I've been to a lot of Ethiopian restaurants, and this is by far the best one I've ever been to. The vegetarian combination is unbelievable. The service is slow and it's not the most romantically decorated restaurant ever, but it is definitely worth it. It is by far my favorite restaurant in the Triangle. More

I just made my first trip. Fabulous! Not swanky, high class, prom date kind of place, but the food was fantastic. Great for a vegetarian like myself. More

Not the BEST ethiopian I've ever had, but its damned good. Great place to take a vegetarian. Just be sure to get separate plates for meat and veggies. More
