Great price; It's also really great to go during Ramadan because you get the whole restaurant to yourself.The food itself seems pretty hit or miss, the first time it was really good, but then the quality mysteriously dipped hugely.They don't take google pay though, but they'll let you leave and then call in later with a card.

We ordered the takeout on June 18 on Saturday and picked up/paid $29.70 with VISA. Guess what? The charge was posted as $39.70. They charged $10 additionally without consent. We have been dining/ ordering takeouts numerous times in the past , but it never happened before.We are so disappointed and violated. At that time the restaurant was festive and bright with a beautiful bridal shower going on. However, this unthinkable happened.CUSTOMERS, BE AWARE AND CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS/ CREDIT CARD CHARGES!!Such a cozy restaurant with good food , but this time my experience was so upsetting!

If you like Ethiopian food, eat here. It's great. And they actually brought enough injera! If you've never had Ethiopian food, eat here. It's great. The spicy dishes are actually spicy, but they won't melt your face off. Can't wait to come back and try everything I didn't have this time.

First time trying Ethiopian food...wow just wow! Excellent food, excellent atmosphere. We dined outside on the courtyard, beautiful spot! Very clean restaurant nicely decorated. The food though was the star loved it!

I have been coming to Ethiopia Restaurant for the past four years and I cannot emphasize how amazing it is!! Their veggie combo is my favorite, my go-to comfort food. The staff is always attentive. The newly renovated outdoor patio is lovely!

Delicious food with generous portions. Not too spicy, salty, or greasy. The outdoor patio area is really lovely and pleasant on a nice day. It might've been the day we visited but we (party of 2) went in for lunch and came out 3 hours later because the service was very slow, and our food arrived 2 hour after we had ordered it. Still not sure what happened that day. We still enjoyed ourselves but I would be hesitant to revisit on a different day where I would not be able to wait that long for food to arrive.

I always call beforehand and they have it ready in 5 minutes. I get the vegetarian plate combo where you can choose what you want! In this pic is 2x lentils (red), 2x split peas(yellow), 1x collard greens. I love how it’s so easy to eat with your hands. The lentils are my favorite. also, I’m not vegan, but my vegan friends absolutely love this place

Best meal we’ve had in a while! Everything is delicious!

A nice place for introducing Ethiopian food, with mild spices and white table linens. Friendly staff.Ordered the alicha fitfit which was big for one, and could have easily been a light meal for two. The taste, however, was a little too subtle when expecting bold flavors common in East African cooking.Has outdoor seating on the back patio (covered).

Great food. They have a back patio which is covered and has heaters, and we we've eaten there three times during the pandemic. We ate there one string a huge rainstorm, and dry and comfortable but had to wear a jacket.
