Food was great but we had to wait about 20 minutes before being seated, although we had a reservation.
Additionally, we had a full 40 minutes of waiting between the appetizers & the main dish.

It felt like the place was understaffed or badly managed or both.
I feel sorry for the bussing & serving crew.

Had the tasting menu, if you are new to Ethiopian cuisine, would suggest to take this. The portions are enough. Some of the items could have been better. Overall a good place to visit. It gets quite full, reservation is recommended.
