After being completely annoyed with a glitch in the ordering app (not the restaurants fault) the manager reached out and went above and beyond to make me happy. Food is amazing!

I walked into the Maple Grove location today and from start to finish I was welcomed and taken care of!! The owner explained not only the different choices I could make based on what’s popular and personal preference but also how to enjoy it! First time injera user and now I don’t wanna use a fork again. Dora Wat was extremely flavorful and fresh. He let me try their lamb stew and it was a 12/10!! I also had their Kategna on his recommendation and it was fabulous. I will be back! Thank you so much!

Kind of an odd restaurant but love the food. My son and daughter-in-law love this place but my wife does not into Ethiopian food so she won't try it anymore. But I love it.

My cousin and I went to this place to have lunch and it was not good. Food had no taste and was poorly seasoned! Some of the items were overcooked which became mushy. The only thing that was satisfying was the injera. Service was mid and I would never go back to eat this food. Other Ethiopian spots are more satisfying. Do better Bole.

My friend and I had lunch at this place and we both got food poisoning. The entire floor was dirty, and the bathroom was disgustingly grubby with a terrible stench. The high prices and poor-quality food they serve are unacceptable. I will never go back.

Delicious cuisine! Everything was unique, rich and complex. Service was great even during a full house. Great Ethiopian jazz completes the nice atmosphere. As if that is not enough, they went out of their way to get our lost keys to us days later!

I had the Awaze tibs, which they describe as a beef stew. It was very spicy and wonderful. I also ordered injera and ater kik. The quality of the food was excellent, as were the service and atmosphere. I will definitely be coming back.
