We loved each item, and then liked some even more! I was expecting more holeinthewall from the exterior, but it was fun sitting inside with some of the decorative features. Our server was sweet and helpful. Thanks for an amazing lunch!

We basically had the restaurant to ourselves. Our server was very friendly and quick to ask if we needed anything or were running low on things. The music added to the atmosphere. My favorite Ethiopian restaurant by far!

This place has some tasty dishes in a cozy atmosphere. We had the sambusa, zilzil tibs, and sampler platter for 4 people and had tons of leftovers. Vegetarians will find plenty of choices too. Its a great spot to explore the diverse flavors of Ethiopia and enjoy a memorable meal with friends or family.

This place is damn good. We were blown away by different dishes that we ordered one after the other. Tried Chicken tibs, Doro wot, the four vegan lentils and a lamb dish. All of them were fantastic. The waitress lady went above and beyond to help us decide what to order. Would highly recommend for fabulous Ethiopian food!
