Went here with 2 nonvegans and we agreed to share the vegan sampler plate. It's a lot of food!! We enjoyed everything.

The most delicious Ethiopian food in Denver by far. The service is excellent. I always get the vegetarian combo because the lentils are amazing.

The food is absolutely amazing and the service is very friendly. I shared the vegetarian special and collard greens with my boyfriend and it was plenty of food for both of us. I also really enjoyed their herbal tea.

Fantastic food. My favorite style of cuisine, I have been to many Ethiopian cuisine restaurants all over including months in Ethiopia. I would return to this one instantly. Strong beer selection as well, beyond just Meta and St. George!

This was a meal that we barely spoke during because the food was so incredible we became completely engrossed in the act of eating. It was truly so delicious, the staff were so chill and kind, and I tried to Shazam every song they were playing inside. 10/10. Would eat here weekly if I lived in Denver. This meal felt like a hug.

This is THE best Ethiopian restaurant in Denver. It’s family owned, the food is so flavorful, nutritious, and family friendly. We bring out kids (ages 9, 7, and 5) all the time and they love it.
I know Colfax is torn up right now, but there is easy street parking on any of the surrounding streets. It’s well worth it.

Holy Moly! This place is incredible and so authentic. I grew up in DC which is known as the epicenter of Ethiopian food. This place is just as good as any of the places in DC and it turns out because they used to own one that my family used to frequent. Run to this place if you want delicious food.

Don’t worry about Colfax construction, there was enough parking on the side streets that it was a quick walk. Totally worth every step my wife and I took.

This seemed like a bit of a hole the wall when we first saw it from outside, turns out it’s gorgeous inside the restaurant and the food was spectacular. I will certainly be returning to get the combination platters.

This place hate to see thier own people (Ethiopian) the moment they see you they drop thier face to the floor. You are definitely not welcome.

This was the first ever Ethiopian food I have had. It was so so delicious, and super flavorful. The spices and sauces were the perfect amount of sweetness, spiciness, and saltiness. It was phenomenal!

The food is delicious and the staff are super friendly and kind. Highly recommend. Dine in if possible. Very vegan and vegetarian friendly. Quite possibly the best injera in Denver.
