I came to Addis Ethiopian Restaurant recently and had a pretty good experience overall, though it wasnât the greatest Ethiopian food Iâve ever had. The seating is mostly normal tables and chairs, though there is a couch and some traditional seating areas against one wall.

Staff is attentive yet they let you eat in peace. Food is soooo tasty. 4th time here. The portion size is great. Roughly $17 for the veggie platter. Flavors are sooo rich. Bathroom is clean and parking is out back or on the street. Did I mention, the feeling of eating with your hands and licking the seasoning off your fingers taste sooo good (given that you have washed your handsđ). Overall, love this place hence why I keep finding my car in the...
