Classic Ethiopian dishes like kitfo, tibs & injera, plus veggie options, in a bright, modest eatery.

The first thing I noticed and FELT was the welcoming and family oriented energy! I was greeted with smiles and the atmosphere was so comfortable, I stayed longer than planned! The food was absolutely DELICIOUS! Every single bite got an “MMMM” out of me ! The menu had so many delicious options, it was hard to choose a dish! And since i’m a coffee lover, I wanted to try their traditional coffee. And it was up to my standards! Being an individual that is hesitant about trying new foods, having the courage to try Ethiopian food and being so glad that I did, makes me so proud of myself! This is worth more than 5 starts! I definitely will be back!

This is seriously some of the best food I’ve ever had. Like no exaggeration. If you’re looking for a peaceful night that will casually blow your mind, CHOOSE HERE. RUN. NOW. The food is so incredibly flavorful and fresh, the staff is so sweet, and vibes are peaceful and friendly. This place deserves all the love and all the business. I hope it thrives for many years and we’ll definitely be back. Enjoy this pic of our demolished tray of food!

The food was excellent and the staff were very friendly. The building is a little older, but they keep it clean and in good shape. It’s very bright and has a lot of nice cultural touches. It was a delightful meal. I got the Alichia wot (I’m not sure if I spelled it right), it was great. It’s a beef curry, and the spice balance worked very well together. If you’re new to this type of food, just a heads up the bread is the utensil that you use to eat the food. It works great to gain all the flavors too. I will be back. The price for the amount of food was great. My meal was $16, and I had enough for a snack at home later as well.

For someone who enjoys a diversity of international cuisine, this is one of my favorite restaurants in San Antonio. The food is delicious and portion sizes will never leave you hungry. The staff are so kind and make a night out to dinner such a joy.

Tried the meat and veggie combo and they both tasted spectacular! Each of the meat and veggie toppings were flavorful and unique paired with the injera which is light, fluffy, and airy. Staff were friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Also ordered the Ethiopian traditional coffee and the staff usually gives it to you after you have finished your meal. It made a lot of sense when I tried it because the coffee was like a palate cleanser while it had a nice strong scent and flavor to it. Definitely recommend trying this place out.

Tried for the first time, I had the meat combo was seasoned well and tasty. My husband had the veggie combo which was also good. Ambiance is nice, very clean and food was served fairly quick after ordering. Nice Ethiopian music played. The only reason I am giving it a 3 out of five is because this is the first ever I tried and do not have another yet to base on however for the first time trying it was good!

Absolutely fantastic food every time we go. There’s nothing quite like it. I always eat more than i planned. The owners are so warm and friendly, as well. Whenever we go, we always say we want to eat here more often.

If you’re looking for authentic Ethiopian cuisine made with love and care, this restaurant is an absolute gem! I had the shiro and doro wat, and I could instantly tell the food was freshly made with high-quality ingredients. The dishes were incredibly flavorful yet light, with very little oil, making them feel healthy and nourishing. The balance of spices was perfect, and every bite was a delight.
The service was warm and welcoming—it’s clear the staff and owner genuinely care about their customers. Speaking of the owner, they exude a passion for Ethiopian culture and cuisine. They took the time to share a bit about the cooking process and even asked for feedback, which shows their dedication to making every guest’s experience special.
A word of advice: come with some patience. Because everything is prepared from scratch, the wait time can be a bit longer than usual. But trust me, it’s well worth it for the quality and freshness of the food.
The restaurant itself has a cozy and charming vibe that makes you feel right at home. It’s the kind of place you’ll want to keep coming back to, not just for the incredible food but also for the warm and inviting atmosphere. Highly recommended!

My wife & I had never eaten this type of food & we ate here for the first time & it was wonderful. We had a young lady wait on us & she was so patient with all the questions we had. The food was delicious. We had a meat & vegetable platter. Our only critic would be that the man, who seemed to be the owner, came out from the back several times & spoke with all of the other tables except for ours. Not sure what that was about but I also wouldn’t be surprised if it was because we are a lesbian couple. The young lady & gentleman servers were so pleasant & the food was so good, we didn’t care about any prejudice anyone may have had though. Tbh, we’d still go back & we highly recommend it.
