Delicious as always & my 6 guests were very pleased as well. Some never had Ethiopian before & promised to come back. Great service by Camille as well despite a very busy evening.

this place is absolutely wonderful. From the live music played in the corner on a white grand piano to the ambiance, the server, the moist hand towel smelling of soft spices to the great tasting Ethiopian food & not to mention the Ethiopian coffee...I cant not seem to say enough..I will definitely go back there & will recommend it to any one who wants to listen to me. An absolutely must go to place in Montreal.

Follow your nose! Even the napkins are scented with warm spice.
Service was prompt, efficient & bilingual. The atmosphere is cosy & appropriate for a broad range of groups: couples, families & groups of friends.
Food wasn't just Ethiopian, it seemed that there were other African counties represented. We had a nice South African Pinot Noir with the sampling platter for two. The vegan appetizer star was the chick pea lemon - hummus-like spread. & my favourite meat main was the chicken. My husband also liked the lamb & beef.
Communal style plate for the tasting menus for two with little teff crepes to capture the food up & eat it.

We took the tasting menu consisting of the following appetizers:
1-Kitfo : Filet mignon tartare with Ethiopian spices (Good)
2-Bouticha : Chick peas pureed with garlic & lemon + below it : Eggplant marinated & pureed (Good)
3-Yetimatim : Tomato salad with green chillies & Ginger (Average)
4-Veggies caramelized with Ethiopian spices (Good)

Then the main dish :
1-Bedergan : Zucchini in our special alicha sauce (Average)
2-Zilzil Tibbs : Filet mignon strips sauteed with ginger (Great)
3-Yatakelt watt : cabbage, potatoes & carrots sautéed (Average)
4-Yebeg Key Watt: Moist Lamb cooked in berbere sauce (Ok)
5-Gommen : Spinach with onion & garlic (Bad)
6-Doro Watt : Chicken with berbéré sauce (Ok)

For the price of 60$ for 2 persons on what was presented it is too pricey & the food overall was average. The appetizers & main dish both were served with Injera Bread (traditional Ethiopian bread).The service was also average (the waiter was in a hurry to explain the dishes presented) .There were neither plates nor cutlery given (only 2 spoons on the appetizers plate).

Overall – Interesting but average experience
