We visited for lunch with a party of 6. We got the TA2 combination dish, the Vegetarian plate, the goat plate and Ethiopian coffee. Service was terrific and the young lady was extremely friendly and helpful. All of the food was excellent, coffee presentation was fun and coffee terrific. Strongly recommend visiting.Vegetarian options: google wants details on the vegetarian options - there is a vegetarian sample plate and numerous vegetarian options

If you are a lamb lover this is your place. I had Awaze tibs cooked to perfection, aromatic, jucy, rich dish served with equally delicious injera.Nice, quiet, friendly place. I'll be back.Wheelchair accessibility: It's street level.

The wife and I have visited several times. We made our first visit one night looking for something we never had before, and found it. The quality of the cuisine is always good. The consistency in the flavor of the dishes from one visit, to the next, is always spot on. The staff has always been very personable, and provide good hospitality. If you like good, strong coffee. You'll find it hard to not enjoy a cup with dinner. They food here is great. Give it a tryKid-friendliness: ff they was to add to their menu some more kid friendly options would be good

Usually go to Major as it's more convenient when I come down from Lafayette. Tried Abyssinia a few months back when Major wasn't open,Both are very good!! Great food, service, atmosphere at a reasonable cost. Will definitely be going back to both.

Delicious food. Especially awesome for vegetarians. The flavors and spices were a welcomed change to American food.

Craveable Lamb soup. Delicious 2 person platter, suitable for both veg and meat eaters. When we moved out of state, we tried to find another Ethiopian place that could satisfy our cravings, but so far no one has come close. We made sure we fit this place into our itinerary when we came back to visit family.Vegetarian options: My meat loving husband says the vegetables are so good he almost didn't touch the meat.Dietary restrictions: I have a beef allergy and even with beef given on the platter I could still enjoy all the other meat and veg options provided.

Amazing food. Amazing customer service. It was a 30-minute drive for us, but it was definitely worth it. I highly recommend it. We hope to return soon.

We love this place. The food is excellent and reasonably priced. My daughter refuses to eat in anywhere since covid, so we always get take out. That makes me sad but I still enjoy the food, even if I'm missing out on the whole experience. Turkish coffee after ethiopian food is one of my favorites ever.

Abyssinia is one of the small handful of restaurants we find worth driving an hour up to Indy for. The food is always delicious and the portions are generous. Our go-to is the spicy combo for two (with meat). The injera is superb and we love the variety of vegetable, meat, and lentil dishes. The ambience is also very pleasant. Bottom line: Abyssinia is our favorite Ethiopian restaurant in Indianapolis (and one of our favorite restaurants in Indy overall) — you will not regret coming here!Vegetarian options: Ethiopian cuisine is one of the most delicious options for vegetarians (and vegans).
