This place is wonderful. The food is amazing and you get so much of it. Theres really good vegetarian options, and they have my favorite samosas of anywhere in Seattle.

The host is really lovely and always makes us feel welcome.

Highly recommend stopping here for dinner.

This place is a gem for Ethiopian food in north Seattle. My family and a few of my close friends love to come here on a regular basis! I always order the veggie combo, which is the perfect size for two people!
