Awash

Never had Ethiopian food before and this place was great!! Had the BK special and we definitely be will be returning! The staff were super friendly and gave us recs and gluten free injera too! The plants and decor was very pretty as well. Will be recommending this place to everyone I know! Definitely worth it!!!

AVOID this place - I called in advance of ordering to explain that I’m gluten free and so would need gluten free injera (most authentic and good quality injera is gluten free naturally but apparently not here), the restaurant said I just had to add the request in the notes. When I placed the order, they then called to say they couldn’t give me gluten free injera because I hadn’t paid extra for it (despite their being no option on the menu to pay extra for it). They told me I had to place a separate order for $4.50 in order to get ONE gluten free injera (for reference, all of their dishes come with 2 injera). When I informed them that would be below the minimum order and would cost me money in delivery etc they just told me there was nothing they could do (which seems ridiculous as all restaurants can add on extras on their end). They then told me they would cancel a main ($20) so I could get some gluten free injera - so ridiculous! It’s a pancake and they were trying to charge me $20 to get it when it’s FREE with their dishes. Zero accommodation for dietary needs, rude staff who don’t communicate well at all. I had to cancel the order myself because they apparently couldn’t do it. Just avoid if you don’t want a headache.

My FAVORITE Ethiopian restaurant in the city. I come here all the time with my husband who is Ethiopian (he's very picky and loves it here too) and we always bring our friends. Amazing and fresh food. Also GLUTEN-FREE options!
