Je suis allée à l'hôtel Kutuma, annexé au restaurant. Personnel très courtois & accueillant. J'ai été upgradé à la suite sans demander…juste wow! C'était inattendu 🤩. Merci pour la belle expérience!

We ordered takeout. $120 for three people - 3 tiny portions & a mountain of bread. The food was so spicy it was almost inedible. The tiny salads were mostly vinegar. Never again.

This was my first time at an Ethiopian restaurant. The food was good, but service was slow even though the place was empty. We had to keep flagging the waiter, & other tables who came after us were served faster. Overall, not the best first impression I don't think I'd return based on service alone.
