Best Ethiopian food in town! The food is delicious, the people are lovely, the service is fast, and super reasonably priced. We got a meat combo and a veggie combo for four people, and I haven't stopped thinking about it since. One of the best meals I've had in years. If you are looking for a relaxed date night, do yourselves a favor: go see a movie at the Beacon Cinema, then walk two doors down to Alem and eat a great meal.

I came in here with a large group of friends (12+) and they were super accommodating to our size and extended the kitchen hours to feed us! They gave us free coffee and fandisha (traditional popcorn) to finish our night -- everyone was full and happy by the end of the night! Great atmosphere, very kind staff, and delicious and affordable food (I'm Ethiopian, I know the good stuff)! The community is lucky to have this spot so accessible. :) A place people need to be supporting!

Went for the first time with a large group of friends — all of us being big lovers of Ethiopian food & Alem didn’t disappoint! The food was delicious (esp the vegetarian combo), the atmosphere was warm and very welcoming, and the coffee at the end of the meal was so beautifully presented. We recommended Alem to more friends and will definitely go back!
