I’m in the neighborhood with all of the best PDX Ethiopian restaurants and Aberus is what I crave every time. I order the beef combo and veggie combo number 2 for take out and it is 4 to six meals. Amazing food and made with love.
Wonderful friendly owners! Delicious food!
We were looking for original Ethiopian food. If we could, we’d eat here at least twice a week. Friendly and clean atmosphere The owner came to our table and explained some of the best dishes Portions were more than enough and everything was so delicious. The injera was perfect. We will eat here often. It was worth the drive.
