    Amazing dining establishment and I highly recommend. I would give "five stars" but a couple of issues I'll address. I heard of this place from a friend and we were in the mood for trying a new place. Easy enough to make a reservation online. Not that much signage so we did end up driving past the first time. The outside is very appealing and the inside is just as beautiful. Unfortunately, they seem to be a bit understaffed. I'm assuming they have recently opened; when we walked in, there was a line of people waiting to get checked in and there seemed to only be one person to answer phones and check people in/seat the guests. She was very nice but seemed overwhelmed. When it came our turn to check in, we were informed our table hadn't been cleared. It was odd to see that she also had to clear, clean and set a table. We weren't sure if this was indicative of how the rest of the evening would go. We were seated in a large booth and they are quite spacious and comfortable. Nice solid table and right next to the bar. The whole restaurant even when full isn't too loud. Our server was fairly quick to come and ask for our drink orders. I wasn't sure if they would have what I wanted to drink, but it seems they have just about everything. So, whatever your favorite cocktail, I'm pretty sure you are going to find it here. Whenever trying a new place, we love to try as much as possible. So, for the Starters, we had the House Bread with whipped butter, the Charred Prawns and the Sashimi. Okay, the bread; it's good... if you like cold bread. It comes in a miniature skillet and while it looks quaint, it came out luke warm and was cold within minutes. They really need to just bring bread out in a warm basket and cover with hot napkins to keep the bread warm. Otherwise, I would pass on the bread because you just going to get cold bread. Speaking of cold, the Charred Prawns tasted as if they had been sitting for awhile before served to us. They weren't ice cold like cocktail shrimp, but they were very cold and almost undercooked. I would not order again. The Sashimi was tuna with coconut milk, peppers, cilantro and red onion. This was excellent and would surely order again. For dinner, we were all in the mood for steak so we all ordered the Filet medium rare and a side of béarnaise. For sides, we chose the Asparagus and Truffle Fries. Hands down, one of the BEST steaks I've ever had! All three of us had steaks that were not only cooked to perfection, but the quality of the beef was a quality that I've rarely enjoyed. Dip the meat in the béarnaise sauce and it was absolute heaven! The asparagus and truffle fries were also amazing. We were pretty full but still managed to sample the cheesecake and pecan pie, both of which were amazing. This is a restaurant I would expect to find downtown Austin. It's a beautiful place and quality food! I hope they will bring on at least a second hostess to avoid the long wait at the front and surely a busboy to clean, clear and set tables would be better than watching the hostess all dressed up in a spectacular dress cleaning tables. They absolutely need to invest in plate warmer. Getting cold bread and cold "charred" shrimp was a huge disappointment. Even the side dishes and steaks would have been nicer on hot/warmer plates. We even have plate warmers in our house and routinely serve meals on plates that are 180 degrees. If we can do in our home, certainly they can do in the restaurant. But there is no question, we will be back. Simply the best steak I have since moving to TX and we have dined in San Antonio, Dallas, Houston and Austin but this is the best steak.

    Great experience overall. Sat on the converted patio during a thunderstorm and it was the coolest thing. Food was a little overly salty for me but still ate it all. Service was absolutely wonderful as they were very accommodating with our 8 month old! Arancini, Ribeye (Oscar style) and a side of mashed potatoes for $100+. So the salt and price brought this down to a 4 star but I'd go back and try more of the menu!

    We've been looking forward to trying out this place for a year now and finally were able to get a rsvp in their enclosed garden room. It is air conditioned but the flies were bad and the setting sun were blinding us - you sat at family style picnic tables and benches - not what we were expecting for a high end steak house. The bar area is very nice but our cocktails were pretty average. We ordered the most expensive steak which came back a little tough - the flavor was ok . The Cesar Salad was good and the loaded mash potatoes as well. Our waitress was pretty busy and we had to ask to have our water refilled a time or two. For a $70 Ribeye - not sure if we will be going back.

    The atmosphere was wonderful and the place was beautiful. We ordered redfish, ahi tuna steak, and the Cajun pasta. All were exceptional. The truffle fries were to die for. The staff was super friendly and attentive. I highly recommend and will definitely be back for more!

The ambience in this restaurant is great! They have a big bar area, with comfy chairs and tables in their lounge. It's separated from the dining area. There's enough room for live music, which they had on Halloween. Low lighting throughout for an intimate feel. We were greeted and seated immediately, but we were a little disappointed in the lack of attendance at 8:30 PM. We had a couple of drinks and a couple of items off of the appetizer menu, and then ultimately decided to head to Johnson City to see what festivities were going on there. The appetizer pricing seemed a little high to me ($20 each plate) but the dishes tasted good. The croquettes are really rich and cheesy. I didn't get a lot of lamb flavor from the flautas, but they were good. They also had free chicken wings and chips & salsa for their Halloween event. The wings & salsa were excellent! If we had stayed another 20 minutes, we probably could've won the costume contest ($50 prize) because we were the only ones dressed up besides the staff, but we didn't want wait until 10PM. It's a classy joint with a speak-easy kind of vibe. Give it a try!

They have local artists come in every week. The music was great and they had the volume low enough where you could still have a conversation if you wanted. The staff was so nice and attentive. They gave great recommendations of the menu. They have an good wine selection. Most of the bottles are from Flat Creek Winery. We had the 4 Horseman which was full-bodied. Definitely would recommend. The baked brie is delicious! It tastes so good with the bread. We had the lemon garlic penne with chicken. The sauce is so delicious and you can distinctly taste the lemon and garlic. The pasta was cooked to perfection. The chicken Marsala was good. Being a mushroom fan, I would have loved more mushrooms in the sauce, but overall was tasty. This was our first time at Adele's but it definitely won't be our last!

    I want to start off by saying that our server was a sweetheart and did an outstanding job. However,…read morethe kitchen needs to be whipped into shape, pronto. We (myself and 2 kids 6 & 8) came for dinner service on 11/22 at 6:15pm. We sat in the patio area, a nice venue with live music. We started off with chips and queso, and the some of the chips were stale and over seasoned and the queso was lukewarm at best. We ate 1/3 of it. We ordered our meals, both kids having the Mac and Cheese with Chicken tenders, and I ordered a ribeye medium rare, but before my server walked away, changed it to rare because I was fearful it would be overcooked. My steak came with a loaded baked potato (undercooked and pretty hard to eat) as well as a house salad that showed up when my steak arrived. I don't know about you, but I prefer not to eat my salad while my steak gets cold. It should have come prior to my entree. When my steak arrived, it was cooked med-medium well. I sent it back. While waiting for my 2nd steak to come out, my daughter complained that her Mac and Cheese was spicy. I tasted it and it was. It was on the kids menu, so that was confusing. The chicken tenders were so over cooked, my kids didn't even eat them. I didn't even mention it to our server at this point, because she was super sweet and accommodating, and I felt bad for her. We just wanted to pay the check and get the hell out of there. Our tab came to $83 dollars and I left her a $40 tip because I felt sorry that she had to defend such a total miss by the kitchen. Super disappointing experience. Do better, back of house. You owe it to the people that sign your paycheck and the front of house team that has to defend your food.
