I am so full of South African food and joy! I am a huge fan of anything you want to give me on injera and the owners did a phenomenal job of showcasing all of my favorites. I ordered a vegetarian sampler for 1 and it was an extremely generous serving. The injera was SO soft, warm, and fresh. I ordered extra because I always love it so much, but they gave my plenty with the meal and I probably didn't even need to order more. The owners were beyond kind and the wife helped...
I was visiting Portland for the African Festival event, and decided that I would extend my African experience beforehand by eating lunch at the Red Sea Restaurant. It's a small, welcoming place, and the staff are very friendly. I felt welcomed to experience Ethiopian and Eritrean culture through their food. The food is served without silverware, although you can ask for silverware if needed. I ordered what are vegetarian options: Fava ful and Red lentil stew...very tasty....

Zigni was also really soft and the meat just came apart in the mouth. The sauce also was seasoned very well.
