Bonne nourriture! La déception est qu'on avait réservé une semaine avant & qu'on s'est retrouvés assis dehors tout près de la rue. On nous a dit que tout le monde avait réservé & qu'il n'y avait plus de place à l'intérieur. On a par contre vu des gens arriver après nous & avoir une place à l'intérieur pour le même nombre que nous. Très ordinaire comme accueil. Ce n'était pas.comme ça avant!

I try to come here every year for my b-day because I just love it. The food is amazing & the staff is nice. The decor is lovely & you should try their drinks! I really love the texture of injera, who needs utensils when you have finger licking good food? If you've never been here, you need to try this place. Every meal has a unique but flavorful taste.

This is the second time I have ate here. The food is great I like the setting. My only criticism is that between the appetizer & main we waited over an hour. The turn over could have been better I think.
