So pleasant from start to finish. We walked in after lunch and before dinner, and were welcomed graciously. The atmosphere is cozy and the decor transports you away. So many beautiful Ethiopian touches- cool carved wood backed chairs and huge straw woven baskets— so nice! We ordered samosas, the vegetarian sampler for four and gluten free injera, the layered fruit drink (yum!), carrot cake, and coffee. All delicious. The gentleman who helped us was the owner and so attentive, his son also served the food. I love to support family business! The coffee is roasted on site and the subtle cardamom and other spices made it an experience. I’ve been wanting that coffee ever since! Sorry this pic of the sampler is AFTER we destroyed it, but gives you an idea of the size anyway. 😊

Came here for the first time for Mother's Day. We called ahead to make sure they had gluten free injera. The food is delicious. So much flavor! It's cooked to order so don't expect to get your food in 15 minutes, but I promise it's worth the wait! The decor is beautiful and the service is great. They are allergy conscious. Best part was finding out the carrot cake was both gluten free and vegan!
