Anyone unfamiliar with Ethiopian food (like me) might be a little lost with the menu, not because there are too many options, but because everything sounds more or less the same. The menu has a few appetizers and several veggie and meat entrees, which all come with injera, a spongy sourdough crepe. I'd recommend the SAMBUSSAS as a starter and LAMB TIBS as an entree. And you can't go wrong with the VEGETARIAN COMBO, which will give you sampling of almost all the veggie entrees. The food overall was pretty tasty and I really enjoyed anything cooked with berbere (some sort of chili/spice).

For anyone who hasn't had Ethiopian food, there are no utensils (unless asked for). You basically break off pieces of injera and use it to pick up the meat/veggies or dip it in the more hummus-like veggie dishes.

Entrees range from $10-15 and portion sizes are big and filling, especially with the unlimited injera. One entree can easily feed you for 2 meals, so it's definitely worth the price. Being the fatass that I am sometimes though, I ended up eating much more than I should have..

Service is pretty good here. Our server (who I think may have been the owner) checked in on us a few times to ask how the food was and to see if we needed more injera or water.

===========

SAMBUSSA ($4) - 5/5
Comes with 3. Kind of like samosas, but the dough is thinner, airier, flakier and crispier, and the inside is filled with ground beef or lentils. We got the ground beef, which was amazing! A little bit of spice and so much flavor

LAMB TIBS ($14) - 4/5
[sautéed in spices, onions, tomatoes, jalapeños, berbere]
Juicy and delicious! The jalapeños and berbere give it a good kick, but more heat would've been even better. The dish was on the greasy side for me but tasted so good that the greasiness couldn't stop me from eating more of it

VEGETARIAN COMBINATION ($12) - 4/5
We ordered the vegetarian banatu/firfir, but I'm pretty sure they gave us the veggie combo now that I'm looking back at my picture. The vegetarian firfir is supposed to be vegetables and pieces of injera in berbere but we definitely did not get that on our plate. The veggie combo didn't disappoint though and was a really good sampler of many of their veggie entrees

    -MISIR WOT - 4.5/5
    [split lentil sauce made w/ berbere, onions, ginger, garlic]
    Orange/red and similar in texture to a thick tomato sauce. A little bit spicy from the berbere, which I loved. Definitely one of my favorite veggie options

 [cabbage, potatoes & carrots]
    Another favorite from the combo. Not as flavorful as the misir wot but I like that it actually has veggies in it

    -GOMEN - 3.5/5
    [collard greens]
    A little bitter but still pretty good

    -KIK ALICHA WOT - 3/5
    [chickpea cooked w/ spicy tumeric, ginger & garlic]
    Yellow and a little thicker than hummus in texture. Not bad but didn't impress me

    -BUTICHA - 3/5
    [ground chickpeas, peppers & onions]
    Reminded me of a potato salad in taste and mashed potatoes in texture. I actually liked the flavor but it felt pretty rich and heavy so I could only eat a few bites

    -AZIFA - 3/5
    [lentils sauteed w/ onions, jalapeno, ground mustard seeds & lemon]
    Served cold. Also kind of rich/heavy

VEGGIE MEDLEY ($10) - 4/5
[mushrooms stir fried w/ peppers, jalapeno & berbere]
Solid. Not super special and pretty greasy, but very flavorful

KITFO ($13.50) - 3.5/5
Flavorful lean ground beef, cooked to a nice medium rare. I liked it a lot at first but wasn't really a fan of the half raw ground texture after a bit

INJERA (complimentary)
The entrees are served on a giant piece of injera. I've only had Ethiopian once before and didn't like the injera much because of the acidity, but was pleased with the injera here. Theirs was soft, spongy and tasted like sourdough without being too acidic. I don't really like sourdough in general so I wouldn't eat the injera on its own, but it works well with the entrees and soaks u
    

Tadu freaking ROCKS!

Was really craving Ethiopian food and after not finding anything comparable to Seattle, I decided I didn't care and wanted to try this place (the five stars lured me in).

The first time we came here, it was an hour before closing to find that there were no seats and it was SUPER packed. There's only five tables, so plan accordingly. We waited and waited, and thankfully right before they closed they kindly seated us.

We started off with the vegetarian sambusas (ask for the hot sauce, it spicy and delish). The edges were perfectly crispy, we practically inhaled them.

Next up, the vegetarian combo, beef berebere banatu, firfir, lamb tibs, and shiro wot (so I know this is a lot of food, but leftovers are the best, so whatever).

Bf ate the ENTIRE veg combo by himself. Not only is it super flavorful, it's massive (one of those can't stop eating, it's so delicious), and you get enough injera to swaddle a newborn baby elephant in. 

They even brought us a bite each of baklava since we waited outside for an hour for a table. So nice (and so yum).

I absolutely love the beef berebere banatu, and shiro wot. We never come here and not order both of those. 

Also, they have gluten free injera (FROM Ethiopia!!), like no joke. Order this (+$3) and you'll leave without feeling fat, no matter how much you dig in. It's a bit more tart than the regular injera, but so so delicious, absolutely fluffy, and perfectly moist. I never skip it. I gladly take the the left overs home and make my own berebere firfirX (lentils, chicken, etc.) to enjoy for another day. 

The staff is always so helpful, very kind, and remembers you. 

Seriously addicted to this place.
