Been here many times over the last four years and as confirmed by my visit yesterday, their quality is consistently excellent! The smell wafting from the kitchen as you walk in is incredible, making your mouth water and preparing you for an extremely flavorful banquet. Very friendly staff as well who really make you feel welcome. The lamb I had yesterday was some of the most succulent, juicy, and rich meat I’ve had in quite some time, cooked to absolute perfection. Every time I come here I get a vegetarian sampler platter as well and yesterday’s was fantastic, the collards were phenomenal.

I’m so mad at myself for not going there much sooner. The food was so delicious. The staff was very friendly that I feel belonged. The photo I took is Addis Special. Perfect for two or three people. I’ll definitely be back!!

Our daughter and her boyfriend invited us to dinner here tonight. It was our first Ethiopian meal but definitely won’t be our last. The beef sambusa appetizer was fantastic and deliciously spiced. I had the Lamb Tibs with sides of red lentils and cabbage. Everything was great and mildly spiced. We also tried an Ethiopian beer called Habesha Cold Gold which was very good. Great service and food!

A “mom and pop” owned authentic Ethiopian restraunt. The owners and cooks are the same and are actually from Addis Ababa. They are very friendly. The wife and I split the beef sambusa (appetizer) and the Addis Ababa Special. All very good. We topped it off with the Ethiopian coffee for two. Very pleasant experience for a fair price.

I’ve never had Ethiopian food before so this was my first introduction. It was absolutely amazing. They roast their coffee right there. Add a dash of cinnamon to it for some extra good flavor. I haven’t had the $15 coffee ceremony, but I intend to. The food itself was second to none. Meat was very tender, spiced to perfection.

I tried it for the first time tonight from a friends reference. Some of the best damn food I ever had. I ordered the beef samusa and doro wot with dinech wot and gomen. I’m glad to say that I was blown away, so much delicious flavor and spice. I cannot wait for my next meal at this place!

Everything was fantastic!! We got the beef sambusas for our appetizer, and they were to die for! For dinner, we shared the gored gored, the lamb we’t, lentil stew, chickpeas, potatoes, and collard greens. We ate ourselves nearly sick because it was all so good, we couldn’t stop! Will definitely be back!!
