Go for the food, not the quick service. The food is amazing! If you are unfamiliar, imagine eating communally from a shared plate ...all the dishes together on a soft, spongy bread (similar to a Mysore dosa). Figure thirty bucks each. Go with three good friends, expect to be there for a couple hours, and for some reason there is no mobile tower coverage there. WORTH IT

Le restaurant est sympa, l'ambiance est familiale mais malheureusement notre expérience n'a pas été la meilleure. Nous sommes arrivés tôt, seulement 2 tables étaient occupées et la nourriture a été servie 1h30 après. C'est très bon et véritablement "fait maison" mais les plats sont un peu chers pour la quantité servie. Peut-être qu'un peu de musique dans le fond serait plus convivial. Il faut également payer uniquement en argent comptant et ce n'est pas forcément clair à votre arrivée. Le personnel est sympathique mais le service laisse un peu à désirer.

Excellent! Ethiopian food is one of the most delicious culinary experiences across the globe. They will bring you a large plate full of rich spicy flavors with the soft and spongy injera underneath which should be enough to scoop up your entire plate. Vegetarian options are available too and ideally you could share with someone and if you're lucky there is room by the window. You can bring your own wine here too, if that’s something you like.

Decided to try this out since it's in the neighborhood, and I like supporting local businesses. Also because the last Ethiopian restaurant I tried was a bit disappointing to say the least. In short, the food here was the BOMB dot com!! Bursting with flavors, and just the right portions, laid out on freshly-made injera. Sure: the place is not the fanciest, and the service is a bit slow (expect at least a 30-minute wait for your food). It's a mom and pop shop in its truest form; Mom and Pop (owners) are the only 2 employees I saw. But once you take your first bite, everything is forgiven. Definitely going back. Soon. And again. And again...

My first and only time trying Ethiopian food. Such an amazing experience. I left stuffed. Food took a little longer than I would like, but it's totally worth the wait, we we're also a big group of people. The couple running the place are very sweet.

OMG!!! What a delicious discovery! The injara was heavenly light and fluffy and the dish (mix of tender meat stew, yellow peas, lentis (red were a little spicy and yellow were mild) cooked potatoes and carrots) was out of this world! The depth of flavours was indescribable! Everything was homemade, very reasonably priced, and served by the sweetest owners! I can’t wait to go back! Vegetarian options: Sooooooo many vegetarian options!!!
