Review by Ansley Koelpin

September 28, 2024

Sunset Cafe is a hidden gem on Rainier Ave! Nestled in a cozy spot, it offers incredible Ethiopian dishes at wallet-friendly prices. I highly recommend trying the misir wot - it's flavorful and hearty!

The Doro Begomen and Lamb Tibs were also impressive, with generous portions that'll leave you satisfied. The casual vibe and friendly service made my visit enjoyable, even with the loud music. 😊

Plus, the coffee and tea selection is top-notch! Don’t let the exterior deter you; this place is worth the visit! I’ll definitely be back for more! 🍽️
