It didn’t look like much when we pulled up and walked inside. We got the combo with non spicy tibs for 2-3. It was a packed house , which is always a good sign. The food came out quickly, ~15 minutes. The food was generously portioned, we were offered more bread. It was spicy and each item offered its own unique flavors. I’d absolutely eat there again!

The Doro Wot plate was so delicious, perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The unique spyce flavor is amazing. The prices are reasonable and Mr Tamrat (Owner) treated me like family. I highly recommend First Cup Ethiopian Restaurant to anyone looking for a great Ethiopian Food or coffee.

I stopped at this restaurant mainly because it was the closest Ethiopian restaurant to the hotel I was staying at. I am an Ethiopian and I can tell a good Ethiopian food when I taste one. My freind and I ordered a combination dish and the food was excellent. Their espresso machine was broken, so I couldn't try their coffee.
