Adelmo's Ristorante

Frommer's Review

A charming, traditional Italian eatery occupying a cute two-story house tucked into a nexus of high-end design and furnishings shops, as well as a bevy of upscale bars and restaurants, Adelmo's is a refreshing and unexpected find in the Knox-Henderson corridor, which is obsessed with being chic. Adelmo's may not be fashionable, but it is as low key, cozy and friendly as it looks, with excellent, personal service, and a good value to boot. It's one of the few restaurants where entrees still come with a dinner salad. Classic dishes include homemade pastas, of course, and osso buco. I recently took my mom here for dinner, and we enjoyed stuffed mushrooms and gnocchi, pork loin medallions Florentine, and a gorgonzola-crusted buffalo rib-eye. The wine list has some delightful finds and good deals. Dallas has plenty of restaurants hoping to be the next big thing, but Adelmo's is content to be cool in its own skin.
