Rating and reviews
"This was my first Ethiopian food experience and truly it lived up to allllll of the reviews previously shared. I loved the spices, the sour bread is to die for. The veggies are fresh and tasty. The portions are quite impressive, so if you're only interested in small bites, be prepared to keep left overs."

"I usually ask them to pack the sauce and then enjera separately, they follow my instructions all the time. Their food is so testy, they also have plain enjera for sale. Love it"
