Why Miss Ada is hard to book
Chef and owner Tomer Blechman runs one of Brooklyn's most loved rooms, and the demand badly outpaces the seats. The dining room is small and intimate, with a coveted backyard garden that all but vanishes the moment it opens. Tables release on a narrow window two weeks out at nine in the morning, and the prime weekend slots are gone in the time it takes to refill your coffee. There is simply not enough room to go around.
We do the watching for you. We track the exact moment the window opens and we watch for the cancellations that surface in the days that follow, then we secure the table in your name for the night you actually want. Same restaurant, same date, every time. We never hand you a different room or a different evening as a consolation. You tell us when you want to sit at Miss Ada, and we get you that seat.

How do I get a reservation at Miss Ada?
Name Miss Ada and the night you want. We book it on your account the instant a table opens or a cancellation appears, and you only pay if we actually get it.
Why is Miss Ada so hard to book?
Miss Ada is one of the most in-demand tables in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. Prime-time seats are claimed within seconds of release, and many never reach the public at all, so refreshing on your own rarely works.
When do Miss Ada reservations open up?
Miss Ada typically releases reservations around 09:00, and seats also reappear when other guests cancel. We watch both around the clock and grab yours the instant it opens.
