bland, mushy, did I mention bland? 1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

I guess I didn't know what Ethiopian food was, and maybe still don't...anyway, this was terrible. It lacked any kind of flavor, except maybe vinegar, and every dish looked and tasted like canned vegetables in different colored bland sauces. I love trying different ethnic cuisines, but it will be a long time before I try Ethiopian food again if I have to judge from this experience. Ugh. Double ugh. Canned veggies--triple ugh.

Great food, great people 5 Star Rating - World class

I went here for my birthday party and had a blast. The food was great and they really made a big deal over my celebration. This really felt like a quality, family run sort of place. I'm definitely going back soon and would recommend it to anyone.

A cultural Gem in Seattle 5 Star Rating - World class

This place is really an experience to have. I love going here and basically learning about their culture through their food and ceremonies. I am a MORE than avid coffee drinker and love to follow meals up with it. There coffee ceremony makes it even more special than throwing back a starbucks latte.

I don't really know what to compare the food to so you will just have to go give it a try. Go for it!
