I came to Meaza for a dinner with my best friend and it was AMAZING! The staff is so friendly and gave us great recommendations on what to eat. We had the #11 and the #21 and it did not disappoint. I will returning.

Great food in an warm, authentic setting! Ethiopian food is unique both in terms of the complexity of the flavors (lots of spices!) and in terms of its delivery (a teff-based sourdough bread called injera). Highly recommended!!

Had a really good experience at Meaza. The food was fresh, flavorful, and tasted very authentic. The injera was soft and perfect. The atmosphere was welcoming and the staff were friendly too. Definitely one of the best Ethiopian spots I’ve tried in Virginia. I’ll be coming back again.
