Ambiance was nice and the food tasted okay. I had really high hopes that I would love the Ethiopian restaurant near my house but unfortunately I was mistaken. We ordered one okra appetizer and a lamb dish. The waiter brought us two appetizers and a chicken dish. We did not complain because we both hate to waste food but the flavors were very muted. Nothing like the Ethiopian restaurants I have visited in the past. The beers we ordered they no longer had in house so they just brought us a substitute without even checking. I definitely will not be returning. Such a bummer and now I am out $85.

2/8/22: a cozy Ethiopian (Abyssinian) bistro on Park Ave in University Heights. This was our first time eating this type of food and the waiter was outstanding in breaking down the menu. For starters we had the pan seared mushrooms. It comes with a flat, floppy bread that you tear up and used to scoop up the food with your fingers. For the entrée we had Shiro and Prawn. It is chickpea-based with zesty herbs white wine peppers Serano and other things mixed in to the sauce. Pretty much this was excellent. Again you use the flat bread to scoop up the food. Definitely recommend for an outside the box dining experience. By the way, one entrée with two or three sides is enough for two people

I went here for my birthday with a dashing Frenchman. I Can't believe that, for 33 years, I have somehow not tasted this exquisite cuisine. You can get adequate food in lots of places but the incredible tastes from this place will make you question the idea of ever going to another restaurant again. *Ask about the fermented bread that you will receive on your plate! It's the world's smallest grain and the taste is incredible. They will show you the grain. *Try the mushroom appetizer! These were some of the most delicious and well prepared mushrooms I have ever tasted. I make mushrooms at home, quite well if I may boast, but I could not do this at home without some specific coaching. *The vegetable dishes were out of this world. I like meat and all, but you can only do so much with it. These vegetables were absolutely to die for. Don't go get a pizza, forget about the Chinese buffet, definitely steer clear of the sports bar. Come here and get a cornucopia of wonderful flavors That absolutely fills the senses with something that speaks to the origins of delicious southern food with a huge nod to the curry world. Seriously, if you are on the fence don't think twice. Just go! #LauriannaCircle #BriannaB3d #Solana

LOVED THE FOOD! Oh my god, so delicious! Ordered three vegetarian dishes - Mama’s fool, Kantisha Kilwa and Shiro with sides - Timtimo and Alitcha Atakilto. All the dishes came in one large plate and the entire experience was so unique. The waiting is a bit long but totally worth it! Should definitely give it a try.

We have a party of 6 people. I made a reservation for inside. Is it possible to get a table for 6 people outside instead? We have a dog.

They can definitely sit 6 outside (I've had birthday dinners up to 12 out there) but I'm not sure if you can bring dogs there. I would recommend calling them to check on both.
