Absolute must. I got the half beef and half veggie. It was an absurd amount of food and reasonably priced. Some of the best Ethiopian food of hot. Bring a big appetite. They were super fast. I'd absolutely recommend this.

My server helped me look through the menu which was super helpful since this was my first time trying Ethiopian food. She recommended the Shiro which wasn’t too spicy and I loved it. If you do like spicy food, it comes served with jalapeños so you can adjust that. I did notice it was a much smaller portion than the Misir my friend ordered, but still plenty of food.

The Begtibs need improvement. The kitfo was the best I ate in Minnesota. The tea need spices it wasn't warm enough. The coffee was the best. There was only one server and the restaurant is busy. Speed serving is very important.
