The food is amazing!! I had the lamb. My wife and I shred the sides which were better than I had hoped for. We also had the honey wine, which was quite tasty and a bit stout. Elsa and her husband were more than gracious. He took time to explain how to eat the wonderful food! Elsa came out during our dinner and checked on us. I felt like I was eating at home, and she, a mom. It was well worth the drive from the Zona R... View all feedback.
What Emily J doesn't like about Elsa's Ethiopian:
The food was delicious, but the ordering process was quite confusing. The menu states that when you order a main dish, you get two sides. My husband and I wanted to try different main dishes along with our own selections of sides. However, the owner insisted that we should order in a different way, which was quite frustrating. Despite that, the food was really good. View all feedback.
Oh.....my....god!!! The flavors are ridiculous! The service takes a while, but it is well worth the wait. Everything tasted amazing and fresh. The Honey wine is fantastic and addictive. We will be back

This eating establishment is one of the silent sleepers. Many people just don't know how good it is or that it exist. I would suggest for the beginner of Ethiopian food, if they're not strictly vegan, to try the platter combo of both meat and vegetarian to feel the real experience. And don't forget to take a friend or two. You'll probably get lucky and have the power behind Elda's, the wife, coming to your table and discussing the items on your platter, their rotation of eating,,the meaning of that arrangement and all those things that seem to look confusing when that huge platter arrives. And be sure to order the Honey Wine. It's something they mix and make there I've checked, I know their liquor supplier. But go there if you have not tried it yet and if you have, you know from the menu you have to go again. So on this one, follow your heart and stomach to Elsa's Ethiopian cafe/ Resturant.
I'd never had Ethiopian food before and, after reading the menu, asked what menu items were not as spicy since that is an issue for me. The gentleman pointed out several items and was so kind. The dishes were very plentiful and tasty. As we ate, Elsa came out and asked us (and others) how their food was and if she could get anything for us. It was a wonderful experience with options for vegan meals also!! We loved it! Honey wine yum!!
My husband and I decided to try a different cuisine and it was amazing!!! One of the best food I ever had !!! Like any other place that cooks REAL food it will take awhile for the food to get done, but believe us, it is worth the wait!!! The owner is very kind and will help you decide on what to eat!!! And the honey wine is a must !!!
