Wine bar with shareable plates, seasonal fare, and craft cocktails



























"A farewell but not goodbye, this Tivoli Village spot closed on November 26 with a Friendsgiving feast as chef-owner James Trees relocates it to the Arts District, reopening as Ada’s in the original Esther’s Kitchen space on Friday, December 19; general manager Kat Thomas and chef de cuisine Jackson Stamper will continue leading a team centered on a seasonal menu and an award-winning wine list to better mesh with the new neighborhood." - Ryan Slattery

"Tucked away in Tivoli Village, Ada’s Wine Bar by Esther’s Kitchen restaurateur James Trees offers bottles and by-the-glass wines organized by type and taste. The wines live in vividly described sections on the menu, so sampling a “creamy, dreamy and fine” chenin blanc or a “bright, juicy and elegant” pinot noir constitutes an adventure from the very first sip. Visit during happy hour and enjoy the patio while sharing a $25 bottle of red, white, or rosé, along with some crispy Brussels sprouts or a cheese and charcuterie board." - Jennifer Smith
