    I have tasted Ethiopian food many times and have loved it in the past. The food was terrible here, The beef which was supposed to have been spicy was instead just boiled with no spice at all. The collard greens were so loaded up with some type of shortening and seemed to have only been spiced with cloves. The injera was cold and stale. The service was so horrible. It took so long to bring the food and they did not even once check the water glasses for refill. The walls were paper thin and you could constantly hear the toilet flushing. The only thing that was good there was the organic Ethiopian honey wine, which I am pretty sure was not made there.

    I loved the place. It was great. Friendly staff and very good food. The vegetarian sampler was excellent and the Foules(?) was amazing.

    I've been here many times and each time it's been a great experience. There is sometimes a fairly long wait, but at the end of it, it's worth the wait. Very friendly staff and excellent food. I'd come here anytime.
