★★★★★ 5.0 Manisha Sabat · Jun 2025

We went there for dinner prior to going to a soccer game, and we enjoyed our food immensely. All the food items were great and delicious. The owner is friendly and nice and turned on the AC as per our request as it was really hot on that day. It is definitely on the expensive side as all the side orders were expensive and we had to order the items a few times as it wasn't enough for us. That is something to be aware of. Other than that, the food, service, and ambiance were good. I definitely recommend this restaurant for Ethiopian food.

★★★★★ 5.0 Claire Paratore · Mar 2025

I had an absolutely incredible experience here! The staff was extremely attentive and courteous. The decor was beautiful. The location was clean and the music was catchy and set to a very conversational volume. I ordered the small meat combo platter with a coffee and was astounded by presentation with which it was received. The food itself was excellent and the combo platter was very well varied. It felt like the perfect sampler yet was well more than ample as a full meal. Each dish was colorfully unique, though my favorite portion was the Quanta Firfir which was rich and spicy. Finally, the coffee was outstanding… and I am a coffee snob. I would recommend this place to Ethiopian enthusiasts and new comers alike!

This restaurant is amazing if you want a homey comfortable atmosphere looking to explore authentic ethiopian culture or dive deeper into your ethiopian roots. Very great music, high quality drinks, amazing price for the deliciousness of the food. We ordered the Asfu Kitfo which came as a big platter with kitfo, greens, different other meats and many more. Amazing host and staff and great coffee as well. Cannot recommend this place enough! 10/10

★★★★★ 5.0 Shawn Donnelly · Jul 2025

We went for early dinner on Monday. The owner and the employees were so warm and welcoming. Food presentation and taste was just special and perfect. The spices were just right. We ordered a vegetable meal and each item complimented the flavors of the other dish. Will come back again and again!

★★★★★ 5.0 Comboni Jamal Tutu · Feb 2025

I went to this restaurant for lunch while on a school break. Honestly, the food is a lot for few dollars ($25). I thought I was given food for three. The atmosphere is so welcoming: music playing in the background, and happy, smiling, welcoming waiters engaging you in positive conversation. I highly recommend this restaurant.
