I had the tsome firfir. It should be called Kar. Kar is Ethiopian word for heart burn. Food was delicious. However, it’s too oily. Hope the restaurant finds another way to flavor food.

WOW !!! I’ve driven passed this place a lot and always wanted to try. And one word; WOW! I ordered off postmates today and decided on marathon as I had a complicated order, and no other restaurant could fulfill it. Dude from the restaurant called me & went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect!!! Such a sweet soul. The food was INSANE! So good! Also random side note; My boyfriend has stuffed sinuses but is sensitive to ultra-spice, and the food was just palatable spice level for them & cleared their sinuses entirely!!! THEY STILL NOT SNIFFLING AS I WRITE THIS A FEW HOURS LATER!!! This is the SPOT !!

Very horrible service they treat their own countrymen as second class citizen!! What a shame they only cater to habeshas and people with their same ideologies. Anyways it’s their lost because the food is trash anyways ... DO NOT GO ! I DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL 0/10

I went out with my family for some Ethiopian food but the people who work there were very rude and unwelcoming. The waiters didn’t greet us or smiled at all actually they gave us nasty look. I was as shocked at how they handled their customers. The food was terrible too. It was so old and greasy. When the waitress came back to our table again to tell us that other customers are waiting that we should hurry up. We got up and left. I have never saw such a disrespect and nasty behavior like that in my life. Horrible customer service and disgusting food. Please don’t ever try to go to their restaurant you definitely regret it. Save yourself some time.
