Overall food was great--I particularly enjoyed the steak tartare. Other table favorites include the spicy eggplant and the pei mussels. The brioche doughnuts were disappointing after all the rave reviews. Super greasy and heavy and a little too sweet. Service was a let-down for me. I opted for a private dining event as a nice birthday dinner, hoping for it to be stress-free leading up to it / day of. While I made the reservation early on and saw it was confirmed, I had to reach out multiple times to get in contact with the event coordinator to discuss the prix fixe menu (which is their requirement for private dining). I wanted to set it and forget it, but with no response or even an estimate of when someone would reach out, I got anxious (my event was two days after Thanksgiving so I anticipated communication well ahead of the holidays). I finally got a response Monday at 11pm (event on Saturday). Overall it definitely felt rushed / last-minute and I still had an unanswered question going into the dinner. I also figured the prix fixe menu would be printed out for my guests to know what's selected, but we just had the standard a la carte menu at the table. On top of it all, after being seated, it took a good 20+ minutes before a server came to check in on us, so even up to that point I was nervous and not confident with what was going on.

The food and the cocktail were so good. It was so sweet that they even gave us dessert for our anniversary — we really appreciated it. Thank you!

Candlelit and cool. Delicious flavors - steak tartare, roasted eggplant and mussels, each had distinctive, nuanced flavors. A tasty array of treats to share, candles aglow throughout.

Hands-down my favorite restaurant in Chicago and it's been that way for years.  Great people and delicious food on repeat.

Love this restaurant! The food & cocktails are always so good. It's a little crowded and loud inside but the food is worth it.

The food was fantastic! We would order everything we had again (brussels, acorn squash, mussels & branzino). Loved the vibe- lively, intimate and great music. We will definitely come back.

My husband and I just LOVE Ada Street! It's our go-to for special occasions or to show off for out-of-town friends. It's a 10/10 experience every time we dine, and this time was no different. I often dream about their crispy Brussels sprouts :) from the cocktails, to the music, the service and of course the food - Ada Street just never misses. Can't wait to come back!

Our party of four had cocktails, and dinner at Ada Street on a Tuesday evening. It was amazing! The bartender and our server were so personable and delightful. I can't wait to go back! I am still thinking about the gnocchi this morning! Absolutely delicious!

Ada Street has a great bar to have a drink at before dinner or there were plenty of couples eating and drinking at the bar. The Fing martini was very good and fruity! We had the Brussle sprouts, eggplant apps, the gnocchi and shirt ribs. Everything was 5⭐️ for presentation and taste. Will definitely come back!

Very cool location, great drinks, and excellent service. We found the food really good and interesting but just a little pricey. This place itself was so cool, we can't wait to go back to try the menu items we didn't get to last night.
