We just went for happy hour...a nice drink and nosh, fun. Their simple focaccia with garlic butter was toothsome, and the accompanying olives and almonds were perfect little tidbits.
So, happy hour is: buy a drink for $9, you get the bread and you,r choice of an ounce or so of almonds or olives or two other available choices that eve, dunno if they rotate the options but loved what we had.
Friendly staff.
Brilliant. Pizza was the perfect combo of high quality meat, homemade sauce and airy dough with a hint of salt. The seafood pasta, to my surprise, included a rich, spicy tomato base and it totally worked. Even the carbonara, which in my mind I labeled as the weakest of our courses, somehow disappeared completely into my stomach. Staff were a little disorganized, but still totally worth a visit.
Great fresh pasta dishes. The gemelli with Maine seafood was great! Service was also fantastic with the friendliest server.
This pasta is well worth the wait. It's day two post grand opening, and it's a very busy Friday night. Although there are some growing pains in handling a rush, the staff is clearly dedicated to making it a good experience. The food was excellent and I think Ada's has a bright future as one of Portland's greatest. Be patient and enjoy the pasta.
