It's honestly a shame that there aren't more Ethiopian restaurants in the area because the food is an adventure for the taste buds. The dishes are very flavourful and the plates are filling and Addis does an exceptional job. Not only is the food excellent, but the set up is pretty nice too. I highly recommend this place if you like unique and flavourful cuisine that hits the spot....

I’d like to start by saying the owner is wonderful and the staff. I frequent this restaurant on many occasions, but I fear I must stop. On each occasion the food is undercooked. 1. Everytime I order to go the order take the chef 5-10 mins to cook it. Which leads me to believe the food is sitting, not fresh, and not cooked to order. I am being generous with the 10 mins. Although I love that I don’t have to wait long the quality is continuous compromised. 2. The food is always undercooked and void of flavor. The lentils are raw, hard, and crunchy.

Holy cow. This place was amazing. The waitress was incredibly kind and helpful with explaining the options so we could get a good selection. The food flavor was absolutely incredible as well. It’d been years since I last had Ethiopian food and Addis far surpassed expectations. Highly recommend this place!!!

Took a day trip to Richmond to meet a friend for lunch, and was looking for a great Ethiopian spot and this place did not disappoint! The food here is absolutely amazing! By far my favorite Ethiopian restaurant in Richmond. The food is well seasoned and portion size is just right!

We went there for dinner and ordered Katenya and Chicken tibs for main. The food was good. The Katenya was Injera bread toasted with filling. The chicken tibs were a little dry with only cauliflower salad and no more accompaniments. Service was slow and quiet and the ambience was ok.
