Absolutely love this place, the owner is the sweetest person, and had my first date with my now wife here! Everything we’ve tried from the menu has been excellent, and would highly recommend this restaurant to anybody!

Have only done take out but so good. Weve had the meat combos and the vegetarian combos and both are amazing especially for the price

Very cool little restaurant, having never eaten this type of cuisine before they were patient to explain what the various dishes and answer a bunch of our questions beyond just what we were eating. Super friendly and laid back. Will totally go again.

Only went once but it's already one of my favorite restaurants in Seattle! Amazing service and food in a cozy atmosphere. I'll definitely be back soon, maybe with friends because more people should know how good this place is.

My friend and I ate dinner here last night and had an amazing experience. The food was great, the woman running it was so kind and helpful and attentive. It was my first time trying Ethiopian food and I could not have asked for a better experience.

The food was amazing, and the service was super friendly and knowledgeable. It’s my favorite type of local hole in the wall restaurant. I’ll definitely be back when I’m in the area! I got meat combo #1 with only beef instead of beef and lamb.

Dietary restrictions: No peanuts and I think no gluten either?

Parking: It’s right on the edge of a neighborhood, so you might have to park there

I absolutely love this place! The food is amazing and perfect in every way! I’ve never been disappointed in the food or atmosphere! Owners are super friendly! This place should definitely be acknowledged more as the Best Ethiopian Restaurant in Seattle!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾 I drive from Covington because it’s that good 😊

Amazingly friendly and welcoming. Food was amazing. They took my food allergy very seriously, which I really appreciate.

First time here and we were hooked! The owner is super sweet and the food is amazing. The injera was fresh and delicious. We ordered the Jebena Combination and it was great. Everything had great flavor and texture. We added Yasa Tibs (tilapia) and it was one of our favorites. Go here!

The service was great but can’t say the same about the food. If you’re habesha there are way more authentic places to go. I’ve been twice and was not impressed with the food.
