Desta Ethiopian Restaurant gave me an amazing experience! The service was warm and attentive, the food was fresh and full of authentic flavor, and the atmosphere had that perfect old-school vintage Ethiopian vibe—comfortable, welcoming, and full of culture. Definitely one of the best spots to enjoy real Ethiopian cuisine!

A must try! Desta Ethiopian has been around for a long time. Excellent food and service! The lamb tips were absolutely delicious. They have the best unsweet Tea! Hints of cinnamon and cloves. Very good!

Went there to eat after a friend's baptism had the party room next door. .it held about 35 people food was great not accustom to Ethiopian food and the bread but it was great its like soul food but just cooked differently . . But coffee is amazing not a huge coffee drinker at all. . But their black coffee straight or a splash of milk in the tiny cups was great after a meal. Service is amazing theyre really good at what they do. Definitely recommend. Party room holds about 40-45 people maxish

I’ve been going to this place for at least seven years. I feel like it’s family. They’re so kind to me and the food is always delicious. They experience is great. if you’re looking for a quick fast food, this is not a good choice . If you’re looking for a great experience this is a great one!!!

This is a food only review, as it was delivered via Uber.

I have ordered from Desta before, and always go for the Tibs. An order comes with a lot of injera, which you'll want, so you can soak up all the amazing juices. The flavour and the heat on the awaze is just right for me.

I also got a couple of samosas, also awaze, and they're just right, too. I am appreciative of the time it takes to make this food, so I can't complain too much about the pricing, but a single serve is over $20, and the portions aren't enormous, other than the injera, of course!!
