| - We were craving some Ethiopian and in cleveland is difficult to find, so we were glad to learn that zoma opened a month ago or so. We read the reviews before going and were a bit scared by the comments on service, but we had a free evening and decided to try anyway. Well, I guess they improved a lot on service: we were immediately seated even though the place was crowded, ordered immediately and the food came in 15 minutes. We ordered sambusas and the meat/ veggie combo, asked for a substitution (an extra veggie entree instead of the spicy beef) and they accommodated us with no issues. The food was very good, the mild beef stew very tasty, and all the veggies were spiced but not too much, delicious. The only very small complain: we had the combo to feed two people, and while the food is definitely enough for one, it might be not enough for two. A little more generous portions of veggies would have helped, but I also have to say that the owner (a very kind person) asked me what I liked most and when I mentioned the stew, he brought some more at the table (without me asking or complaining about anything). The ambient is casual and relaxed, and there is a BYOB with 7$ corkage fee. We will definitely come back and try some more food!
