Ethiopian Restaurants in Calgary, AB

“All around amazing food and friendly service.“

“Since Marathon closed, I have been looking for a good Ethiopian restaurant. Habesha fits the criteria and then some. Generous portions and good service with a reasonable price means this restaurant has the perfect trifecta for food. It is well worth the trip.“

“Delicious food“

“Abyssinia Restaurant is a welcome addition to Calgary's diverse culinary landscape, offering a truly authentic taste of Ethiopian and Eritrean cuisine. The vibrant and inviting atmosphere instantly transports you to East Africa, with traditional decor and the enticing aroma of exotic spices.

The menu boasts a delightful array of dishes, from hearty stews like Doro Wat (chicken simmered in a rich berbere sauce) to vegetarian options like Miser Wot (red lentils in a spicy sauce). Each dish is beautifully presented on injera, a spongy flatbread that serves as both plate and utensil.

The injera is made fresh in-house, adding another layer of authenticity to the dining experience.
The service at Abyssinia is warm and welcoming, with the staff eager to guide you through the menu and explain the nuances of each dish.

Whether you're a seasoned adventurer in the world of Ethiopian cuisine or a curious newcomer, Abyssinia Restaurant promises a memorable and delicious experience.“

“Great place to enjoy new friendships and every one are great there“

“This restaurant is a total hidden gem!! Amazing food and customer service. She served us a customized Vegetable, Beef and Lamb platter and we added Tbsi. The blend of spice was so perfect and flavourful. Hdmona is by far the BEST and the most traditional Eritrean Food in Calgary. We were impressed about how tasty everything was!!!! Our favourite was Lamb Tibbs and Spinach. Highly recommend and super addictive! Next time I want to try Beef Tbsi and Chicken;-)“
