Oh my goodness… AMAZING!!! absolutely delicious food and great staff. First time trying Ethiopian food and the only thing I can complain about is that I have not tried this before. We shared the veggie and meat platter. Perfect for two people! I will be coming back.

At first i was hesitant to try Ethiopian food because i heard it was spicy, but I am adding this place to my list of faves because the food was so good! Ethiopian music was playing in the background and the whole ambiance was entertaining and welcoming!

I’m a vegetarian and was wondering if they had some options i could try. I saw on the menu they had a veggie combo so i ordered that for take out. They were really quick with nice service and the green spinach and lentils turned out to be very flavorful.

The customer service was really awesome and the food that was served was a 10/10, would definitely recommend for anyone that’s curious on trying Ethiopian food or you miss the taste of real Ethiopian food to go here 🙂

I recently visited Dire Dawa Ethiopian restaurant and unfortunately, the service was a complete disappointment. Although the ambiance was welcoming, the slow night following Valentine’s Day didn’t justify the complete lack of attention I received from the server. I sat there for 15 minutes before anyone approached me and when I finally asked for water, it took 25 minutes for the server to even acknowledge my request.
