Ethiopian cuisine, it was my second time going to that restaurant, first time was in 2018. I loved it then, was even better this time. Pretty unique experience for me. They improved the dinning room since last time.

Significant degradation since my last visit. Even the kitfo was meh, and they removed the option to have it served raw as is traditional. Will be heading to the Blue Nile next time.

The lady was amazing. The food was great, and she made me tea when I told her I had a sore throat. The best tea ever

Vegetarian options: Lentils were super flavourful
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free injera bread is great!
I find that as much as independent local restaurants want to evoke the feel of family, Habesha represents this better than most. Top 10 and I rate a lot of places from all over my travels. Not just because the sharing plates, the dive-in attitude being cutlery-free but each serving was deeply enjoyable. If it wasn't for the fear of missing the opportunity of getting my share, I would have let each mouthful stay with me longer. A six hour drive today was topped off with family and friends and a new fave.

Ordered meat platter, the bread is bit too acidic to my liking, the yellow vegetables tastes great, the meat green onion dish is spicy. the rest single meat dishes on menu are all probably spicy, maybe will try veggie platter and grilled whole fish next time.

I can't say enough great things about Habesha. Friendly staff and the most amazing food you've ever eaten. I also think it's great value for money. You will leave stuffed. Habesha platter is my fave. Kid friendly.

Me and my partner got the veggie platter and 2 orders of vegetarian sambusas. She ensured us that it was all vegan as well.
It was more that enough food, we could have easily split the veggie platter and one order of sambusas.
The sambusas were definitely on the spicier side and had some chili's inside. So as long as you can handle some spice you're good! The injera was so good, sour and fluffy.

If you need a welcoming reception this is no a place to go! I went there for the first time while visiting Ottawa and whenever I order some additional stuff like coffee they are like « oh here you go again,? » Awful to say the least !
