Incredible Value and Flavorful Food
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, offering the best value for your money. The $23 Zobel combo is incredibly generous and will feed 3 people a full meal. Be prepared to eat with your hands, which adds to the unique experience.
The food received a rating of 4, and the atmosphere was also rated a 4. Service was excellent, scoring a 5. Parking is available on a side street one block away, though finding a spot can be somewhat difficult.
The restaurant is wheelchair accessible and suitable for all group sizes. Vegetarian dishes are clearly labeled, and it's somewhat recommended for vegetarians. There was no wait time.

Solid Ethiopian, Open Late
I'm not sure why this place has lower ratings. My experience was VERY solid. Their combo plate was better than many other Ethiopian spots I've tried.
Plus, the kitchen stays open past midnight, which is a huge plus.

No Grubhub Service Available
My experience was frustrating because there was no service for Grubhub. This was despite the owner having his business on Grubhub and me having an order ready for pickup.

Consistently Great Ethiopian Food
I come here often. The food is consistently good. Their Lamb yebeg tibs is something I could eat for days in a row without getting tired of it.
Firfir and the meat combo are also my go-to choices. The service and atmosphere were both rated a 5 out of 5.

Huge Portions, Flavorful Food!
My experience at the restaurant was absolutely delish! The portions were huge, and the injera was perfectly fluffy and tangy. I particularly enjoyed the Lamb Tibs, which were spicy and very flavourful.
The Veggie Combo was also solid. I will definitely be back.

Top 3 Ethiopian Food Experience
My experience at this restaurant was exceptional. We ordered the excellent mixed veggie and meat platter for two, which was a highlight. Having tried Ethiopian food globally, I can confidently say this place ranks in the top 3.
The service was very nice, and the prices were reasonably priced. I have no doubt we will be back next time we visit Seattle.

Rip off for tiny portion
My experience at the restaurant was disappointing. I ordered the 21 yebeg tibis, which was an extra small portion and mostly onion for $20. It felt like a rip off 😪.
The restaurant also had only an OKAY rating from King County restaurant rating.
