"When Jonathan Waxman opened Adele’s six years ago, it was a go-to for pretty cocktails in an airy, sophisticated atmosphere. Unfortunately, roughly 37,000 of those kinds of places exist in Nashville now, so its simple, seasonal approach means it hasn’t retained its go-to status. However, that also means that the things Adele’s got right day one it still gets right. That includes their roast chicken, crispy potatoes, and their meatballs, served simply with polenta and tomato sauce." - Ashley Brantley
