Jackson Stamper, Chef

Jackson Stamper is the Chef de Cuisine at Ada's. Two decades of experience in the restaurant and bar industry have given Stamper an uncommon level of experience in a variety of locales, from his native Orlando to Philadelphia, New Jersey, and New York City, where he was Executive Chef at the legendary Employees Only, and finally Las Vegas, where he made his mark at The Kitchen at Atomic before jumping at the opportunity to work with Chef James Trees at Ada's.

Stamper continues to expand the menu at Ada's and push culinary endeavors forward with thoughtful and seasonal dishes like his grilled maitake mushrooms with miso fondue, brown rice vinaigrette, and a taleggio tart with sour cherry, to name just a few. All while working alongside "Wine Goddess" and Master Sommelier Kat Thomas, whose acclaimed wine program has won awards of its own, such as the 2026 James Beard Semi-Finalist nomination for Outstanding Wine and Other Beverages Program. Stamper and team are focused on making Ada's feel like a neighborhood spot for locals while also being a top off-Strip culinary destination.
