| - I am a long time regular here, and have to say, that this is probably the best Ethiopian food place in Toronto because it scores highly on all fronts, and does so consistently. While it might not be the best every single time, on average, this place is the best, and when its at its best, it definitely is the best (that was confusing I know).
this review is a combined review of my usual order (previously ordered over 20 times): veggie platter, doro wat. diet coke sometimes.
service: 2. yes its slow as hell everyone is correct on this end. this is the worst feature about this place. you should probably come here when you are not hungry, because by the time you are seated, your order is taken, the food is prepared, can realistically be 1.5-2.5 hours. so get ready to wait. the owner lady is nice and accommodating, but this does not make up for the slowest times in toronto (easily), now that I think about it, it is slower than the wait times in cuban resorts, where the workers are notoriously slow because there is simply not enough labour force to go around. anyways.
food: rated 5: fresh, delicious, both injera and the food itself. everything is great, thats how I will sum it up and i wont go into detail, because it simply is great and thats all!
portion size: rated 5: great portion size, large compared to other restaurants, and large compared to other Ethiopian restaurants.
price: rated 4: around 25-30$ for two people all in. not bad.
overall: killer value for the price, go here when you try to discover the inner Ethiopian. Although be forewarned that this food (if you never tried) it) takes times to getting used to, but this is the place to do it.
