Delicious, fluffy injera with the perfect hint of sourness. We’ve visited twice and were not disappointed. The beef tartar was outstanding, and the hummus with injera was amazing. Other meat dishes were also excellent. The Shiro was decent, though a bit on the salty side. Coffee was nice and very reasonably priced. Overall, a place we’d love to keep coming back to. Street parking is not difficult to find in the back of the restaurant.

I think this place is trying to avoid spices, because the food was missing those characteristic Ethiopian spices, and the injera didn't have that characteristic sour undertone. I do think it was tasty, I just wouldn't choose to go back for a while because there are so many other choices on Telegraph

Sorry, I didn't have time to take a picture because we ate it so quickly! We got veggie combos and a fish sandwich. Everything was exceptional! Not too heavy or greasy, not too spicy--the most heat-sensitive member of the family was happy--and there was a great variety in the combo. I think the combo had 7 different dishes in it. The hummus, red lentils, and greens can be had as individual dishes if you don't want the combo but we will probably stick with the combo in the future. The portions are large; these 3 dishes fed all 5 of us with a little left over. Great prices, too! A vegetarian or vegan would be quite happy here. We didn't try the meat dishes other than the very large fish sandwich. The service was attentive and quick. We are all looking forward to coming back!

Everything about this place was exceptional—the ambiance, the service, and most importantly, the food. Every dish was perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. Truly a memorable dining experience

It's a great destination if you're looking for an Ethiopian and Eritrean dish. The hospitality is at the top level and the cuisine is so yummy.
What a great little spot. I had the lamb tibs, wife had chicken stew, and we shared hummus. Everything was so flavorful, and the people just make this a must stop.
Delicious food and very nice service,

Best Eritrean food in Oakland, hands-down.
