Adriatico is known primarily for its restaurants and bars centered on the area around Manila's Korea Town between Pedro Gil and San Andres Streets, considered the center of bohemian night life in the city.[3]
The street was named in 1964 after Macario Adriatico, a Filipino parliamentarian from Mindoro and author of Manila's city charter. It was formerly known as Dakota Avenue, after the U.S. states of North and South Dakota, collectively known as The Dakotas.[4][5]
