Celebrated my bday with family in their VIP room--we were a large group. The warm hospitality from the moment of arrival and the care, precise attention, knowledge of food and wine was Michelin star quality.
The Chef sent over several "food gifts" to keep our pallets and minds engaged between the multi courses from start to finish. Every dish was artfully displayed accompanied with a factoid/story about its ingredients and the Chefs point of view. The service timing and level of attention was never excessive--they just intuitively anticipated our needs and floated in and out.
I have traveled to Lisbon and experienced some of the most innovative and freshest ingredients--Adega had brought that same memorable experience to SJ. I will definitely be going back to explore the entire menu. I enjoyed all that I tasted from the Sommeliers wine suggestions to Caldo Verde, Octopus, Iberian Pork charcuterie, Seafood Cataplana, Poached Cod, Duck and Pastries/Sweets and all the Chef treats in between--all super creative and refined. ��.
Four of us celebrated my birthday at Adega--the atmosphere, food, wine, and service are amazing! We had the tasting menu with the wine pairing--it was a delightful experience and each course was totally delicious! I highly recommend this place and especially the tasting menu! We ate, drank, and laughed for almost four hours!
We had the charcuterie, the cheese plate, the bone marrow and the shrimp for starters, lobster bisque, cream of potato soup, seafood rice and the pork loin. The sparkling sangria was the beverage of choice and we finished off the night with a drunken pear and coffee. Each dish was a work of art, a feast for the eyes and the palate. Absolutely wonderful. Service was excellent. And there was valet parking which was a very nice touch. For 3 people we spent about $240 including beverages and tip, which is not a lot considering the quality. I would highly recommend a visit. There is a beautifully appointed room that seats about 8-10 guests. I can't wait to host a small party there; I'm just looking for a reason to have a party now. Enjoy!
Great atmosphere. Incredible service and food.... loved it... I have eaten in 5 Star restaurant and this one is top notch from the one on one attention from the waitress Sandra to the table visit from the owner. Will definitely eat here any time I'm in the area...
This restaurant is consistent with creative dishes and great service. Last night, we tried the tasting menu and wine pairing- not only was the food and wine excellent, but the price was quite reasonable. Try the grilled sardines if they're still on the menu- they're seasonal, and extremely flavorful and juicy. The wines always stand out - go with suggestions from Carlos, and you can't go wrong.
Amazing meal! Excellent service and food. No doubt deserving of their Michelin recognition. Sad to hear they are closing. Will definitely try their sister restaurant and bakery. They truly made my husband's birthday a special one - extra dessert, a glass for a toast and card signed by all staff.
This was one of the best experiences I have had in a while. I loved the food, the presentation, the service and ambiance
I had gone there for my birthday celebration and they gave us an extra dessert with champagne and a birthday card signed by all the restaurant employees including the chefs … it was so touching. Overall lovely place.
I will highly recommend it. Do try out before they close down for good .
Urgently get in by NYE 2023, or you will miss your chance at sublime Portuguese cuisine in an hours long experience. A superlative wine list from a sommelier who actually spent time in Portugal will open your mind to surprising wines that compliment each course. Highly recommend doing the wine pairing and seven course tasting meal. You can do the full menu with meat or choose a pescatarian or vegetarian menu, and all were tasted by our table with rave reviews. Multiple servers assist you throughout the meal. Also, pre-order a box of pastel de nata, as these are the best we've had outside of Portugal.
The Iberico was melt in your mouth delicious. The service was fantastic, they even gave me some ibuprofen because I had a headache. The pescatarian menu was also very good. They give you a lot of food so come hungry! Parking in the nearby neighborhood is probably your best bet, may have to walk a few blocks.
We dined here on 7/16/23. The food was delicious with great presentation and service. The pasteis de nata were sooo yummy and Diego made amazing Peruana cocktails. We had a great experience and highly recommend it!
