    My wife and I had a fantastic dinner, she had fish and chips. Very tasty, I had the shrimp with rice pilaf. I cannot say enough about our waitress Liz as well as the support staff. Numerous times they checked on us refilled drinks and took away plates as soon as we had finished. The food was excellent, flavorful and with very nice garnish. Had a wonderful experience and will be going back again.

    We love Ada’s. We love the food options and that the corkage is $10! A big plus for us. The waitress we had was so nice and the new crab bisque was awesome!

    We both started off with the clam chowder. It is award-winning and I see why. My husband and I were in agreement that it was the best clam chowder we’ve ever had. We both had the Pacific snapper tacos, and those were wonderful as well. The fish Was so fresh. We sat at the bar and the bartender was super attentive. Overall a fantastic experience.

    Although we greatly appreciated a window table as requested in our reservation, our order was incorrectly delivered causing a wait for my husband’s order and cold food on my plate. Additionally, his $20 fish sandwich lacked flavor of previous visits. There was no check in by server and no mention of him leaving most of plate untouched. Disappointing visit. Will try one more time before going elsewhere.
