I was in the Alexandria area and know that area very well as I use to live across the street from Sora. I was looking for restaurants and this happen to pop up as I typed in restaurants near me. So what brought me to this restaurant were the highly posted reviews. The cleanliness was impeccable. The food was extremely tasty and delicious. In fact I tried to order a second plate however the owner was busy with another customer. Sora was well deserved this 5 star review. YUM yum!

This place creates really good Ethiopian food. I got the kitfo, raw, some stuffed peppers, some lentils, and extra order of teff injera. I highly recommend this place. Cheers! Pic shows qey sr (beets, potatoes, and carrots) and gored gored (raw beef cubes). One of the best gored gored I’ve had!

Great food! We ordered the beef tibs and veggie platter, and the food was excellent! So was the service. It felt like having a home cooked meal at a loving friend’s house! Loved the coffee too!

Great neighborhood location, very reasonably priced and the food is outstanding! Searing is limited to about 25, but carry out is available. Stop in for a meal or coffee and you will not be disappointed!

Everything was amazing! The owner took time to tell us about the cuisine. We’re new to the area and she talked to us for a while and gave good advice. Service was outstanding! This will be our new go-to spot for Ethiopian cuisine!
