The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and offers good service, but ultimately, you go to a restaurant to enjoy the food. I found the dishes quite average, especially considering the prices. The butternut squash soup was excessively salty, and my drink was nothing special for what I paid. My main course was particularly disappointing. I ordered the pork chops with polenta, and while it sounded appealing, it was topped with turnips, which I had never tried before. Unfortunately, they were awful—tasting like undercooked, rotten potatoes. I mentioned this to the server, who kindly took them back to cook a bit longer. He was very accommodating, but I ended up waiting while my husband enjoyed his meal, which was frustrating since it was our anniversary dinner. When the turnips returned, they tasted exactly the same—still horrible and undercooked. I suggested to the server that perhaps I simply don't like turnips and that they might always be that firm. He was understanding, but we still paid too much for a meal that just didn't meet our expectations. Regrettably, I don't think we'll be returning.

We always have a wonderful time at Adelle's. It excels in every aspect; our server was outstanding and the food was delicious. We really appreciate dining outdoors whenever we can. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Elevated American Cuisine. At Adelle's, a singular commitment to quality defines your dining experience. The menu focuses on seasonal ingredients and the best produce available. Be sure to take advantage of the daily specials, as any dish that excites the chef is bound to be a delight. That said, everything I’ve tried from the regular menu has been outstanding. The dining room is inviting and surprisingly spacious, and in warmer months, the patio area is definitely worth making a reservation for. We also love the bar, where the full menu is offered in a pleasantly quiet and warmly lit atmosphere. This spot is truly worth a visit.

Debbie and her staff did an excellent job in setting up and taking care of our large, 30 adults and 3 children, rehearsal dinner crowd. Debbie created a wonderful full course menu for the evening that included seafood, meat and vegetarian options. Everyone really enjoyed the food and the menu was perfect! The service was outstanding! The staff was so attentive and welcoming and we were all taken care of very well. If you are looking to book a large group event at Adelle's I would highly recommend it!
