“Small chef run restaurant where the owner/chef remembers you and tweaks the dishes to your taste buds. Always a great dining experience. Nothing fancy but amazingly great tasting food. Ask for the hot sauce! Layers and layers of fiery flavor in it.“

“Massawa Restaurant is such a hidden gem. I came here on a date with my boyfriend and we had an amazing experience from start to finish.

I ordered the lamb tibbs and my boyfriend had the chicken doro wat. Both dishes were absolutely delicious, full of flavor, and the portions were very generous.

The atmosphere was warm, vibrant, and inviting, which made the whole evening feel relaxed and special. I’ve been looking for a great Ethiopian restaurant around the Vancouver area, and this place truly exceeded my expectations.

What really stood out was how the owner/chef personally went around the restaurant, greeting guests and asking how everyone was enjoying their food. That level of care made the experience feel very personal.

Highly recommend. We’ll definitely be back!“
