“I have never eaten Ethiopian food before nor have I ever been interested in eating it. Stumbled upon this restaurant when out looking for food that was not Mexican, (nothing wrong with Mexican food. I love Mexican food but just wanted something else). I had no idea what to expect. So glad we stumbled across it. It was so good. If we were here for more than one night, I would definitely return. The staff were awesome. So friendly and welcoming. The food was so good and opened my eyes, (and stomach), to a new cuisine. The price was very reasonable. Do not let the empty restaurant put you off. Definitely worth a visit.“

“BEST DELICIOUS DISHES!!“

“Ok, atmosphere is not really 5 star I know. But I wanted to post a 5-star review for a perfect service - meal - price - experience.

We just had a meal tonight that was exactly what I would hope from an Ethiopian restaurant. The owner was running the place alone, but within 10’ of our order was able to bring out a family style platter with two vegetarian combinations, a lamb dish, and a beautifully spiced chicken Doro wat for 4 of us. We each added an Ethiopian beer, super cold and refreshing.“

“There were only couple of people taking care of the orders. Service was a huge let down. Had to make requests for couple of things multiple times. But the food was amazing and my group loved it. I wish the service matched the awesome food they serve.“
