Alem's Coffee offers a delightful dining experience with a variety of tasty and affordable options. Their shihan ful breakfast is a customer favorite, and the tuna sandwich is also highly praised. The restaurant features a clean, friendly atmosphere that creates a welcoming environment, making it a popular spot for the local Eritrean community. It has a more hole-in-the-wall, breakfast-focused vibe compared to many other Eritrean/Ethiopian restaurants, catering more to single servings rather than large platters. The food, including ful and fit fit, is prepared quickly and tastes homey and delicious. The yogurt pairing with fit fit adds a soothing, cooling touch that balances the spices. While many visit for coffee or a casual place to work, the authentic atmosphere and connection to the local community make it a unique and enjoyable place to spend time. The spiced tea, infused with cinnamon, clove, and cardamom, remains a flavorful highlight.
