This is great establishment where the staff is always so friendly and attentive. The place is clean and there is even a hand washing station. I love how the Ethiopian culture is highlighted from the videos broadcasted on the tv, art and decor throughout the restaurant. The food was amazing. We got mild spice and it did not disappoint. We got the 4 person meal for 3 of us and there was plenty of left overs. There was a. Assortment of meats and vegetarian options and they were all delicious. My only issue was the injera and some of the sides were cold or close to Lukewarm. I love hot food or at least warm. Also, there is paid street side parking outside.

She is super friendly and helpful. Your spice level and reasonable modifications are accommodated. I got the awet combo, which typically has beef, lamb, chicken wing + egg and swapped the lamb for chicken breast. I like my food spicy and my combo did not disappoint. My friend is a fan of the veggie combo. The portions and food quality are a great value for the price. Take what you can't (shouldn't?) finish-the leftovers are dreamy, and finish with a pot of the tea to balance out your meal.

Good selection of vegan and vegetarian meals as well. Went with a group and everything ordered looked worth trying. Good sized portions and affordable.

I do not know the name of the man who attended to me but he was very patient and consistently checking in and providing update on my meal preparation. Order ahead by calling if you don't wanna wait in store like I did. Now to the food, I had the peppered ponmo and the beef suya. The suya portion was more than generous which I was grateful for since I had to share. The tasting left me very nostalgic. The ponmo was spicy to satisfaction. Although the seasoning could be improved, it is overall a great spot that I would be eating from again!

As much as I was hoping for goat and spaghetti, I took this in stride. The food was pretty good! I can see why on a better day it'd get these 4-5 star reviews. The beef was cooked perfectly, vegetables were fresh, green sauce was tasty, and the rice was well seasoned. I did find the rice to be a bit too watery and the beef seemed it'd been sitting for a bit (though it did come out hot). But I'm not sure the food is so good that I'd drive an hour to return not knowing what they even have available...

You would never know going inside this was an old Arby's...they really decorated it to be sexy, intimate and comfortable with a bit of elevation Good: amazing cocktails...strong with great flavor and I felt it was a good pour Decent: Calamari appetizer I could reorder..I love the red seasoning they powdered on top..it elevated what what have been regular frozen fried calamari Ok: Main meal Peanut stew with beef . The cuts of beef was huge and not flavorful. The peanut stew needed more dimension...I felt the flavor fell flat...good but not amazing. Definitely not spicy at all..maybe a little more salt and some spice I ordered spinach stew/soup with chicken and fish...more tomato based soup. Definitely needed some spicyness it fell flat without some pepper to the stew The fufu was ok...softer and not as elastically as I like fufu Needs Improvement: service staff!!! They had one waitress that knew what she was doing, a white I think maybe manager that was not managing or training the others and 2-3 other waitresses that acted more like food runners then waitress.. We arrived and was seated quickly..got water ordered in decent time...got one drink then took 15 minutes to get the second drink..then the table in front of us received their appetizer before we got ours but they came in 10 min after we did. Then service went down hill...peanut stew came out...okkk We waited 45 minutes..my food never arrived..asked the waitress..I think she forgot to put my order in... Never received the jollof rice we had ordered She came with the kettle and water bowl for us to wash our hands AFTER we ate...sigh

This establishment was recently remodeled and there was a slight name change from Kalakuta Grill…read more We went there to celebrate two of my friend's birthday. The ambiance was very intimate with a touch of luxury. Most of the area has dim lighting and intentional art pieces showcasing the West African culture. The music selection was also great. This is a great place for large or small groups. The restroom needs paper towel or a door opener though. This is the best service that I have ever gotten at a restaurant. Hewa (our server) went above and beyond to ensure that we were well taken care of. From helping us to choose from the extensive menu, helping us with pictures, etc. The food selection was overwhelming because there was just so much great options to choose from. We were all satisfied with the portion sizes for the money paid. The food was well seasoned and flavorful throughout. I think our least favorite meal was the suya but the wings are the best I have had at a restaurant. The wings were well seasoned and the juicy meat effortlessly came off the bones. My friends also received complimentary birthday cake that was really delicious.

Beans are hard and taste like a can, the beef was so chewy you can probably blow a bubble with it. The potatoes taste like salt and who makes bad beef patties? No one before here. Whoever said this was good has clearly never had Jamaican food before. This was by far the worst I have ever had in my life. I just wasted fifty bucks on this mess. I wish I could give negative stars. I could not make it even a quarter way through. Nasty.

The location…read morewas closed for indoor dining, but you could order and pick up your food from the drive thru and enjoy your meal in their nice outdoor seating area. By the time we left, they were open for business inside. There is A LOT to be said for a business opening under the circumstances that they can work under, so I really appreciated them being open and serving! I ordered the vegetable stew, a veggie pattie, and a jerk chicken kid's meal. You will get so much food even with the kid's meal. The chicken was cooked very well and tasted delicious. I ordered the spicy sauce, and while I think it could have been much hotter, I think most people would find it sufficiently spicy. I would 100% get the vegetable stew and the jerk chicken again, but would probably pass on the pattie. Nothing wrong with it, but the other dishes were just that much more amazing that I'd like to save room for them. Don't hesitate to give this location a chance. You won't regret it!

Maaaaaaan, it was so good I went two days in a row on some "I work too hard not to treat myself"…read moretype time. Here's the real: While this places price point is below the amount of food you get- everyone knows in today's climate, eating out isn't financially responsible on a whim. Ok; now to the food. Why haven't I tried this before now? I ultimately went because I attended a Yelp elite event around the corner at a coffee shop & I was starving for something savory yet not something that is already in my monthly rotation. I saw the larger than life sign as I drove down the street and pulled over. I checked their menu online first to see if they were open & what their price point was. All checked out. On the first day, I ordered the chicken curry meal for $14.95 plus I added two beef Pattie's & one curry shrimp pattie. I was blown away by the flavor in the curry chicken, the veggies were cooked perfectly & the flavor was on point. The rice & cabbage were also great (I wish I got a little more cabbage tho lol but that's just me being greedy) The second day - I brought my man. He ordered what I had on the first day and I ordered the jerk chicken + rice/beans & cabbage. WOWZERS! I noticed on the ordering site you can order whole jerk turkeys & chickens for special occasions as well as catering sized sides. I'm 100% plotting on my next visit. My tummy and tastebuds were so pleased! Thank you YASO!
