Ethiopiques cafe and Restaurant

Food is a good way to understand culture. First time trying out Ethiopian food and could draw parallels to South East Asian cuisine. Waiter was knowledgeable and walked us through the menu and various options. Chechebsa, Injera, salmon, lamb and vege platter were good. The price point is a bit high.

My husband and I usually go to Desta but we decided to try Ethiopiques since Desta is a bit of a drive. I believe we’ve found our newest spot when we have that craving! Great job Ethiopiques! We were welcomed right when we entered and seated right away. We got the salmon tibs and the chicken tibs, one little gripe about this, it seemed like we got more salmon than chicken. Other than that the seasoning and the way the items were cooked was impeccable! We will definitely be back!

I finally decided to have Ethiopian food again ,not a big fan because I find their stews and some meat dishes to be greasy and heavy. ( only reason I didn't give five stars). The restaurant is lovely and pleasant, great friendly service. Very well decorated, the ladies room is very unique. The food- oh, the best lentils I have ever tried, I could eat it everyday. The dish is called fuol and it is one of the appetizers. I did find rice to be very delicious, almost minty flavor,and of course the coffee was smooth and strong , I don't know what they add to it , almost tasted like pumpkin spice. The special we choose consisted of the lamb, steak and five veggie sides( huge portion). Great place!
