I have been wanting to try Ethiopian food for a few years now ever since my wife brought gave me…read moresome leftovers over 4 years ago. Today we finally went, and the experience exceeded expectations! The food was excellent and the staff were helpful and answered my questions about the food and helped me and my wife decide what to get. The combo platter is a great option for trying out several different meats and veggies and it does not break the bank. There was plenty of food for 2. The building was nicely appointed and the convenient hand washing station made the experience of eating primarily with your hands much less messy than one might think. As a person who is not very good with spicy heat, there were still so many foods that I could eat without my face melting. The dry spice mix and the dipping sauces were too spicy for me, but it did not matter, as the food had plenty of seasoning and flavor packed into it already. I can't wait to go back and try some of their other offerings!

Absolutely incredible dinner last night at Ledet Ethiopian Restaurant and Bar ! A friend of mine…read morehas raved about this restaurant for years and the Hubs and I finally went last night. This was without question one of the best meals I've ever had. The service was excellent and all of the staff were so warm and welcoming. It's a vegan's paradise! Can't wait to go back with the kids next time. The tofu tibs, cabbage, green beans, and yellow split peas were my favorites but it was all delicious....and we have leftovers for days.

Visited 6 June 2026…read more Overall, we had a good experience. Parking is shared with other businesses in the plaza, but there is plenty of available parking, including enough space to accommodate 18 wheeler trucks. When we first arrived, the older employee seemed a bit intense. He encouraged us to take our time reviewing the menu, but remained nearby watching us before we ordered. He also came across as somewhat aggressive while my friend was placing their order. After another customer voiced a complaint and left, his demeanor appeared to improve and the remainder of the visit was more pleasant. The food portions were very generous. We ordered the goat with chapati, which resembles roti skin, and two people were able to share it comfortably and leave satisfied. We also shared the king fish and rice, which was excellent and still left us with leftovers. Another friend ordered the tibis with spaghetti, and that portion was large enough that leftovers had to be taken home as well. The menu described the tibis as spicy, but we did not find it spicy at all. The food was flavorful, the portions offered great value, and there was plenty of seating available. While the service could have been more welcoming at the start, the quality and quantity of the food made for an enjoyable dining experience overall.

I recently tried this place out. I've had Ethiopian food a handful of times and it never agreed…read morewith my tastebuds. This was my final attempt and luckily I found something I like. It was one of their non-meat dishes. It was tasty. The place is very unassuming, but the service and hospitality are there. I asked for a to-go container and ended up getting a refill on my entire order before I left. Lol Thank you! My lunch became my dinner.

Embilta is a hidden gem!…read more Food is always excellent and great for sharing - I love bringing groups here because the dishes are so large. Service is okay - there are not many staff, so the wait times can be a bit long, but the pay-off is soooo worth it. Bang for your buck is top notch - food is super cheap but DELICIOUS. I suggest getting the vegetarian sampler and a few meat curries.

I kept walking to the neighboring office to schedule a mammogram. Lady comes out gives me paperwork to complete. I strike up convo abt the smell. She walks away and comes back and says the building has "pop-up" vendor for lunch and today was Ethiopian. Basically, this was not my lunch plans for today, but it smelled sooo good. she says she never had ethiopian..I recommended my old faithful spot North Druid Hills area ("Desta") for her as a newbie. Anyway....i walk around until I located the smell. y'all it smelled so good. The selection was small which is great. it minimize indecisiveness and simple. My food barely made it out the parking lot. mind you it's paid parking lot and time was ticking. I was just as good as it smelled. Recommend trying them out at their actual location.

The beef sambusas are the essential starter crispy, well-seasoned, and gone in about two minutes. For the main, I went with the Meat Lovers combo: lamb, salmon, and filet mignon, with gomen, cabbage, mushrooms, and rice. It's rare for a spot to nail three different proteins on one plate, but the filet was tender and the lamb was seasoned like they actually care about the craft. Eating it with the injera is non-negotiable; you need it to catch all that flavor. The portions are heavy, so I did the smart thing and took the rest home. Honestly, that's the pro move--the spices hit even harder when you run it back for round two later that night. If you're in the area and want a meal that actually justifies the hype, this is it. No gimmicks, just solid food and good music.

Vegan food is here!!! NO soy, dairy, or gluten!…read more Since becoming a meatless, soy free, dairy free, and gluten free person for health reasons, I've been really careful of where to dine out. I do a lot of research before heading to a restaurant. A lot of vegan restaurants serve mock meats (soy) and have bread (gluten). I had Ethiopian food many years ago at Desta and enjoyed it. However, I wasn't sure what the injera bread was made from so doing a Google search lead me to the recipe. It is made of teff gain, which is gluten free!! Win-win for me! It is one of the smallest grains too! Three days of the week - Saturday, Wednesday, & Friday - Gursha has a vegetarian buffet. It will be a mix of 6 items from their vegetarian entrees. I let them choose 6 items for me. The following is from their website Shiro Watt - Split pea or check pea flour cooked with red onions, oil or butter, red pepper (berebere), garlic and Spice. Gomen - Fresh collard greens cooked and seasoned with oil onion, ginger, garlic, herbs and spice. Misir Watt - A stew made from organic split red lentils cooked with onion, oil spiced red pepper, flavored with ginger, garlic, and cardamom. Atiklett - Cabbage mixed with chunks of potatoes and carrot cooked with onion, flavored with ginger, garlic, and turmeric. Yekik Watt - Seasoned yellow split peas slowly cooked with oil, onion, ginger, turmeric and garlic. Fosolia - Fresh green beans and carrots cooked with oil, onions, fresh garlic, jalapeno, ginger, and salt. Mushroom with potato - Fresh sliced mushroom and potato cooked with onions, oil, fresh garlic, ginger, herbs, salt and spices. Dinich Wott - Chunks of potatoes cooked with onions, garlic seasoned in tomato and red pepper sauce and salt. Key sir (beetroot) salad - key sir mixed with carrot, potato, onion, lemon juice, oil, and jalapeno. My plate consisted of Gomen, Fosolia, Dinich Wott, Key Sir, Shiro Watt, Atiklett. They were all plated on top of injera. I also received two additional injera on the side. I loved everything I got. If you don't like beets then you won't like the Key Sir. My favorite is the Shiro Watt. It was so flavorable and delicious. I could taste the spices. It was soooo much food that I wasn't able to finish!! I ate only 2/3 of it. I was asked if I wanted more injera or even more food. I just couldn't! Oh yeah, when I asked for water, I got a bottle of water from the fridge. That was fine with me. Lunch was only $10.99 for the veggie buffet. It's been almost 5 hours since I've eaten. I can tell you I did not eat breakfast (thank goodness), and I'm still stuff!!! 124/2017
