Adelinas Restaurant & Bar

carbonara was great, fennel salad was good but was mostly orange slices -- adding chicken made it better. overall food was good, prices were fair, and the decor plus neighborhood is beautiful.my only complaint was that each plate took 30+ minutes to come out tonight, one after the other.

Stopped in to experience the Happy Hour because of the mixed reviews, I didn't want to commit to a reservation!The Happy Hour begins @ 4p! The cocktail offerings are $10 and the beers/wines have a discount of $1-3 dollars off regular price!The food offerings are light fare: bruschetta; flatbread; sliders; fries and lamb lollipops. Those prices ranged from: $7-18 dollars!The lamb was cooked with basil pesto...delightful taste! The bruschetta was fresh and enjoyed the sauce that was drizzled on top! My friend ordered off the dinner menu and had the Linguini and it was ok..The service was adequate and I experienced what many commented on in their reviews...the noise and chatter isn't from the patrons it mainly comes from the service staff having ongoing conversations amongst themselves! They are distracted by their personal conversations and become neglectful of the guests they are servicing! The costs are a bit pricey for average Italian food but I know the neighborhood so I guess it works out!

Dines here for brunch this past Sunday. This was my first time. Parking: Metered street or the parking lot around the back. Atmosphere: cozy and smallService: Adam was our server. He was good. Drink: morning mule. It was very light and refreshing. It had way too much ice, though! 3 sips, and it was done!! My suggestion is to get the ice on the side. The price for the size of the glass was way too much as well. My guest had a long island, and she enjoyed it. She said her drink price was too much. Food:1. Stuffed Focaccia. This was delicious!! Our favorite! We would come for this and a salad!! The bread was warm and crunchy. The whipped ricotta, fluffy!!!! I wish there were more!!2. Veal parmesean sandwich. It wasn't good. Very dry. I asked for me sauce. The sauce lacked flavor. 3. My guest had the wagyu and eggs, and it was a no-go. It was dry and not cooked well. They sent it back and received a credit. 4m truffle fries lacked flavor. I barely ate them. Entertainment;m; A live band. Thru eye good, however, the place was too small, so the band was too loud. You could not talk to your guest and had to scream over the band to the server. They were pretty busy this day. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing. Overall, I was not satisfied with their brunch menu. I may go back to try dinner.

We had such a lovely birthday dinner experience at Adelinas on Tuesday evening earlier this week. After making a reservation via email on Monday (Adelinas is closed on Mondays), we received confirmation of the reservation almost immediately. We were permitted to pick our table upon arrival, and the hostess, who had such a lovely and friendly personality, wished my partner a happy birthday. Michelle continued the excellent service as our wait staff professional, and the food we ordered was delicious. We started with cocktails and rosé, moved on to the stuffed focaccia and calamari as appetizers, and shared mushrooms and brussel sprouts as sides. They accompanied my chicken parm. Everything was so good, but I especially loved the stuffed focaccia, mushrooms, and my partner's leftover spaghetti carbonara (not pictured). The space is intimate without feeling overly stuffy, and there is outdoor seating available. Had the weather been a tad cooler, we would have chosen to sit outside as the view is lovely, sitting adjacent to a tree lined, cobblestone street. Unfortunately, we didn't have any room for dessert, but I really enjoyed the leftovers the following day. Very happy to have found a favorite in the new neighborhood for special occasions.

Excellent brunch, terrible service.We stopped in here for brunch during the home and garden festival. There was over an hour wait at our favorite spot. We sat outside along the side of the building in the shade and got to people watch. Initially our server seemed great, friendly and knowledgeable. We ordered two salads and an omelet altogether. Food was slightly on the slow side but we didn't mind waiting it was a beautiful day!Everyone enjoyed their food. I had the squash salad with chicken which was really tasty and fresh. My mom really enjoyed the Italian avocado salad as well. Our server never came to check on us, never refilled our empty water glasses and after being done eating for over 30 minutes we had to ask someone else to get him so we could get our check. So service wise, no ideal but the food was great!

I've had Adelina's for both brunch and dinner. The ambiance is really nice both inside and outside. For dinner more recently, we sat inside. I need to give another shout out to the greeter at Adelina's; she is such a ray of sunshine. Sometimes when I see she's there I get excited just for her to pass along some joy b/c it's contagious! The service is really good at Adelina's. They really take care of all your needs. In terms of dinner, the stuffed focaccia is yummy! Worth an order for sure. My favorite foccacia in the city is still over at Via Locusta but this is a great option for the Chestnut Hill area. The gnocchi w/ burrata on top was yummy texture wise but a bit too salty. I've ordered some other pastas for take out and they were also too oily. But their chicken parmesan and spaghetti is great. I return for the chicken parm! I'd go again for brunch too, especially since I've heard there's a jazz brunch.

I love this restaurant, it's romantic with outdoor seating. The staff are always pleasant and willing to explain any special dish on the menu. I have not had anything there that wasn't delicious.

It's funny- we've lived in Philly so long that we can remember numerous restaurants that have been in this location over the years. We stopped in one night- just before the kitchen closed for a late dinner. We sat at the bar and had a few drinks, along with the soup of the day and the orange fennel salad topped with chicken breast. Staff was friendly and the ambience was comfortable. We'll stop by again and try some other menu items.

Nice atmosphere but the Chicken Parmesan not worth $30. Next time will just get an appetizer. Watch for the added fee at the end of your bill if you pay by credit card, which they don't tell you about. Who carries cash these days?

Food was solid but overpriced. You can't serve a 4-6oz snapper as a special and price it at $50 which was 25% higher than most entrees on the menu. The sticker shock from the bill detracted from the experience and so I'm not rushing back.
