Authentic Ethiopian flavors with warm hospitality and occasional service rough edges; great food-first choice if you can tolerate inconsistency.
Our take
Preliminary Grade: This restaurant has only 71 reviews, which is below our 100-review minimum for reliable grading. This grade should be considered preliminary until more reviews are available.
