“Excellent flavor and the injera was on point! The owner was very kind and courteous. Definitely recommend dining there :).“

“This place is one of my favorites on the East Coast! We travel through Atlanta with our dog and often can't leave him in the car due to the heat. Eating at Bahel Ethiopian Restaurant is perfect for him. Luckily for us, the food is delicious and has been the last three times we've eaten here. No nonsense, delicious fare. I dream about the Kitfo from here. Everything we've had has been delicious. The staff is kind and competent. Highly recommended!“

“Excellent food and really nice, friendly, and attentive staff. The place has regular tables and booths, bit also traditional Ethiopian small tables for those who like to share their food. Several big screen TVs add a relaxed atmosphere. The only suggestion I’d have is to expand the wine and other drinks selection, adding wines such as Sheeba’s Tej hiney wine that would add the traditional dining experience.“

“An exceptional dining experience that exceeded every expectation. The food was masterfully prepared, rich in flavor, and presented with absolute precision. You can immediately tell that this kitchen operates with true professionalism and passion. The service was flawless—attentive, welcoming, and genuinely impressive. Every detail, from the atmosphere to the execution of each dish, was top‑tier. This restaurant doesn’t just serve great food; it delivers a complete, high‑class experience. Highly recommended.“

“Best Ethiopian food in Atlanta! I’ve tried other restaurants and the dishes from Abol are consistently better (both in portion size and taste). My personal favorites are the Shiro and veggie platter. They accommodate vegan restrictions, too ♥️“

“Great food. Should add Ethiopian beverages and dim lights.“

“Delicious. I got the veggie plate, which was 11.95 for 4 side veggies and a piece of corn (pancake?). The cabbage, green beans and collared greens were cooked well and flavorful. All different textures to compliment the veggies. The mac and cheese was baked and comforting.

Tough for me was that everything was boxed in Styrofoam, including their drinks. They helped refill my water bottle, but only if they handed me a Styrofoam cup. Technically, these are better choices than the polypropylene black boxes other vendors are using since neither can be recycled.“

“Beautiful space, bathroom is super clean. The decorations feel like home. THE FOOD IS THE BEST IN ATLANTA!!!! Tastes made from the heart, love in every bite. Dessert and cookies are incredible too. Honestly grateful I came to this spot. 100/10 AMAZING 😍🤤“

“Great food and great service.“

“Great vegan options....the best Ethiopian food anywhere!“

“What a great experience at Biruk Kana! The atmosphere is welcoming and the food is amazing! The owner is kind and engaging. We ordered the veggie combo. Leave plenty of time to sample this super varied and flavorful dish which was generously portioned, easily feeding two. Owner Biruk made sure we were OK and was happy to share information about her food and culture with us. There's even an Ethiopian coffee ceremony room. We've got to return and try the coffee! Highly recommended!“

“I love Wehemia. It feels like home every time I go, warm, welcoming, and genuine. The food is always amazing, made with real care. You can tell they put heart into everything they do. There’s a reason it’s been named one of the best restaurants in Atlanta multiple times, a special place all around“

“Delicious!! I'm a new fan of the cuisine! I was skeptical at first but pleasantly surprised!“

“We arrived at this restaurant for a meeting. my friend recommended this restaurant. Well, it was very nice. the staff were so friendly and we felt excellent. The food was just great. We loved this place very much and we will definitely return to this restaurant. we highly recommend this place.“

“Every bite is great!

My plate (built for 2) consisted of tibs, misir, and my absolute fave from Prima - gomen be siga (I'll drive for gomen be siga and Prima never disappoints)

Prices are very good for a plate for 2 (or a meal the next day cuz I didn't hafta share ).

Evening meal all'aperto with red wine was delightful; the owners are VERY hospitable.

Great meal!“

“You will not get a more authentic level of cuisine and atmosphere in any of the Ethiopian restaurants in the southeast!!!“
