Excellent vegetarian options. We've visited twice in person and we got take-out one time (during Covid). Basically all the sides except the "cottage cheese" are veg and three entrees are veg. We have tried all the veg entrees and all the sides - everything was wonderful! Make sure you ask for the hot sauce (I didn't think to, and the owner offered - so glad she did!) It was very flavorful, but not too spicy. TIP: After you enter, order at the counter, then take a seat. There's seating for about 20, with two 3-person tables, an 8 person table and a 6 person table.

When you walk in you become hungry for everything. My first time in and I ordered three mains with three sides because the smell was so enticing. Every single thing I tried was delicious and possibly even more the next day when I had the leftovers for lunch. I intend to try the rest of the menu as soon as I can. My only regret is not going sooner.
We got a chicken doro wat, green lentils, yellow lentils, red lentils, potatoes & carrot stew, cabbage stew, home made cottage cheese and the jalapeno spicy sauce. Everything was perfectly made and the hostess was very kind. The ambiance was very welcoming too.

Friendly service, low-key atmosphere, and the food is absolutely *stunning.* Some of my favorite Ethiopian food I've ever had. Wonderful all around!

The flavor of the food is unlike anything I've ever had before, almost like a spaghetti sauce with more spices covering what looks like a crepe and some chicken on the bone. Service was great the staff was super helpful and kind, fast service, big portions and didn't break the bank. The ambiance is authentic to Ethiopia with the decor matching the theme or the restaurant.
Wow. Hands down, hidden gem in Bellingham. Absolutely delicious! The spices from the chicken stew, paired with the creaminess of the homemade cottage cheese!! Oh gosh - the perfect bite! Don’t even get me started on the boiled egg! More please!! Love this place!
What a nice cozy place. Don’t expect much as ambiance goes, but the food! Wow. Great comfort food. Very small place plan according.

My partner and I absolutely LOVED our lunch! Being vegan and gluten free it’s not always easy to find food! The Injere was incredible and our lentil dish was hearty, delicious and so authentic! Definitely come here when you visit Bellingham! A new favorite!
