The Red Sea Restaurant offers delicious, homemade food in a warm and welcoming environment. The veggie platter is a popular choice, featuring a generous and delicious selection. The lentil sambusa and the drumsticks are standout dishes, with the spice in the food being particularly notable. The restaurant is small and family-owned, with a hole-in-the-wall vibe. The owners and their daughter are friendly and engaging, which enhances the dining experience. The restaurant has managed to survive the pandemic, and portion sizes are generous. Located near public parking, it makes finding a spot easier. The ambiance is simple but clean and well-maintained. Customers appreciate the authentic Ethiopian and Eritrean culture experienced through the food, served without silverware, although silverware can be requested. Popular dishes include the Fava ful and Red lentil stew, with options for more or less spice. The coffee is highly recommended, known for its exquisite taste and thoughtful preparation. Overall, the Red Sea Restaurant provides an excellent dining experience with its high-quality, authentic cuisine, and the care and love in every bite ensure that no one leaves unsatisfied.
