Homemade Pasta

From classic chicken piccata to rich, slow-simmered Bolognese, our pasta dishes are crafted from family recipes using imported ingredients and house-made sauces.

Fresh Seafood

Delicate fish fillets, tender calamari, and succulent shrimp prepared with Mediterranean influences. Our seafood arrives fresh and is prepared with the care it deserves.

Our Story

A Family Tradition

Adelina's Restaurant & Pizzeria is a family affair, owned and operated by Lisa and Bernie Cummings with their daughter Paige managing the downtown Wilkes-Barre location. What began in Mountain Top, Pennsylvania as a neighborhood favorite grew into one of the region's most celebrated Italian dining destinations.

When a devastating fire destroyed the original location in 2025, the Cummings family refused to let their dream end. They rebuilt in the heart of downtown Wilkes-Barre, bringing Adelina's to the historic Genetti's building and introducing a new chapter rooted in the same passion for authentic Italian cooking that has defined them from the start.

Today, Adelina's continues to serve the dishes that made them famous -- handcrafted pizza, homemade pasta, fresh seafood, and premium dry-aged steak -- all prepared with the care and quality that only a family kitchen can deliver.
