This is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. So thankful to have them here in Colorado Springs. This was our third time visiting and I have not been disappointed at all. There is so much flavor in every bite. Tonight we had awaze lamb tibs, chicken tibs, dry beef tibs, key wot, gomen wat and ater alicha. We also had the Ethiopian coffee. I recommend all of it!

Kid-friendliness: There is an outdoor game area where our kids enjoy playing while we wait...

This restaurant is absolutely wonderful in every aspect. The service, the atmosphere, the food ALL 10/10. I recently took my friends (who have never eaten Ethiopian food) and we were all blown away. We got the veggie platter, pictured below, and the lamb tibs. Soooo good. I will absolutely be going back!
