Adalina delivers elevated Italian dining with a side of glamour.

A striking mural of a woman surrounded by roses greets you at the entrance, setting a dramatic tone that flows through the entire restaurant. The glamorous high-top bar invites you to unwind with expertly crafted cocktails, while plush velvet booths offer a cozy, photogenic escape amid the vibrant dining scene.
