What a fantastic Ethiopian meal! The vegan sampler for 1 had much variety and came with plenty of injera. I love Kitfo (raw), and this portion was pretty large, so flavorful, even spicy! The waitress was attentive and so friendly as well.

The absolute best gluten free restaurant experience I have had in New York until this day! And I cost me only $24. It is absurdly cheap. I will be tipping extra just because the food should be priced higher for such amazing quality!!! HOW am I discovering Ethiopian food like this is naturally gluten free. Huge portions! The picture doesn’t show how much food you truly get! I am moving away from this neighborhood next week, but I just found this place 😭

Great and satisfying experience at this restaurant: from the authentic Ethiopian dishes to the service and staff recommendations based on our tastes we had an amazing time. The food was delicious and size was definitely good, I also enjoyed some Ethiopian drinks. The staff was really engaging and friendly with us. Definitely recommend

Nice Ethiopian. My first time having this cuisine in NYC! The decor is clean and minimal, but it works. This evening their was only one lady in the front managing all the tables. Being a Monday night not very busy. She was friendly and helpful explaining the menu and making recommendations. We ordered 2 appetisers and 3 mains between three of us. The portions are quite big and we landed up eating a lot as the food was delicious!! Would highly recommend this place… and will surely plan to visit again!
