Adalina

I was referred here by a friend. Adalina's is in the center of a very nice community. Certainly a family oriented area! Adalina's is on a strip of shops but it certainly doesn't feel like it on the inside! The inside is huge and quite reminds me of a restaurant experience in south Florida. Big open area with an open kitchen and 360 degree bar. Patio dining is also available with a shade. Now, the food.. DELICIOUS! I couldn't be happier with the plate designs, neatness, and quality ingredients! The server (Sabrina) was very attentive. I will ask for her on my next visit. I can't forget to mention how accessible, private, and clean the bathroom is too! OVERALL: 10/10 🤩🤩🤩

Came to dine with the Southern Restaurant Partners and ordered the shaved lamb over a bed of lettuce. It was seasonal, delicious, and had a great compliment of flavors, textures, and colors. I’d definitely recommend and will be coming back to try out more menu items! The atmosphere feels very authentic yet modern Italian. The hospitable and amiable owner came out and spent time talking to us. You have to check out the unique bathrooms!

Chic decor, that is both stylish and homey. Delicious food with a changing menu that incorporates seasonal items. Including one of my favorite pizzas in town! Seriously, the dough is sooooo good! Which is always a sign of a carefully thought out and crafted pizza. It was so good in fact, I went in with friends with the idea of sharing and I ate most of it alone. The desserts are fun, too, I like their take on the tiramisu (using macaroons! It is not too sweet but definitely satisfies your sweet tooth) and they have quite a few fun ice cream flavors. Perhaps what makes Adalina special for me is that it doesn’t advertise itself as an “authentic Italian restaurant” (which is BS, unless you are in Italy and are using that water and have those customers, you cannot be authentic) but rather as “Italian inspired”. In doing so the restaurant allows itself to experiment with classic dishes while taking full advantage of local produce. I highly recommend it.

Very attractive brightly lit Italian restaurant. Hip vibe and feel. Bar very busy on a Saturday night. Promptly seated at 7pm as per our reservation. Friendly enthusiastic waiter, who helped us promptly order drinks. However, not so promptly delivered. We enjoyed our drinks, and waited to order appetizers, then entrees. The restaurant was packed and really loud. Really loud! 85 decibels on my iPhone decibel app. Our appetizers arrived on time, but the entrees did not show up until an hour later The friendly manager told us they were overbooked and not prepared for the large crowds. However, he did not offer to comp anything. My wife and I had pizza, the other had crab pasta. Lamb and red snapper. All thought the food was good By the time we finished dinner. None of our party was interested in staying any longer to have coffee or desserts. Easy to free self-park close to the entrance. No valet. Bottom line: Vibe is better than the service.

Decor and ambiance was really nice. The staff was super friendly and attentive. The menu was a bit underwhelming. I felt like the options were a bit all over the place. We ordered the crab fritter as an appetizer and it was delicious but $17 for just two small fritters. As an entree we ordered the rabbit sausage pasta which was delicious but also a bit small on the portion size. Dessert was the Elijah apple fritter which was delicious as well. Restaurant still feels pretty new and I feel like it has some kinks it needs to work on but overall ok experience. Won’t be returning because they’re better Italian restaurants in city within same price range.

The food was amazing. We tried pizzas and several pastas. The ingredients were fresh and brilliantly paired. The staff was attentive and friendly. By the time we left, they felt like family. We let Dennis pick the wine for us to match the food. I have had wine complement the food before but not like this. It was like the wine was created for that dish. I highly recommend and will be a regular.
