Reviews

First time having Ethiopian and it was amazing! I could probably eat 20 of their sambusas and the lamb in my dish was so tender.
My husband is a spice fiend and he said his dish was the perfect balance of spiciness and flavor.
My kids were unimpressed with the offerings but that's on us to broaden their culinary horizons better.
Anyway.
Staff was very kind to us, I was out of my element so their hospitality was much appreciated.
Food was filling and so tasty and I definitely see us returning in the future.
Thanks!!

OMGGGG YOU HAVE TO GO HERE .
I have been craving Ethiopian food for a very long time.
I read so many reviews about having gluten-free injera.
I honestly did not believe it until I tried it and the picture was a meat sampler with two veggies on a gluten free injera.
We also ordered an appetizer the lentil dish it was gluten-free and it also came with a gluten-free injera.
It was so delicious.
I took the rest of my injera home to keep in my freezer lol.
Just a quick note, I have celiac disease after I went home, the acid was really hurting my stomach because I wasn't used to so much sauces :) but it was so Yummy and it went right away .
5/5 .
OH AND OUR SERVER WAS SO SWEET

Positively delightful! It was my first time trying Ethiopian cuisine and our server was friendly and patient with us.
Highly recommend the meat and vegetable sampler.
It could easily feed 3-4 people.
We had the plantains for an appetizer, best plantains I’ve ever had! Also tried the honey wine - I would recommend trying it at least once, comes in a cool glass.
We had both the gluten & gluten free injera (bread like food served with the meal) - both were delicious. Friendly staff, clean restaurant, reasonably priced, very positive experience.
