"Ada’s serves a mix of Ethiopian and Dominican dishes with a wide selection of meat and vegetarian options including mofongo as well as samplers served on homemade injera. The owner’s presence lends warmth to the experience." - Celia Buckley, Melissa McCart
"During the warmer months, Asbury locals park themselves the patio at Ada’s Gojjo, enjoying the BYOB policy at this off-the-beaten-path Ethiopian and Dominican spot. Some nights, the restaurant hires a guitarist to play al fresco, which adds to the relaxed vibe of sharing a platter of Ethiopian stews with friends or ending the day with a plate of chicharrones-studded mofongo." - Marion Brewer
"Ethiopian-Dominican fusion is not meant to be a new trend that’s taking the Shore by storm. Rather, it’s the story of one unique restaurant whose chef/owner is from Ethiopia but learned to cook exceptional Dominican food to appeal to locals. You’ll find Dominican classics like tostones, mofongo, pastelón, and yucca cakes on the same menu as Ethiopian dishes served with lentils and veggies on housemade injera. Swing through for dinner, as their outdoor seating area often features some live music. Ada’s is a BYOB, so don’t forget to pack some drinks." - Michael Sinatra
