YES, the waiting staff is young, but they are also very concerned with your satisfaction as far as their service and your meal goes. Chef Adrianne's is a hidden treasure, and many of it's frequents know that. The place is almost always filled with people in the evening and weekends so yes sometimes she does run out of certain foods, but anything you choose is sure to please you. I have been to chef Adrianne's about 5 times or more already. My boyfriend and I go as a little treat every now and then and it gets better every time.
Lump crab cakes..the best ive ever had! amazing!!! i deem this restuarant the best in Miami! nothing beat the atmosphere and most of all the food!! Everything is amazing. My Favorite restaurant!!!

UNBELIEVABLE!!! Words can't describe the pure pleasure one can gain from dining at Chef Adrianne's. I took my GF there last night for her birthday and it was a huge success. I took a real chance on this place since I had never heard of it before but boy did it pay off. She wants to go back again tomorrow and has made dining plans for us to return weekly. She told me that it was her best birthday ever, thats how good this place is. The atmosphere is so romantic that it feels like you are in nappa valley. The food just explodes flavor in your mouth and keeps you begging for more. Everything was fantastic, from the soup to the dessert. The main course is on a whole different level entirely. GO THERE NOW!!!

Chef Adrianne's definitely lacks service. Been there twice, once for lunch and the other dinner. The service was awfully slow both times. Seems as if waiters are way too young and lack experience. My husband requested a certain wine and they were out, my meal was to be accompanied by roasted potatoes and they were also out! Way to pricey for lack of service, knowlege from wait staff, and shortage on wine and food.

Took husband there on a Saturday in December expecting a great meal. BIG disappointment. The Ceasar salad should have been an embarrassment to the chef...limp romaine pieces mixed with a nondescript dressing (Paul Newman's store bought dressing is far superior) and a few croutons that were so hard I almost broke a tooth. And no anchovies. Unfortunately far too many restaurants serve something they call Ceasar salad. They shouldn't. I would, however, expect, an upscale restaurant to at least make an attempt of serving a freshly made, tasty salad. Ours wasn't close.
I had the pork tenderloian...underdone and served in sloppy sauce. The mashed potatoes were hard and anything but fluffy. Again, no flavor. The pork slices were too thick and not tender. My husband's small piece of snapper was over-cooked and thus "dried out" and had absolutely no flavor. It was served atop the dry mashed potatoes. Again, should have been an embarrassment to server and chef.
The only decent thing we were served were the crab cakes.
For a restaurant that prides itself for its wine, we were also surprised that we had to ask our server for a wine list. Nothing about wine was even mentioned until I mentioned I'd like to order a glass of wine.
Needless to say, we did not bother with dessert.
I'm a pretty good gourmet cook and when we spend nearly $100.00 on a meal for 2, I expect my food to taste at least as good as what I prepare at home. I should have prepared a great meal at home and bought some stone crab as a special appetizer.

The only place Chef Adrianne's needs to polish up is on the service. While the waiters are attentive and sweet, they lack the inniciative and confidence to serve this quality of food. The food is amazing and so is the ambience. No place like it in the entire Miami. .While the wine list is short, for those with actual knowledge on wine, will know that its full of collectibles and Napa Valley's finest wines. I'd rather have that kind of wine list than one that's a hundred pages of mediocre wine.
