Hands down the best place in Eugene!! The food is well made with love and can’t be beat. The owners are so nice and treat you like family. I myself am Eritrean, and this reminds me of home. Definitely will be coming back!

Wow, first time having Ethiopian food and we loved it! We ordered the Beef Tibs because we were really hungry and there was a bit of a wait for their popular Doro Wat. It seems like they sold out since it's the most asked for dish. They have a very small and simple menu, which I like. They have options for meat lovers and options for vegetarians/vegans. While we waited for our order, we could see them making the food. Looks like they put in a lot of work into it and the kitchen looks clean as well. The two people working there (owners I'm guessing), were very friendly and made us feel welcomed. It was also nice to see that they accept credit/debit cards. I saw a couple of 3rd party delivery stickers, so you can find them on UberEats and Grubhub. Now, as for the food, it was delicious! I can't compare it to any other Ethiopian place, since this is the first time that we've tried this cuisine. The Beef Tibs had tender meat, a flavorful sauce, yummy veggies, the right kind of spice, and good spongy Injera. We had never even heard of Injera but it was fluffy/spongy and sour. The flavor mixed well with the bold notes from the Beef Tibs. Our plate also came with one Samusa, which we had to go back and order more of. These are small crispy pastries filled with lentils, peppers, onions, and garlic. Overall, a great experience starting with the customer service all the way to the last bite. I definitely recommend this place and I hope to see them succeed. COVID has hit small businesses hard, and I'd really like to see the food truck scene come back!

The first time I went there I wasnt thrilled. The beans tasted canned and the veggies were bland. I decided to give them another chance. I went back and ordered again. This time the lady freaked out and was screaming at the man. It was really bad. I was embarrassed for him and left without my food. I won't be going back.

They have such delicious food and they've got such big hearts! Some of the sweetest and most genuine people I've met. You can taste the love in there food and it's always FRESH. I had to convince my friend to eat it but he totally loved it.

Being Eritrean myself, I can say that this is some of the best authentic Eritrean/Ethiopian food you will ever get. The owners are amazing and the prices are even better. I would recommend getting any of the combo plates and lots of sambusas. You won't be disappointed!

Really delicious food, very very reasonably priced. You'll be full and satisfied. I love the injera bread particularly which comes with most of the meals. It's one of my favourite food carts downtown.

We had the Doro Wat and the Beef Tibs and both dishes were excellent. We are excited to try the rest of the menu. Excellent job!
