We came here for lunch on Saturday with my partner, sister, and my 14-month-old niece, and honestly it was such a great experience. The food was amazing and everything we tried was really good. The service was super friendly and made us feel welcome right away. What we really appreciated was how kid-friendly the place is—there were plenty of options for our toddler, which made things so much easier.

It’s not always easy going out to eat with a little one,...
I ordered doro wot today through Uber Eats and was really excited to try it. While the stew itself tasted good, I was very disappointed to find that it came without any chicken. Doro wot is supposed to include chicken, but my order only had the stew and two eggs.

Overall, the flavor was good, but the dish was incomplete and not what I expected. I hope the restaurant ensures that future orders include all the proper ingredients.
I have had a good experience with family at Makeda. Being an African-American person who enjoys Ethiopian culture and cuisine is nothing short of amazing. Chef Mimi and staff have been great, plus the food is astronomical when it comes to Ethiopian culture
