Bon service
Un peu d'attente avant d'être servie.
Un peu trop épicée à mon goût.
Très beau cadre.
J'ai apprécié & je recommande volontier.

Wonderful evening, the service & the menu items chosen were excellent! Normally we don't order dessert however when the waiter brought out sample tray, our eyes said yes - we were not disappointed - perfect ending to a delightful meal.

Such a great place ! I found it by chatting with an ethiopian taxi driver in Montreal. Very authentic cuisine, but not as spicy as the original, which would be unbearable for an occidental palate.
