First time having Ethiopian food. Loved everything about it. Had only vegetarian options but im definitely returning to try some meat dishes.
First time trying Ethiopian and this was the most delicious and flavorful meal!!!!!!
it is just a simple restaurant with four or five tables but the food was excellent! we were the only people there at the time so the service was great lol

This place is modest in its curb appeal and outrageously good in its service and flavor. It is a small little building that is almost secret-like, directly next door to Denny's. A little store is in front with ethnic types of snacks, and the restaurant is in the back. The space is small and intimate, almost reminding you of someone's home. You can see the chef cooking and smell the amazing aromas. The injera (injera) was really good. Customers enjoy eating Ethiopian style, which means sharing a platter and eating with your fingers, using pieces of injera to pick up the food, but forks are happily brought for children to eat their spaghetti. Highly recommended are the beef option and the lentils, as well as the veggie sampler and a spicy beef tomato dish. The food was so good that customers ate until they were stuffed, supporting this mom and pop establishment.
