        <content>hi all

my sister is turning 40 soon and we wanted to goto a special dinner out.  we have been everwhere in the area 10 x over and we wanted to try something we never have...which happens to be CAFE ADAM.  i have heard very little on CH about it, but my dad went a few weeks ago and said it was great, but he didnt have any details.  anything thoughts?  anything we must order?  i cant wait.  thanks!</content>

      <content>I've been once so far; tried to go again without reservations on Sunday night of Columbus Day weekend and couldn't get in despite several empty tables.  I enjoyed the dinner.  The fig pizza was a nice starter that we all shared.  I'd like to tell you that I remember what we all had for main courses but I don't.  All four of us enjoyed what we ordered.  Not a very attractive dining room.  It has an awkward layout and no bar or any place else to wait for your table.  Prices were fair.  I will definitely return.  I almost always enjoy my first visit to Berkshire County restaurants but find most don't satisfy upon repeated visits.</content>

      <content>My wife and I have enjoyed Cafe Adam several times, but only for lunch.  The food is good (very good fries with the steak fritte) and fairly priced (upper end for lunch).  The porch is nice on nice days, but the inside is just okay.  For some reason, it strikes us as a lunch spot, although I don't think that is a fair characterization (but probably due to the fact that if you're going to pay higher prices you're drawn to more upscale settings).  My one complaint has been very slow service more than once.  I do recommend it highly for lunch and would try it for dinner, also.</content>

      <content>Have only been once.  Went during the week so was not crowded.  Service very friendly.  Food was good, (I think I had cassoulet - generally a good sign if I remember what I had several months ago at a restaurant, unless it was memorable awful) but probably not in the very top tier of Berkshire restaurants.  Planning to go back but haven't gotten around to it.</content>
