Awaze Ethiopian Eritrean Cuisine

Food is amazing, been here twice with my girlfriend and we got different dishes and appetizers each time. Everything’s always tastes unique and delicious. The spiced iced coffee tastes amazing. I definitely recommend coming in on an empty stomach as the portions are filling. Will definitely be coming pack in the future

This was my second visit to Awaze Ethiopian Eritrean Cuisine, and once again, their food did not disappoint. Everything tastes incredibly fresh, yet it's bursting with flavor. I don't remember the exact names of the dishes we ordered, but you can see them in the photos. The presentation was appealing, and the food tasted even better than it looked. The decor adds a nice touch to the overall experience. The service is decent—not outstanding, but it didn't take away from the experience. I highly recommend giving this place a try!

I wish I could leave -1 star. I went here yesterday for Valentine's Day dinner with my girlfriend. I had a 7:00pm reservation and upon arrival, we were not greeted or seated. I had to walk up to the counter and ask to be seated. There was a young lady there who was very rude and just pointed and said "you can sit over there". We sat down for 22 minutes before a man came and asked us what we wanted to drink. During that waiting period, I saw the waitress greet and seat multiple people that arrived after us and provided them with water, wine and took their orders. I also noticed that the waitress was glaring at us a few times, which made it clear that she was aware of the poor service she provided . The environment was very uncomfortable. Once we placed our order, it took another 10minutes f

What can I say about Awaze Ethiopian Eritrean Cuisine? Amazing food. This was my first time eating Ethiopian food, and I was blown away. From the minute I entered the restaurant, a friendly waitress greeted me; she was extremely friendly and answered all my questions. I ordered a meat sampler and was amazed at how well the dish tasted. The spicy sauces blended exceptionally well. I also ordered the Lamb Awaze tips. The lamb was incredibly tender. It's hands down the best food I’ve tried in NC. Take it from me: do yourself a favor and give this restaurant a shot.

The experience has been wonderful every time I visited. The food has been phenomenal. The first visit, I ordered the kitfo. It was prepared clean, and the injera accompanied and complemented it perfectly. It was my very first exposure to Ethiopian food when I had first went, and I did not know what to expect. However, after the first visit, I was very impressed and I came a second time - which is the time of writing my current review. It’s safe to say, there was a reason I went back. I am glad I did. The service is wonderful, and they do not rush you. The presentation, as showcased in my photos, are dreamy. I highly recommend Awaze and I am planning on coming back again!
