    Simply exceptional. The entire team was a delight to interact with; they went above and beyond in ensuring we had a wonderful dining experience. The courses were so thoughtfully prepared, offered unexpected surprises to the palate, and yet very approachable. You could tell the chefs honor the science and joy of their craft. We surprised ourselves in choosing the non-alcoholic drink pairings; they were just as intricate and delightful as the meal. Worth every bit of the price. If you don’t have an adventurous +1, don’t wait—go alone.

    The flavors were amazing and the waiter was incredible. Also was able to try a few off-menu cocktails that were spot on. This place will definitely be a repeat stop on our next visit.

    We went for the Christmas Eve buffet and EVERYTHING was absolutely perfect. The jazzy Christmas music was relaxing. Our server was a 100, he was so friendly and very attentive to everything we needed. He kept our table clean and even folded our napkins for us when we went back for more. The food was amazing, our table of 4 all had different favorites; I'm still thinking about the French Onion soup, Pastrami smoked Salmon, coconut sweet potatoes and soy glazed Halibut. Thank you so much Adele's for a PERFECT Christmas eve dinner with family!
