Uchenna

The food was delightful, with melded flavor as if simmering overnight. The service was welcoming and sweet. Mya is a great ambassador for her cuisine and culture. We enjoyed reading about the broad influence of Ethiopia on the world. And felt relaxed and unhurried. Though we did not have one, I can see reservations being useful on the weekend. The tables filled quickly.

If you want not just authentic food but a dining EXPERIENCE, this place is a MUST! The flavors were incredible, the decor and atmosphere were outstanding, but the real delight was Maya who is the matriarch who served us. Her spirit was like nothing I’ve ever experienced, her stories rich in culture, and her warmth was like that of a family member that you can’t wait to spend time with and talk story with on holidays. Felt like I was a guest in her home and I can say HANDS DOWN was the best overall experience I’ve had since moving to Colorado 3 years ago. Thank you Maya and you’ll be seeing me back on the regular🙏🤙🙏

First time having Ethiopian food. Everything was good. It was awkward using the bread as a utensil, but I think I did OK. We finished with dessert which was also delicious. I believe we were served by the owner and she was a sweetheart. My only complaint is that it was very warm in the restaurant. We were amazed at the affordability. My husband and I both had entrées, desserts and a drink for $50.

Everything was amazing. You need to make a reservation so they know how much food to make that day. The service was very personal and fun. All of the food was the best I've ever had at an Ethiopian restaurant and I've been to many. If you are looking for a fun, unique experience that you won't find anywhere else in Colorado Springs this is the place to go. We tried the chicken, beef and lamb as well as all of the desserts. All of it was 10 stars!

This is a special place. Its not like a big box restaurant. Set your expectations for a calm quiet environment. Served by the sweet soft spoken owner. She serves meals to guests as if you were a guest in her home. The food is pure comfort food, served family style. No utensils are offered instead you eat your food with this wonderful sour flatbread. We love the lentils, the mixed veggies, the lamb and the beef. All meats are organic, hormone free, cruelty free, and grass-fed. 85% of their cuisine is gluten free

Wish I had visited this restaurant sooner! We had a vegetarian and meat sampler platter with lamb and beef. Ordered spicy. It was ALL delicious. Loved the communal dining experience with our group. Can't wait to come back. Maya is a lovely kind lady and made the meal a wonderful experience. She is there to help with any questions you have. Note, this a meal and experience all in one! Even my 6 year old wants to come back soon.

This was more than a meal it was a true cultural experience. The food was amazing but more important was the atmosphere created by Maya. She welcomes you look your mother and teaches you about her country while serving your food. Prepare to spend some time here it is not a rushed meal, but well worth the time.
