First thing I want to know is what did I order vs. What I got. I went to this Ethiopian restaurant to treat myself by not cooking the meal myself. Since the pandemic it seems like a lot of places have changed cooks or something and the food taste different or off so I started making my own Ethiopian dishes at home to get a familiar flavor. Also, I have never tried here. I usually go to Red sea but that's the main place where it seems like a different cook/recipe. I wanted beef tibs and ordered a "combination" #30. I ordered it to go. When I got in the car I tasted a piece of ingera and just tasted heat and no flavor. I immediately went to the store to buy my items to cook because it was bland with heat. I finally got home and when I looked at the meal there was the smallest chicken leg in there a hard boiled egg and sauce. If this dish was tasty I wouldn't even be mad because I love try new and different foods but it was not. I gave them 2 stars out of pity but for some reason it doesn't matter with a 4.2 rating ig the food and because that's the only thing I tired, even though I'll never go back out of disappointment. The waitress did the best she could being the only one there and the food came out fast enough for not being busy. In the future , even if I was picking up a dash I would not go here as a fear of getting a bad rating because someone being disappointed by their meal

This place is truly one of my favorite restaurants in this city. The food is Prepared with care. The wait staff Is very respectful and greets you with a smile and surely want you to have a wonderful meal. When it's all said and done and you have thoroughly enjoyed your meal. Their wonderful smiles let you know that they are pleased that you enjoyed something they take such pride in making. The atmosphere is perfect dimly lit, Ethiopian jazz playing and the people are wonderful having nice conversations around you. With no pretense the food is spectacular,coffee wonderful. If you call yourself a true minneapols urban dweller this place is a must experience restaurant. Late night hours, open till 2:00 a.m. You truly feel like you are part of their family when you leave.

This restaurant is amazing! The menu items were all clear with descriptions and pictures and even samplers to try out what you would like. If you really want to try out different types of dishes, they even have a buffet weekdays during the lunch hours. My favorite dishes are the “awaze tibs” which is basically cubes of beef spiced in different Ethiopian seasonings that you can also have in lamb or chicken version as well and the “Doro wat” which is basically a spicy sauce dish with hard boiled eggs, chicken drumsticks and peppers. It’s very authentic and the vibe is very relaxed and the staff is so pleasant. I will come back again for more dishes. Try this place out once and you’ll be addicted!

I grew up eating Ethiopian food at friends houses all the time so I've had some experience with home cooked Ethiopian. I've also been experimenting with making Ethiopian stews at home, and came in to Dillas to try their stew sampler plate. It came with a lot of injera (the fermented bread) and was overall pretty good. I found it was on the blander side, and the food could use some salt. I was able to buy their berbere spice to take home which was super awesome. The spice doesn't have as much heat as I expected which leaves room for me to add in what I want. I would come again to try more foods. The waitress mentioned that their Sunday lunch buffet is closed until further notice.
