Delicious Ethiopian food complemented by two vegetable sides and a salad was yummy and Beyond expectations, the chef / owner took personal care of me because of my allergies and the service was great, if you're not in the mood for Ethiopian they also have a full Dominican Republic menu which we will try next time

Dietary restrictions: Just tell the chef what you were allergic to

I have been going to Ada’s for probably close to a decade if not longer. I am familiar with Ethiopian cuisine and she truly delivers every time. While I can’t speak to the other cuisines I have learned over time that her heart is in every dish. The doro wot is top! (Well it all is). The AP location is lovely. I can’t wait to go back, and that is coming from a Californian.

Staff was poignant and friendly! Food was quick to come out and an amazing fresh bite! I had their mufongo and fried pork chops, a beet salad, a monster Cubano, and the tres leches cake! 😋🫶🤌✨️
