Adelinas

“I recently checked out Adelinas Restaurant and Bar and had a really great experience overall. First, shoutout to our server Ryan, who was genuinely kind and attentive the whole time. Service like that always makes a difference and he made the experience feel really relaxed and welcoming. The space itself is cute and has a really nice vibe. They have a grass wall that makes a perfect photo backdrop, but just a heads up — you’ll need a larger table in front of it to sit there. If you’re hoping to grab that spot for pictures, definitely come with a group of four or more. Another huge plus: free parking. If you know Philly, you know that alone is a win. It made getting there and leaving super easy. Making a reservation was also simple, and the crowd when we went was really diverse, which I always appreciate. Now the important part — the food and drinks were great. I loved my drinks and everything we ordered hit the mark. One thing I really appreciated was the avocado toast, which was made with actual fresh avocado instead of one of those pre-made spreads a lot of places use. You can definitely taste the difference. Overall it was a really solid experience with good food, good drinks, great service, and a fun atmosphere. I’d absolutely come back. What we ordered: • Hugo Spritz • Bellini • Focaccia • Avocado Toast • Steak & Eggs • Sweet Pea • Devil’s Pool • Espresso Crème Brûlée”

“Adelina’s has a vibe all its own. Whether you’re planning a night out with friends or a cozy dinner for two, this place delivers. Its contemporary atmosphere creates a fun, welcoming energy from the moment you walk in. The food is both authentic and delicious. I highly recommend starting with the stuffed focaccia, olives, and calamari. For mains, the pasta carbonara and the filet mignon are outstanding choices. The staff is top-notch—friendly, attentive, and committed to making your experience exceptional. Adelina’s is absolutely worth the visit.”

“Absolutely loved this place! The staff were warm & attentive—Nicole in particular was incredibly sweet & accommodating, which set such a great tone for the night. Our server Adam was great as well. The food was outstanding. We started with the burrata & squash salad, both beautifully balanced, & then shared the fusillino, which was rich & flavorful. Most places I’ve ordered a similar dish to this from - its way too creamy & overpowering, this was perfection. They even split the entrée for us without us asking—a small but thoughtful detail that shows how much they care about the guest experience. The ambiance is equally impressive. Inside, the design & décor are stunning. We sat outside, where there’s a generous number of tables & large heaters that kept us warm n cozy. Having worked in the industry for 15 years at several high-end Italian restaurants, I can honestly say this place does not disappoint. Chestnut Hill is lucky to have a restaurant of this caliber. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an elevated yet welcoming dining experience.”

“My boyfriend and visited this place on Saturday evening for the first time. We got calamari and the focaccia for apps, chicken parm and spicy rigatoni (added shrimp), and we tried tiramisu and cheesecake for dessert. Everything looked amazing (including their specials!!) so we had a hard time deciding what to get. We were extremely delighted with everything we tried! The calamari was lightly crispy, the focaccia was so flavorful (little oily so messy to eat- delicious nonetheless), the pasta was so fresh, and the desserts were pretty good too. They had 3 specials which sounded incredible, I wish I had tried them. The pasta was still very good though. I did not find the spicy rigatoni to be too spicy, but adding shrimp was a great addition and I highly recommend!! We were happy with our experience here and will definitely be coming back!”

“Anniversary lunch was.a Great experience! Place had chill relaxing vibes. Hostess was welcoming and super friendly. Waiter was accommodating, nice and helpful. The food and drinks were wonderful. Wife had steak and eggs along with a mimosa. I enjoyed a squash salad with shrinp and an expresso martini. So good! To top it off we shared tiramisu… they brought it out with a candle…nice touch :) It was so good we got dinner to go. Needless to say we’ll return. Extra credit for a immaculate bathroom and a great music choice (love me some Rick James)”
