  • Went here for dinner last night and was left satiated, but tragically underwhelmed with the service. Upon entering the restaurant around 6:30 on a Thursday night, it took about 5 minutes for the two of us to be seated. Don't misunderstand, there was no line and plenty of open tables--it just took that long for the host to come up from behind the bar (at the far end of the restaurant) to seat us. It was another 5 minute wait until he returned to check in on us. We were ready to order (Sambusa, vegetarian comb, and Doro Wat). We also asked for water as well. Then the true waiting began... It took no less that 15 minutes and two requests until--wait for it--we received ONE glass of water. It came with the promise of "one more soon". Huh? Was there a clean glass shortage? Has the cost of water increased? Going eco-friendly? Another 10 minutes passed until the second promised glass of water came. By this time, we already instituted a water rationing schedule: there would be no refills during this meal. Nor were there. The service was so bad that dominated our lighthearted discussion. While it provided some comic relief, it did not set the stage for a great dinner. The food; however, while not the best I ever had, was good. The chicken Doro Wat was particularly well seasoned. I have never had a more tender chicken that literally fell off the bone. The Miser Alicha lentils were probably the best of the veggies. When it came time to pay, we noticed not one, but two patrons standing in front of the bar trying to get some attention (for about 10 minutes)--whether water, food, check, or hugs I do not know. We opted to pay in cash just so we could leave without waiting an extra 15 minutes for him to get back to us. Overall the meal was filling, particularly with the injera (spongy flatbread). Still, the service was severely lacking so we'll probably stay away for a while. TIP FOR VEGETARIANS: if you are a vegetarian dining with a carnivore, all of the food will come out on one massive plate where cross-contamination may occur. This didn't bother us (as neither of us are vegetarian), but I watch our for my vegetarian friends. Perhaps if you asked, they could prepare separate plates. TIP FOR FIRST DATE: Don't! You'll be eating with your hands off the same plate. This level of intimacy may not be suiting to such an endeavor.
