    Having grown up in the Bay Area I have eaten a lot of Ethiopian food and love it! I thought the food here to be very alright though and the portions incredibly small for the price. Would have loved more combination platters. The food overall wasn't very good and I was pretty disappointed.

    The price online is $23 for vegetarian combination. When you go there they charge you $63. They need to change the menu to reflect there current price. In any case $63 is outrageously expensive. Try other Ethiopian restaurants. They are much cheaper and the food are as good or even better.

    We got the lamb curry & the vegetarian combo - the lamb curry was great & the lentils were my favourite dish. We had honey wine too & a proper, strong espresso. The service was friendly & everything came super quickly which was perfect as we were in a rush.

    We went for a late lunch so the restaurant was empty. The staff were lovely, taking time to explain some things about their culture. The food was amazing.
