This place was amazing! The service was very friendly, the food was delicious, and everything came out quickly. There is so much food that there's no way you can finish it all. Definitely best to go with a group so you can order more dishes and share. Highly recommend.
Absolutely phenomenal food. We kinda dropped in with a party of 9 without a reservation but they still seated us and made us excellent food. The wait staff was very friendly and the cook came out to thank us when we left too. Even helped us pack up the food. Will recommend and I plan on coming back soon
My first time trying Ethiopian food, something I've been meaning to try for a decade, and it was truly outstanding. I had the lamb dish Yebeg Tibs, and my friend had Chicken Tibs w/ Rice, which I also tried. I can't wait to bring my dad to eat here. Staff was super kind, friendly, and attentive, yet not overly so, and they quickly processed our check when we indicated that we had a show to catch at nearby Theatre in the Round in a few minutes. Highly recommend!
What can I say, I loved the food here. We had the combination for four, everything on the plate was so delicious! One thing to point out is that the appertizer roll is the same pancake bread you will have with the main dish, so wish we had ordered the other options.
I got the roll sampler, and the "Half-n-Half" which is Kitfo and Derek Tibs. It was delicious and the helpings are HUGE. Definitely could have fed 2 people easily. I really liked the Derek Tibs and the injera was sooo good! The server was super nice.
