Quiet spot with amazing service and incredibly tasty food! Gonna ask for extra spice next time but it was delicious getting to... taste it as it was usually prepared! Read more

I came super early in the afternoon. There were two delightful children playing and the sounds of a toddler and an infant to me... were like music to my ears. It conveyed a sense of family, and to me, therefore, trust. I transport pets and so I have had theopportunity to sample Ethiopian food around the country many, many times. I was delighted at the opportunity to sample a newvenue. I found it by doing a Google search for vegan food. This place does not disappoint. I knew before I ordered the placewas going to be outstanding. Just the smell alone as you walked in the front door put you in a delightfully happy mood. I gotthe vegan sampler platter for about $17 plus tax. It has like five or six different dishes along with the teff bread which theycall it the other name, injera. I also got an appetizer that ended up being reminiscent of spanakopita. zOMG! This isdefinitely among my top ONE or TWO Ethiopian restaurants experiences. Outstanding taste. Outstanding consistency. Outstandingflavors oh my gosh, the variety is fresh from dish to dish to dish to dish. Outstanding high quality from dish to dish to dish.Nothing was too salty or over spiced. I have no idea what the dish name is for the six dishes I just ate but I knew know theteff bread was outstanding. Anywho... The cabbage was cooked down tender and was mildly spiced with a curry that was a niceoffset to the red lentils which didn't hurt this guy but had some kick. The yellow lentils were milder but still had a strongspice. They spinach... and I think it was onion and carrot ... was really mild, fresh, and it paired perfectly with the injera,as did everything honestly. Frankly I don't really know what all else was on the plate, all I know is it all worked very welltogether, it was all vegan except for the appetizer which was vegetarian. And it was all top notch in every way. Five Noms up ina circle. I hate it when the injera bread is all sour. That means they didn't do it right in my opinion. Read more

My daughter and I came to try Ethiopian cuisine for the first time and it was delightful. The food is delicious, the service... just great. The place is small and intimate with a very nice menu that includes many vegan options. We look forward to comingback. Read more

Our family has never had the cuisine of the region and we were all surprised at just how delicious everything was! We shared 3... entrees and an appetizer and had plenty to eat, even our seventeen year old who is usually unfillable. We will definitely beback! (We will try to try some pix before we devour it all?)

I came here with my teen for dinner, and it was AMAZING. The flavors are so unique and delicious. My son has a big appetite, and... he managed to get full before his meal was gone. The pricing was reasonable. It seems to be a husband and wife team that runsthe entire operation. They were so kind and helpful. We?ll definitely be coming back! Wish I took pictures, but it was half gonebefore I thought of it! Read more

This was my first time ever having Ethiopian food and this place exceeded my anticipation!! I ate the food too quick to even... take a picture. The meat and sides were all so flavorful and the blend of spices was unlike anything I?ve had before (and I?vehad a lot of food! ????) My boyfriend and I split a main dish and added 3 veggie sides and both of us left full, with our totalonly coming out to $25 !!!? Our waiter seemed to be manning the front of house and cooking in the back, yet was still so kindand as attentive as possible. Obviously very hard working. Will definitely be back! EDIT: I went back a second time and thistime I actually grabbed a pic! ???? Read more
