Asmara Cafe/restaurant

I went to this cafe restaurant as part of a Meetup with an international group. There were 13 of us and the owner, Jordan, is also the chef so I am impressed with how she was able to serve our group efficiently on her own! Her daughter was the waitress and patient with all of us. I ordered the fish sandwich, that was so delicious! The tilapia fish and potato slices were both warm, the bread was toasted, and the veggies fresh. Portion is generous and price is decent. Was lovely to meet the owner when she introduced herself to our group, and you can tell she works hard living her dream of opening this East African cuisine restaurant.

Wonderful customer service and good food!!

Me and my family enjoyed our visit to this little coffee. I absolutely recommend, if you want to enjoy authentic experience of a little travel to the horn of Africa.

Kid-friendly and still upscale.

We really enjoyed the food here. I got the egg sandwich and it was exceptional, so well seasoned. My wife got the fava bean dish, which was also so good. Freshly made food with very attentive service. Definitely worth the visit.

Excellent experience... The owner is so nice what a great place. I only tried two items on my first visit. The breakfast sandwich was a nice size and delicious. The cappuccino was so good. You can take out or eat in.

The food here is so amazing, and the pricing is beyond reasonable. The egg sandwich? Life changing! I have been thinking about it all day since my visit. The sambusas are also so good as well as their cappuccino. The service was also great. The lady was so sweet and attentive and kept checking in on us. I will definitely stop by anytime I find myself in San Diego.

This egg sandwich has to be one of the best I've had. It was fresh and tasty. Bread was soft but with a crispy top... Yummy. The balsamic lemon drizzle she makes from scratch. It is delicious! The sandwich wasn't heavy on the tummy. Cappuccino was delightful. Tried the beef sambusas...crispy and meat well seasoned. The woman was so friendly and cheerful. Definitely recommend trying this place.

Great food for the price, I ordered an egg sandwich and it was delicious
