Ada Turkish Restauarant in Moray

Yesterday I tried a chicken burger,platter, etc taste was very bad but the prices were very high as per the market. Chicken burger £13 only bun and patti (no salad, even nothing) but the taste just like under £5. Highly not recommended

Very pleasant restaurant. We were looked after by a lovely young lady.

Good relaxing atmosphere with amazing food.

Was there in March with colleagues. I ordered the mixed grill. the plate was generous and tasty. Thank you.

Awesome food everything is very delicious and the price is completely reasonable and worth it!

Truly outstanding Sunday Roast Dinner, we both decided on the roast lamb, this was served with roast potatoe, carrots, green beans, cauliflower, creamy mash,, yorkshire pudding and an amazing amount of beautifully cooked roast lamb, all served with gravy, and choice of sauces. Amazing value and great service.

I enjoyed a Friday evening meal with friends. We had 3 courses and coffee. Food was delicious and staff friendly. A good range of dishes to suit all tastes and they even had AF beer. Though quite busy, we were able to enjoy conversation. Highly recommended!

This was our first visit to the Ada Turkish Restaurant for a couple of years, and again, we were not disappointed. The menu was wide-ranging with a great range of Turkish dishes. Prices were not cheap but not unreasonable. The restaurant itself has a pleasing appearance. It was quiet when we had our lunch, but we can imagine that there would be a great atmosphere when it was busy. Service was quick and friendly, and our meals were nicely presented. Most importantly, we both thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Recommended

Great fresh authentic food and service. Ive spent time working in Turkiye away from the tourist trail and this reminded me of time with friends in their homes around Adana. We had the cold mezze platter, lamb Guvec, chilli garlic prawns, Turkish Delight and Baclava. Good mix of patrons from families, couples, singles and young groups, great friendly atmosphere.

Never fails, great food, staff and service.

great food great service. I loved the atmosphere. It was the best experience in Elgin. We will definitely come back on our next visit.

Always delicious food and great service

Cancelled our full order of £45 on Foodhub and advised it was because they didn’t have the items we ordered, then when messaging to complain that our refund will now be 3-5 days when they could have easily have phoned and said to change an item ect, they then advised we could come and collect the order?! Turns out Foodhub doesn’t actually automatically put the correct delivery charge on, which is the reason they cancelled it, no need to lie maybe phone and say could you pay the additional £4?! and all they can say is ‘My goal was to act positively. I did my best. The choice is yours.’ Absolute rubbish customer service first time trying to use Ada after being recommended by several people but it will also be the last Just checked reviews on Foodhub and it seems they have cancelled someone else from Lossies order

Been coming to Ada for many years now...even during Covid. Food has always been fantastic for eat in and takeaway. Service was always very personal, but felt tonight it was quite bland. There was something missing. The food was great....the service just wasn't there

Fabulous meal with friendly service, great menu choice at very good value prices, I would personall reccomend the grilled chicken thighs, the flavours are out of this world, along with a nice glas of excellent Turkish wine of course. A great atmosphere, made feel very welcome, and definitely look forward to a return visit.

Probably the worst takeaway I have ever had ,expensive, small portions and what we did get was verging on the inedible

Food quality has gone down from what it used to be and the Five pound “Luxury chocolate cake” is now the same cheap two pound cake from other takeaways not the great one they used to have what a joke won’t be ordering again

Loved this wee gem on South Street. It was a lovely addition to Elgin and felt very authentic. Service was attentive and relaxed, perfect for a night out Food was fresh, well presented, and excellent value for money. Both of us are vegetarian, and there were ample options for us to choose from. Unfortunately, we don't live locally. Otherwise, we would be back again without a doubt

I recently visited lovely Ada restaurant near UHI College for lunch, and I was really impressed. The highlight of my meal was the delicious chicken kebab. The chicken was tender, juicy, and full of flavour, cooked to perfection. It was served with crispy chips that were the perfect balance of crunchy and soft, making a great side to the kebab. The salad was fresh and tasty, adding a nice contrast to the richness of the meal. The chilli sauce was fantastic – just the right amount of heat without being overpowering. The meal was priced reasonably, offering great value for money. I also had a mixed kebab wrap as a takeaway last week, and it was just as good – fresh and full of flavour. It was a real treat, and I thoroughly enjoyed eating it while at college. The taste of real, quality food was a welcome change and definitely motivated me to return. Every bite was a pleasure, and I couldn’t have asked for a better meal. The delicious food and friendly atmosphere made it a memorable experience. I'll certainly be back to explore the variety on the menu. Highly recommend Turkish food if you haven't tried yet.

Came for dinner the other week. We had the chicken beyti, lamb guvec and hellim guvec and courgette fritters for starter. Everything was so delicious and fresh! The waiter was very friendly and attentive. The interior is really cute with gorgeous lamps. Definitely one of the best places to eat in Elgin!

