| - As a former vegatarian (and now a dirty, dirty carnivore), I can say I've eaten a lot of Ethiopian food during my life. And, this place ranks high.
It's located in an unglamorous, partially deserted stripmall (like most delicious LV restaurants). And then you walk in....and...okay, not glamorous inside either. Don't even go into the bathroom, trust me, you will be frightened.
But the food, the food. I always order the vegetarian combo (some habits die hard) and at least one meat option. The vegetarian combo has a great selection of dishes that includes cabbage, pureed vegetables, lentils and a salad.
My favorite meat dishes are the lamb tibs, gored gored, and Kitfo. The lamb tibs and gored gored (cubed, cooked beef) are all marinated and served in delicious sauces. Do try the house Kitfo, the raw ground beef. It may sound scary but it's really just ethiopian steak tartare (I told you i'm a really dirty carnivore now).
Between two people, two entrees is wayyy more than enough to order. All the entrees average from $8-$10 and everything is served on injera(the big, bread pancake). Also, if you don't know, eat with your right hand and use the extra injera bread as your utensils.
Please note that service here is at a "leisurely pace." Be prepared for an extended dinner as the waitresses, while super nice and pseudo attentive, are generally very busy and take a while to bring you the check.
