I was visiting a friend & was raving about ethiopian cuisine. Then we found this restaurant near us. Along with my friends son, we visited this place on a lazy Sunday afternoon. It was pretty empty, & the guy who showed us to a table was nice enough. He placed a few "white" napkins in front of us to wipe our hands with. Unfortunately, the main waitress serving us seemed to have other ideas. As soon as she saw it, she promptly & very rudely whisked the whole tray away while murmuring how we didn't actually "need" those. Next, when we ordered 2 separate meals & also separated Injera, she still piled our meal on one & brought a measly helping of the Injera for which we had paid 5 Canadian dollars. Upon my enquring if we could get some extra she point blank refused. My question is, if we ordered two meal platters, shouldn't we have been given two separate Injeras for that I had thought that in the service industry, guests are important. To our chagrin, we were made to feel like idiots. Maybe it's Montreal hospitality at work here since we definitely cannot speak French. How unfortunate. We carried a bad experience from this place. Food was average. I have had better Ethiopian.

Great ambience & absolutely tasty food! Went with a few friends last night & we all enjoyed our meal & the presentation. The only thing that was a bit of a let down was the quality of the service - the staff did not seem pleasant & seemed a bit cold when we asked questions about the menu. Compared to a lot of other restaurants, I felt the service quality was mediocre. But overall, a must try if you are interested to explore Ethiopian cuisine.
