Restaurant Adarra

Presentation lacking for price. Good dishes, but only good, not exceptional. Service slow.

Authentic Spanish tapas. Very good food, service and ambiance. Will go again!

Lovely meal with attentive service! Intimate ambience, perfect for a date or cocktail with a friend.

Spectacular. Food is off the charts and even the mock tail wowed us. Love this place.

Everything was fabulous! We will go back!

Just superb and Lyne and her staff are just superb!

Excellent meal! Everything we ordered was delicious! Service was very good but had multiple servers which is always confusing. We will be back.

Loved the ambiance - low light/cozy sort of feel. The food was really quite good (outstanding is not a vote I give out very often!), and some very interesting combinations. Loved the gnocchi ... which was nice and light - not the pasty, heavy variety that most places serve up. Warmed harissa olives, a squash dish, also lovely. I thought the chickories were a bit bland but others really liked them. Their version of cheesecake was absolutely wonderful - sort of a cross between a soufflé's and a cheesecake - with olive oil and salt - don't miss it! Another diner though the olive oil was too much but you can get it on the side. Very extensive wine and alcohol variety list. I will definitely go back and probably frequently. I wasn't looking for a large meal - and my party were all very happy with portion size. But it's a smallish menu, and although there are a couple of larger portion meals, if you are a big eater, you could be unhappy with the selection. But a restaurant cannot be all things to all people, and for many of my friends this will be perfect. We went on the early side (6:15) and it was delightfully quiet - good for conversation! Can't say what weekends and later are like.

Outstanding food, amazing flavors, great service! Will definitely visit again. Every single item we tried was ‘wow’ ! Great wine selection too!

Superb food and wine choices. Great service and casual ambiance. Our favorite RVA eatery.

Wonderful evening. The restaurant has a nice vibe and comfortable ambiance. Outstanding service and food was all amazing. We particularly loved the white anchovy appetizer with fennel and blood orange and the stuffed squid also unique and delicious.

What a great night! We tried several of the small plates and every single one was fabulous! We will definitely be back!

Excellent experience

This place is the literal best, eat there.

Lyne and Chef Randall have created something truly special in our city with Restaurant Adarra. The food is meticulously prepared and presented. The wine selection is unlatched. The cocktail program is also stellar. Do yourself a favor and give them a try if you haven’t already.

Some of the very best food in Richmond. Ties Brennar Pass as my favorite restaurant.

Wonderful food, drinks and atmosphere.

The best meal we’ve had in Richmond! Cannot wait to go back!

My favorite restaurant!

An amazing evening to celebrate my husband’s birthday!! Couldn’t have asked for a better night ❤️

Great food and atmosphere. Excellent for sharing a variety of small plates

The food was excellent! The owner was more than happy to discuss the food, food preparation, and background to the menu selections.

We will be back again to enjoy this restaurant!

This was my first visit, but definitely won't be my last! Need to come back and order the other half of the menu!

Absolutely delicious! Escargots, anchovies, shrimp, and bread to die for. Wine list expensive and good price point. We’ll
return often.

Loved everything about this restaurant from the cocktail selection to the classy ambiance to the variety of delicious dishes. I’ll definitely be back!

Outstanding experience. Very creative menu and a wine list like you’ve never seen. Such and an unexpected and thrilling adventure.

Best restaurant in Richmond. Amazing food, service and atmosphere

When I sat down, I wasn't sure I could find anything I would want to eat. The server was excellent in suggestions (she was the owner). By the time. I left, there is no other restaurant I prefer. It is the typical small, loud (and cold) Richmond restaurant but we loved it.

We enjoyed everything about Adarra and LOVED the service and the fish stew.

Get service, great food, nice atmosphere!
Can’t wait to return.

We love Adarra! The food is delicious, the wait staff is very personable and professional and the atmosphere is fun and inviting. It has become one of our favorite places in Richmond!

Service was fantastic. It was like a tapas place, small plates that you share. Interesting flavors and neat selections. We thoroughly enjoyed it and will definitely go back.

delicious. great menu. wonderful offerings. can't wait to return

Two words are joy and caring. The people there absolutely care that you like what you ordered, and offer to replace if it's not to your taste. But the food itself is a joy, creative, thoughtful, and delicious. Can't wait to return.

Loved everything about it. Will definitely be back.

The food was out of this world! Each dish was better than the last - everything was perfectly seasoned and prepared by a kitchen that takes pride in both taste and presentation. If the braised snails are on menu when you go - don’t hesitate! The service was attentive and friendly, but not overbearingly so. If you enjoy Basque cuisine, or are interested in trying it, head over to Adarra.

This tiny gem in Jackson Ward is an absolute delight. The staff were very attentive and made recommendations which we accepted. We each had a small plate, one with mussels and one with shrimp. The mussels were cold in a delicate spice, the shrimp were hot. Then we had a superb paella with duck meat and mushrooms which was amazing.
It was a little pricy, our meal was $75 with no alcohol. But we would go back.

We were traveling through Richmond and were told Adarra was new and quite good. This was a recommendation from a top restaurant in town. They were right. we felt fortunate to find this place. The Galician special was wonderful as were the appetizers. Creative and tasty preparation. We appreciated their wine list which included a number of interesting wines from Eastern Europe. While these wines might have been overpriced it was worth the experience of tasting something beyond a standard quality French and Italian. If we are to come back through Richmond we will definitely try to return.

Amazing food, staff and atmosphere!!!

Everything about Adarra was beyond our expectations. The dishes are fabulous and definitely shareable. We had three plus two desserts (desserts were just to tempting to share) and were most satisfied! Can’t wait to go back!!
