   The menu is limited and largely unchanged since I first went there a few years ago. At this price point - which is high - I expect more options and more refined flavor profiles.

   We had waited two years to try Restaurant Adarra. Our first visit was delayed by Covid. It might sound absurd, but it was worth the wait. Great service, nice atmosphere, and truly outstanding food. All of the specials were delicious. I hope to come back here soon.

   Restaurant Adarra continues to knock it out of the park. This was about my fourth time here, this time for my wedding anniversary. I have consistently had one of the best meals in Richmond at this spot. They have one of the coolest food menus in town. It’s a smaller plate, tapas-sharing style. The staff was knowledgeable and helpful with our selections. The chef/somm/owner recommended a phenomenal wine bottle in our price range to go with our meal. Then his wife/front of house/owner gifted us glass of cava to keep the celebration going. Great night. They are a smaller operation- if you have to wait a minute, be patient. It’s worth it. Would also love to come back just for drinks/snacks and sit at the bar.

   Truly the best food/drinks dining experience is the very, very best in all of Richmond. The food is amazing all staff is extremely nice and knowledgeable. The bartender made some of the very best drinks (including two ones off the menu) I have ever had. My wife and I can’t wait to go back. Thanks so much for a great dinner

   Enjoyable evening with friends, who had never dined at Restaurant Adarra. They really appreciated the variety of seafood dishes, which they also complimented, highly. We consumed more than we should have, but did not regret one bite!

   It was all great! The only thing was that Jake cleared our glasses and truly, I would have ordered another glass of wine had he asked. Of course, I could have advocated, but it just seemed like a missed opportunity. Loved the skate wing special, snap pea special, charred octopus, smoked mussels, and basque cheesecake.

    My husband and I celebrated our 42nd anniversary at Restaurant Adarra. It was absolutely wonderful! We shared 5 tapas, each one so delicious. We’re still talking about the gnocchi with rabbit.

    The asparagus special dish is one of the best things I have ever eaten. Hubby agreed and he is not a veggie person! And the cheesecake is the best dessert in RVA hands down!

    Great atmosphere and service, very cosy. Cocktails were delicious. Spanish ham was amazing. Considering the price, Cheese plate was a bit disappointing with only 3 types of cheese including a blue cheese that is way too strong for most people (and I'm French!). Other dishes were great, although the octopus was a bit overcooked. Wine by the glass menu is very small (only 4 options, 1 per color), but we liked ours.

    From the service to the food everything about Adarra was perfect. My friend had never been before and I was glad to introduce her to this place. All the servers were attentive to our table. They made great suggestions for both cocktails and food. The lamb specials are always the best. The cheesecake is a must try for everyone and you cannot go wrong with any of their tinned seafood meats. It is a little pricey but the value and quality are more than worth it!

    We drove in from DC for a special dining experience in Richmond. Arrived for our 7:15 reservation and found the restaurant about 1/2 full. Based on excellent reviews we were excited about our dining adventure. We were particularly eager to hear about entree specials since these had been highlighted in reviews. Sadly we were informed that they had sold out of all specials and only the tapas were available. In fairness we were told that the restaurant was closing the next day for a staff vacation as an explanation. We ordered 5 of the tapas items on the menu. They were all very good. The tuna, shrimp and cauliflower were outstanding. Wines by the glass were unusually good. We will be back again and look forward to a more complete experience.

    It's a small intimate setting with very cool ambiance, fabulous service and amazing food. My fiance said if he would be able to plan his last meal on earth, it would be from this establishment. Absolutely delicious food, and our server Katy is so charming and had out of the park recommendations all night. Go there!

    Food and waitstaff of this place are both fantastic. The weak link in the experience is the owner, whose overbearing interest in turning tables is evident throughout the meal. Despite half the tables being empty, she made it known that she was interested s in getting us out as quickly as possible. I understand how restaurants work and the need to avoid lingering customers, but her interactions were weird and uncomfortable. I spent $170 on a delicious meal, and walked away feeling as though I had been cheated. Choose your times carefully.

    The food was amazing. It was the best meal I've had here, and definitely the best meal I've had in the past 2 years. We had a great bottle of wine that we were super stoked on. My only complaint is that our awesome server stopped mid-way through the meal and another server picked up the last half of our meal. The first server was awesome, super nice, and attentive. We ordered this cool bottle of wine and gave the server several chances to try it as it opened up and changed. We were really vibing with them. The second server wasn't very nice, and it just felt like an inappropriate move to just stop serving us midway through the meal. It was a special occasion and I consider this a fine dining restaurant. Honestly kind of ruined our vibe, unfortunately.

    Definitely a wonderful experience! The service, food and drinks were remarkable. There were some items I was a little hesitant to try but after tasting them, they were all incredible. I do not recall all of the names of foods we ordered, but the shrimp, squid, octopus, tuna, squash, soups…. It was all amazing! Our waitress was extremely knowledgeable and very personable, we will go back!
