They've even sold me injera to go when I want to attempt to make Ethiopian at home.

The stew in the middle of our plate was the most flavorful and quite delicious. The greens were ok and the potatoes as well but I would love try other options. We came in on Saturday evening around 5 and it was not crowded. We were seated immediately. I didn't see a lot of options for drinks so we just had water. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. The outside is right next to a Mexican restaurant so you hear the music from there. We sat inside and it had a very African style. I will absolutely come back again. Also, I think it is worth noting that it is authentic, so there are no silverware on the table. Ethiopian food is eaten using the rolled pancake "injera" bread that comes with it. I recommend washing your hands before eating and just enjoying the experience.

The buffet options are sold by the pound and traditional Liberian dishes like cassava leaf (excellent, sorry I forgot to take a pic), palm butter, etc are priced separately. For the buffet, everything is tasty but I highly recommend the spinach. There is plenty of seating, the place is very clean, the music is great and the staff (might have been the owner?) is so kind. Can't wait to go back next time I'm in Richmond.

I understand the food is made to order, however my husband also ordered a drink three times and waited almost an hour to get it. My BIL and I ordered sparkling water that never came to our table. I think they were just understaffed.

I had an egg and soy-sauge sandwich. I intended to order vegan but didn't realize the egg was real egg, I assumed it was vegan because my sausage was. I ate it anyway because I didn't want to waste it but next time will read the menu more carefully. Needless to say my egg and soy-sauge on an everything bagel was delicious with a side of fries potatoes and lemonade. I prefer OJ but they don't sell OJ. that was odd to me but the food was great so I went with it. I for sure will go back again. I loved the conversation with the cashier who served us and the food was really good.

We always chat when I go pick up my food and she makes me feel welcomed. Ethiopian food is one of those things I think anyone looking for flavorful food should try. The different spices and seasonings they use are so good. Some dishes are spicy, so definitely ask for mild if you can't take the heat. The restaurant is small with some tables to dine in. There's parking out front. It's across from Dollar general in a small business strip. My food hit the spot. The shrimp were cooked just right and were tasty. The gomen and lentils were good as well, and my fav is the sour tasting injera bread that compliments everything. I especially love when is saucy and the injera soaks up all the juices... Mmmm. There are no forks, so come prepared to eat with your hands!! I recommend this place! Check them out!!

I think that this place could be so much better, if they may be hired better cooks. I'm not sure if…read moreone of the owners is a cook or it's a family owned business, but one thing I've learned family is not gonna take your business as serious as you would. The last time I went there, I ordered the goat stew, almost 40 minutes before I arrive. Once I got there, they said oh we're out of goat, they asked if I wanted beef, no one called me no one communicated. I was very shocked that they had someone that supposedly is supposed to be at the front at the register. A Caucasian lady, but the whole time I was there she was in the back, talking, laughing joking. When she told me they had no goat and if I wanted beef, I said sure, but why no one never called me, no one never communicated to me that you guys were out of goat and she just stood there and looked at me crazy she didn't say oh my gosh I'm so sorry you know I'll see if I can talk to my manager to see what we can do for the inconvenience. I didn't drive, I was in a Uber. So with Uber you only have a time limit at each stop, but thankfully the Uber driver was so nice and pleasant and I explained the situation and they didn't leave me. And I had autistic individual with me as well, so that could've been very bad. I know she just looked at me crazy because she was supposed to call and reach out and let me know something. So the whole time I'm there. I'm waiting for her to you know come talk to me or something. She's in the back just laughing and joking and you know just back there not upfront. As people were coming in, she'll come poke her head out and then go back in the back. I'm like what are you here for you not to cook so. I've been to Yendidi so many times, every time I've went there's always somebody at the front whether it's a guy or a woman. I've never seen a person that's supposed to be in the front, in the kitchen the whole time as if they're cooking. When I got my food. the beef was actually goo, they only gave me three pieces of beef two medium size pieces and a small piece which I was upset about. They could've gave me like more especially I be had I had to wait. Nobody called me or anything. The pounded yam, which I was so shocked that you have to pay for separately now it's not something that you can request as a side with your meal like how you used to be able to, on DoorDash that's how it is. The pounded yam was very soggy. My only issue with this location, is they just don't seem like they really care to put effortin, Idk if they lost their spark or care to deliver great food. I think that they give mediocre because they're not really interested in sharing their culture with Americans, it feels like they give us very poor quality food because they know half of us don't know the difference. But that's a bad look because individuals who are from their culture that come and look for authentic food come and eat. I've seen reviews were they review saying how they're not making authentic food, and selling old food. So it's very unfortunate. The places that I used to get very good African food from are no longer open, which is unfortunate. Covid took them out of business or they relocated to another state, and they were really really good and consistent very pleasant. So Yen need to work on, customer service. They need to work on quality, because all it takes is for someone to open up a restaurant, serve the same food. & They really have a heart and love for cooking and seeing people enjoy wonderful food with pleasant customer service and very consistent food Quality, only takes for one business like that, to come to close a lot of places down.

My husband always says he wouldn't know the food is vegan if i didn't tell him, it is always so filling & flavorful! The ambiance in here is so chill! I love that there are books, artwork, crystals & spiritual things for sale, but also a mini library & some chess tables & things to enjoy as well. This space always feels welcoming & peaceful & well worth their prices with their portions & unique offerings! The first time i went, it was a little confusing because there is only street parking & Jikoni cafe is inside of House of Consciousness, but they are the perfect place if you are looking for a little bit of magic & a good bite to eat!

We stopped by for dinner. I got the chili bowl and jabini pasta. My sister got the kush salad and a…read morechili bowl also. They sell different vegan dishes and most have what they call kush in them. It seems to be some sort of grain, but I really don't know. But I do like it. They have Alfredo, nachos, Mac n cheese, desserts, and smoothies. Some of the food is reasonable and some is pricey. A few desserts were $10-$15. I wanted to try them, but not for that price. We placed our order and looked around the store. They have updated the store/restaurant, so it's a more modern vibe. You can read books or hang out inside, so that's cool. The restroom was clean. There was plenty of seating to dine in. The store side sells books, crystals, jewelry, and more!! The cashier and cook were both very friendly!! I'm not vegan so I stick to what taste familiar to me to be safe. The chili is good, you wouldn't even know it's vegan. Definitely get the vegan nacho cheese to kick it up a notch. It also comes with chips. The alfredo came with veggies and kush. I'm glad it was saucy. I got it fully loaded so it came with a hash brown on top also. It was pretty good, but could use a little more seasoning to elevate the taste.. The last time I ate here the portions were a little larger, they seem to be noticeably smaller this time, so that's the only difference I've noticed. The kush usually confuses my stomach for a few days afterwards. It also may make you feel full faster but, I think it's worth trying. If your a vegan you should check them out, but even if you're not you can probably find something to try! Check them out!!
