    It did not live up to the hype, while the food is good, it’s not exceptional and the portions are small. I would skip and perhaps try some of the other well known family style Ethiopian restaurants

    The was was average. I had the lamb tibs and the meat was hard. They used the same condiment for all the dishes we ordered. My dish was way too oily. Out table was on the second floor and there was a bad smell in the room. The hole experience was a disappointment…

    Got there 15 min late due to a Google Maps fail. They took us in right away and graciously. We got two veggie sampler platters. Food was amazing. We both commented after we finished that we could do it all over again. And my friend barely eats in the first place.

    We last ate here in 2014 on our first ever trip to DC. We were a bit concerned that it would no longer be here after Covid or had changed in character, but we were pleasantly surprised to find that it hadn’t changed a bit. Great food and very friendly and helpful staff. If you’ve not eaten Ethiopian cuisine before then just take their recommendations. There was no oversell and the food was amazing.
