Title: Ada Restaurant - Sovalye Island
Post by: Rimms on October 05, 2013, 19:49:49 PM
Is really wonderful, their menu is well thought out and the food is absolutely top notch. Tonight I had grilled calamari to start, it was light and fresh and the main course steak dish was definitely the best I've had here and the presentation of the food is nothing less than beautiful.

It's so peaceful over there, no cars, scooters or people really and the sunset from their restaurant terrace is amazing.

It's not the cheapest place you will eat at here but considering the quality, location and the speedboat transfer, it's in our opinion amazing value for money.

when we had a boat trip in september we were on a boat trip and went up to the restaurant and spoke to the owner and they gave us a phone number to ring up and book
it looked really nice on our list for next holiday

The starters are around the 20 to 30 lira range and the mains are 45 to 50. There are more expensive choices if your feeling flush. Beer is 12 and a nice bottle of wine is 45tl. There is no extra charge for the speedboat

Don't try to book by emailing. We made this mistake, as I said in another posting.  We emailed and asked to book for Friday evening (this was on Monday).  We heard nothing back.   On Friday we were in a restaurant and my husband had an email.  It was 7.30pm.  The email was from the Ada and said they where waiting for us at the Sat.  My husband emailed back to say as we had no confirmation from them, we where eating elsewhere.  They emailed back immediately to say "See you next Time"
So, best advice is to ring them.  They, like a lot of other restaurants/hotels don't really do "Emailing"

We had another lovely meal at the Ada tonight, there is something magical about being picked up for dinner by a speedboat, 40 years ago and in my wildest dreams, I could not have imagined it.

Tonight we wandered around the island, there are some beautiful houses there and some in serious need of some TLC.  It gave me hope that maybe one day.....,

The food, again was a delight, watching Calis light up was so magical and as I sat there enjoying my double espresso and 7 star Metaxa at the end of our meal, I heard this little voice in my head and it said ......................... Can I Guess Your Weight !

It isn't H. The menu is double sided.

Thanks George, yes H it is double sided menu, I had 4 pages copied altogether but deleted them I think. We'll check if they're on the memory stick. That was more or less the day menu.

We agree about the boat, we were film stars for about 5 minutes! It's an absolute MUST DO. If we don't use it well lose it. He needs more visitors to keep it running. Ok it's a little bit more expensive but the free speed boat ride more than makes up for it. Its a marvellous treat for those special occasions too.  ;D  ;)

This is definitely on our list for next year - but I will be keeping it a surprise from the rest of the family until the speedboat comes to pick us up!!  Something a bit different   :)

I was banging on about Ada Restaurant (namely the great pide they do) and Solvalye in general in another thread somewhere.

I've also uploaded my first ever Youtube video! It's a 3-minute clip of the speedboat trip on the way over to give you an idea of what it's like (in short, it is FUN)

Thanks for sharing this villain - I can't wait to show the kids. They loved it. We went over with Anne & Billy on our second night - and the speedboat, setting and food make it very special indeed. The speedboat just turns it from a great night out into a real experience not to be forgotten.

OK, without wishing to bore anyone, here's another 30 second clip from the day we visited, which I wanted others to see purely for the expression of sheer delight on my little boys face as we blasted across the water,

I promise to leave you all alone, now.
