I’d been craving Ethiopian food for a long time and we picked this place on a whim while visiting. The decor, the murals, the ambiance, it all felt so comforting and welcoming, and Sahay was wonderful and cheerful while serving us. We ordered the lunch special for $25.99 and some Chicken Sambuusas to start. We asked Sahay to pick the 5 items on the special and she did not disappoint. We had Misir Wat, Gomen Alicha, Beef Tibsi, Alicha Wot, Doro Wat, and enough Injera to satisfy even me. The flavors were so spicy, fragrant, delicious, and the meat was tender and juicy. One lunch special was more than the both of us could eat. Best Ethiopian food I’ve had in years! The Beef Tibsi was my favorite and my husband now understands why I’m always craving it.
Absolutely loved this place! The food was incredibly flavorful and tasted fresh, every bite was delicious. We tried the Alicha Wot, Tibsi (Awaze), and Zilzil Tibs, and all three were amazing. The flavors were rich, everything was well-seasoned, and cooked perfectly. The service was great too, our server was attentive, helpful, and didn’t make us feel awkward about never having tried this cuisine before. The restaurant itself was clean and had such a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. It truly feels like a hidden gem, mom-and-pop style spot. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something different and full of flavor. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Tried the meat and veggie combo and they both tasted spectacular! Each of the meat and veggie toppings were flavorful and unique paired with the injera which is light, fluffy, and airy. Staff were friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Also ordered the Ethiopian traditional coffee and the staff usually gives it to you after you have finished your meal. It made a lot of sense when I tried it because the coffee was like a palate cleanser while it had a nice strong scent and flavor to it. Definitely recommend trying this place out.
