I wanted to try Ethiopian food as Book Publishing Company is publishing a cookbook in Feb. 2015 called, Teff Love: Adventures in Vegan Ethiopian Cooking by Kittee Berns: [hidden link] I tried Ethiopian food once before I went here. From that experience, I didn 't understand what the hype was all about and I thought it was kind of similar to Indian food. Gojo blew my mind though! We got the Yemisser Sambussa (lentil samosas )and they were delicious! This was followed by the vegetarian platter. It was great to be able to try all the different dishes, all of which were full of tasty and full of flavour. I highly recommend trying Gojo! And I cannot wait to try out some of the recipes from Teff L...
I am new to Ethiopian cuisine, but I have to say that Gojo's food is amazing. I highly recommend trying the #32 vegetarian combo as it allows you to sample 4 dishes at once. The portion size is generous enough to be split into two meals for my husband who weighs over 200lbs. The food is filling but not heavy, making it a solid value. I have not tried the meat dishes yet, but the vegetable menu is superb. I can personally vouch for the Miser (red lentil), Kik (yellow split pea), Shiro (chickpea), Tikle (cabbage), Turner/Collar (greens), and Ye'atkilt (green/sting bean).
The food was great, but the customer service was just okay. There is only one person who visits all tables that can get messy when it gets busy. Even with only a few guests it took forever to get a glass of water for us Also, she did not let us sit at a table next to the window saying that it was reserved, but clearly no one came until we left The food was solid. We have the vegetable and meat combination together with the traditional Ethiopian coffee. Really nice. If only the service can be improved, I will visit this place again.
We absolutely loved coming here and it was one of the highlights of our trip! From the menu, we got the two veggie/two meat combo: 22 and 24 for the vegetables and 17 and 14 and 9 for the meats. And number 3 for the appetizer! Also got the traditional coffee!!! Our kids loved it too! Very memorable time and we loved the experience! Great service, great food, great time!

The first time to eat Ethiopian food and it was delicious! This place is so sweet, and the service is great. The coffee is absolutely fantastic! They roast the coffee beans and bring them out to small before they make your coffee, simply amazing.
I highly recommend this place if they are not in a hurry. it's small with 1 server, but it's definitiw that's worth waiting. we had a combi plate and everything was great! updated by previous review on 2021-10-25
Yummy! Just a heads up, it's a bit on the salty side. The spiciness is very suitable for American taste buds, although not as fiery as I had anticipated for Ethiopian cuisine.
Some of the best Ethiopian food I've tried in Nashville! got the 33. Meat and Veg Combo and it was amazing! The chicken, lamb, shiro, and collard greens are an absolute must

I always order the Vegetarian Combo at this restaurant, and it is delicious! It's a light and satisfying dish that doesn't leave me feeling too full.
35. Deqa Minchet Abish includes beef. The advertised pictures did not mention meat
