I had a great experience here. Our server was helpful and attentive. We had the salmon and the mezzi rigatoni and they were both delicious. The vibe was really nice. Adalina will stay on our list of places to go in Chicago for sure.

Very enjoyable food and in particular the Pho Bo was excellent - delicious broth. Service was attentive and very friendly. Unfortunately we did not have the best table - right next to the entrance, so the ambience was not as good as it could have been. Otherwise a very good experience.
