I was recommended this place and so glad I tried it! The food was absolutely delicious. The spices were brought from Ethiopia to flavor the tasty dishes and days are devoted to making the wonderful meals and Ethiopian wine that we thoroughly enjoyed. I can’t end this review without thanking my wonderful host Asmeret who did a phenomenal job explaining the meals, drinks and the culture with my husband and I. Asmeret was passionate about the business and you can tell that their family runs this business with love. I am looking forward to returning to Teff and recommend this place to anyone in search of delicious Ethiopian food like they’ve never had before! I also recommend this place to anyone who loves leaving restaurants with leftovers. The portion sizes are nice and large, the prices were very reasonable and my leftovers were just as amazing as when I had the meal at the restaurant.

I love this restaurant! The food is amazing and we always leave planning our next visit. The vegetarian dishes are so full of flavor and an excellent choice is you are vegetarian or are not (I am not and these options are superb for omnivores such as myself ). The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable about the different options available. Whenever I am in the area, this is where I want to go for food. I’ve made myself hungry writing this and now I am thinking about my next visit!

I have tried one Ethiopian restaurant in New Haven and one in Brooklyn and Teff of Stamford is certainly my favorite!

Amazing both in person and for takeout! We had dinner at Teff last night and were blown away. I’ve had Ethiopian many times before in other cities, and this place was amazing! The service was as good as the food. The owner even saw us looking for a parking spot on the street and moved his car for us. (They do not have their own parking – it’s all on street).

Amazing food with great ethnic flavors! Got the meat sampler and both the meat and vegetable dishes were delicious! Would highly recommend to anyone! My only request would be more dessert options other than ice cream. Something warm and sweet for dessert would be nice.

First time at Teff and first time eating Ethiopian food. I love how they embrace the culture with pictures from Ethiopia. The food was delicious and the waiter was very kind and helpful. The hot tea was probably the best tea I’ve ever had. The aroma filled the air with the spices in the tea. Will definitely be back.

Loved this place. It’s more for the food experience and not dining. They get busy and occupied very fast. The food options are great and decent prices. If you want to experience a good Ethiopian cuisine- head over to this place and enjoy great options of Injera. Loved their options of tasting for two!!

This place is nothing short of amazing. I firstly want to point out and give credit to the wonderful staff. The gentleman who helped us gave us recommendations and guided us through this new experience. Now the food, was amazing ! I’ve never had Ethiopian food before and I will now be having it all the time. We did the vegan tasting option , we were able to try everything and there wasn’t a single thing we didn’t love. I highly recommend coming here for a great cozy time.

First time eating Ethiopian food. It will not be my last. The vegan sampler was amazing. The bread used to eat with, even better. Fresh, healthy and obviously tasty, one of the best dining experiences, in recent memory.
