It had been a long day of traveling and I was hungry after only having a small serving of oats for breakfast. Luckily, my friend suggested trying Ethiopian food at Makeda. The atmosphere was lovely with pleasant music playing, and on Thursday nights they even have live jazz. We ordered a veggie platter along with a lamb and beef dish, accompanied by two delicious beers. The meal was amazing, with flavors that blended perfectly and left us all completely satisfied. The veggie platter had us reconsidering vegetarianism, while the lamb dish reminded us why we could never give up meat. The experience of tearing pieces of bread to pick up the food made for a communal meal that we savored. The ser...
Had a great experience here!Highly recommended.The atmosphere here is very welcoming with an open floor plan, nice artwork and what seems to be a stage for live performances (would definitely come back for that). From the door host to the servers down to the cook, everyone was attentive, helpful and nice.Most importantly, the food was DELICIOUS! The portions are worth the price point. I started with lentil sambusas. Followed by, makeda tibs with jasmine rice. Along with the veggie combo, however I had double portions of the red lentils, cabbage and string beans, instead of the single six options listed.One unique element about this visit is I was asked if I want injera from here (the US) or...
I would love this restaurant more of it wasn't located in such an awful plaza.The food is authentic, and all the serving staff are extremely kind and genuine. If you do go, please tip in cash as I've heard of the owners deducting more tips than needed from their service staff. They have live music towards the end of the week and their bar is good! Drinks are decently priced. I only wish some of the dishes were cheaper because I would eat there more often. I definitely recommend eating here if you're interested in exploring new cuisines.Vegetarian options: Very vegan and veggie friendly cuisine!
The food was very good and so was the honey wine but they cater more to their own people (Ethiopian) If you’re not Ethiopian your service may not be as great! I tried to get the waitress/bartender attention a few times and no response, she ignored me. I had to get someone’s attention before I could get my order taken. When others came to sit down at the bar that was Ethiopian, they received quicker service.

I really appreciated the cleanliness of the restaurant and the helpfulness of my server. I ordered the Geba Weta and found the meat to be very tender, with just the right amount of spice for those looking for a milder dish. The only downside is that this place is pricier compared to other Ethiopian restaurants nearby, but overall, the experience was quite enjoyable.
Service was very slow. We were never greeted by anyone, had to request water despite having water glasses on our table and our waitress said there was a drink menu but then asked us what we wanted rather than bringing us the menu. Food was delicious and large portions. I’d likely come back but with modified expectations of the service.
The food at this restaurant is absolutely delicious. I highly recommend trying the tuna kitfo, as it has a wonderful flavor and is very tender. The kitfo is not too heavy and is easy on the stomach. My favorite way to enjoy it is with a side of mitmita. This review comes from a 9 year old.
