Food was so delicious, vibes were definitely different than your usual restaurant, felt like you were at your aunt & uncles house & they were cooking for you. But if you go with friends, bring some wine & maybe cards you'll have a great time.View more
The BEST & most AUTHENTIC Ethiopian food on the entire island of Montreal!View more
We went knowing that we would have to wait . we were prepared for it & brought cards & conversation. It was really nice to spend time in the space & with my family & I like that it's run by a family. The injera was very good! The best I have ever had by far! everything is made on the spot. Again the injera soaked up the food so good! I'm vegetarian, but my daughters are not I tried some of their bread that had soaked up the meat dishes & it was super delicious. Just good straight up vibes & quality food.View more

A little pricey, but the food was quite delicious & the cooks were quite friendly!View more
Mauvaise scène & les serveurs impolis. On avait commandé 3 assiettes - 2 viandes & une végétarienne. Ils nous avaient servi des trois en un plat sans nous expliquer les choses. Mon amie est végétarienne & elle ne peut pas manger de légumes parce que il est connectée avec des viandes. On ne croyait jamais que ça se peut arriver à cette situation. Quand on leur dit que c'est pas ça qu'on voulait, les serveurs menacent de l'appeler les flics. Trop mauvaise expérience & il ne nous a pas servi de l'eau. Les portions très petites pour les prix & mauvaise Ambiance.View more
Unassuming spot that is one of the best in the neighbourhood, serving flavourful, authentic, fresh food that's made with love & worth the wait. Lamb, ground beef, whitefish & lentil dishes were all highlights, served on a large platter with plenty of warm injera. The owners are so kind. & it's BYOBView more
Incredible food from the nicest hosts. An amazing meal - highly recommend!View more
Excellente qualité de cuisine, vraiment pas prétentieux. L'élément apportez-votre-vin est très apprécié.View more
This Restaurant is wonderful & the owners are very kind. I give them 5 stars because the food is simply delicious & I have no issue with the service system. For Caucasians expecting chain restaurant service, this place isn't for you. The service is kind & functions at its own pace: its all worth it, trust me. If you get'hangry' like me, take a quick snack before getting to the place. Sometimes they run out of a kind of meat, especially late at night: Michelin star restaurants do the same. I recommend getting one more dish than the party size, for example: If you're 4 people sharing a platter, get 5 dishes & share them. All the options are delicious, have fun exploring. I've been here with groups of 4 & even 11 (Drop by early & let them know you'd like to host a group, they'll let you know if they can do it & when in the evening).View more
Great & absolutely amazing food. The owners need to work on their customer service thoView more
Succulents. Le service est long (1h15h), mais vaut vraiment l'attente. Le meilleure resto que j'ai essayé à Montréal.View more
Le restaurant est sympa, l'ambiance est familiale mais malheureusement notre expérience n'a pas été la meilleure. Nous sommes arrivés tôt, seulement 2 tables étaient occupées & la nourriture a été servie 1h30 après. C'est très bon & véritablement "fait maison" mais les plats sont un peu chers pour la quantité servie. Peut-être qu'un peu de musique dans le fond serait plus convivial. Il faut également payer uniquement en argent comptant & ce n'est pas forcément clair à votre arrivée. Le personnel est sympathique mais le service laisse un peu à désirer.View more
Decided to try this out since it's in the neighborhood, & I like supporting local businesses. Also because the last Ethiopian restaurant I tried was a bit disappointing to say the least. In short, the food here was the BOMB dot com!! Bursting with flavors, & just the right portions, laid out on freshly-made injera. Sure: the place is not the fanciest, & the service is a bit slow (expect at least a 30-minute wait for your food). It's a mom & pop shop in its truest form; Mom & Pop (owners) are the only 2 employees I saw. But once you take your first bite, everything is forgiven. Definitely going back. Soon. & again. & again...View more
OMG!!! What a delicious discovery! The injara was heavenly light & fluffy & the dish (mix of tender meat stew, yellow peas, lentis (red were a little spicy & yellow were mild) cooked potatoes & carrots) was out of this world! The depth of flavours was indescribable! Everything was homemade, very reasonably priced, & served by the sweetest owners! I can't wait to go back!View more
