  • The food was decent - not the best Ethiopian I have. It would have been a nice experience nonetheless. However, our server made an error on the check, and then the owner refused to fix it. This made for an overall sour experience, and I will not be going back.

  • I like this better than Addis Red Sea. The staff is really nice and helpful. However, be careful about the spice, particularly the salad they put in some super hot peppers that'll catch you by surprise.

  • A great spot in Central Square for authentic Ethiopian cuisine. Order from a selection of meat and vegetable dishes, served spread out on a large, round spongy bread. Spicy works well here. A hint: grab the food with separate pieces of injera, not the soggy stuff underneath it.

  • Good ethiopian/eritrean food. They like to push their combination platter which is excellent, but a bit pricey.
