The owner/cook is very welcoming and helpful in suggestion portions. The price is unbeatable. Look forward to comingback and trying other things off the menu soon!

I had the best Eriterean food of my life. Almaz the lady who cooked the food is so friendly smiling and hard working. You must visit with your family. read more I had the best Eriterean food of my life. Almaz the lady who cooked the food is so friendly smiling and hard working. You must visit with your family.

After chowing down though, I understood the rating. Definitely some of the better Ethiopian I've had in the area, and I've tried a few places. Reasonably priced and good portions.

I had to come back for the Key Wat because the food was just that good. For $15.99, you get a generous portion, which is an amazing value. The atmosphere immerses you in an authentic Ethiopian cultural experience, making you feel like you’re really there. The customer service is equally fantastic. Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 Vegetarian options: Yes, there is a vegetarian menu or section.
