| - I don't know how this place has ANY stars. I've tried this place twice, and as a huge fan of Ethiopian food, I've been nothing but disappointed and disgusted BOTH times I have been. I typically love little hole-in-the-wall places but this spot is legitimately GROSS. We dined in, which was probably our biggest mistake. The floors, tables, walls, everything you touch is sticky and appears to be covered in some sort of film. I asked our waiter to clean our table (yeah I had to ask for a clean table and there wasn't another patron in sight), and it took him 10 minutes just to find a rag. He didn't use any sort of cleaning supplies just water which just kinda spread the stickiness and film, instead of actually cleaning it. I had to keep my hand at my sides just to avoid touching the nasty table. They were out (both times) of lamb shanks and shawarma, which was pretty much the reason we came. My glass of water had some sort of mucus or slime on the side of it and when I asked for another glass of water I was ignored. They never brought it so I went and bought a bottle of water from the neighboring Somali market. My food was pretty bland and what flavor I did notice was just hints of dirty, stale grease. We only ate a small portion of our food and just left the money on the table because we were so disgusted with the unsanitary conditions and lack of attentive, responsive staff. I got sick the last time I ate here, and I am not suprised! If the dining area is in such horrendous conditions, I cannot IMAGINE what the kitchen looks like! Save your health and do not eat here!
