    Located in Hudson Square, Adoro Lei is a cute-nice Italian Restaurant. Went there for lunch. Good thing AL has Pre-Fixe Lunch Menu and full bar. Our waitress, hostess and every member of the staff were friendly and nice to us. I loved the art displayed. I will visit again when in the area. 1

    Impromptu drinks after work between both our offices and I remembered going there and got the Caesar Salad +Chicken w/ a glass of Sancerre at the bar. Great, friendly, fast, but not rushed out service and bonus Happy Hour till 7pm (while most places in the neighborhood ends at 5 or 6pm). We didn't leave till 8pm. Def be back for a quick drink to catch up w/ friends. Your typical pizza, pub-like set-up and they had the soccer game on all the TVs so fans were rowdy.

    They have a full menu if you don't want to make a pizza We ate at Adoro Lei before taking a short walk to the Soho Playhouse. We arrived early because the show started at 7 PM. By the time we left, all of the larger tables were filled by groups making pizza. The cocktails were good. Perhaps the Smoked Old Fashioned was better than most. The fresh pasta was very good. We enjoyed the Pappardelle. The room is comfortable and the service is attentive.

    My boyfriend and I came here to celebrate Valentine's Day after seeing the boozy brunch pizza-making featured on social media. When we entered the restaurant, there was dim lighting and it was decorated for Valentine's Day. I admit that the decorations seemed tacky with streamers and paper hearts hanging from the ceiling. Regardless, we were excited for our meal and were first presented with the toppings (cheese, tomato sauce, potato slices, pepperoni, green onions, ground pork, and mushrooms). We were disappointed by the lack of selection in the toppings especially since my boyfriend does not eat pork and some of the toppings were atypical (potato slices and green onions). We were then given balls of pizza dough and provided with instructions on how to work with the dough to stretch it into a pizza shape. We were given very little time to do this and felt very rushed by the staff. We also felt that we did not have enough time to put on the toppings and spread the tomato sauce to our liking before our waitress returned to take our pizzas away. The appetizers were also a bit questionable. We were each given a single poached egg garnished with an avocado slice and cherry tomatoes. We also had waffles with strawberries and chocolate drizzles. The waffles tasted stale despite the appealing appearance. However, once our pizzas came out, they were delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed it! At the beginning of the meal, I was given a rose which was a nice gesture! We finished up with dessert which consisted of cotton candy and beignets/donuts, which I didn't even try since they didn't look appetizing to me. My boyfriend tried a donut and said it tasted stale. Overall, we did not have a great time at Adoro Lei especially for the high price we had to pay ($90). We will admit that the staff was phenomenal at the bottomless aspect of the meal and was constantly refilling our glasses!

    Slid through here on a rainy Wednesday night for a Boozy pizza making class for our company All Hands event. We were rolling DEEP. 37 of us strolled into Adoro Lei, some already a couple High Noons deep getting loose. It's always fun seeing coworkers go mask off. My social battery was on life support, so I was just tucked in the corner big chilling. Plus I'm really shy and insecure. Our Serbian waitress came over and started instructing us on how to properly make pizza. My first thought was skepticism, as what do Serbians know about pizza? What does Gaga know about cameras? But then I checked myself and realized it's close enough to Italy to get a pass... and she was really sweet. I felt like a 1504 Michelangelo sculpting the dough, meticulously putting on the right amount of sauce, cheese, and pepperoni. They instructed us to name our pizza, and I thought we were really naming the pizza and not just putting our name, so I named mine Schrodinger's Cat. Big up to my guy Schrodinger. Once all the pizzas were cooked, they came around and gave shots to whoever they thought had the best looking pizza. Objectively speaking, Schrodinger's Cat was the clear winner, but they ended up giving it to the top performing sales guy whose pizza looked like it was made by a 4th grader. I think the C-Suite called in the fix on that one. If you can believe it, Schrodinger's Cat tasted even better than it looked. Honestly some great pizza. My compliments to the chef.

    Came to Adoro Lei for a birthday party and it did not disappoint! Our group of 15 did the boozy pizza making package and it was super fun. Our waiter was super helpful and had fun with us while demonstrating the pizza making! There were so many great toppings to use and delicious appetizers to enjoy while the pizza was cooking.

