This was the most flavorful, euphoric plate of food I've ever had. The amount of food they give us is insane! Every bite was something new, and amazing taste. There was nothing we didn't like, it was so delicious and warm. Definitley will be coming back again and again.

We spent about 2.5 hours in this restaurant from walking in to leaving. Not because we wanted to but rather everything took so long. We sat and ordered 2 beers which were given to us but not opened until we asked later on. We put a simple food order in for 2 and it took over an hour to get it. We asked for an eta on the food about 45 min after ordering. The waitress told us they are very busy. Taking a look around the restaurant, it did not seem so at the moment. They had some people in there but not an amount that would make you wait this long. After receiving the food and being about half way done with our food we asked for more injera and sat there waiting for the injera about 30 min. It never came. We then just asked for a receipt so we could leave. The waitress takes another 20 min then comes back out to take an order of the table next to us while we simply are waiting for a receipt. We then ask again and she hands us the receipt but never comes back to take my credit card. Luckily, the receipt has a barcode you can scan to pay online which came in handy because we probably would’ve been there another hour trying to pay. After looking at the receipt she charged us for the extra injera that we NEVER got. I have NEVER EVER not tipped someone in my life but this service was the first time I ever have. The food was great but I will never be coming back again.

Everything is good here. The lentils are amazing as it's full of flavor. We usually get the mixed platter with a little bit of everyth, served on top of a giant injera bread. The coffee service is terrific as well.

Best Authentic Ethiopian Food in Seattle. The Veggie Combo is very good. Wish the ambience would have been better. Will definitely visit again!

The food was excellent. Is by far the best Eritrean/Ethiopian food I had in Seattle area. However the restaurant was little bit disorganized, I had to walked back in to get my correct order. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant they got delicious food. The service needs improvement.

Wow we got the meat and veggie combo. It was absolutely stellar and rich with flavor. I also thought it was a really good spread. Definitely get the dark if you like more sour (highly recommended). Really nice staff too :)
