Cafe Adam - Great Barrington

Loved Cafe Adam, has a lot of research where to go in the Berkshires and happy that we settled here. We wanted non-typical restaurant food and we found it here, definitely a caliber over most places. We had the seafood Bouillibaisse and Bolognese, so damn good. Our server was great, gave good recommendations for food and drinks. Great place would definitely return.

We took our meals at Cafe Adam. We managed to get a last minute of Friday reservation in the night and felt like we won the lottery. Sitting was fast and we had a fantastic place in the indoor terrace section. We were disturbed by mosquitoes for the whole evening (wish their were ceiling fans in this park of the corner, with the brown tufted leather couch mid-19. The menu is truly unique and seems there is something for everyone. Our waitress was great; she answered our many questions about food, ingredients, recommendations, etc. Our appetizers: a bread order the roasted artichokes. Loved the artichoke with the aioli, but the grilled bread had strong hints of beef tallow flavors (perhaps it uses the same grill for its steaks? Just a theory of entrees: the mussel linguine; Mother said they tasted great, and the portion size was abundant. Scallop pork belly; Scallops were sea and tasty, my wife wished some of the scallops had a darker seer (color was not even under all scallops; the pig bell part resembled thick cut deep fried bacon. We hoped it was something braided or grilled. Accompanying vegetables were excellent in the Pesto sauce. My dinner: Steak (Ribeye, medium rare frites. Shoes with pommes were plentiful and salty. Steak was pretty mediocrely rare, though a bit under seasoned. I have been thinking about this for some time and I notice that it can be under seasoned to go with her steak sauce (which tasted like a milder hoisin sauce or to go with the very salty pommes. My only mild complaint was that I hoped that the ribeye had come out with a more carmelised outer crust as it was freshly grilled. Otherwise it was a delicious choice. Dessert was the Moltado (sp. ), who gave my wife two thumbs. Overall a pretty good experience. Ambience and decor were very neat, warm and rustic. I would definitely have our bread order for their wild mushrooms that are pollinated in butter (for forests, freshly picked and displayed at the entrance if I had to do it again.

Yum. Great restaurant, with very accommodating staff and servers. The food is amazing, I propose to get the Venison and the artichokes. Try to come back here every season.

I can't wait to return! It was the best meal I've had in a long time. The Korean BBQ ribs with black rice were incredibly delicate and flavorful, and there was enough left for leftovers. My niece ordered the vegan duck, and she loved it. It was great too, so it's definitely worth it!

Take the new caprese, for instance. The calamari was light and crispy, complemented by a rich seafood flavor. The Korean BBQ ribs topped with roasted nuts offered a surprising twist that paired wonderfully with the tender meat and vinegary pickled vegetables. My only criticism is that the crispy pork in the tacos was a bit dry, although it was still flavorful. Though I won’t be coming here regularly, I think I may return for special occasions—perhaps once a month. I’m really glad I had the chance to dine here!
