The food here is fantastic, some of the best I've ever had. My only criticism would be that you don't get quite enough of it for what you pay. I never leave quite full, but close to it. Other than that it would be nice if we were waited upon a bit quicker, but that's a very minor complaint.

Honestly, I could eat here every day. The servers are extremely polite and accommodating. They have an all-you-can-eat buffet during lunch that's predetermined which menu items are available for the buffet. The food on the menu is deliciously served hot and fresh. That injera bread is amazing! Each time I'm in Nashville this spot pops into my mind when hunger comes. If you're in the area it's a must in my book, go see for yourself.

It’s definitely outdated. But the potato wet was amazing. Not too spicy at all.

Quaint little place. It could use some upgrades as far as the building goes. My husband and I stopped in on a whim, just to try something new. Parking is located in the rear. The deck/outdoor seating area seems very rustic and the boards seem weak. Take caution when walking on it. The interior is outdated but clean. The food is phenomenal. We ordered an appetizer. I can't remember the name of it but it had some cheese on baguettes and a little spicy. Very good, but it only came with 4. So it was pricy for what you get. I highly recommend the Chicken tibs. The viggies were good. The red lentils were seasoned to perfection. The yellow lentils were a little bland in my opinion, not bad, just bland. The food was a little pricy but very filling. No silverware is served with the meal, you simply use the bread to pick up the food to eat.

Parking: Plenty of parking in the back.

Wheelchair accessibility: I think it would be difficult for a wheel chair as there are steps on the front of the building and no wheel chair ramp.

Don’t let the exterior of this place deter you… The food that they serve up inside of this unassuming restaurant is legitimately some of the best Ethiopian I’ve ever had!

They do a great buffet at lunch so if you’re not sure what you like, I highly recommend going at lunch and sampling a little bit of everything as I did on this trip.

And let me tell you, everything was flavorful, authentic, and absolutely delicious!
