"I ordered the iced brown sugar, oat milk, shaken espresso, and had a couple of modifications for it. Someone from the cafe specifically called me to verify the modifications in my coffee to make sure I got what I wanted. I also ordered the lemon ricotta muffin, but they were out. The woman on the phone kindly suggested an alternative for me. The coffee is delicious. The muffin she suggested is also delicious. It's very rare to receive such amazing customer service from someone via DoorDash. I'm sure they're even more lovely in person. Definitely have to go back in person and try their other food & drinks!"
"Not good for groups. We ordered ahead specifically to give them time to prepare and they made our 6 person order when we arrived to pick it up. Portions were tiny and they were out of stock on things we had ordered. Coffee was good. Definitely more of a single or two person coffee shop kind of place."

"The "standard" BBQ items and sides are as good as anywhere else in DC, but the Turkey, Hushpuppies, and smashburgers set this place apart. The carolina sauce is semi-aurhentic but 100% awesome with the Turkey."
"I have never had such dry bbq anything in my life.
The Brisket had literally no moisture in it at all.
The Ribs were tiny and had so much marbling that they weren't edible without having to spit out what couldn't be chewed with every single bite.
The SLOPPY JOE BBQ BRISKET is odd tasting, and crunchy.
The POTATO SALAD; BAKED BEANS and cornbread were all not fresh made at all. They have the consistency of thickener being added.
The CORNBREAD is dry, with oddly hard kernels of corn, but given the rest of the items, this is no surprise.
Incredibly disappointed. Will be sticking with Tex jacks. It's more expensive, but it's always fresh.
You won't get sauce you don't pay for, napkins; wipes, or plasticware, which is also weird given its BBQ"

This is what I look forward to when I want fruit! Beautifully plated, container FULL of it, fresh and juicy, tons of melons, big strawberries and fresh grapes! Well worth the money! And if you order the side of melon you get 3 or 4 huge slices or fresh juicy melon! It was all wonderful and this will be my go to for fruit! Everything else we had was also great too. "

It's a little out the way for me but worth it. "

"Absolutely delicious and deserves every bit of praise, the flavor is unmatched and rivals any Awaze Tibs I've had before."
"Ethiopian Combina Platter was extremely oily, I spent 20 mins trying to dab the red colored oil out of the soggy injera. And they included only one additional injera, this was the first time I've seen one injera included in a platter. Food tasted good but made me feel super groggy after. Not terrible but won't do this again."

"What a treat. I wasn't sure how well Ethiopian food was going to pack and travel but it arrived in perfect shape. The collection of vegetarian dishes was superb. Spicy but not overwhelmingly so. The Tekil Gomen and Shiro Wat are two of my favorites but their version of Kayser -- the rich, mineral-laden beet dish, was incredible. Just delicious. It was served on injera, as it would be in a restaurant, with several more rounds of the flat bread folded over the top to soak up any sauce that spilled over in transit. Ed I definitely did not need the extra side of injera I ordered. This meal would have fed 2-3 hungry people. There is a smaller sampler for one but I wanted to taste everything. So glad I did. Will definitely order again!! "
"Family Special was delicious, especially the beet dish. Definitely a hearty two meals' worth of food. The Sambusa was tasty as well. The pastry was doughier rather than crispy which was different than most others in the area."

"Veggie dishes are so flavorful. I could eat them as my only dish three meals a day, and I'm not even a vegetarian. I also appreciate the teff injera; the barley version cannot match the real thing!"
"The #24. Kitfo Dulet was okay, had a lot of chunky onions and no jalapeños at all. I'd give it a 5. The #61. Veggie Combo (4) was delicious and the best test from any other restaurant I ordered from. The only thing I didn't like was the Shiro. I'd definitely order it again. I really like the packaging because not everything was mixed up by the time i received it. The veggie #61. Veggie Combo (4) is amazing and I'd give it a 9."

"Best food ever. The portion is perfect and fresh.I always order from there, and thank you for the best customer service."
"Veggie Combo was abundant in variety but the flavor wasnt the same as other places. Really odd horseradish side that is not traditional. Misir Wot was especially underwhelming, which was too bad because it is my favorite. Maybe the ingredients were less fresh. Spaghetti wasn't good at all and had a sour flavor. Quanta Firfir was the best dish. Would have appreciated more injira."

"Best assortment for an Ethiopian vegetables combo platter I have come across to date -- 10 different items! I thought it was a great value!"
"They should consider removing Goden Tibs from the menu. Got a HUGE bone with barely any meat on it, only disgusting fat, unseasoned, burnt and just a mess! And I've had better Fasolia for the price and size. I've had their Derek Tibs before and although never consistent (sometimes it has tomatoes sometimes not), that one was good. Hence the 4 stars, their saving grace. And I love that they have American Injera by the bag."
