My goodness! I am full and have a full second meal boxed to go. I ordered the Alfredo with chicken and got a huge plate of spaghetti with some of the most deliciously soft and perfectly cooked chicken. I cannot explain the sauces but on the chicken and tasty red sauce on the pasta other balanced and yummy. Cannot wait to return and have the nafago.

We got the Ethiopian Conjero and Beef Stew, all the food was incredible and they give you such an amazing amount thats greater than the price. If I lived in Minneapolis I would be here every single day for a plate! On top of the great food the service was equally incredible, super friendly and welcoming they made the experience!

I’ve eaten here twice now, and both times the food and service have been incredible! The menu is varied, and everything i’ve tried is great! The people who run it are very kind and knowledgeable about what they have, I totally recommend this place!
