I absolutely love Ethiopian food, and having lived in D.C. and Oakland, homes to two of the largest Ethiopian communities in the country, I've eaten plenty. For Ethiopian in Pittsburgh, Abay is the only game in town. I've been there twice now, and both experiences have been disappointing. The first thing that's odd about the place is that all the waiters and waitresses are white. Provided there are Ethiopians doing the cooking, this is not necessarily a bad thing (though, as I've mentioned in other reviews, I do rather enjoy being served by hot Ethiopian women). What is bad, or at least unimpressive, is the food. Kitfo, my favorite Ethiopian dish, is not on the menu for some reason, so I have to get cooked meat. This wouldn't be a dealbreaker, but the other dishes on the menu, while not terrible, are not quite up to par compared to what I've had in D.C. and Oakland. Finally, the injera is inferior, they don't give you much of it, and they charge you if you ask for more, which I've never seen elsewhere. I suppose if you live in Pittsburgh and want to try Ethiopian food, Abay is not so bad that it's not worth a try, but know that it can be much better.
