Fidel East African Restaurant — Restaurant in Aurora

I have mixed feelings about this place. It's a restaurant that wants to be a club. They have a pool table, bar, a DJ (with music that's too loud for people having dinner), and instead of typical tables they have "lounge-y" chairs and a small, low table. Place was kind of sketchy, too and the service was spotty. I was having a pretty bad time.... ... and then the food came. Oh my God was it tasty. And they don't skimp on portions, either. Loooots of meat. Decent price. This place should drop the whole "club" thing and just stick to the restaurant part. If I come here again, I'll probably just get the food to-go.

Not too bad. Lighting is a little dim for my taste. Went out on a date here for fun, it was very quiet in the afternoon. If you are looking for hurry up and get your food, this is not really the best place. We waited for some time before our food showed up, which is I'm told quite common as Ethiopian restaraunts go, because its not just the food, its the community experience of sharing a meal.

The meal btw was A MAZE ING!! No utensils to speak of, you eat with the bread that you are given with the meal (injera). We had both meat and vegetarian bits while we were there and everything was great. Will go back again any time I'm craving...

The music is a bit loud, but you can hear each other at the bar still. I was gonna give this place a 4/5 because I like the hole-in-the-wall feel (and the good food)!

But when I was almost done eating, I saw 10-20 brown, beetle-like bugs crawling all over the bar counter, napkins, walls, and clustering at the ceiling. This was disgusting. Because of the bugs and my doubts about the health code being passed, I gave it a 2/5 despite...
