About Natoli Cafe

Natoli Cafe, located in the back corner of Mango House, is a hidden gem in Denver that offers some of the best Ethiopian food on Colfax. The menu features a simple yet flavorful mix of dishes including chicken, rice, cilantro, and raisins, which bring a taste of Ethiopian flavors. The owner, Amina, serves freshly ground Ethiopian coffee with frothed steamed milk, and her hot chai and hand-roasted coffee are highly recommended. The food is prepared fresh daily using ingredients from Ethiopia. Popular dishes include the Chapati with egg and chicken curry, as well as the veggie combo with multiple lentil items, cabbage, and red beets, served with extra Injera. The tibet is flavorful and spicy, while the beef sambusa is praised as some of the best ever, reminiscent of homemade versions. The doro wot and awaze tibs are also favorites, with the tibs being creamy and perfectly spiced, and the wot slightly sweeter but still delicious. The bakery offers a delightful baklava with fragrant rose water and cardamom. Despite being in a mini mall setting, the restaurant's delicious food, great service, and inviting atmosphere make it a worthwhile visit. Open from 8 am to 8 pm, Natoli Cafe is a must-visit spot that reflects the diversity and warmth of Denver’s community.
