Meseret Ethiopian Restaurant

I don’t know if my photos do this justice because I don’t have smell-a-vision. I loved everything about this place. I was a bit nervous that my take out was a quadruple order because of packaging - turns out they just care about presentation and making sure your food is separate, neat and palatable. We ordered the meat/ veggie combo for two people- it’s way more than enough and for an affordable price. Great little Habesha eatery.

Really loved the food here. I got the Gored Gored and I loved it. It was really spicy, but it was still great. Like that they gave you goat cheese to cool you down as you ate it. Apparently I got told by a guy at the restaurant that I chose the spiciest thing on the menu, but anyways, it was still great and I loved it. The place is also really convenient to get to, both by bike and by transit, as this place is right along the 38th street bike lanes and the minnehaha avenue bike lanes, and it is right along both the Route 7 and Route 38 buses

One of my favorite dishes I always get is dullet. I have tried many dishes there as well. I’ve been going there for many years and it was my first place there too. The ownership kind of changed, but the person who cooks is still there. The service is pretty slow, but the food is worth the wait.

One of the best for Ethiopian Cuisine. The owners are super friendly and really care about your experience. The decor is actually pretty nice too they put a lot of thought into everything. They are pretty professional too across all groups of people. I loved it here and will be back!

If you want to enjoy the food here, right-size your expectations. Be ready to wait and pay more than what's on the menu. The service was slow. We were the only folks dining in at the time and it took 40 minutes from ordering to getting our food. We saw two to-go pick up orders during the time we were there. It was the owner and two workers helping her so likely understaffed, which is not unusual during the pandemic. We were charged $2 more per dish than what was on the menu. I understand if there is a need to increase prices, especially during the pandemic, but update the menu, even if that means putting stickers with the correct price over the old price. Or at minimum, give customers a heads up when taking orders that the prices are higher than what's on the menu. We were going to order
