"Well I ordered my food,I had ordered from there year's ago.(Silver Spring, Md)approximately 6years. I took 1 bite of my entree,and fell in love all,over again!!The steak was,fork tender, the piece of chicken was moist and juicy(white meat),the chorizo was just enough spice yet enjoyable. I ordered a side of Rice & Beans and a side order of Fried Plantains to accompany my Grill Combination Platter . My husband and I fell into a food coma 😆 🤣 😂 lol.I will say this ,they've got a customer for LIFE!!! If they're open, We're there. I told friends and family about y'all.

"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"

"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. "

"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!

"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."

"This is the place for delicious Ethiopian food. I've ordered from many other such restaurants in this area and have often been disappointed. But Abyssinia always comes through. The portions are hearty and worth the money, especially if - like me - you enjoy having a nice lunch from leftovers the next day. You can't go wrong with the 16. Doro Wot and 9. Abyssinia Vegetarian Combination . 5 stars."
"I was looking forward to trying Abyssinia, and I love lamb, but while the Tibs sauce was good, the lamb itself was overcooked and it didn't taste fresh at all. 😑"

It can also be prepared lightly cooked, or "leb leb," upon request. Tibs: A versatile dish of tender meat, typically beef or lamb, sautéed with onions, peppers, and savory spices. The meat is seared to a delicious crisp on the outside while remaining tender within. Key Wet: A rich, spicy red stew of braised beef, seasoned with our signature Berbere spice blend. The tender beef soaks up the deep, complex flavors of the sauce, creating a satisfying and unforgettable comfort food.

"I ordered the Spicy Ethiopian Tibs from Greens N Tibs and it was so good! The flavors were amazing, with the perfect amount of spice, and everything tasted super fresh. You can tell it’s made with quality ingredients and a lot of care. I also love that they use olive oil in their cooking—it gives the dish a clean, fresh taste without feeling heavy.
The portion was filling, and I appreciated that it was both healthy and packed with authentic Ethiopian flavor. I’ll definitely be ordering this again. Highly recommend if you’re looking to try something delicious and different!"

"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."
