At Axum Ethiopian Restaurant, we enjoyed a delightful lunch experience. The welcoming atmosphere made it easy to dive into the incredible flavors of authentic Ethiopian cuisine. We opted for the veggie combo, which was bursting with spices and freshness.

The injera was exceptional, perfectly complemented our shared dishes. Plus, the fast service meant we were in and out without feeling rushed. A solid place for solo dining or a laid-back meal with friends. Can't wait to return for dinner and try the cocktails! 🍹
