Description

Run by the Miss Ada team, this Smith Street spot offers both indoor and outdoor seating. The kitchen focuses on Mediterranean staples, with reviews highlighting the flavorful, non-greasy falafel and house-made sides, though some note that portion sizes can feel small for the price. For a substantial meal, there are grain bowls with eggplant and hummus bowls topped with mushrooms. In the evenings, the space occasionally shifts focus to host live jazz, wine events, and collaborative pop-ups.
