Abyssinia Ethiopian Restaurant

Food was great. The staff is nice but the service is just a little slow; another waiter would be great.

Outstanding, delicious, and most striking feature of the food is how fresh and light the food is, it's not over spiced or over cooked ...it is so fresh and all the ingredients are cooked perfectly just right...not a degree over, the injera is so light and all the flavors are authentic but easily palatable and digestible ..often Ethiopian and Indian are heavily cooked and spiced.....the bright smile on the owner/chef's face will light up your day...my server was so polite and wonderful.... restaurant is decorated so nicely....just loved this place

We confirmed that the vegetarian combo platter was fully vegan (no butter in any of the dishes), and it was healthy and delicious. Highly recommend. 

This place is amazing! Saba, our server was a really nice girl. She helped me pick finalize my drink and I picked the Telba. The food was tasty and flavorful. Definitely coming back and supporting this place 💥

My partner and I went here tonight and had a great experience. We were taken care of by the waitstaff and overall this was by far one of the best experiences we've had out to eat.

Wow! If you haven’t ever tried Ethiopian food before, this is a great place to start. We ordered the veggie sampler and the meat sampler platters so that we could get a taste of each dish. I’d highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to try some of the best food on planet earth!

I’m leaving a five star for the amazing food and excellent service. Everything is made fresh and lives up to its hype. If you’ve never tried Ethiopian food, you should give it a shot.

Amazing food! First time here so we weren't sure what to order but the lady helped us out and was very welcoming. We weren't a fan of spicy food so she made sure to point out the dishes that weren't spicy! She also reccomended us 3 do a large single sharing dish and showed us how to eat it with the bread. I highly reccomend the fish, non spicy lamb, and the non spicy beef dish! Very delicious all around

This is one of the best restaurants in town. Inside it is charming and also has a very relaxing and low-key vibe. The food is going to knock your socks off. My wife and I usually share the vegetarian combo. And sometimes opt for But’echa as a delicious savory starter. I’ve also had most of the other dishes (meat ones and veg ones) over the years and they are all amazing. To top it off the service is always friendly and inviting. This is the real deal. And be prepared to add Injera to your vocabulary if it isn’t there already. Sooooo good.

What an incredible platter of food!! If you haven't eaten here I highly recommend. The fresh spices and intense flavors are indescribable. I am a huge fan of Ethiopian food and this was a real treat! Parked easily, seated immediately and served quickly. We particularly love the combination plates as we like to try all the variety it offers. The homemade cardamom tea was a perfect addition.
