Amazing! 5 stars is not high enough! I've had excellent Ethiopian food overseas and this was as good or better! Service was quick and friendly, food was delicious and spicy in exactly the right way! Nothing compares to good injera! Would definitely recommend even to anyone wanting to try Ethiopian cuisine, don't hesitate!

Found this little spot while I was in town. The staff is friendly and the food was tasty and well presented. I ordered the Doro Wot. It was packed with flavor and just enough spice to enhance the dish, but not so much as to make it painful to eat. The sauce was a beautiful slightly sweet tomato based sauce packed with unique spices and flavor that danced on the tongue. Floating in the dish came one chicken drumstick with meat that fell off the bone and a hard boiled egg. The perfect amount to both fill me up and have a little leftover for tomorrow’s lunch. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone interested in exploring Ethiopian cuisine in the area.

From the outside, it could be a bit easy to miss if you aren't looking for it, but once you enter, everything changes. I was greeted with fun festive music. The woman who took my order was extremely helpful and proud of what they had to offer. I had some idea of what I wanted to try and she helped me narrow things down. She also recommended the house-made wine. The food arrived quickly, and everything was excellent. The meat was well spiced and flavorful without being overly hot. Of the veggie sides that came with my order, the beets and the cabbage were definitely the stars. I will most definitely be back and will be bringing some friends with me. This place is a gem and deserves as much business as they can handle without losing their charm or their quality. Next time I will remember to take photos before diving in.
