I ordered a vegetarian plate TO GO and the tiny amount of vegetables were DELICIOUS. That stated the dish was to be served on injera but there was NONE included, not even on the side???Upon arrival they couldn’t locate my order. After a bit of confusion it was found. When ordering you HAD to select a side to accompany the veggie dish so I ordered rice (it tasted old, flavorless and the entire container was 80% RICE! My “side dish was the main dish.Unfortunately the lentils, greens, chickpeas, cabbage, carrots, and beets were maybe a TEASPOON sized serving DRIZZLED on top of the rice. The salad was soggy but in a part of the container by itself and the additional item in the other separate part of the container was also on top of rice.Highly disappointed because I really JUST WANTED VEGETABLES.Also, I’m assuming because I ordered it TO GO they didn’t want the injera to get soggy from the veggies sitting on top. BUT had they just stated TO GO orders do not come with the injera…I would have ordered injera as my side.I only ordered rice because I didn’t want a double portion of the same item.I really had a taste for Ethiopian food it’s one of my favorite dishes and I really wanted to try theirs.I wish I had taken some photos but I ended up making myself a salad and veggie burger, because I was still hungry after eating the little amount of flavorful vegetables they gave me…sigh.

I was highly disappointed in the vegetarian plate that was presented. All I received was frozen bag of mixed vegetable. I am so upset. There were No greens, lentils, split peas, cabbage or carrots. Nothing as presented on the menu...

After reading the previous reviews this place is obviously under new, and terrible, ownership and/or management. The pictures MUST be old because what I saw was NOTHING like the pictures. This restaurant had one dish prepared that looked days old. The employee also took out some beans when I got there that looked crusty and old and dried up. When I said I didn't want either, she brought out some cold rice and goat from the back. Both the rice and meat appeared old, but I wasn't sure and I really wanted some rice and meat. This was the 3rd restaurant I went to and the others were closed. After I paid $60 for 4 trays of cold food and took it home, it smelled spoiled the same night just 2 hours later so we were unable to eat it. Also they don't speak any English here so you better be patient in trying to figure out how to explain what you want. SO DISAPPOINTED! $60 DOWN THE DRAIN.

The food here was sooo good. Cafeteria style set up, great customer service, great portion sizes and a nice selection of foods to choose from. I was quite impressed by how good this food was, but will definitely be back.

I go here all of the time. This restaurant has a variety of choices you can choose from. A very good and flavorful assortment of vegetables and meats. You can choose these items off of the smorgasbord or you can enjoy other dishes made to order.

called about where to find thier menu online. They hung up on me after asking the question, with no answer. Assuming at first it was an accident, I called back three times. each time no answer. Seemed very rude to me. And I was excited to find a Ethiopian place closer to me as it's one of my husbands and I's favorite foods. Now I don't know if I should bother to go. Hoping they have better in person service than they do on the phone.
