Just wanted to leave a review that we came on a Friday at about 1pm. Although both on google maps and their physical sign at the restaurant say they're open, they weren't. I'm not sure why though. We were looking forward to eating here!

Arguably the best Ethiopian food in Toronto. Our server Zamet provided excellent service.

Our second time to this place for lunch and we are dazzled by the food. We ordered the vegetarian platter for two, and each of the six different foods on the injera had a unique and full flavour. Definitely the best Ethiopian food we have ordered anywhere. And very modestly priced. The service was friendly, warm, wonderful. We live about 90 minutes from Toronto, and this place is worth the trip!

They have such a delicious Shiro.
Which I strongly recommend for everyone.
The cha-cha tibs is also top on the list.

They have a very nice shiro, and the waiter is amazing.

LOVE this place! I used to eat here regularly when I lived in the city; so now that I live more than an hour away, making a visit to Abyssinia is a MUST every time I am anywhere nearby. This is absolutely, hands down, the BEST Ethiopian food in the city, no comparison. Sanadoo is amazing at what she does! Her Berbere sauce is in a league of its own, I am a massive fan of the vegetarian platter, can't seem to get enough (I am not a vegetarian, that may tell you something😆). TRULY, the Alicha Wot is incredible, yebeg tibs is dream haunting, the kitfo is Devine; and the injera...OMG you'll think you've died and gone to heaven! I could go on and on. Honestly, no matter what dish it is, it's always the very best I have ever had. I crave her food all the time and grieve the reality that I simply live too far away to make a regular visit to indulge my love of Ethiopian food. If you are looking for the best Ethiopian food you've ever had... Look no further. You've found it at Abyssinia. Enjoy!

A really sane and wonderful place to have great Ethiopian food we stopped visiting our fave when it turned out to be so busy that the noise and the lack of service ... WE are delighted to have discovered this little gem!! Our party was of three we always order a vegetarian platter and a meat platter, the lamb was superbly seasoned and tender, the beef eaters were super happy I would have like the njera tangier and I hope for this on our next time, the ambience is easy on the ears and no huge TV blasting, although they do have a bar give it a try!

By Far The Best Habesha Cuisine I Had In The City. The Shiro Wot And Cha-Cha Tibs Were Amazing. They Were Generous With The Portions They Served Us, It Was Very Filling And Satisfying. Top Tier Establishment Forsure.

Very disappointing! The food came cold. When we returned it. They warmed it up in the microwave and returned with parts eaten that we sent back. Looks good when it arrives but is COLD!! After speaking to the manager she got upset with no attempt to rectify the situation at the end.

I will be reporting this to the city as cold food including meat that came cold when you bite into it is unacceptable.
