A word from our friends at ADAMO`S::
Happy New Year from our family @adamoskitchen @adamoskitchenmitchellsd and @tenutaadamo
It`s been a busy 2024!
Our local Sacramento restaurant surpassed it`s 10 year anniversary over the summer... a silent celebration.
Framing is underway at the Mitchell location. It`s complicated work turning a historic storefront into a restaurant!
Our winery in Lucca had its most successful year to date! Our wines are recognized internationally, and we have many visitors who have managed to visit both the winery and our restaurant!
We thank all our customers, friends, and family for another successful year. We look forward to 2025 and many new adventures.
❤️ The Adamo Family 🇮🇹
