Went last night as a group of four adults and one picky toddler. I had tried Ethiopian (only as takeout) a few months ago and due to being preggers could only enjoy it briefly before the smell overwhelmed me. My friend had tried it years ago and did not like it and both our husbands had never tried Ethiopian cuisine. I'll cut to the chase...we all really enjoyed our meals! Even my toddler mastered the art of using the injera bread to scoop up yummy food.\n\nUnsure of whether we would like the food or not hubby and I opted to share an individal platter, figuring our kid would only pick at the food at best. We went with the Meat Combo, #16 I think, and it had doro wat, and two other wats (spicy and mild beef stews). I added gomen, which are the greens, because I do remember those being very tasty from my previous try. I LOVED the Doro Wat and Gomen! \n\nIt was a lot of food for us--even with my daugter eating a good amount of it--and we ended up taking home leftovers. Our friends both ordered separate individual platters and had waaaaay too much food left over. We finished off our meal with the chocolate mousse cake which was delicious. Our meal (platter and dessert) was just under $30. \n\nThe place is nothing to look at--no frills at all, but that was not what we expected anyway. The only thing I would have enjoyed more was if our injera bread had been served warm. Otherwise, we all had a really good time and enjoyed our meals. Definitely will return.
