I can't believe I waited this long to try Ada's! It's unassuming but absolutely delicious. Everything we tried was perfectly seasoned and textured. We started with a mezze platter, which I'd highly recommend to sample a bunch of appetizers. The hummus is fantastic, though I wish it also came with some vegetables for dipping instead of just bread. For mains, the beyti kebab and chicken shish kebab are real standouts. The portions are generous so don't overdo it! Lastly, the baklava for dessert is some of the best I've ever had. Not completely traditional, but excellent. It's served warm, with a crisp, flaky top and a creamy, nutty center. It's truly fantastic.

Ayhan and his team created a beautiful meal for us, both presentation and flavor. The Mezze platter was worth the 2+ hour trip over the border. Tracy was an especially attentive server. She took care of us, made delicious cocktails and suggested a perfect wine pairing for our meal. Truly, a dining experience

We stumbled upon Ada's when looking for a restaurant before heading out to Zoo-tunes. Easy walking distance from the North and West side of the zoo. Once inside the restaurant there are a handful of cute tables as well as a full bar that has seating. We were greeted immediately and decided to sit at the bar. The service was amazing. The hummus and pita were one of the best I have ever had. I went for the scallops which were prepared to perfection. My wife had the chicken which was tender and moist and paired perfectly with a yogurt sauce. There are a selection of Turkish and non-Turkish wines, beers and a fully stocked bar including bourbons and whiskeys. I am already wanting to go back, and next time I will try the desserts. Definitely a 5 star experience and happy I got to sup

We were in the city and wanted to try this place. Overall we were satisfied. Tripe soup was on spot. Mantı was pretty delicious. Donair and iskender was ok. Muhammara dip was pretty tasty. Baklava and rice pudding were 7.5/10 for us. Their Turkish wine selection is good. Overall we spent 209usd for 2 adults and 1 kid. We are not locals to Seattle so I can’t compare their prices to other restaurants around but we found it a bit overpriced for our taste buds vs bill. On the other hand ambiance and service was excellent. The chef came out of kitchen and paid a visit to tables. He was very personable and kind, paid special attention to our daughter and even served ice cream for her as a treat. We would go back again to try other dishes.

Ada’s is a wonderful spot! Tracy let us know about the excellent HH options at the bar when we arrived! As a result we toured the appetizers and they were all excellent! Plus who doesn’t love happy hour on a Sunday! The food was great, the setting is excellent, we’ll definitely be back, highly recommend you stop by if you get a chance!!
