I went here with two of my friends, one who happens to be of Ethiopian decent. I asked them if it passed their standards, and I quote«Ya, its bomb». What more can i say? Tasted fresh and the guy serving us was mad polite.

Had a great lunch here yesterday. I ordered the vegetarian sampler and my friend ordered the doro wat. Both are served with a good amount of injera bread– both the traditional sort as well as a darker version that contains some quinoa, according to the owner. We ate our meal traditional-style, without cutlery, the injera serving as the vehicle for the rest of the food. The food was outstanding and affordable, ingredients were fresh, bread well-fermented and cooked and properly textured, etc. It was very flavorful and filling, without being too heavy. Bathrooms are bare-bones but clean. Décor is simple as is the furniture. You come here for the food, not the ambiance. I’ll be back soon

Food was good and the platter is a lot more than it looks.

Simple review follows: food was super tasty, everything was delicious, and the price is fantastic. If you like Ethiopian, you will love this place. You aren’t coming here for the décor or the ambiance. Come for great food at a great price.

I checked in last night and complained about the delay in waiting for take away food but wanted to add a brief update. The food was delicious. Simple, flavourful, and so fresh. The woman at the restaurant was apologetic when we paid for our meals on a busy evening(it was Valentine’s). I still feel that they could improve their service: I wish someone had been able to answer my questions over the phone more clearly(is a platter intended for sharing or is it an individual meal?) and I wish that it hadn’t taken nearly 2-hours to prepare our meals. Though I’d still go back because the food was great and the people were lovely, in the end.

This restaurant was such a sweet surprise. They are rebuilding the road in the front of the restaurant so at first, we were not sure if they were closed or not. The inside is very modest but clean and the waitress was absolutely delightful. Sweet and helpful. Eating Ethiopian food is quite the experience. The food is served on these large crêpe like pancakes made of some sort of buckwheat like grain, you do not use cutlery, but eat everything with hands unless you request a fork. We had the regular and vegetarian lunch platters and both of them very tasty and very interesting. If you are ready to eat something delicious and exotic, this is the place to go! Thank you again Habesha!
