Unfortunately had a really poor experience at this restaurant. The portion sizes for the non-platter dishes were tiny for $18. Additionally there were flies that kept on landing on our food while trying to eat - overall not worth your money unfortunately.

The food was incredible, so savoury! The experience was very nice. It was my first time eating Ethiopian food, and I really enjoyed it. The people were also very nice!

I wish I had discovered this place before COVID or I should say, I wish I had ventured into this restaurant. The food is truly soulful: made of humble ingredients like lentils and cabbage but elevated with spices that make it the best comfort and obviously healthy food you can get. I love this place!

Visited this past Saturday for lunch, the food was delicious! Would highly recommend. The server was very friendly, but knocked off one star for service because a couple of times we had to try to find her for extra injera and then when we wanted to pay. But the overall experience was lovely and I would happily return!

We ordered the vegetarian platter and it did not contain most of the dishes listed on the menu but had several meat dishes. The only person working in the restaurant did not speak English and didn’t understand what the problem was so it could not be fixed. We asked for glasses of water and got bottles. We ended up having to pay for food we couldn’t eat as vegetarians and will never go back. It was appallingly awful service and a terrible atmosphere. I’ve never had an experience like this at a restaurant.

The food taste has changed completely. It does not taste good now. I absolutely loved this place before. Makes me really sad.

I loved the food. I got the lamb platter and my friend got the vegetable platter and both were very yummy. My only note would be to indicate what's not available on the menu rather than having customers choose and then find out it's not available, as was the case with the Sambusas and Smoothies listed in the menu.

I went to this establishment to order take out a big group arrives the same time as I did. They were seated I ordered for 2 for take away and was advised it would take 30 minutes. I returned 30 minutes later, only to be told it was not ready but the why is the kicker because the group I ordered before needed their food and mine would be another 15 mins with no apology or attempt to appease. He didn’t care or seem to be bothered when I said no I will not wait and that I was leaving. Short sidedness like this needs to be shared good food few times I have eaten there. Suffice it to say I will not return and thought it worthwhile to share.
