The food had no flavor and the waitress was rude and seemed irritated the whole time we were there. I've been to many Ethiopian food restaurants in the city and this was one of the worst ones I've ever been to. I went with my friend who is Ethiopian and she agreed it wasn't good either.

If you haven’t tried this cuisine before then this is the perfect place to try. It seems like a lot of locals frequent this spot and for good reason. I got their beef and veggie platter and it was really good. The flavors weren’t crazy overpowering and it seemed healthy too. I like how it comes in a big platter to share. This was a home run but I wish they had lamb when I went. Guess I’ll have to come again. Oh and the sambusa was very flaky and crispy. Highly recommend starting off with those.

Unassuming but smart restaurant. The ambience is very basic but tasteful. The food was fresh and hot off the stove, and delicious. We haven’t been to too many Ethiopian restaurants but would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to try their cuisine.

We live in Denver and have some friends coming from Nevada who love Ethiopian food. We took them to Lucy and we loved it. The veggie combo was amazing and we added the shiro (it was my favorite). The restaurant is very clean and has a very nice atmosphere. We'll come back more often because we rate it as an outstanding restaurant in town. I strongly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to try this type of food or to someone who already love it.

I was craving Ethiopian food and this hit the spot. Everything was fantastic! ?

The food was awesome. It was my first time eating Ethiopian food and we met some friends here because they love it. We all really enjoyed it, especially the Shiro. You will be Very full when you leave, just a heads up.

The most delicious Ethiopian food I've had in a long time. Everything tasty and flavorful. I've had Ethiopian food in LA and tried the one in Colorado Springs, this is the best I've had. I wonder if Ethiopian food in Denver is just better than everywhere else.

Great food at reasonable prices. Try the lambdish with bones that comes in the black pot as the very friendly waitress that usually works the restaurant by herself. Also the Ethiopian beer St George is very good there. Always a good sign when Ethiopians local there are the main clients of the business. Also great place for dates.

11 out of 10 stars. My new favorite ethiopian spot. This place blew my mind, loved every bit of it. Amazing food and flavors, had a vegetarian platter with a spicy lamb dish. Soo good at such fair prices!. Will be back soon for more.
