Asmara Restaurant

The huge portions, incredibly flavorful food, and the experience of both eating with your hands and trying something (most likely) new should be enough cause to check this place out! Keep your expectations of atmosphere low; this place is all about the food and the folks cooking it for you.

Incredible comfort food. I ordered the shiro and my partner got a lamb dish, for takeout - both were astounding, but I have to say the shiro was a big winner. The cinnamon sweet tea was lovely too. Just the right amount of warmth.

Unique and delicious food. A great addition to Portland's variety. I will definitely be back. The staff was extremely helpful and nice. Coffee really good and is served traditionally.

Interesting option in the Portland area, but overpriced for what you get. Maybe there would be an extra star if I was dining with more people and could try more options (it felt like a sharing-esque menu), but the modest bread and meat choice for close to $20 was priced higher than it should have been.
