Staff was warm and friendly. The food was innovative and approachable at the same time. The space is unique and the open kitchen is fun to watch. I may have dimmed the lights slightly and put on a little music, but otherwise, the room was lovely. Would definitely return. Probably many times. Don't skip the house-aged ham or the Solomon cocktail.

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!
