They will treat you like family. There's easy street parking nearby. Walk inside to Eritrean art on the walls and a small bar area and a side room with small tables. Outside is a medium-sized outdoor patio with tables, chairs, and umbrellas for shade. To feed two of us, we ordered the vegetarian combo with six items- Ades, Yellow Split Peas, Alicha, Collard Greens, Shiro, and Cabbage. Everything was prepared by the mom and well-seasoned. My favorites were the Shiro (puree of chickpeas in a sauce) and the Yellow Split Peas. The items came on teff injera with extra injera. Afterwards, the mother poured us traditional coffee, which was a perfect way to end the lunch. We left very full and our entire meal cost $15.59 before taxes and tip. That's a steal in D.C.

I've been a customer here for a few years, I have mixed thoughts about this place…read more Nestled in the heart of the Aurora Highlands 23rd street restaurant strip, Enjera is a quaint, cutely-decorated eatery, adorned with paintings by Ethiopian artists, the city skyline of Addis Ababa, and framed French/Italian wine adverts. It's eclectic and encapsulates an element of the immigrant experience in how it's decorated. Likewise, despite three stars, I do keep coming back because the food is quite superb. Always flavorful and with a decent variety of traditional dishes on offer. Their veggie combo is among their signatures, and I often also get the Asa Spris (curried fish stew) when I visit. I do, unfortunately, have to dock a star here for some of the cuts they've had to make; a small side salad used to accompany most entrees, but now costs $9. I understand inflation is ever-present, but that's eyebrow-raising. Moreover, the injera they provide seems to be in smaller bundles than previously, usually not enough to complete a meal including the piece it is served on, which means you usually need to ask for more. And this segways to why I have to dock another star for the service quality; it could be much better lately. Typically, I find that I have to seat myself, which isn't a huge deal, but the waiters often disappear from the dining room for up to 15 minutes at a time. I've had to get up to refill my water or grab napkins from the waiter station, which I feel bad doing because it's technically not somewhere clients should be accessing on their own, but I often don't have any choice. Finally, the website hasn't been updated in years; don't look at the menu posted there unless you want to lament how inflation has taken its toll on affordability. Overall, I give Enjera props for having quality fare and a nice little venue, but there are some issues I'd encourage management to address.

Anyways, I decided to try the samosas and their potstickers...both were lovely appetizers. I could've gotten even more, but I didn't need all that. I've been hearing things about their sandwiches... perhaps I'll try one next time! The place reminded me of Big Daddy's in the sense that it was connected to a beer & wine shop. They have quite the variety of things, and there's a takeout spot in the back of it -- in fact, all the food seems to come from back there. It wasn't on the menu I was looking at, but they definitely have pizza. I'm going to have to try that next time I go. The vibe of the spot was really nice... but then again, it might've been the music. They do trivia, and they might do karaoke? Who knows. But either way, I'll be back!

No matter what you're expecting it to look like- you'll find a surprise in this bar. You need to come here for the experience. This is not a craft cocktail bar, not a fine dining restaurant.

Not only did the regulars and staff accept us- but welcomed and embraced us. We also had some pool pros help teach us how to play better! -APA pool league -lots of parking in the shopping center lot -they have great, cheap drink deals for happy hour and certain holidays. -karaoke several times a week- Mike the DJ is a very warm person with an amazing voice.

They even have a patio if you want to sit outside. The service was very good. My friend and I were splitting two different sandwiches and the waiter was kind enough to serve them separately. So, we didn't have to worry about anything. We started off with a half of order of onion rings. They were perfectly fried and delicious! There was a very generous amount! Then, we ordered the turkey and avocado sandwich. It was very good. But, the home run goes to the Le Pilgrim. The sandwich had fresh roasted turkey, cranberry-pecan relish, mashed potatoes,cornbread & apple stuffing, herb mayonnaise on French loaf with a gravy dunker on the side. It was a great sandwich and we both finished our halves. And, the dunking gravy was amazing. So, the food was delicious, service was very good, and prices were reasonable. I am dreaming about that sandwich! Full On Crafts....I will see you soon.

The brisket is so tender and flavorful and can be had in many options. Sandwich? Yes. Platter with mashed potatoes, etc.? Yes. Quesadilla? Yes! (Although they could add a little more cheese.) The battered fish is HUGE. The quality is fresh and the portions may leave you with something to eat the next day. There are still menu items we need to try but we keep ordering our favorites. We've enjoyed the atmosphere while dining (lunch and dinner), but this place can be crowded in the evenings and can get loud, but the good energy of people having fun is infectious. The staff have even made special accommodations for a family member with a disability when we've gone to dine in. Therefore, the staff is as nice as can be, the service has been excellent, and the bussers are right on the job to clear any unneeded glasses or plates at just the right time. I am so glad the new owners did so much to bring the Olney Ale House back to a place worth coming to. You can tell the hard work they put in to every aspect of their business. Olney needed this, IMHO.
