What DisabledVetEnjoyingLife likes about Abol Ethiopian Cuisine:
Quality Ethiopian Cuisine that one would suspect you would find in downtown DC. Very intimate and down to earth atmosphere. Great for a business lunch, casual dinner, or fun date. Very reasonable prices, excellent food, and very worth the price. Highly recommend. View all feedback. What Paige Waters doesn't like about Abol Ethiopian Cuisine:
Cute place and food tastes great. Too bad they depart from Ethiopian tradition and serve food in Western style bowls. Also injera was cold. Also,took more than half hour after giving our order to get served and they forgot to give us the side dishes that come wth the order. The place was not crowded So no excuse for poor service.
