Must Go!

We accidently found Ada's one day on our first trip to Chicago. We now make it a point to go there every time we are in town. Their food is the best, service is good also. Nothing fancy, or trendy, just an old fashion deli with some of the best kosher food to be found anywhere. Took some friends from New York there who tried to tell me there was NO pastrami better than what they got in NY. They loved it as well.

Went on previous reviews. Got a corned beef/rye/mustard. I was very disappointed. The cut and taste of the meat was funny. The pickle tasted bad and the coleslaw had to much of some spice. Quantity was good. Price was inline for the size and being downtown. Just not my cup of tea.

Sweet and sour cabbage soup is a must try.
