Review by Kristoffer Wunsch

I recently enjoyed a delightful meal at Shewa Ethiopian Restaurant! The warm welcome from the owner set the tone for a cozy evening. We ordered the meat and veggie combo, and it was a feast for the senses - beautifully presented and bursting with flavors.

The sambusas were a perfect start, followed by the spiced Kitfo and fresh injera. The calming music in the background added to the relaxed atmosphere. Overall, an authentic Ethiopian experience worth sharing with friends! 🌟
