  We ordered a wide selection of the vegetarian dishes to get a full sense of the menu. While the variety was appreciated, none of the dishes particularly stood out. The yellow split peas were undercooked, which affected both texture and overall enjoyment. The injera was adequate, though not especially memorable. Overall, the meal felt average as Ethiopian food goes. As a huge fan of Ethiopian foid, I was hoping for at least one dish that would stand out.

  With absolutely zero people in the establishment, the hostess tried to have us sit in the dark corner by the door and then gave major attitude when we requested to sit elsewhere and told us the table was “reserved” Opted to drive across town and eat elsewhere instead. Also, there were quite a few flies flying around as well.

  This restaurant tucked away on the 2nd floor feels like a hidden gem. They have limited hours and reservations are recommended. Every table was full the night we went. They have few staff so patience is essential. Food was yummy and authentic. We had a lovely time trying something new.

  One of the best restaurants in Portland. Amazing food. Even better people. Everything is top notch. We eat here all the time and we can never get enough.

  Dear Peter, So good to see you thriving after all these years! Thanks for heckling us for our extended absence. Clearly we forgot how much we enjoy eating at Beta Lukas! It's still delicious! Cheers, Kim and Brian
