The Ethiopian Restaurant is a hidden gem on Colfax Ave! 😍

I recently visited and ordered the middle-priced sample platter with lentils, goat, and chicken. Each dish was bursting with flavor! The cozy atmosphere makes it perfect for solo dining or with family.

Don’t let the modest décor fool you - the food is delicious and generously portioned. Remember to dive in with your hands and embrace the experience! 🌟 I’m already planning my next visit...!
