    We came as a group of five and were surprised to find the restaurant completely empty during…read moretypical dinner hours. It might be the location, but honestly the food deserves way more customers, everything was fantastic. We ordered the Meat Combo, which came with Kitfo and Ayeb, Key Wot, Alicha Wot, and Gomen Besiga. The Kitfo, an Ethiopian-style steak tartare seasoned with coriander, mitmita (hot chili powder), and herbed butter, was incredibly flavorful. Most of the meats leaned on the spicy side, but when you mixed them with the veggies and injera, everything balanced out perfectly. My favorite was the Key Wot, a spicy stew of slow-cooked beef with onions, garlic, cardamom (korerima), berbere, and Ethiopian herbal butter. My second favorite was the Gomen Besiga, made with boiled beef cubes flavored with spices, onions, and garlic. The texture was surprisingly tender, almost like fish. We also got the House Combo, which includes a mix of meats and vegetables. It only comes with two meats, but it's a great option for first-timers because you get to try a wider variety of flavors. The waitress was very helpful and thoughtful, taking the time to explain each dish to us. And bonus, they have some parking available, which is super convenient. Overall, the food was amazing, and I really hope more people discover this local gem.

    Hoping to try every Ethiopian spot in Rainier Beach and the south end this year and this was a…read morestrong start! We were the only people in the restaurant and the kind owner explained that was because Ethiopians are fasting during their Christmas time. She also explained all the dishes that we got in the house combo including that her mom had just brought her spices back from Ethiopia! I really enjoyed the red lentil dish which was nice and spicy as well as the shiro and the beef tibs and of course the salad that is so simple but always so good. We also tried the Ethiopian coffee ceremony and the coffee was both delicious and strong! It also included this burning incense that filled the restaurant with a wonderful aroma. It made me wish that we had more Ethiopian coffee shops in Seattle. Would definitely return for the food and the people :) I love the south end
