Reviews for Alem Ethiopian Village in Milwaukee, WI
We ordered some takeouts a few nights ago. The two salads were really refreshing. I loved the vinegar sauce. The taste of Ye... Tibs Firfir and Doro Wot was amazing, but there was only a single drum stick in the Doro Wot. It was too little chicken for fullsize chicken entree in my opinion. They give a huge amount of injera, which is good. However, the proportion of the overall dishis off for Doro Wot. The owner was really nice and the food was delicious, but slightly disappointed with the Doro Wot.Otherwise, I would have rated this place 5 stars. Read more
My first time ordering here and let me tell you, don?t sleep on them! Absolutely delicious and fresh. Additionally, the customer... service was superb. I ordered takeout, selecting their veggie variety platter (collard greens, lentils, etc) and I couldn?t waitto bring it home to enjoy. The portion is well enough for two people or for two meals for ~$17 after tax. WORTH EVERY CENT. Gofor it and don?t look back. Read more

Delicious food, nice location in Milwaukee. Great service. The only thing that would have been nice is if they would have... described what was on the plates, everything kind of blended together. Read more
Wonderful food, full of flavor, served in a classic setting, to be enjoyed using one's hands. Of course, utensils are available... by request. Diners have the choice of all the food for the table to be served in an oversized platters to be mixed and matchedtogether with injera bread family style or served individually. The result is an authentic experience. Service is very friendlyand helpful. Got food allergies? Welcome to Alem. They work on accomodating people with special needs. During the week avegan/vegetarian lunch buffet spread is open. Try this marvel of Ethiopian cuisine once, you will want to be back. Read more
A great introduction to Ethiopian cuisine. This was my first time trying Ethiopian food, so I can?t comment on authenticity, but... the hostess (and owner?) seemed very knowledgeable about the ingredients that went into the food, and how the food is preparedin Ethiopia. I didn?t ask, but I wouldn?t be surprised is she was from Ethiopia originally. The food itself was delicious andfun to eat. I got the ?Carnivore? family dish with the cabbage (v5) and the jalapeño chickpeas (v8) for the sides. The food wasfull of spices and flavor without being overly spicy (in my opinion). My only negative comment is that the meat was a little dryand tough. Otherwise, I would highly recommend trying out this restaurant with friends or family. The plate that I got said itwas good for two, but it could easily feed three. Read more
Really super nice location with a friendly store owner and the best part is that the vegetarian combo is really tasty!
