The food had some really great flavors and the service was phenomenal. The staff was super sweet and accommodating.
Here's what I ordered:
Ethiopian Hot Tea-super delicious. You can tell that the tea consisted of real ingredients such as cinnamon sticks and cloves.
Abugida Feast w/ Doro Wet(chicken)-the flavors were really great. My gripe was with the potatoes and chickpeas which were undercooked. That was a texture that I didn't enjoy, however, the seasoning was on point. The Doro Wet sauce had a little kick of spice that was nice and a ric thick consistency. The chicken itself didn't have much chicken flavor nor much flavor from the sauce. It was as though it was boiled (without seasoning) and then added to the sauce right before serving.
Kitfo-It didn't click in my mind that this was mid- rare MINCED meat and not steak cubes. I was expecting something completely different, but had to check myself once I re-read the item description. It tasted like mid-rare..minced...meat..like the menu says lol. I wasn't ready. There were no strong flavors. In fact I brought it home with the intention of cooking it until it's well done and seasoning it to my liking. I wasn't too fond of this item, but it may be good if cooked until well done.
Rice- I ordered my dishes with rice because I am not a fan of the injera bread, which is the traditional accompaniment. The rice was slamming. It was extra long grain white rice with some nice aromatic action going on. I got some to go.
Ethiopian Coffee-I'm not a coffee person, but wanted to have the experience. The coffee had notes of cocoa and had a bit of a bitter after taste which was, surprisingly, quite nice.
I'll be back again to try some more dishes.
