If you’re looking for top-notch, authentic, fresh, and classic Ethiopian food, look no further! The man can cook! This was absolutely the best kitfo we ever had! The injera is the real deal. It’s all super reasonable, friendly, and a calming atmosphere for lunch and/or dinner. The owners are incredibly friendly and personable.

I can’t recommend Try Me! enough. The food is absolutely fantastic: made fresh and with care. The owners are incredibly kind and talented culinary wizards. I’ve ordered takeout here many times during COvID and the quality is on par with what you’d get dining in. A true hidden gem in Gresham and the Portland area at large.

I have to agree with some of the other reviews, the spices are amazing, without being overpowering. The injera was perfect for holding big bites of delicious lentils. I had the Bayayenetu (vegetarian combination) and it will last me at least two meals. It’s hardy, and healthy, and I will definitely be eating here often.

Truly, the BEST authentic cuisine you’ll find in Gresham! Try the Doro Tibs, it’s delicious! Lamb, beef, chicken and vegetarian options are available. Haven’t tried the Ethiopian beer yet, but will. Highly recommend this little gem in Gresham.

I haven’t had Ethiopian since moving to the PNW and so my son and I made a plan to grab some while I was visiting him in Portland for the weekend.

First time trying Ethiopian food and it wasn’t bad at all. Not quite sure what the name of the dish was but it had steak and veggies in it..

We enjoyed our dinner. I especially like the vegitarian options. It won’t break your bank eating here and will fill you full. I highly recommend trying this restaurant. I especially like the bread.

This little hole in the wall was a find. My first experience with Ethiopian food and I’m sorry it is so far away. The place is small and intimate, the staff friendly and helpful. The food was very very good. We ordered the chef choice meat dish and weren’t disappointed. The spices and sauces were great, but the shining star dish was the bread. Highly recommend trying this great little joint.

Was excited to find an Ethiopian Restaurant near where I was staying. It was all I hoped plenty of food full of flavor. Great option for Vegans and Carnivores alike.
