Review by Jeanette Cormier

Ethiopic Restaurant offers a delightful dive into Ethiopian cuisine. I visited recently and tried the sambusas and the beef stew - both were exceptional, especially paired with their soft injera.

The ambiance strikes a nice balance between casual and intimate, making it ideal for a cozy dinner. Service was friendly and efficient, though we did notice a bit of a wait for our main course.

The honey wine was a nice touch, not overly sweet. I'll surely return for more of their comfort food! 🍽️