I dined at Ada Turkish Restaurant in Elgin, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with a beautiful blend of traditional Turkish decor and modern touches. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. The menu offers a fantastic variety of dishes, and everything we tried was delicious. The lamb kebabs were perfectly cooked, tender, and flavorful, while the mezze platter was a delightful assortment of fresh and tasty appetisers. The baklava for dessert was the perfect sweet ending to our meal. One of the highlights was the authenticity of the food. You can tell that the chefs take great pride in their craft, bringing the rich tapestry of Turkish cuisine to life. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. Overall, Ada Turkish Restaurant is a gem in Elgin. Whether you’re looking for a casual meal or a special night out, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

Absolute joke of take away, expensive, tasteless and joke of a portion, never again

Went here with my grandparents (visiting from London), sister and mother and we were well taken care of. The food was absolutely exquisite with decent portion sizes. Not the cheapest place but for the quality we had nothing to complain about. We couldn't choose so got two large platters with a couple of sides. Was perfect. Can't wait for the next time!

Lovely small restaurant, friendly service and great food. We arrived early and nothing was too much trouble. Staff were polite friendly and on hand when needed. Would highly recommend

Jimmy the waiter is great Food is good atmosphere is good. Best dinner place in Elgin 🥳

Clean, good Turkish restaurant. Four of us dined there. The food was very good and tasty and was prepared quickly. Very friendly, courteous service. Clear recommendation.

Had a wonderful food here when my son was over on holiday. Really enjoyed.

Lovely food and friendly discreet service. Prices have increased since my last visit but not outwith the local norm. It was quiet at lunch but we were able to sit and chat which was lovely. Highly recommended

Really good food, prices and atmosphere. You can tell it is very traditional as a Turkish restaurant with the very unique flavours

We were visiting the area and needed somewhere to eat. Found this restaurant online. We booked, thank goodness, as it was very popular. I had chicken skewers. These were outstanding. Will be recommending you to friends in the area. The service was welcoming and helpful. It was a great place to visit, and we were glad that we did.

Food was amazing, would definitely order again, w

We really loved the food at Ada, delicious flavourful food. We opted for the Vegetarian sharing Mezze for starter- the courgette and cheese fritters and felafal as part of this were our favourites. We then had the Ada Special and the vegetarian Mussaka which came with rice and salad. Just right portion sizes. Turkish coffee with little bit of Turkish delight on the side finished the meal off perfectly. The staff were so busy. Will definitely visit again if we are working in the area another time. Thank you

Great place. Great food. Great staff.

Food was fantastic. Good price, good ambience and service was very attentive. Deserves 5 stars 🌟

Ordered a gluten free meal and came with bread on top. Phoned the restaurant and they corrected and sent back another meal. Unfortunately it meant our rare treat of a nice take away together ended up being eaten separately. Disappointing as food was lovely.

I've ordered from here many times in past & have always been happy, tonight was no exception

Been in restaurant a few times always good but this order was very poor 3 bits of chicken some rice bit of bread not good value for the money

This is not a restaurant, but a canteen. Reheated dishes, amateur service, and noise, so much noise (loud and uneducated guests) that we hardly noticed the music, nothing really pleasant, and more so, terribly expensive for what we ate and drank. Never again!

A nice quiet Turkish halal restaurant in the high lands the food was good and the portion very good the Turkish coffee and rice pudding was very well made

food was delicious and delivered at the advised time

Amazing as usual. Usually eat in, but got take out and it was perfect. Hot and delicious.

Really good and staff were fantastic

Will definitely order again. the meals were delicious, hot and arrived before the estimated time which was perfect!

Excellent , Ada is consistently good . Anytime I'm in Elgin I go to Ada , Kofta combination was excellent tonight. So good I'm going back tomorrow night 😀

Just chicken n rice could of made that mysel

Simply delightful for high quality staff to delightful staff!!

Myself and my wife Susan paid our second visit to this cracking wee restaurant tonight and the food was amazing just like the first visit and looking forward to our 3rd visit very soon

Don’t care if Brewers Fayre has closed down food is 10 times better here two days two different meals both were excellent. Fresh and tasty none of that pre made food chain rubbish will be back 100%

Really tasty, authentic food with very friendly service.

The food was excellent at every step, the services was attentionate even if we came in a bit late and the decor was thoughtfully arranged. There is no cons Would eat there 3 times a week if I lived nearby

This is one of our favourite places to go for a meal. The food is absolutely delicious and of all the times we have been here over the years, we have never had a single complaint. The waiting staff are very attentive, friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is clean and authentic, has a good atmosphere also. Highly recommend for an authentic Turkish meal.

