Reservation recommended, there's always quite the crowd requesting tables. I was very pleased with my meal, our waiter was friendly and efficient. The service was fast. It seems like they have most of the dips prepared and ready to go. We tried a couple of skewers and they were all tasty. I was not too crazzy about the salmon as it felt undercooked. The chicken one was my fave. Usually they'll have an off menu special. Really enjoyed the drinks and the ambiance of the play

Had a fantastic birthday celebration at Miss Ada! The food was fresh and tasted great (I recommend the chicken skewers) and our server Pablo went out of his way to make the experience amazing. Will definitely be going back

Quite a popular place in the Fort Greene area, @missadanyc had many customers going for yummy middle eastern food on a Sunday evening. The two of us were super stuffed after this meal, so I'd recommend getting one less dish!

We went to Miss Ada for a weekend brunch and sat in the sidewalk seating. Luckily we had a reservation because there was a wait for tables. All the small plates sounds so good and we decided on the sweet potato hummus. I've never seen it on a menu so had to try it! It was delicious and the almonds on top added a nice crunch. We shared the Israeli breakfast which came with two eggs, a little green salad, labne, and matbukha. All the components were so flavorful and went well together. Definitely get extra pita to dip in the labne and matbukha! We also got the shakshuka which was also delicious. The eggs were perfectly cooked and the sauce was hearty. Miss Ada will definitely be a regular brunch spot!

They never miss with any of their dishes, and my entire family (including my Korean grandma) loved the meal. We came here for brunch so didn't get to have the bigger entrees but we filled up on the shawarmas, pitas, and mezzes. We mopped everything up.

Go here. Sit at the bar. Relax and enjoy DELICIOUS food, cocktails and vibes! I was able to get 5pm reservations at the bar on a Friday so my Finance and I decided to kick off our evening with apps and drinks. My only feedback is that we weren't able to eat MORE since we had dinner reservations to get too afterwards. Sitting at the bar was the move. The bartender was super attentive, sweet and helped us navigate the menu. We landed on the Octopus and Whipped Ricotta which were both to die for, an absolute must. For drinks, my finance got an old fashion, which he loved. And I tried the Dead Sea and Veridian Cocktails. Both were beautiful and very tasty! The long short of it is, if you're looking for a spot to dine, drink or dine AND drink in Brooklyn, go to Miss Ada's. Book reservations as far in advance as possible and don't make the same mistake as us - get apps, drinks AND dinner here. See ya next time, Miss Ada!

Been wanting to check out Miss Ada for a while since I'm a big fan of Mediterranean food. Came here for brunch. The brunch menu wasn't that extensive. Ordered a bunch of stuff to share: 1. Whipped ricotta: always good. This was alright 2. Baba ghanoush; same. Nothing special 3. Hummus with shortrib: smaller than expected. Not much meat. Tasty. But kinda sad how little meat there was 4. Shakshuka: spicy, tasty, not bad Overall, the food at Miss Ada was good, though nothing great and nothing special. Brunch servings are on the smaller side.

TLDR: incredible Mediterranean food! All the dips we tried were delicious and the meat incorporated ones were especially flavorful. The steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned and our waiter recommended a great wine to pair with everything.

I don't eat Mediterranean food super often, but these were great flavors with some twists on dishes I'm used to. The lamb shawarma hummus was a fun dish. Loved the soft, fresh pita. I just wish they brought it out with each dish instead of us constantly having to flag them down to ask for more... I'm also not sure how they charged for it because we got charged for only a few? Wish that was clearer.

Had an incredible meal here last night with some friends. Everything we ate was fantastic. The crowd favorite which was a last minute edition to our "tasting" experience was the short rib hummus. This is a flavor bomb in your mouth. Savory, slightly sweet, slightly vinegary from the pickles- just incredibly delicious. Second for me was the sweet potato hummus. So smooth. It's interesting because I thought it would possibly taste like mashed potatoes but no; this definitely is sweet potato hummus. It's silky and creamy. The pita is thick and fluffy and holds up well to the different dip options. For skewers we ordered the kofta kebab and the chicken thigh. Both were delicious but most preferred the chicken. We also got the falafel which wasn't dry and was perfectly fried. We also opted for the octopus that was a recommendation from our server. This was also a surprise favorite. Some of the best octopus I've had. For dessert we got the Kanafeh which was the perfect light touch of sweetness but not sickly sweet at all. I love the textural elements of this dish and the crunch. Our server was kind enough to also bring us the chocolate babka to try, very yummy as well. I have 0 complaints about this meal and entire experience. They allowed us to make a change to our reservation and add an additional diner same day. The space is inviting and beautiful. I could not be more pleased. Drinks were also delicious. 5/5
