“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.“

“Lalibela server the best Ethiopian Cuisine with excellent service.“

“The food is delicious, healthy, and will fill you up, but the real prize and appeal of this spot is the sweet family who own and run it. You’re greeted with a smile, and treated with warmth and patience and a genuine kindness. Easily the most welcomed I’ve felt eating out in a very long time. It really makes a difference. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Ethiopian cuisine is one of my favorites and this is top 2 in the country (along with Ras in Brooklyn)!
Delicious food, had vegan combos and beef tibs, perfect spice level and everything was flavorful. The injera was on point as well.
The owner was very pleasant and made himself available to chat and give the backstory of the restaurant he shares with his mother.
100% recommend!“

“Meskel’s Ethiopian food is so delicious! All of Martha’s offerings are beautifully spiced with generous portions and ample tangy injera to enjoy each bite with. If it were possible, our family would order every day, but Sundays and Mondays are special.“

“Delicious food, beyond compare. We ordered the veggie combo plate for two and some lamb and it was all to-die-for. The place itself was wonderfully quiet, no kitchen noise or noise from diners scooting their chairs around or anything like that.“

“My son and i ordered our dinner to be delivered, so obviously I can't speak to the atmosphere or table service. Our order arrived early, and the food was really delicious! We will order again from Bete Lukas most definitely. Very Tasty and satisfying indeed!“

“The owner Yemaneh has been so accommodating. I buy stuff from here to take to my family in California and he has been so accommodating with this and I’m very appreciative. Thanks Yemaneh and team! FYI, this place can be super busy on days they have fresh beef, go as early as you can or you’d be waiting in line for quite a while. This place has decent collection of Ethiopian spices as well as injera that’s gluten free(as I’m told). However, if you have gluten sensitivity, make sure to mention this to them before purchasing as they might have both kinds and you don’t wanna walk out with the wrong one. Happy shopping:-)“
