I don't know if this still has the restaurant attached, but I have been to the restaurant twice (December 2012 and spring of 2013) and both times the food has been superb. My classmate who is Ethiopian recommended it as her favorite restaurant so the first time we went it was for my birthday. It was my husband's first time trying Ethiopian cuisine and we both loved it. The honey wine was also delicious. The second time I went was with several classmates and it was again the best food. Some of them had not had Ethiopian food before and everyone liked it. I would highly recommend this place above some of the more popular well-frequented locations. This is more of an authentic experience. And F...
This place is so delicious! Whenever I am in the District, this is my go-to for Ethiopian. Got take out just a few days ago (combo sampler) and shared with my family and we were all full and happy. I wish I had taken pictures but we devoured every thing so fast there was no time! If you want good, authentic Ethiopian food that won 't break the bank, this is your place. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Vegetarian offerings: Large vegetarian selection Vegetarian options: Get the combo if you want to try a little of everything. You can also ask them to adjust the heat where appropriate.
The food was delicious and truly authentic, and the prices were reasonable. Although I haven't tried their lunch buffet, I can only imagine it must be just as good and affordably priced. As for parking on a Saturday night, it's conveniently available on the north side of Eastern Avenue, near the intersection with Georgia Avenue.
If you're feeling adventurous, enjoy authentic Ethiopian cuisine, and don't mind being one of the few non-Ethiopian patrons, I highly recommend dining here on a Saturday night.
Compared to other Ethiopian restaurants, the portion sizes here were a bit smaller. Typically, a vegetarian sampler/platter is enough for both me and my husband, but we found that we needed to order two this time. However, when we ordered a second platter, it came in a larger size. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was pleasantly relaxed and laid-back.

Delicious food. Friendly people, both staff and locals.. Good prices. I was very welcomed, though a different ethnicity. Nice collection of Ethiopian artifacts. I can see why Ethiopian food is the rage! Seemed very authentic food:. I had a lamb dish with a side. Live far away but want to return! Wow! (Visited two Saturdays ago.
I tried this restaurant out because I was in the area and needed to get breakfast. This service was amazing and I had a chat with the owners son who was very helpful in choosing my breakfast option. This was also my first time at an Ethiopian restaurant. Loved it and would go back again soon. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
The service was excellent, and I enjoyed the beautiful pictures of Ethiopia and proud Ethiopians, such as the King of Ethiopia and H. Gebrselassie, adorning the walls. It was a wonderful experience for a Sunday evening tête-à-tête. We had the restaurant to ourselves around 5 PM and truly had a delightful time.
Amazing food with a sweet host. Never had Ethiopian food before but i do feel this was super authentic. Pretty chill vibe as well Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Reminded me of the food I grew up with. Very delicious and filling. The staff was great and to top it off I was able to buy some ingredients to make my own from their market next door.
atmosphere was hospitable as the food was scrumptious!
