Ethiopian Restaurants near San Francisco, CA

“Loved every bite of the food and appreciated all that Injera.“

“Hidden gem! We were craving some beef stew and happened upon this spot. Wow did it blow us away! We also got the lentil stew which had incredible flavor. It's served on a big plate of injera (ethiopian bread), which soaks up the stew and tastes incredible at the end of the meal. Will be back“

“Loved the ambiance and the food.
Ethiopian food remains my favorite for its simplicity and letting the ingredients shine. And any time there is collard greens on the menu, you can’t go wrong.
I tried the flaxseed drink as well and would highly recommend that.
I’d like to go back and get some breakfast and also try some coffee“

“This is the finest neighborhood venue, great atmosphere, great service, excellent bar, Good Food 👌“

“A work friend picked this place and for the other four of us, it was our first time having Ethiopian food. What a delightful meal! It’s served family style and you eat by tearing off a piece of Injera, a unique type of bread, that’s bubbly like a sponge combined with a crepe, and grab at the beef, lamb, or chicken Tibs we ordered. We also got some Saramussu (I’m sure I spelled that wrong!) and something else that began with an F (firfir?). The food is flavorful and robust without being spicy hot (but I’m sure they’ll make it hot if that’s your thing). The owner is very friendly, helped us decide, explained things to us, seemed to care and really want us to enjoy ourselves. Highly recommend this place!“

“I really enjoyed my meal there last night. Ordered the vegan combo with the gluten-free teff injeera. The only thing I had to send back were the side order of mushrooms. I requested little or no oil and the dish was drowning in oil. They took it back, no problem and removed the item from my bill. I will go back!“

“Excellent Sunday vibe good music and good food“

“Eskender and his team bring a full menu of flavors from his native Ethiopia to 3rd St. in Bayview. During COVID, you can get his outstanding dishes on Tuesdays only from 12-3pm. Order online and pick-up by 3. The “family pack” pictured features 5 entrees, soup, salad as well as a bonus dessert and sauce for $50 (no substitutions). The food travels and reheats well so it literally can feed you for a week.“

“This Ethiopian Restaurant has been our family fave across 4 generations💚 Over the years: my grandma, my father, me, and my son…we dine and we bring friends! Highly recommend the restaurant and check out their partner Brundo Spice Company—spices and retail items available at the restaurant as well. The marvelous new location on San Pablo Ave. is vibrant, spacious, and inviting✨ Try the Vegetarian Sampler with extra Injera, followed by a Traditional Ethiopian Coffee Latte and dreamy Tiramisu. Sheer divinity!💗“
