Food was excellent. Service was great. The tea is delicious and so was the coffee. You can book a private coffee ceremony. We were a big group (13) and they accommodated us without any problem. This a family owned restaurant with amazing food. Worth the detour.

We came in expecting a bit of a wait and generally have a lot of patience – but did not expect to wait an entire hour and a half between giving our order and seeing a server or employee at the table again. The dining room was not busy – there were two other tables ahead of us and one who left within about ten minutes of our arrival.

This place was amazing! The dining was clean and beautiful. The presentation was great. And the food was outstanding. AND the prices were super reasonable. If you like Ethiopian food, I definitely recommend this. Maybe the best place in town now

Don’t judge a book by its cover. The location isn’t great, but beyond that, the food will transport you from Nebraska to Ethiopia in the aroma of herbs and spices, then in your taste buds, it’s like nothing you’ve had before. The customer service was exceptional. Everything was made to order. Just try it!

Hands down the best Ethiopian food in Nebraska (and several other states). Highly recommend the vegan combo if unsure where to start, even if you are not vegan/vegetarian. Best place for a healthy and filling meal at a great price. Will come back often!