Friday evening, first time visiting a restaurant in Elgin since moving and very pleased. Food was delicious, fresh and plenty. We had mixed starter for 2 and the mixed grill for 2. Could not finish and took a doggy bag home. Slightly higher priced than we thought it would be, however thoroughly enjoyed. Service was exceptional from all staff and friendly. Atmosphere was good, decor good and what you’d expect - not stand out but very pleasant. Will visit again for sure and would recommend.

We had a wonderful lunch at Ada Turkish Restaurant. The food was amazing and the service was great. We will definitely come again

good service 🤌🏻, excellent food 🤤, The appetizers were very delicious and it was a really nice evening 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Food was amazing, and Cenil was especially helpful with the food and drinks. Beautfiul experience in our short stay in Elgin!

Filled the restaurant with a post conference dinner for 15. Service coped well and other diners didn't seem neglected. We will go back a third time next conference. Good job.

A restaurant we visited with my friends during our highland tour. We liked the food very much, the staff was very friendly and helpful, even the Turkish waiter was very funny and interested, he told us with experience that the photographs of Turkey on the walls were taken from very special places. It was a brilliant evening.

DELICIOUS. My husband and I are on our honeymoon so we have treated ourselves to some pretty swish places around Europe, including a couple of Michelin star restaurants. Our meals from Ada were unexpected highlights of our trip. Obviously the dishes are more rustic than a fancy restaurant... But the flavour was elite. I would go back in a heartbeat.

Had lunch here during a road trip in Scotland. The food was good and generous. Service was efficient. The restaurant is comfortable too. The only thing that could be improved is the volume of the music that is a bit too high in my opinion. And maybe more vegetarian options too?

I had heard very good reviews about Ada and had been excited to try it. Unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed and the experience definitely did not meet my expectations based on the reviews. The cacik was a very small portion for the £5.50 price with far too much oil on top. It was not the authentic cacik I hoped for. The mixed grill was a further disappointment arriving lukewarm at best. The portion was small and the quality was poor overall for £16.50. The lamb was dry. Chicken was better.

Have been wanting to try this place as my husband has always raved about it on his biannual visits to the area. Food was outstanding and did not disappoint. Service was friendly and efficient. Would definitely go back if in the area.

The customer service is really good, and the food full of flavour as expected from Turkish cuisine. More than half the menu is gluten free, although weirdly their rice contains wheat and they don't offer some plain rice as an alternative. If only they had the Effes Glutensiz beer too. Second visit and I will probably return next time I'm working in Elgin.

Firstly let me say it’s a lovely restaurant, the staff are friendly and welcoming , there’s a good variety on the menus and the food was prepared / served in good time. Food was great. One issue , the drinks are absolutely extortionate! We have a pint of normal coke , a pint of Diet Coke and and pint of blackcurrant and soda , they charged us £6 for each ! When I checked with the staff they advised this was correct. To say I was gobsmacked at £18 for 3 soft drinks is an understatement. For this reason we won’t be going back .

First time going for a Turkish meal and I really enjoyed it. Huge menu with something for everyone, very friendly staff, great food, amazing decoration, baby friendly and affordable too will be back.

Lovely place. Attentive staff, good food, nice loo with spare nappies in the baby change... wee touches like this make a big difference when you're tired and hungry. Will be back to try more of the menu.

Lukewarm food, item missing and mixed grill very small portion. Menu doesn't specify some items come with chips. Delivery driver was polite and apologetic.

Fantastic food, genuine and friendly service, reasonably priced. Will return to taste more dishes.

Consistently good in every way.

My family always asks to come here when they visit. Always excellent food and the best service. Love the Adana Kofte and could swim in that chilli sauce. Also recommend the mucver and sucuk starters.

I eat in Ada normally but this time I was rushed and decided to order online instead, I wasn’t disappointed the food was as good as eating in the restaraunt. Chicken shish was delish I fully recommend this .

Absolutely fantastic, I highly recommend it

Absolutely delicious meal again , I have been here a few times now . Each time I have been to Ada the food and service have been excellent. Looking forward to my next visit very soon.

We had a fantastic experience in the restaurant the service was excellent from the young lady and the food was the best we have had on our trip around Scotland well done 👍

Warm & friendly atmosphere, booked a table at short notice & was welcomed at the door by the lovely waitress who is friendly and warm also very helpful. The many has some great traditional meals. Highly recommend the mixed mezzae. The service is brilliant and if you have any queries about the food they will happily help. Great Turkish cuisine!

Exquisite food, courteous service and nice ambience. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

My colleague and I popped in to ADA Turkish Café & Restaurant for an evening meal. The restaurant is a short walk from the local municipal car park which was free of charge (after 6pm) Staff were friendly and service was excellent. The food was very good indeed and I would not hesitate recommending this restaurant to others looking for a bite to eat in Elgin. I look forward to returning when I’m next working in the area.

