This in my opinion is the best restaurant in Hamilton. If you want a home-cooked meal experience with decent folk, this is the place to go.

The Ethiopian food was delicious. I would highly recommend coming with 2-3 close friends or family and getting the largest combination platter to try many different dishes. The dorowat is exceptional and a must try. Service is also very good and staff are helpful in providing recommendations

I absolutely love this place! The food here is full of flavor and feels so authentic honestly some of the best Ethiopian food I’ve had. The chicken stew(doro wat)is my absolute favorite; it’s rich, perfectly seasoned, and goes so well with the fresh injera. The lamb is also incredible so tender and full of spice and depth. You can tell everything is cooked with care and made with fresh ingredients.

The portions are generous and such good value for money, especially compared to other places. The owners are so kind and attentive; they make you feel genuinely welcome every time you visit. The service is always 10/10 quick, friendly, and warm.

It’s one of those spots that makes you feel at home the moment you walk in. If you’re craving real Ethiopian food with amazing flavors and wonderful service, this is definitely the place to go!

Today I tried Ethiopian food, and it was one of the healthiest and most delicious options I’ve ever had! The variety of lentils, vegetables, and spices made every bite flavorful and satisfying. Injera, the traditional sourdough flatbread, was a unique and tasty way to enjoy the dishes. I love how balanced the meals are — packed with nutrients, yet full of taste. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to explore a flavorful, wholesome cuisine!
