“Do yourself a favor and get both the vegetarian and meat combo! I loved: Mitten shito Yemisser wot Doro wot I liked: After kik Atakilt wot Gomen wot Kei wot Raw Kitfo special (beef) Ethiopian Coffee This was ok: Alitcha wot (dry) Ethiopian Spiced Tea Eating these #goodeats with my bare hands was an awesome cultural experience There are lots of unique flavors and textures and having a large group made things easy to share. Highly recommend dining in as they'll serve you raw kitfo properly. Ethnic rules apply for service and ambiance. It's dark as hell in the restaurant so speak up if you need something or else they'll ignore you.“

“This is my absolute favorite restaurant in the South Bay, and even my son's favorite restaurant (and he's 7 1/2 years old! ). We love this place. If you're adventurous try the Kitfo medium or medium rare (or rare, for those of us who are very adventurous). The Veggie sampler is also fantastic.“

“Haven't had Ethiopian food in a while, and since my friend and I were missing the old Reheboth Cafe, we were in the search! Luckily, we found this place! It was night time, and right outside, were a bunch of guys just staring at us intensely. I mean, "two Asian guys and a white guy walk into an Ethiopian Cafe" is usually the start of some racist joke, but let me tell you: This place is no joke! The food is great! We ordered the mild spicy level foods because my company couldn't really handle spicy, and even the "weak guy" of us kept eating the spicy stuff, and crying with joy (also from the spices).After we came in though, the sign was immediately flipped to "Close". Don't think they were expecting to serve food on New Years Evening, but there were others just hanging out and having a good time. Only complaint I had, was the tea. Although they used Lipton tea bags, they managed to put the right spices in there to give it a slight hint of that flavor I'm used to when it comes to Ethiopian tea. Not the best, but it wasn't bad considering what they were dealing with. I'd come back again if I was in the area!“
