So happy we decided to go here! The Garlic Ginger Steak Satay appetizer was fantastic! The meat was perfectly cooked and very... flavorful. I ordered the Red Curry Fish Tacos without the aoli and they were fabulous! The fish was moist and tasted amazing.Will definitely have them again and soon! The Ethiopian Injera Plate with Chicken doro way was special, definitely a must try.The different items on the plate were extremely flavorful with a rich depth of flavor. There was a little heat, but not to muchat all. Very much looking forward to many returns, including trying their weekend Brunch! Read more
It’s a local eatery that relocated a door or two down the road from a former location. I do like the idea they have… the... ethnic foods in this less than ethnic area. However, they run out of food often and that’s annoying. I went a few days agofor brunch and they closed early for a staff meeting. Like ok.. y’all close early on Sunday anyway- you could have waiteduntil after hours to hold that meeting. I found it to be unprofessional to me. I also ordered takeout here and the bagsripped. Luckily I was at my front door or my $35 plate of food would have been on the concrete. Unfortunately they do haveroaches roaming around their establishment, so keep that in mind. The drinks are ok. I’m a champagne/wine kinda woman.. I didenjoy their tropical mimosas during lunch. Lunchtime they have drinks half off, however this is only on Saturdays and I’m notsure if this is a limited time deal or not. We went to brunch a few weeks back… my honey said the French toast wasundercooked. So he didn’t finish it. I felt the biscuits were too thick as well as dry. The gravy wasn’t flavorful enoughto cover up the ignore the thickness. It is relatively cozy inside so call ahead if you’re planning to sit down and eat withmore than 2 people. The seating is a little odd as well. They do offer outdoor seating if you’re into that. The food is goodfor the most part. I do miss their old menu, but I understand change happens from time to time. Overall, I would recommend youat least try their food. Idk about sitting down to eat though... I‘ve done it. But it’s your choice. Happy eating my loves! Read more
We were passing through Albany NY - and stayed downtown. We decided on dinner at Umana Yana since it had several vegetarian... dishes on the menu. We had the tofu satay and it was delicious. The tofu was nicely seasoned and lightly fried so that it had aslightly crisp exterior. It was served on kebabs over a bed of rice. Clearly a lot of love went into the making of this dish!Yum.

My table of 2 ordered the yucca puffs as an appetizer, which were well seasoned, soft on the inside and crispy on the outside.... For our main dishes we ordered the red curry fish tacos and the injera plate with chicken. Everything was super tasty, and funto eat. I think my favorite part of the meal was the fish tacos. This was a great experience because everything tasted amazingwhile also being easy to share. The servers were very kind and attentive as well. I enjoyed the experience of eating here andwill be back again for sure! Read more

The key to this place is takeout. Excellent food, both in quality and uniqueness. The injera bread platter with veggies and/or... tofu is so popular they sell out almost daily. Since moving to their new location just one door up, however, the ambiance isnonexistent— atrocious lighting so bad I almost insisted we leave, hard chairs with no cushions, cramped seating, and anoverall stark & cold atmosphere that reminded me of a grade school cafeteria that just threw up some africana decor on the wallsto seem cool. I will probably be ordering injera from this joint but it will most definitely be delivery. Read more
