lunch that makes you feel like you got away with something mid-day.
From the moment we sat down, the service set the tone. Aldo, our waiter, struck that perfect balance of polished and genuinely warm. He guided us through the menu with thoughtful recommendations beyond the basics, checked in at just the right moments, and made the whole experience feel effortless without ever being overbearing.
The space itself feels elevated but not stuffy, which is exactly what you want for a power lunch or a long, lingering catch-up. Everything we ordered felt intentional and well executed. The quality is there, the presentation is there, and most importantly, the flavors hold up.
It’s the kind of place where lunch turns into “should we stay for another round?” and suddenly your afternoon looks a lot better than it did before you walked in.
Already thinking about when I can go back.

Highly recommend. The space is stylish and cool art deco without pretentiousness. Menu is classic steakhouse with innovation without being kitschy. Staff and service were attentive and fun. Everyone we interacted with was professional and personable. Our server Michelle made a great unannounced birthday dinner even better!

10/10 experience at Adalina Prime!! We had a wonderful dining experience and wanted to give a special shoutout to our server, Jim. He was friendly and attentive. The food was fantastic. We especially loved the truffle Caesar salad and the Brussels sprouts!
Overall, it was a great evening with excellent service and delicious food. Jim truly helped make the experience memorable, and we’ll definitely be back!

The restaurant space is astounding, and absolutely gorgeous, I wish I could say the same for the service. I sat at the bar, and was not even greeted kindly by the bartender. He had glasses and is an older gentleman. He bluntly asked, “What do you want?” after I just received the menu and in 2 seconds I am supposed to know right then and there what I would like? I love looking through the menu and hearing suggestions on what is the best. Neither of those steps occurred. I felt as if I was annoying the older gentleman. I will say that the halibut I ordered was absolutely delicious. The beautiful pearls of caviar and salmon roe really complimented the beurre blanc. That was really the saving grace of my experience. For paying $75 for dinner, wish I could have been treated with better hospitality.

Michael M was the best server I've had in all my years of dining. He went above and beyond and knew the product. He made our experience first-rate. However, pay attention to the unitemized extra fees in addition to the normal taxes.
Dio was the best!! Love everything about this place

From the moment we sat down, everything felt elevated yet welcoming. A special thank you to Julius for always being so attentive and making sure every detail of our experience was perfect and shout out to Roberto, truly some of the best service I’ve had in Chicago.
The bread trio was the perfect start to the meal. I honestly didn’t think bread and butter could impress me the way it did, but Adalina proved me wrong. Every course felt thoughtful and perfectly executed, and the atmosphere made it even better. DON’T skip on the swirl, it’s a staple! I’m already counting down to summer, I definitely see myself on the patio with their Caesar salad and a dirty martini in hand. I wish I had more pictures of the food but we really got caught in moment and by the time we remembered well, we ate first haha
Thank you, Adalina Prime, for such a memorable night. Can’t wait to come back!
