“Amazing flavor and service“

“Bersi is the best cook in town“

“The food was phenomenal, we had the timatim as an appetizer followed by the meat and vegetarian combos. Every bite was packed with so much flavor! The service was great, the atmosphere cozy, and the music was so good; I definitely have some new music to explore. Highly recommend this place :)“

“Incredible restaurant with delicious options for everyone, including vegetarian/vegan. The lentil dishes were my absolute favorite. So much flavor and quite hearty when ordering the platters. Great service here too, servers are attentive and kind. Drinks were a hit, with options for everyone from cocktails to wine/beer. Very good, will be back again and again.“

“As soon as you walk in the aromas of the African spices hit your nose n boy is it incredible! Ingrid was our lovely server. She recommended the BASIL INSTINCT: which was the best drink I’ve had all year. For appetizer, my bestie (who previously visited) recommended the KITFO SAMBUSA which literally tasted like ground beef but somehow it wasn’t lol. How do they do that? By far, the best dish was my bestie’s dish: SHASHAMANE BOWL. It was so good that I ordered a plate to go. This is the way vegetables are supposed to taste like! I promise you that you won’t miss the meat with this one! Jam packed with flava! Owner of Ras please consider opening a location in westchester. 🙏🏼 We need more vegan options over here. ❤️ Thanks guys! Until next time.“

“One feeds two, even if they insist it doesn't, it does. Yeeeet if you order the family style you do get more diversify. Had the meat and vegetables, great! Their lentil samosas were also pretty good. Also I really liked their ethiopian wine, in my opinion it was like a thick wine with an after taste of beer“

“Mmmmmm, new Ethiopian in the 'hood!

With affordable prices (most dishes in the $20s and combs in the $30s) and plenty of flavor, Awaze will do just nicely in the area while offering slightly newer, more modern digs than its competition.

Over a catch-up lunch, my friends and I munched on the Awaze Veggie Combo for two, which offered loads of string beans, red lentils, collard green, chickpeas, cabbage, split peas and beetroot. We paired that with the Meat Combo for two, which came with doro wot, tibs, yesiga alicha, and two side veggies (we added more cabbage and collard greens).

Fun fact: Their combos for two can easily feed 2-4 people total. So enjoy those savings.

Also, we tacked on kitfo, our favorite Ethiopian meat dish. Don't know if it was because they were feeling generous or if we just won them over with all our gushing, but I feel like we were served an extra big, extra flavorful serving of it. Uncooked cow.....drool!

Some of us washed down our flavorful lunch with their Spiced Tea, which was bursting with cloves and cardamom.

Will definitely be back.“

“Amazing food; I have been to many Ethiopian restaurants all across New York and none of them can compare to Lalibela. The restaurant is very clean and the service was amazing. The owner, who was very friendly came up to me and the other customers and would check in on us and make sure everything was perfect. 10/10 will definitely be back👍👍“
