The owner/manager has no respect for his employees. He treats them like shi*

I stop by to have a coffee and I ordered cake but the cake was not fresh. It was not done on the same day..Hope you will disclose in the future. If it is not done on the same day.

Never ordering again. I ordered online. I paid extra for Ethiopian Injera but I got small amount of injera from here. I ordered Shiro as a side dish and didn't get that. One of the side dish I chose, I was told is not available anymore but it is on their menu. The tibs was a couple of meats and full of onion. I called the restaurant and I was told 'when you order next time, let us know'....I will never order from Leesac

I was craving for kitfo and stopped by lessac hoping I’d get a tasty kitfo with large portion, however, to my disappointment, the portion is way too small especially as compared to other Ethiopian restaurants, and the taste is mediocre as well not to mention the bad service where they don’t check on you or get your stuff timely. I usually ordered goden tibs since way back as it’s a tasty meal with large portion.

They provide the badest badest service but expect the best Tip. The food is terrible. Don't recommended to anyone.

Loved everything about this place. Met owner, and he made sure everything was to my liking. I've done custom service for over a decade, and I would give him A1.

Vegetarian options: Umm, ? can't wait to go back

The server manually added a 20% tip as a custom line item on the bill. When I asked about it I was told they add a 20% minimum tip and it’s mandatory. She then showed me other examples of bills BUT these had an option of selecting 20%, 25% or 30%. I asked why I didn’t receive a bill where I could select the amount I want. She was very annoyed and insisted that 20% was mandatory. (I usually always tip 20% or more but it doesn’t seem right to manually add it on the bill). Then when she finally gave me a new bill without the service charge I realized the examples bills she had showed me are printed after you pay. That means the restaurant adds 20% to the bill then after you pay you still see an option to tip on top of that (which many people did because they probably didn’t see the service charge).

It should be very clear that all meals comes with a mandatory 20% service charge and they should leave the option to tip on top unless it’s clear. It feels scammy

Five star all the way. Veggie Combo is supper at this restaurant. All of their food is good with some exceptional recommendations ?.Try their breakfast combo(vegetarian and non-vegetarian option), veggie Combo, spaghetti ? ?, and Firfir(vegetarian and non-vegetarian option).I can't say enough about the cake at this place. By far it's the most authentic and delicious cake in any given restaurant in the city, county, state....Customer service is super. Very friendly patronsHIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Though Lesaac's food is good, service was not that much invitive. Once dubbed a great place, now the business needs renovation and remodeling. In terms of impression - furniture fixtures and atmosphere. Menu is a bit confusing and service gap due to lack of server shortages.

I had the most frustrating experience at Lesaac Ethiopian Cafe. Not only did they mess up my order without even consulting me, but their refusal to correct their mistake and their arrogant attitude made the whole situation even worse. Avoid this place if you value your time and sanity!"
