I don't remember the specific dishes we had, but it didn't even matter because every single bite was delicious! I had never had Ethiopian food before, but I will definitely be having it again. I'm so glad I got to try something new from an authentic, locally owned spot!
The BEST & most AUTHENTIC Ethiopian food on the entire island of Montreal!
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...
My first & only time trying Ethiopian food. Such an amazing experience. I left stuffed. Food took a little longer than I would like, but it's totally worth the wait, we we're also a big group of people. The couple running the place are very sweet.
Excellent! Ethiopian food is one of the most delicious culinary experiences across the globe. They will bring you a large circular plate full of rich flavor with the soft & spongy injera which will be enough to scoop up your entire plate. You can bring your own wine here, if that's something you like.
Best food in Montreal! Felt so welcomed by friendly service & the most delicious Ethiopian food.
Without a doubt the best Ethiopian food I've ever had. Owners are very kind, the service is great, the prices are very reasonable. Delicious & delightful.
Excellente cuisine éthiopienne dans une atmosphère simple & détendue. Si vous avez très faim, **arrivez tôt** car les mets sont cuisinés par une seule dame & servis suivant l'ordre des commandes. Autrement dit, si quatre clients ont commandés avant vous, vous risquez fort d'attendre votre repas pendant plus d'une heure. (Apportez-vous de la bière...) Cela dit, je peux vous assurer que votre attente sera toujours récompensée par un repas exquis! Longue vie à ce petit'trou dans le mur', qui est l'un de mes restaurants préférés de Montréal. Je vous le recommande vivement! -- Excellent Ethiopian cuisine in a simple & relaxed atmosphere. If you are very hungry, **arrive early** because the dishes are cooked by only one lady, & served in the order of arrival. In other words, if four clients have ordered before you, you stand a very high chance to be fed more than one hour later. (Bring some beer...) However, rest assured that your wait will be rewarded by a superb meal! Long live this small'hole-in-the-wall'. It is one of my favourite restaurants in Montréal, & I will never recommend it too strongly.
