A friend and I shared the veg platter and left satisfied. Each component was delicious, but I especially loved the injera and greens. It was quiet on a Friday evening; the food came out quickly, and the service was good. As an extra seal of approval, my friend, who is Ethiopian, mentioned several times that this is now her favorite Ethiopian spot in San Diego. I look forward to visiting again.

Great spot we've been coming back to. Delicious food, nice people, presentation, well priced. We usually get some meat dish with a veggie combo, take home some leftovers. We love it and will keep coming back.

As a habesha person this place is legit. The food reminded me of home and the service is excellent. The quiet music in the background and the art in the restaurant are vibes. I ordered the veggie combo and the tibs and it was 10/10.

Say it with me
DEL-LISH-OUS

I have frequent this authentic Ethiopian Restaurant during the past few years of living in San Diego, and I still can't get enough!. Food quality, presentation and of course the most important, TASTE!

The owners are truly blessings to the community. Upon entry, the restaurant has a museum like feel, highlighting great Ethiopians and art from the culture

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND stopping by for a taste for any occasion!
Ask for the Honey wine!

The food at the Red Sea Ethiopian restaurant is amazing! We had the combination plates with 3 meats and 4 veggie dishes. We couldn’t decide which one we liked best because they were all so good. It is rated as a top notch restaurant & I can confirm that these highest reviews are accurate.
