Ethiopian food is one of my favorites and I have eaten it in restaurants across the country and Walia is one of the best! The vegetarian sampler is amazing and they have some of their own unique takes on it. I went with someone who doesn't eat gluten and they were able to make her injera (Ethiopian bread) that was gluten free. The food was so yummy, I had to pause and not speak to just enjoy the amazing flavors. The service was also excellent and very attentive. In fact, the chef came out to talk to us! I highly recommend it and plan to go back on my next visit to New Jersey.

Food is always great. The pizza and the Tony salad is what I get. My daughter usually gets a pasta dish which is always good and fresh. My wife says the gluten free pizza is the best she has ever had. This is one of our go to spots. It never disappoints.

Wonderful breakfast, brunch, AND lunch place! Menu is huge with so many options, including gluten free waffles for about $2 more! They have specialty coffees like lattes and chais, but the food itself was great! All waffle dishes come with a side of either potatoes, grits, mixed greens, or fruit! Grits option gives you an ENTIRE bowl of grits and the potatoes were amazing! Definitely coming back here with family members and friends who enjoy some gourmet waffles and pancakes!
