"Excellent as always! Prompt, accurate service with instructions followed, boxes labelled as to which contain mild food, absolutely delicious, great selection, cooked to perfection, every morsel completely tasty! Perfect!
Oh, what did I eat, you wonder? The Dinich Wot (Potato Stew) I had never seen or heard of before so naturally, it was a must! Nicely spiced, saucy stew! That was had with a side of Ater Kik/ mild yellow split peas and the 'regular' injera served in America .... My dining partner and I shared most everything including my Fosolia with a side of Kay Misir -- spicy red lentils -- and the authentic Ethiopian injera (the original teff rather than teff mixed with wheat -- thinner, more sour-tasting, with a totally different long-term bodily effect!) -- and a delicious, crispy lentil sambusa for to end! Again, it was just perfection! Mmm ... ! :-D"

"The overall taste was good and the food was fresh. The Mango Juice is too small compared to what's advertised. Also, the Kuanta Firfir didn't have an egg which was quite disappointing. I wouldn't order again but I'm open to try another food next time when I'm craving Ethiopian food."

"Quick order completion and delivery. Not many local Ethiopian spots offer meat & veggie combination platter (for delivery) and this is perfect when you're craving a bit of everything. The price & portion size of the Combination Platter 1 match with consideration of current food prices. Nothing was too spicy (could have been more but I get that would take it out of a general standard) or bland. Warmth @ arrival was decent for food variety. Would order again!"
"I love their dullet so much!!! The spices the portion and the kibe it just so PERFECT! but the other day I ordered Doro Wot wet and it didn't taste good. I wouldn't order it again. It was too spicy and didn't have a true doro wet taste. Almost no chicken on it. I will just continue ordering Dulet from this store. "

"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.

"I don't often write reviews but this was disappointing. Quantity and quality seemed off. We spent almost $100 and tibs were salty, dry and veggies combo also felt like it was lacking the typical dynamic flavor that makes ethiopian food so good and we were so excited for it! Quantities were much smaller compared to other restaurants we visit. Our in-person visit was better than takeout but both were long waits. We are huge ethiopian fans and this was disappointing."

"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."

"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!! "

"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."

"Quick Service and turn which I do appreciate.However egg is runny and wet, cheese is weird texture and one slice of bacon on a bacon egg and cheese is really trying it.Quick service but quality of the sandwich didn't meet my expectations of what I thought I would receive so that's my fault."

"Even though their food is pricy, it's really worth it. Compared to other african restaurants, their food is a lot. I really like their rice and atadindin, the egusi is very tasty as well. The puff puff, meatpie...., the list is endless. Their food really gives Nigerian vibes. I keep coming back every time. I pray I don't spend my life savings on their food 😩"

"Arepa Asado Negro had two chunky beef slices. Meat was appropriately sweet and well marinated. Though it was a bit dry.
Capresa Arepa Vegetariana was actually my favorite. The veggies were fresh (avocado was green not brown) and basil pesto paired well with the Queso de Mano cheese.
Both arepas were well toasted and the Queso de Mano cheese fresh and soft. Overall highly recommended."

"The Eru was absolutely good and the most the way the Gari foufou is made wad excellent not hard like stone as you would find in certain place in West Africa. Bravo to that magic cook who did this successfully
.
I would have liked the Eru with fish and shrimp.
I liked the chicken but to have the Eru with mixed chicken, smoked fish and shrimp with crab added will give the Eru a very good perfume as we have in Togo and Benin .
I have really enjoyed my food one order served two meals. Good value for money and it's healthy.
Can you have the Eru done with peanut oil instead ok palm.
Thank you for this comfort food so well anticipated today.
Best regards"
"I ordered the same thing two days in a row. I don't like that their meals are inconsistent. The only thing consistent was the rice. The second time I ordered I didn't get any plantains, the chicken in the Signature Chicken Meal was smaller and hard. The Sausage Rolls was hard as a rock. I couldn't even dig my nails into it"
