Reviews for Makeda's Cuisine in Eugene, OR
I jump at any opportunity to have Ethiopian food, but this was a decidedly underwhelming experience. $15 for a small portion of... flavorless lentils and potatoes, with scant traces of carrot and cabbage, plus one cold soggy wonton. The injera was decent, butthe complete lack of flavor in the alecha and lentils was disappointing. Extra star for the friendly service. Read more
I LOVED IT! And the lovely human helping us was so kind. We devoured every bite and oMg I went home and am still craving it! I... suggest going here if you are into flavorful, slice-filled goodness. Can?t go wrong, quick bite and affordable. Read more
Wow!! This was my first time eating Ethiopian food and I was blown away! The alecha tasted amazing and was perfectly presented,... the krispy pastry thrown in on the side was also delicious. Everything was presented beautifully. 10/10 cannot wait to come backand try some of their other dishes!! Read more
I tried Makedas at the Eugene Saturday market. They were a very popular and busy vendor. The food is well spiced and you can... watch it being cooked in front of you. The family cooking is friendly too. Portions were generous and I left full after tryingthe beef tibs. It was great to try Ethiopian cuisine and look forward to trying their other dishes. Read more
I simply do not have enough good things to say about this company! From the delicious food that sells out every where I see it;... to the humbly on point, bold and beautiful media presence; to the amazing, kind, Eritrean-Ethiopian family that owns it (AS afamily! That?s good business and a living legacy). Makeda is a stand out in Eugene. Try it if you haven?t. Go visit today ifit?s been a while! Tell them Angie loves them and encouraged you to visit!

Oh heck yes! I'm still eating this amazing food and couldn't wait any longer to review. Absolutely recommend this to anybody... who is looking for good grub. Vegan friendly! The lady working was super nice, large portions and super well priced. I willdefinitely be returning. Well deserved 5 stars. Read more
There are not enough kind things I can say about the people who work here. As an Ethiopian myself, living in Eugene is tough... when it comes to connecting with home. There are no Ethiopian restaurants in the area! The lovely staff here not onlyaccommodated my homesickness by providing wonderful food, but the conversations and the passion of the two owners reallyresonated with me. This is definitely a place that reminds me of home and I am so glad I found it! I recommend giving this placea try if you?ve never had Ethiopian or Eritrean cuisine because this is one of the best introductions you?ll ever get. The foodis absolutely delicious and flavorful! I would rate it above five stars if I could. Read more
Great food, great service, very nice people. Meat and vegan options and the injera was fresh, some of the best I?ve had.
