Ethiopian Restaurants near Clarkston, GA

“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!“

“Met 5 friends here for lunch on Monday based on recommendation of one couple. We were all so pleased. The owner was gracious and informative, offering suggestions to those of us unfamiliar with the cuisine.
We shared dishes of Vegetable Combos, Awaze Tibs and another less spicy meat dish. We scraped our plates clean. We have converted some wary friends to this style of eating.
Friendly, clean, and well decorated business establishment. We were all charmed by the owner!“

“Just went here for the first time while visiting Atlanta. The food was delicious and very fairly priced for the high quality - my family and I loved the veggie combo. Service was absolutely top-notch. So welcoming and generous. Having lived in Ethiopia, we know authentic food and this was it. The injera was excellent. Ignore the rough parking lot and the hole-in-the-wall appearance: I’d definitely recommend this place.“

“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 😍🤤“

“This place is a STAPLE!!! The food is annoyingly good (I literally was SO full and was still taking little bites), and the service was amazing!!! Please stop by and get the Meat Lovers with Lamb, Chicken, and Ribeye. Oh, and get the Lemon Cake! You’re welcome :)“

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

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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“

“The best food every and great hospitality“

“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 ♥️“

“The food is so amazing and the owner is very kind and respectful.“

“I needed a last-minute cake, something special, and most bakeries close early. So I headed over to the Queen of Sheba, which google maps promised would have cakes until 8. But they didn't have the flavor requested! Disaster. A customer said tiramisu was a house specialty, and the young lady behind the counter agreed that it was her favorite. Even though tiramisu is a gamble with a new crowd, I went for it. It was one of the most delicious, perfect cakes I've ever had. That any of us had ever had. It's what all other tiramisu wishes it could be. Good price, too. I 100% will get my next cake there.“

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

“Go for Stone Mountain, and stay for Ethiopian coffee and stews.

Honestly, I came to the area to pick up some furniture across the street for my 3yo... but this drive is worth the 30-minute drive.

In my experience, Ethiopian food is always cooked fresh... so everything takes at least 20 minutes to make. Luckily tigi made me a sambusa for free to munch on as I waited.

The beef stew was amazing, the injera was cooked fresh and perfect, and the coffee came with natural gum on hot charcoal which acts as an incense that smells a bit like eucalyptus.

Tigi is a gem.

Don't forget though that this is a catering service that has a food truck! Weddings, birthdays, christenings... don't worry, she can easily handle 300 people at a time.“

“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!“

“Visited June 6, 2026.

Overall, we had a positive experience.

Parking is shared with other businesses in the plaza, but there are plenty of spaces available, including room for larger vehicles and tractor trailers.

When we first arrived, one of the employees seemed a bit intense. He encouraged us to take our time looking over the menu, but remained nearby while we reviewed our options. My friend also felt somewhat rushed while placing an order. As the visit continued, the atmosphere became more relaxed and the service felt more comfortable.

The portions were extremely generous. We ordered the goat with chapati, which reminded us of roti, and two people were able to share it and leave satisfied. We also shared the king fish with rice, which was very good and still provided leftovers. Another member of our group ordered the tibis with spaghetti, and that portion was large enough to take some home as well. Although the menu described the tibis as spicy, we found it to be fairly mild.

The food was flavorful, the portion sizes offered excellent value, and there was plenty of seating available. While the service could have been warmer at the beginning of our visit, the quality of the food and the generous portions made for an enjoyable dining experience overall.“

“Very pleased with the service from Lele our waitress and the overall experience. The food is flavorful and what I expected from an Ethiopian restaurant!“

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