Customer Reviews
The food here was absolutely delicious, I’ve never had Ethiopian food so I don’t know what to compare with but I’m a Nigerian that appreciates great flavors. I had the deluxe vegan and added lamb tibbs and it was chefs kiss. If you like hot spicies add the red mitmita it’s amazing kinda like suya spice. The atmosphere was lively for a winter night, you need reservations for sure. Customer service was lovely too. I recommend
For my last day in DC I was torn between Bbq or Ethiopian cuisine; sooo glad I picked this restaurant. I've had Ethiopian food before in Canada yet every place has it's own savour. Got the Vegan Special and I had a chance to try some items for the first time. I was truly enchanted since every bite had something unique to offer. My favourite were the String beans and red lentils. Really wanted to try Berbere chicken but it wasn't offered in any of the combos so that was a miss for me. Overall I left satisfied.
I'm visiting DC from NY and I've always wanted to try Ethiopian food! So I found this place near my hotel and decided to treat myself to a solo dolo date. Only a 7 min walk in the cold but totally worth it. The place was super warm when I got there and they welcomed me in to sit at the bar since they were closing within the hour. All I knew was that I needed veggies in my system and boy, did they DELIVER!?! They brought my food within 10 min of me ordering! I wish I remembered the name of this dish but it was a deluxe vegan dish with the injera (spongey flatbread) and eating with my hands was such a fun experience. I paired it with a glass of sweet Ethiopian white wine and it was so tasty. I'd say that the only thing they could've done better on was being a little more attentive with me
We had a nice experience overall at Checher DC. The food was flavorful and satisfying — we ordered one lamb plate, two beef plates, honey wine, and two sambosas. Everything tasted good, especially the main dishes. The only downside was that the sambosas came out cold, which was a little disappointing. Other than that, we enjoyed the meal and appreciated the variety of flavors.
I walked in on a Tuesday as soon as they opened and was welcomed with the beautiful Ethiopian incense (እጣን). What a surprise! I was visiting from North Carolina and wanted to grab a quick lunch before my train back to NC. The restaurant is beautiful, homey and unique. I loved the greetings on the door in many different languages. The waitress/managers were all lovely and knowledgeable. I didn't want alot of onions on my tibs but she advised it may affect the taste and that I can remove the ones I didn't want. She was right! I had the Chercher Special Tibs and it was amazingly tender, delicious. Thank you for the hospitality and food. I shall return when I'm in town again!
