Business on the front. Party in the back. There is a hidden room in the back for Eritrean men to play pool and hang out. The food is good quality and cooked to perfection by the women behind the window. The Beef Tibs is so fresh and so tasty. Lamb Tibs, Shiro, Tibs Firfir, Kikil, Tsebhi Derho (Doro Wat) are great to order as well and try the taste Eritrea 🇪🇷 The injera bread it’s great too.

I tried 5 Star Cafe out for dinner. I wasn’t disappointed w/ my choice. I ordered keywot with rice. Normally you would eat it with injera I just wasn’t in the mood for that this time around. It was really flavorful & I’ll definitely order it again thanks to this first positive experience.

I have never had Coffee as good as the Five Star Cafe's. I mean you're not realky getting good coffee from places like starbucks or caribou compared to them. I was able to work on my music and be moee focused than I've been for a very long time! The service was great too, very fast not thay they needed to be, because the art on the coffee was very nice as well. I haven't gotten their coffee out of my head yet haha and I plan on going there whenever I have...
