Still great. Be ready to get your hands dirty and don't ask for silverware.

Combination platters are the way to go here. Be open minded and enjoy!

The food is served in large platters for 2-4 people. The food is delicious. Guessing how much to order needs experience.

The flavor has gone down. ?

Unseasoned, probably to suit the typical clientele.

Years ago, this was the BEST Ethiopian food in town. Shame.

Ate here last night and had a great experience with my partner- first time eating Ethiopian in decades and I liked it.
Food came out fast.
Combination plater for 2 is the most cost effective dish, but yummy.
On the other hand, a bottle of beer there is pretty expensive.

We loved it. Everything was so well seasoned and balanced. Servers were very friendly too and the place was very clean, nice decor. We got the Ghenet combo for two and asked them to decide for us what to include because it all sounded so good. The white sangria was really nice too with lots of oranges

Ghenet is by far the tastiest Ethiopian food in Brooklyn - it’s not even close. They don’t compromise by subbing in jalapeños or mustard or other inauthentic ingredients. Portion sizes are generous and the injera is fresh and pillowy.

They’re also lovely and make sure you have a good experience. When my injera was inadvertently left behind by the delivery person, Ghenet sent someone to bring it to me separately. I really appreciate them going above and beyond.

Everything was excellent and terrific Ethiopian spongy bread. The mild beef stew has a little bit more hot to it than expected for those who are trying to avoid but not so much that I didn’t go ahead and eat it it in spite of the potential digestive issues. Lol.

The Ethiopian beer is not the worlds most special beer, but that’s what I’d get again in an Ethiopian restaurant.

The servings were really huge and after we got the two person platter special we brought back quite a bit of food with us.
