Authentic Ethio African

My friend's bday was Valentine's Day so I asked her to pick a spot so we can get together and celebrate the next day. We decided to go to this spot at 11am Saturday which is when they opened! We were seated and greeted right away which was awesome. Entering this restaurant transports you to another place! The decor, the seating, everything was so authentic to who they are and what they serve. We absolutely loved that.We sat down and ordered drinks. It looked like there was only one server so it did take about 20 minutes to get our drinks but they were absolutely delicious. Then we asked what she would recommend to eat as we had never been there and she recommended the sharing platter of vegetable and meat. We got two veggie and two meat, spicy and mild and a side of rice. Let me tell you, it was flavorful and it did not disappoint. We were there for quite a while cause we just enjoyed the whole atmosphere and took our time with the food. We ordered another round of drinks and those came fairly quickly. Next time we will order dessert as well! Definitely a spot to check out! Worth it!

Have eaten here many times. Atmosphere very pleasant Excellent food every time On this last visit, service was very very slowNot crowded when we walked in, still it was slow placing orders. Feel sorry for those that came later when it got really crowded

Service was excellent and place was clean.Food was delicious and savory. Good portions and variety of vegetables and meats.

We came here for lunch, and we very impressed. The food was authentic, flavorful, and reasonably priced. I liked how we could build our own plate and mix and match vegetarian and meat dishes. My cocktail (The Afro) was also good, although I would have appreciated more unique options. The inside was beautifully decorated and the servers were all very nice. I'm only rating it a 4 star instead of a 5 star restaurant because they were out of quite a bit of food, which was disappointing. We wanted to get coffee and dessert, but they were out of the carrot cake I wanted. Other than that, we would definitively recommend this restaurant and will be returning ourselves.

Recently dined at Authentic Ethio with friends and shared both the meat and vegetarian platters. The meat platter, featuring perfectly cooked beef and chicken, was bursting with flavor, complemented by just the right amount of spice. The vegetarian platter included delightful options like collard greens (gomen) and cabbage with carrots (tikel gomen), (among others)all cooked to perfection.Both platters were served with the famous injera bread, which had the ideal spongy texture for scooping up the dishes. Eating with our hands added to the experience, enhancing the authentic atmosphere of the restaurant. The friendly service made us feel right at home.To top it off, the baklava hot toddy was a standout--smooth, honeyed, and lightly sweet. Overall, a fantastic dining experience!

We loved our experience dining here! We got the vegetarian combo 10 sides and the meat sampler and enjoyed all of it very much. The food was very fresh and flavorful. The restaurant was clean and welcoming too. Customer service was amazing. Highly recommend!

This is the best place ever. Great prices and food is out of this world. Great healthy comfort food and the owner is so sweet and kind. Overall great service!

Meat sampler platter for 2 for 19 bucks, great deal. Baklava was mildly sweet which we liked. Server was very nice, he helped a lady carry her to go order to the car- all of the staff seemed to really care.

Came here day after V day with Sherpa and it was a nice experience. I've been wanting to come here for some time as I follow them on other social media channels and liked what the posted.Very solid Ethiopian food here and we ordered the 2 veg + 2 meat sample platter. Lentils and doro wat dishes. Price also very reasonable!They also have tej honey wine here and it was nice to have some after a long time!Nice experience with Ethiopian art displayed throughout.I would love to come back for the teff carrot cake and ceremonial coffee.Service was really friendly and prompt. I will definitely be back!

We were visiting Phoenix and wanted a nice different dinner experience. The ambience is very low key and relaxed. The service is very friendly and accommodating. The food is great!
