Best Italian Restaurants in MGM Grand Detroit

All of the pasta dishes were cooked perfectly and enjoyed to al dente perfection. We ordered 5 dishes -- Gnocchi di Patate (good, but was expecting really over the top and it wasn't); the bucatini, spaghetti de mare, lumache, and the casarecce, were all exceptional. The salad and frito misto were fantastic. The burrata was disappointing, in that it was a ball of burrata and there was nothing served with it (e.g., bread or cracker of something) to eat it. The vanilla semifreddo was the best dessert and the chocolate mousse was good. The budino was odd. The pinot grigio (Klaus Lensch) was great. The rose was so-so. Overall, a good night and an exceptional meal and experience.

We arrived on time for our 7:30 pm reservation and were told there was a 15 minute wait. After repeatedly checking, we were finally seated at 8:30. For much of the waiting time we had to stand in the crowded lobby of the Shinola Hotel. That said, however, the food was fabulous. I had the brussel sprouts and the black ink seafood pasta. My partner had the burrito salad and the scallops. If we do return, we would have them again. The service was quite spotty. Our server would disappear force extended periods of time. If the management can possibly learn how to manage reservations, as most restaurants do, we would go back again. (Takeout may be a much better option.)

3 of us dined for Christmas Eve one of our traditions we try and do at Adiamos on the riverfront for many years. The dishes we ordered this visit, the 20 ounce steak special with shrimp that my husband said was his best ever! I had the Veal Marsala that was divine, our daughter had the Sausage and Gnocchi dish. The desert our fav, for me crème brulee’ hubby and daughter cannolis, Amazing night!!

Everything cooked perfect. We all had ribeye or ribeye cap. Shrimp cocktail was good, big shrimp. Ordered mashed potatoes, corn, carrots, and Mac and cheese for sides. Carrots were my favorite. Drinks were awesome. Smoked old fashioned was outstanding. My only complaint was 1 steak out of 4 was served about 10 minter we were served. Manager apologized and took it off bill. Wasn’t expecting that but what a way to make up for it. Thanks Sexy Steak for a lovely Christmas Eve. dinner.

Our waiter, ALEX, was outstanding. So was our waitress who was working with Alex!
