We LOVE Aberus Ethiopian restaurant. It's the best Ethiopian restaurant in town. We always get the Aberus Combination and that is the perfect amount of food for us. The food is so nourishing, flavorful and delicious.

The best Ethiopian restaurant in Portland in my opinion. I appreciate especially as a celiac, that their injera is truly authentic with just Teff and automatically gluten free (unlike many other ethiopian retaurants who use cheap wheat flour). Both ladies are so kind and accomodating to allergies, the portions are massive and it's just so delicious! We always order the aberus combination without dairy (it's automatically gluten free). It has a great variety of curries from beef, chicken and vegetarian to eat.
One of my husband's and my favorite spots in the city - definitely check it out!

Really delicious food! They were friendly and patient and accommodated our wide ranging spice preferences. Their injera is gluten free!!! Can't wait to go back!

First time eating Ethiopian food, definitely won’t be the last. Tried the Awaze Tibs with beef and cannot stress enough how delicious it was.

Service was great, I didn’t know what to order and the recommendation was just on point. Food was fresh with a homemade feeling to it !

Portland is blessed to have a large Ethiopian and Eritrean community. There are so many incredible places to eat, and so many people with big hearts and incredible recipes sharing their foods and culture with us. I honestly haven't eaten at an Ethiopian restaurant in Portland that wasn't good. I will say that Aberus is our new favorite. Particularly, there are some combo plates that they have that include meat dishes and vegetable dishes that is enough for three reasonably hungry people to get full on, that are under $30. Often at Ethiopian places, you order veggie combos, and then meat dishes, but we really like being able to just order one combo and get all of those things.

Everything we've tried here has been amazing, excellent flavors, well balanced between mild and spicy, not overly salty, very fresh and an incredible value. The people running the place are very sweet and kind, and we really enjoy supporting them.

My wife and I think this is the best Ethiopian restaurant in NE Portland, which is saying a lot because there are so many delicious Ethiopian restaurants here.

Ethiopian food is probably our favorite cuisine overall, and over the years, this has become our go-to option for consistently delicious food.

The sisters who run it are delightful and welcoming. While everything on the menu is good, we particularly enjoy the veggie combo #2 and the lamb tibs.

My wife and I love the veggie combo 1&2. Delicious plant based (vegan friendly) meals. The twin sisters are very friendly and welcoming. Don't miss out on this gem. Oh yeah, the Ethiopian coffee is to die for!
