    First time trying Ethiopian and let me start by saying it was delicious. This place has street…read moreparking and is a little dark inside but you can choose where you want to sit. It has smaller tables so better to go with just 1-3 other people. We got the Sega Bebaynatu Meat Combo, we didn't realize the portion of this and was recommended getting 2. Kind of a mistake especially since my friend couldn't eat all the meat. It was huge, there were only of us but it came out on a huge platter. You can definitely share the one portion. The food is also pretty heavy so I got full faster especially since they give you a plate of Bread and it is also underneath all the food. The lentils was probably my favorite it balanced out the rest of the flavors and this dish was absolutely full of the flavor. If you like spicy and sour this is for you. And if you really like sour, the salad has the perfect dressing. I did ask for a little more salad, but it is an extra cost so keep that in mind. There was only one worker and i think kitchen staff so service is a little slow. It is hard to get their attention so keep that in mind.

    Asmara is located on the busy Mass Ave, there is street parking available. The restaurant is…read morerelatively small and is decorated with Ethiopian decor. We came here on a Friday night and the restaurant was full and there was only one server. The waitress was nice, but clearly overwhelmed and it took a while for her to take our order and get the check. The food itself was good and fresh. We got the chicken, lamb, and vegetable combo. It came on a big plate with lots of food. The food was served on top of two layers of injera and she gave us a plate with additional injera. We ran out and it was hard to flag her down to ask for me. It turns out to be $3 per additional piece fyi. Overall, I would say it's the best Ethiopian food I've had, but they should have at least two servers on the weekends.
