When there was no one going in and out and it was the end of the day, I should have taken a queue. And definitely looked at my food before leaving. (I eagerly waited for a $21 subpar takeout.) I received a $7 vegan cheesecake slice that was quite little (3 inches), as well as Black Eyed Peas soup that looked more like Black Bean soup. I didn't see any entire black-eyed peas, and I received a crumpled up slightly burnt injera. Unfortunately, I will never return; nonetheless, the young girls who assisted me were very kind.

My sister and I stopped in for a late dinner and the food was delicious. We enjoyed the veggie combo with lentils, cabbage, potatoes, squash and collard greens with an order of lamb and rice. Our server was very sweet, we will definitely be back! Also loved the raw juice options 👍🏾 Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes Injera Chips and Guacamole

Saw this place while driving by and stopped in for lunch. Got the meat combo plate on a platter for two (V2, 3, 4 / B1 / C3) and after meal coffee for two. We opted to eat with our hands as we had Ethiopian food before. There was hot towel service before and after our meal. The food was delicious and filling. No regrets; everything was very pretty good and I'm looking forward to tasting more things on the menu. Compliments to the chef/owner who was gracious enough to chat with us for a while. She was happy and suprised to see that we were familiar enough with Ethiopian cuisine to not order Jollof rice and Fufu (West African cuisine). All in all, great Ethiopian food experience, will come though again! Meal type Lunch Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Ethiopian Flat Bread
TLDR: The food is authentic and delicious. The service is phenomenal. We missed this place while it was closed for renovations. We fell in love with it three years ago when we were on a weekend trip to Cranbrook. The staff are the nicest people ever. So kind and welcoming. Service is always great. They check in on you multiple times and have never been rude. They are happy to serve anyone with a smile. The food, wow. The bread is so good and always fresh, forgive me for not remembering the name of it. It's one of my favorite things here. We get the meat combo for two and love the B1 berbere beef and the C3 chicken with potatoes as well as three veggies sides and the Katengna appetizer (berbere bread). It's not TOO spicy but all of the food has at least some kick to it. I will warn you that you won't be offered silverware. Don't worry, you won't need it. But if you request it they have it. They will also offer a hot towel before and after the meal to clean your hands. They have a bar here that can make their signature cocktails and smoothies. I had the one with rum and ginger beer. It was delicious. They weren't able to make a Manhattan (my normal drink) because they only serve drinks on their list. It's not a small list and looked like they had something for everyone. Try this place if you want something different that feels like comfort food. Try this place if service and atmosphere is important to you. You'll love it!

I’ve never had Ethiopian food and it was a great first experience. The service members were very kind. I enjoyed the food. It’s definitely a different cuisine, but I thought it was delicious. If you don’t like strong flavored foods or a lot of spices, this is not the cuisine for you. You are supposed to eat everything with the injera. I didn’t mind it but didn’t love it. It’s kind of a spongy bread and doesn’t have a lot of flavor. I would come back here for sure! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30

I was so excited to try this place. But I’m so greatly disappointed. The food was cold and the portions were so small. I literally left hungry after spending 50 dollars on a meal. Everything tasted like it came from a can and the staff was steadily making faces and laughing thinking we couldn’t see them. I felt so unwelcomed. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this to anyone. Especially considering the prices vs what you actually get. I was so hungry after that I started eating month old trail mix in the car.

This was my second time eating at Taste of Ethiopia. A friend of mine introduced me to this restaurant, and I was excited to introduce another friend to their amazing food and wonderful, warm service, and we were not disappointed. We have the eight item sample platter and every vegetable was so savory, well seasoned, and delicious! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
My friend and I drove half an hour to come to this place and we left very disappointed and HUNGRY. We ordered the combo meal and the waitress recommended a bigger portion since there wa two of us. I was kind of shocked when I seen the plate we got since we were paying $50 for it. We tried everything with an open mind but it was cold and mashed up beans. The waitress only checked up on us once and was snickering the whole time. It should have been a sign that the place was empty. When we got our bill we were charged gratuity which made our bill $60!!!!!! We left starving and had to go get another meal 0/10 I don’t recommend.
