★★★★★ 5.0 Been’ there · Nov 2024

Business on the front. Party in the back. There is a hidden room in the back for Eritrean men to play pool and hang out, there is one pool table against the wall but the guys are very competitive. The food is good quality and cooked to perfection by the women behind the window. The Beef Tibs is so fresh and so tasty. Lamb Tibs, Shiro, Tibs Firfir, Kikil, Tsebhi Derho (Doro Wat) are great to order as well and try the taste Eritrea 🇪🇷 The injera bread it’s great too and fresh. The food takes a bit of time to get cooked but it’s worth the wait.

This review is about a delivery order. It included the Chicken Tibs with Rice, Avocado Salad, and the Vegetarian Combo Plate. They were overall amazingly delicious. The last time o ordered the rice it was seasoned a little better, but it was still good. The Pound Cake is by Sara Lee so that was disappointing. The main dishes were so good and the ingredients so fresh I’m still giving them all stars. It was also delivered in a Friday night and came fairly quickly.

Spent two hours here while waiting for kids at Circus Juventus. Had one of the best salads that I’ve had in my entire life. Leah, the server, was excellent and made me feel comfortable throughout my extended stay. WiFi is available. Extended stays are welcome. There is a pool table in the back. A bar around an espresso machine and approximately 10 low top tables with seating for four at each. The vibe is very happy, primarily to gather with friends and have a chat over good food and drinks if you would like. There were a significant number of takeout orders and deliveries while I was there. They do DoorDash and GrubHub. Prices are reasonable, and the quality of the ingredients was excellent. Very well spiced.

Super chill place!! The lady working there made the most amazing vanilla oat milk latte! And she was very friendly and nice. This place truly is 5 stars :) Love it!

Finally had a chance to try 5 Star Cafe. The tuna with red sauce was great! Filling and it was served with warm French bread. The fish sandwich was good too. Crispy Tilapia and good flavor. Good place to find Eritrean cuisine.
