I'm sorry that I can't agree with others who have posted glowing reviews of this restaurant. I simply wasn't that impressed. This was my first time eating Ethopian food. Seeing as Ethiopia is one of the poorest countries in the world where people are starving, it seemed weird that they would have a cuisine to call their own in the first place. I had the vegetarian platter, which came with several different kinds of items, all placed on top of a tasteless, spongy bread. None of the items were bad. Everything was decent. It just wasn't great. The spices they use are very similar to what you'd find in Indian food. Maybe if they used the spices a little more liberally, the food wouldn't have been so bland.
The ambiance in the restaurant was also of a slightly lower standard than I would have wanted. It's not very fancy. I was there on a date, and this wasn't exactly the type of place where I would go again on a date. I think this is more of a restaurant where I'd bring my family to eat. But if you require a place that inspires romance on some level, this isn't the place for you.
For all the unflattering things I've said about this place, one of the best things about it is that everything is very reasonably priced. It's not like they're giving you less than what you paid for. The prices are commensurate with the quality of food and type of restaurant this is. I would eat here again. I was just hoping for better on my first dining experience.