Great food. Everything we had was excellent. Starting with a delicious mix of appetizers for two, then to the main entrees. It was a very busy night, yet the staff was friendly and attentive. Tried my first Turkish beer and liked it.

Made a special trip here whilst on holiday as the reviews were so good, only to be told they were closing for the day. Well, update your opening times then please.

Amazing. Arrived piping hot, food was incredible. Even the salad is lovely 🤣

Food is amazing, really yummy 🤤

Lovely meal. Will be back! Need to book

Authentic and enjoyable Turkish Cuisine. Helpful staff encouraged their favourites and were quite clearly right! Lovely food and would encourage a visit

This is a very tasteful, small, local restaurant with a good selection of delicious, Turkish cuisine. The staff are very friendly and highly accommodating. The decor is basic bit authentic. The only criticism would be on the value for money aspect. I was a little disappointed with the portion sizes given the price of the dishes. Other than that, if money isn’t an issue, then give this restaurant a try. You won’t be disappointed.

Very good food,with a wide variety of dishes. Reasonably priced & good service. Also, there is a good choice of drinks on menu.Well worth a visit.

My order was wrong. I asked for rice with my meal and I got chips.

Ok restaurant, for great Turkish food better visit any of the 3 restaurants in Aberdeen. The bread was good but it wasn’t the traditional pitta. The hummus came with a single slice of bread, not possible to eat it all with so little bread. The waiting staff was friendly but very busy, so we had to keep asking for service

This was recommended by the host of our Guest House and I'm so pleased it was! There were only two of us and we were lucky because we managed to get a seat on a Friday evening without a reservation and without waiting. Others a little later had to be turned away, so prebooking would be advised. The service is friendly and cheerful, and the atmosphere is lovely - a little bit of Turkey in Morayshire. The food is excellent and I would say that you can't possibly visit the restaurant without trying the olives, which are delicious! Highly recommended.

In Elgin for some Saturday shopping and walked along South Street to see if Ada was open. It’s a favourite restaurant of ours but has been closed on the last couple of lunchtimes we have looked to visit. It was open (Saturday 26th) and had 4 or 5 tables of diners already. The waitress, although young, was bright, cheery and talkative and the food as ever was perfect and at such a reasonable price. Never disappointed in Ada - it really is such a gem to have in Elgin as part of our wide choice of dining options in the area.

We had never been to a Turkish restaurant before but what a wonderful experience the food was delicious. The girls serving were amazing. We would definitely recommend this restaurant.

I ordered a bottle of Efes Draft to go with my main course, the Ada Mixed Grill. The beer appeared promptly and the food was not far behind. Whilst the accompanying salad was perfunctory and the rice only adequate the various meat dishes were excellent. Portions were just right and left me feeling I could eat some more, but probably shouldn't. I finished my evening with a shot of Raki (taken with water). If you've never drank Raki before, watch out! Definitely worth another visit.

Loved this place - very friendly and genuine service, really good food. Had a great meal and already looking forward to going back. Only constructive suggestion might be to clarify the vegan options (and/or the ones that can be done vegan) on the menu.

Beautiful food and lovely staff

Buena comida pero muy especiada y picante.

Absolutely delicious food and drink. Somewhere different to go I was not disappointed. Every time I come I am blown away. Staff are pleasant and attentive and give great service 10/10

I hadn't been for a while but went as it was very good on a previous visit. The food was excellent, really enjoyed it . The drink prices are a bit steep but I would recommend a visit to Ada

Personnel très sympa plats très copieux et délicieux, plein d’options pour les végétariens. Une bonne adresse

Buena comida, pero especiada y fuerte.

8 of us booked and just as well as the place was very busy. It seats about 45 and was full and the staff had to turn away about 20 people in total who were "walk ins." What amazed us was that there was only one member of waiting staff and one chef and they just got on with their jobs without fuss. The waitress was first class and didn't seem fazed by having to deal with all she had to deal with. Yes, there was a bit of a delay but she explained there would be and anyway we were not in a hurry. I'm not a great fan of Turkish food but went with the flow and really enjoyed it. Will definitely return.

We booked a meal here while having a 2 night stay in Elgin. What a gem of a restaurant - delicious food, pleasant surroundings and first class service. It took us a while to appreciate that the waiter, Cevdet, was on his own serving a nearly full restaurant. In common with many hospitality venues they were short staffed. Cevdet managed to deal with everyone politely and competently remaining calm throughout and had a routine that left no table waiting long for service. What a star - I hope his employers recognise this. We hope to return to this delightful Scottish town soon and will definitely return to Ada.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Ada is hands down the best restaurant in Elgin. It’s not that the rest are bad restaurants you understand, but simply that Ada is brilliant in every way. Outstanding, authentic food. Charming front of house. What more do you want? Babaganoush for the win!