    Loved it here! Had so much fun making my own pizza! It was quite the experience and I loved it. Especially with endless wine! ‍ #iminheaven Service was fast and excellent, and the ambiance - Adore!

    Had the pleasure of checking out Adoro Lei for my sister's birthday for the Boozy Pizza Making Nite. The establishment had great ambience, their staff was very friendly from beginning to end. They guided us through the process, explained what to expect, and brought out all the ingredients for us to create our pizzas. Once we finished assembling them, the staff labeled our creations, whisked them away to bake, and served us appetizers while we sipped on our drinks. The whole experience was super enjoyable and would recommend for your next celebration!

    My coworker's and I decided to hang out and try something new. We made reservations for seven people for the pizza making. When we arrived we where seated right away the staff was very nice. The establishment is very nice the bathroom are located down stairs very clean. We had red wine or prosecco then started making our pizza's with toppings. As the pizza was cooking the table was served salad and rice balls. Once the pizza was ready we was served. The food was great the service was excellent.

    Ambiance: The inside was Christmas themed which was really cute since we went late December. Everything was sparkly. My only complaint are the tables, they are too small for a pizza making class on top of drinks and your personal items! it made it very hard to maneuver and not spill. Service: The service was good the host taught us exactly how to make our pizza and was quick with our bottomless drinks and appetizers. Food: I will say that the food was amazing the appetizers, drinks and especially our pizzas! For the price I would come again but with a smaller group for more space. I would love to come back to try their regular menu one day since I just came for the pizza making

    Celebrated my bestfriend birthday in their private room located on the lower level. The party size was at least 16 people. The room was has intimate dining vibe but what I liked is they allowed us to play own music (Bluetooth speakers). We had 2 hours of unlimited drinks. Our server was older male who was so nice, great customer service. Making the pizzas were so cool, the server came around to ensure we were getting it right. Toppings were provided: cheese, pepperoni, jalapeño, sausage, fresh basil, & arugula. Pizza was good, slightly burnt but nonetheless good. I'd definitely recommend for date night or fun girls night to do.

I remember liking their drinks, but I never stopped back in, as I don't go out to drink too often. More recently, I was here a few months ago with a large group for their Sunday Roast. The staff were friendly and gave us good service, even though the place was crowded, and there was some loud but pleasant live music playing in the background. Of course, a bunch of us got cocktails. I went with their signature Irish Coffee, as I thought the Alexander one, based on a Brandy Alexander, would be a little bit too sweet. Said drink was $17 and had Teeling Small Batch Irish whiskey, Andytown coffee, Demerara, freshly whipped cream, and nutmeg. As can be seen in the hundreds, or rather thousands, of other reviews, their Irish coffee is excellent. It's not too sweet or too bitter, with enough whiskey for just a tiny kick of alcohol, along with a hit of spice. Another person loved the $20 Frozen version with the same whiskey, along with Mr. Black coffee liqueur, cold brew coffee, cane sugar, and cream, and I believe someone else got the fancier Alexander version for $21. Outside of their coffees, there was a mix of other cocktails, including the Doctor's Orders for $21, with Wild Turkey 101 bourbon, Laird's apple brandy, cinnamon, allspice, grapefruit, and lime. I remember trying it as I gave the other person a sip of my drink and enjoying it. The majority of us went with the same $44 Sunday Roast as our main dish. This consisted of a roasted sirloin of beef, bread stuffing, roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese gratin, roasted vegetables, Yorkshire pudding, beef gravy, and horseradish cream. The beef was cooked to my requested temperature, and only a small portion of fat wasn't rendered down properly. However, this wasn't the case for others, with one person's steak in particular having a lot of fat. I partially blame this on the sheer number of orders, but that was unfortunate. The roasted vegetables consisted of carrots and broccoli, and they had a nice char, along with the potatoes. The stuffing was standard, and I liked the unique gratin in particular, as it added an extra texture and saltiness to the dish. The gravy it came with was nice, with some richness and a good beefy flavor, which paired nicely with the Yorkshire pudding and the vegetables. Lastly, I used a small bit of the horseradish, which helped cut the richness. Overall, it was good, but if I had one of the other people's plates, I might have liked it a bit less. This is a tasty place with particularly good cocktails. They have thousands of good reviews for a very good reason. Good luck in DC and Austin as well.
