Came here on Valentine’s Day and had Ethiopian food for the first time. It was DELICIOUS. The seasoning was so incredible and the staff was helpful in figuring out what we should order. I will def eat here again. I highly recommend!!

We were very disappointed to learn that, although Ethiopic is participating in Restaurant Week, they require everyone at the table to order from the 4-course menu with just one beef and one vegetarian option. Because the vegetarian member of our group did not want the Restaurant Week option offered, the rest of us were not permitted to order from that menu. This requirement was not disclosed on Ethiopic's website, menu or Facebook post. We felt like it was a bait & switch to get us into the restaurant. The food itself is tasty, but the portions are small. With all hard surfaces and no sound buffering elements, the restaurant is so noisy that conversation was very difficult. Based upon this experience, we would not return to Ethiopic.

The food was delicious and our server, Beza was great! We had the sampler and the appetizer which was plenty for two people. The atmosphere in the restaurant was beautiful as well.

I’ve been coming here for years however there’s been an obvious change in the kitchen. It went from great to amazing! There are some trade-offs—the lamb tips were better before, but just about everything else is better now.

I love coming here and supporting these folks. The food is so tasty and authentic. My wife who is usually picky loved all the different items on the vegetarian sampler and the Tibs are fantastic. Ethiopian cuisine really flies under the radar, and it was a great date night for us. Highly reccomend!

The atmosphere and aesthetic of the restaurant was phenomenal. The artwork was beautiful and the lighting set the mood. That was our time trying Ethiopian food and Beza was too kind to recommend the Lamb Tibbs and Vegetarian Sampler. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and would recommend to friends!
