“This place has flat out the best tasting fried chicken in town. The crispness of the breadding and the delicious Ethiopian butter with its spices, is a magnificent Ethiopian fusion combo. While I wish there would be one of these in Hollywood, California where I live, I'm always making it a point to come here while being in D.C.

I highly recommend this place. Do not miss out on this delicacy in town.“

“The food was great. You receive a very good amount for the price. The young lady behind the counter was pleasant and helped by recommending dishes to try. Even the locals that were in ordering told us their favorite items on the menu. For some, the location may not be the best, but when members of the police force are also there ordering food, you can't go wrong as far as safety is concerned. We enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Not to mention, my mother found this restaurant on Food TV and kept it in her cookbook as a place to try whenever we decided to visit DC. Great selection, Mom!!!“

“Finally decided to try this place. I have to come back to try the breakfast, but the whiting fish was good. Since it was close to closing I couldn’t try all of the sides so that’s why i can’t give it 5 stars.

Went back a few months ago and was able to try the greens and macaroni and cheese. They were both delicious!“
