| - Nazareth has its charms, and its notable flaws but when you get the bill, all sins are forgiven. Where else can me and 2 friends (one being a very hungry full grown man) stuff ourselves to the point of bursting for $22? TWENTY TWO DOLLARS. It leaves you scratching your head with Injera scented hands.
I judge all Ethiopian restos on the quality of their messir wat, which is my favorite dish, and Nazarath's is not bad. Not as good as their neighbor Lalibela, but still good none-the-less.
Every Visit is prefaced by a ridiculously long wait, as maybe 15 people can actually sit and eat at once. Additionally, the entire place is run by the owner, one woman acting as waitress, busser, cashier, etc etc. She is often scattered and sometimes forgetful, but she will be brutally honest and will not let you order more food than she thinks you can finish.
There is a bar if you like to sit there and wait, and observe the kitchen through a tiny service window.
Cash Only! and Go on Off hours, trust me. Standing against a wall watching people eat is really not fun. The room is so teeny, only a handful even have the privilege to wait inside. Not good for inclement weather. And don't even attempt a party larger than 4 or you will be waiting FOREVER as she will seat deuces etc first.
Food is A-Ok, The price bumps this up a full star.
