One of the best dining experiences we’ve had in a very long time! It’s such a great learning experience as well. The staff was extremely pleasant. It’s obviously a very popular location as people were standing in line waiting for tables. Everything was run like a well oiled machine. We had a few different dishes to share, spicy chicken was really good. It took a couple tries to get a hang of how to eat the food, but it was so fun! It’s definitely something we’ll look back on and remember fondly.

I really loved the vibe of the place. You get to choose between traditional vs conventional seating. A little too date-night ambiance for when I visited with a friend. The waiter was cheerful and knowledgeable about the dishes, as one would expect but seldom encounter: she was the best part. Food was great, take care to order flavor combinations that complement each other. Nice place to visit with friends.

I'd never had Ethiopian food. This was interestingly delicious. You must be comfortable eating with your hands absolutely no utensils saving the planet 1 fork at a time. The foods comes all on one very large plate pretty much call communal eating. AKA sharing the LOVE. This place is great for vegetarians.

Got a delicious vegetarian combo that came with plenty of excellent Injera! My favorite thing, however, might have been the spinach and ricotta appetizer. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
