Abyssinia Restaurant

What a treat to find great Ethiopian food in Orange County. This is definitely a must try, you will be a regular when you do..It is family owned and nestled in the corner, which makes it even more cute and quaint. I received excellent service and more than enough food to take home.Yummy!

I highly recommend this place .We ordered traditional combo, 2 beef and chicken item.Also honey wine and Ethiopian tea .Must order combo, they have everything you want to eat in the bread and specially vegetables are so good , very simple flavor but flavorful not sure what kind of seasoning they use but really good.I would go back and order combo again .Also server was very helpful and very caring !!!I recommend this place

it has been a while since I had Ethiopian food and we had the veggie option and it was amazing. it was packed with flavor and we just finished the entire platter and left stuffed. Washed it all down with a delicious and refreshing Ethiopian beer.The owners daughter was our server and she was so attentive and very friendly as well. It's always a good sign that the food is amazing when the locals flock to it. We definitely plan on returning and recommended enough!!

Wow, I can't believe that I am back so soon! However, this time, we dined in, and look how pretty the plating is! My sister and I brought our parents and they absolutely loved the food as well, especially my mom because she is very fond of veggies. We ordered the traditional combo for 3 (again) but with an additional side of beef awaze tibs, which was so deliciously flavored and tender. I believe that this was my dad's favorite. Compared to the other place we had tried this dish at, this place makes the awaze tibs less spicy, which was better for the rest of my family. The food took a long time to come out because they were short-staffed, but the service was still very good! They kept coming out to apologize and update us on the status of our food, which I appreciated. Portions were generous like before, and we ended up having leftovers to bring home, which both my sister and I consumed the next day. Love love this place, please try it if you haven't done so already (:

melts in your mouth. came on a sunday evening for dinner and place was quiet with a few tables beside us also enjoying the vegetarian platter. we added a plate of lamb to it and it was amazing with all the vegetarian dishes. i ordered the spiced chai without the black tea bag, and it was so delicious and comforting on a cold night. our server was super attentive especially to my elderly grandmother. i love the decor and soft music playing in the background. forgot i was in anaheim in a random small plaza.

Tried this with a few family members and the service and food were excellent! I wasn't sure what to expect, however the waiter was very helpful and pointed out some great dishes to try! Overall it was a great experience and would recommend to all my friends and family to try!

Great food and good service. Decent amount of seating. Cozy environment. Parking lot is fairly limited considering the number of business there. We ordered the traditional combo platter and it was very good!

Excellent service and food. We ordered the traditional combo for 2. Came with veggies and meat, which made pairing sides a delight. Think our fav was the doro wit with the pickled onion salad. We had our meal mostly in silence - a telltale sign of food that warrants a return.We appreciated the hand sanitizers at every table. Great touch with the string lights too!

Friend and I came for lunch, which turned out to be a quiet and relaxing meal :) it was our first time eating Ethiopian food and we really enjoyed it! Our server showed us how to eat it and was overall very attentive throughout our visit. Service was a bit slow, but it seemed like it was only our server doing all the serving and cooking??? Maybe another cook at most?? Anyways, on to the food!What we got:- Traditional Combo for two people, which consisted of Doro wot (spicy chicken stew) and what you see on the big serving plate are lentils, cabbage, collard greens, tender beef prepared w/ house herb blend, tomatoes, green peppers, onions, berbere (spiced red pepper powder), and (spiced, infused, and flavored butter). This came with a side of injera, which was used to scoop up the food from the plate. It was a fun and delicious eating experience! There was so much food, my friend and I split up the leftovers and I had it for dinner that night. Overall, I would come back and bring more people with me to eat!!

Delicious food and wonderful service, no complaints. Also the music was divine and so are the decorations.
