Absolutely fantastic. Famous Turkish hospitality. Spotless clean restaurant. Staff were amazing and attentive. Food paradise in Edinburgh. Paradise for your stomach. Great variety of food for any taste. Lots of vegetarian options as well as grilled meat. Lamb shish and Doner were both fresh and amazing quality. Very impressed with Mocktails and home made Ayran. Definitely will come back. Highly recommended. Thank you.

Not the first time visiting this authentic Turkish restaurant and won’t be the last…they never disappoint us. When someone comes over to visit us in Edinburgh, a dinner at Ada’s is a must! We highly recommend this place and each and every plate from their menu. Also they’ve been great for our celiac guest with lot of options and GF bread available.

A loud group was making it impossible to hear the other couple in our party of 4. But, the staff asked the group to turn it down and it helped. The food was fresh and Turkish seasoning was very good. The Chicken sish kabobs might be enough to share.

Visited ADA in Antigua St have some food before a proper festival night out and was served by Kiril from Ukraine. Hope I spelt the name correctly. What a place, the food was amazing, so tasty, perfectly cooked, full of subtle flavours and my son, my friend and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were totally top notch and the service was on point, none more so than from Kiril. My only point of comment is that I was unable to leave a tip because when I went to pay tips were not permitted when paying by card which is a real shame as few people carry cash these days and I did not have any with me. This made me feel bad as I could not reward the wonderful service we received from Kiril and his colleagues. I’ll be back and will try to make sure I have cash next time but I’d like to ask the owners to change this policy and help reward their amazing staff for the great work they do as it’s hard to make living in the hospitality trade and these guys deserve the opportunity to be reward by those they look after.
