend thought the chicken was tough and a bit dry, I liked the crispy outside. I hope this place makes it because we were the only table for a while. Our wait staff said they’ve been slow. Consistent food quality will be key here. I’ll go back.

Delicious food, fantastic service, great wine list. The seared tuna is some of the best I’ve ever had. Creative pasta dishes change daily too. Will return often.

Great place. Food was excellent — i had the salmon and my husband had the pork. Good wine list and cozy atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

New restaurant to the area and it was amazing!!! The staff was very friendly and attentive! The bread was fresh and made in house. The rest of the food was amazing too! Three different meals at our table and everyone loved their choice. I will be going back many times!
