Red Sea Ethiopian & Eritrean Cuisine is a delightful find in Oakland! 🌟 The perfect spot for lunch or dinner, I took a friend here for their first Ethiopian experience, and it exceeded all expectations.

We shared the Red Sea Combo Platter, which offered an array of flavors, and the injera was incredibly fresh! My lamb was tender and seasoned beautifully, while my friend loved the fish with spinach.

I appreciate the cozy vibe, with a separate bar area, making it a versatile dining destination. Plus, the fast service was a bonus! Can't wait to return for more... 🥘
