An outstanding restaurant in Aberdeen. This was a fantastic dining experience. Delicious food with amazing novel options, cooked very well indeed. Innovative cocktails. It was my friend's birthday and they made it an incredibly special event which was hugely appreciated. The decor is classy yet relaxed and the service was wonderfully friendly.
It's good to see Adelphi Kitchen back, once more serving up cooking inspired by the Deep South, US. Health food this is not, so it's important to go hungry. Not sure my appetite was truly up to it last night as I left feeling a bit overstuffed. That said, the scallops I had as a starter were perfectly cooked, I was 't crazy about the white pudding 'soil' , but it made a change from the more common black pudding. The blackened fish was also perfectly cooked, but I could have done with more focus on the fish and less on the mashed potatoes. The other fish special, the smoked haddock fishcake, didn't sound very light either. The small wine list was interesting and the one we chose was excellent. Will go back though as it's such a unique offering in Aberdeen
Still one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. Great food, great service, great atmosphere, great location. Would highly recommend this place to anyone.
Visited a few times before under precious ownership and unfortunately this time was not up to the usual standard at all... let down to say the least.
First time back at AK since it re-opened. Love the interior and staff were nice and friendly. We were a group of 4 for pre-theatre dinner. The food, wine and service was excellent. The menu style has changed from what I recall but still very good. I will give a slight criticism in that the desserts, although very good, were not of the same quality as the appetizers and entrees. Glad to see this lovely restaurant back in business and I look forward to my next visit.
As if it had never been away. No big changes in the restaurant, food as excellent as always. Our waitress was welcoming, friendly and efficient. My ribeye steak was delicious and perfectly cooked. Happy to have the restaurant open again, I will be back very soon!
we were a table of six people and found the menu excellent, staff we very friendly and welcoming the restaurant was decorated very well and although small we were seated comfortably, we will definatly go back
Fantastic, excellent service, thank you to the wonderful staff for making a great night. Food was excellent, would highly recommend. We will definately be back.
Great service and great food. We highly recommend for lunch or dinner in Aberdeen. We hope we can make it back sometime soon to finish trying all the mix and match combinations!
Nice food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Our starter came out very quickly but service of the main course was very slow; it took about an hour from when we arrived.
Visited with my family last weekend. Excellent service and fantastic food. They were very helpful with one of our group who is gluten intolerant. Will definitely recommend to friends.
We had a lovely night at Adelphi. Excellent food and service, lovely atmosphere and we certainly didn't go home hungry. We will definitely go back again soon.
The food was brilliant and the service was lovely! Had a great time here and will definitely come back, thanks for a lovely night! :)
Enjoyed sharing the special surf and turf with pulled brisket and the blackened fish. Also shared the cheesecake & chocolate mousse cake . Environment was relaxed but attentive . Would definitely recommend a visit
My wife and I dined here for valentines day. The restaurant has a great atmosphere and the menu, although limited, is all from locally sourced ingredients and the dishes are high quality Scottish cuisine. I ordered the venison which was divine and came with perfectly cooked dauphinoise potatos, which, on top of my scallop starter was fantastic. However my wife ordered the Mussel's starter from the specials board which was rather bland, salt being the only distinguishable flavour. Her main was also dissappointing, a Gnocci dish, that really didn't seem at home on the menu and really was a poor attempt to cater for vegetarians. Those negatives aside, I would have still rated Adelphi kitchen highly and merely considered it poor luck on the night for those particular dishes. However, to finish, we ordered what sounded like an amazing dessert. Butterscotch pannacotta. This was the real let down of the night, not only because the flavours didn't work at all, but because the pannacotta was clearly imprinted by the CE markings from the plastic container it had been removed from, and the strange cakes that came with it were also clearly store bought. I would still recommend Adelphi, but stick to the menu's strengths and avoid the dessert menu completely.
Good atmosphere and decor, great song list, good food. Service was also attentive. We ordered from the menu and only realized while eating our meal that we had missed seeing some of the specials on wall as they were behind a pillar. Staring and craning our necks to try to read the specials was difficult and they'd be better served to run through them better or hand them out. Cocktails were all very fruity so we stayed away from them. Wine list is small but good and we enjoyed the wine.
Food was excellent and well prepared. Good variety of food offered on the menu with a specials board to choose from also. Staff very friendly and helpful when needing assistance
Very nice venue, well presented and very warm welcome. Its not cheap but using best of good quality local ingredients. Good to have this venue back!!!
Excellent food and service - what more would you want! The restaurant decor is best described as rustic Scottish and works well in it's quaint setting.
Great servoce, and I heartily recommend the specials! Amazing food and coctails all around :)really appreciated tat they took our coats to hang in the back while we ate.
Very tasty food, although lunch portions were a lot smaller than what I remembered. Wish they'd bring back the lunch deals they had under previous admin.
Excellent food and service. Great to have the venue open again and will definitely be back again for more food and drink. The special dish of Scallops was particularly delicious.
We had an excellent time at the Adelphi Kitchen. Outstanding food, great atmosphere and very attentive staff. We would certainly recommend this restaurant. Thank you!
The food was lovely and the staff were very attentive . I woul definitely visit again and try some of the cocktails next time. 😁
We ate here on Saturday 15th were met at the door by friendly staff and shown to our table, service and food was excellent would definitely recommend having a meal here.
Excellent food and service, will definitely recommend Adelphi Kitchen to friends and family. There is no doubt we will book again and look forward to another enjoyable evening there.
Lovely food, we went on a Thursday night and it was quite quiet. Waitress and waiter were very attentive and accommodating especially with explaining the different specials.
I recently visited for a meal with my fiance. We both had a lovely meal. Waitresses were really accomodating and easy to speak with. Will definately recommend.
Surf and turf menu. The restaurant in side is very pleasant. Waiting staff were lovely, however the food was unsatisfactory. Two drinks we tried to order on the menu were out of stock. The starter was missing a component and had to be sent back. The main came with a different side as the chef "didn't have time" The fries with the other main were over salted to the point of inedible. We were told the usual chef was on holiday so I'm not sure who was filling in but they were substandard and likely struggling. I'd be happy to try again when the usual chef is back
Great intimate venue, friendly attentive staff and great food. Excellent selection of evening special choices. Type of food similar to Maggies Grill but more upscale. Recommended.
Undoubtedly the best food I've had in the city. They smoke their own meat! Fantastic little venue and the staff have great knowledge of the menu.
Great food, great service and very nice atmosphere. Highly recommend and will be back very soon! Great to have the Adelphi Kitchen back up and running under new owners.
