The food is fantastic. We had Kitfo (my favorite) & Lamb with Berbere spices. The ambiance is wonderful & the staff is very attentive to your needs.
The best Ethiopian restaurant we have ever been to (we have been to many, & always come back to here......)

My daughter & I celebrated her 19th birthday at the restaurant. She has a vegan tasting menu & I had the kitfo tartare. The last time I was here was 10 years ago, & the quality of the food is just as good now as it was then!

Food & drinks were excellent! Servers were very nice, but not enough staff, so service was a quite slow. We had the two courses tasting which was a great way to try multiple dishes, & the portions were generous. Would definitely recommend it.
