Addis Ababa Restaurant Menu

Sorry, We are updating this restaurant menu details.

    I love Ethiopian food. I really really do. I just can't handle it on a frequent basis because I feel full for two days afterwards. But we decided to try out Addis Ababa, which is conveniently located for me. The restaurant was on the empty side, but the service was slow, but really good. We asked for some recommendations, and got a pastry appetizer ($1 for each flaky crispy meaty goodness?!) each and shared two meals between the three of us (and had way too much leftover). We got one of the combination dishes which gave us 2 meats and a lot of veggies, and one of the Tibs which was so deliciously and perfectly flavored.

    I love Ethiopian food, so this 1 star is almost entirely the service, not the food. We went for a group lunch, about 12 people, at 1pm. There's 2 other groups in the restaurant, I'm not sure if they were in before the group got there or not, since I got there a few minutes late. My friend and I sat down just as the waitress was taking orders from the rest of the group. I quickly find something that sounds yummy to me, and help him (not an adventurous eater) pick something that won't freak him out. The label on his item indicates it's a beef dish, prepared anywhere from Raw to well done. He tells the waitress the number on the menu, and points, she asks (I think. Sadly English wasn't her second or third language) what meat, and he and I point out that it says beef. A few exchanges that I'm certain neither party actually understood take place, and then he points out he wants it well done... She doesn't get it. Finally "Extra cook" seems to register. An hour and twenty minutes pass before our meal arrives. Yeah over an hour. We suspect maybe they ordered the food from another Ethiopian place, and had it delivered. During that time we had to ask her to refill our water as all of us were bone dry and just sitting there talking around empty glasses. The food itself was pretty good. Mine was far oily-er than I've ever experienced at an Ethiopian place before. To the point where I would strain it as best I could with the spoon before putting it on my Enjira, and oil still seeped out almost immediately, soaking my fingers. Kinda gross. Oh and she was supposed to split the bill for my friend and I. She misplaced my credit card, and charged both our meals to his, then I had to have her look for my card, lost somewhere in the 15 feet between our table and the register. Taste wise, I enjoyed my meal. My digestive system on the other hand, not as thrilled. I won't be going back after that type of experience. I'm usually pretty forgiving, trying at least twice before deciding I hate a place, but that kind of service, when not during a rush... absolutely unacceptable. Thank goodness there was a Carl's Jr. Across the street.

    Order the awaze tibs. This place has new owners and they are doing an amazing job!

    Buna buna buna! Stumbled upon this place after a sushi dinner and couldn't miss the fresh buna, just like you would get in Ethiopia. I'll be back for dinner shortly!

    Date(s) visited: about 1 time. Food/Drink: 3/5 Service: 3/5 Atmosphere: 3/5 Price: 3/5 Parking: 4/5 "Great place to dance while you are waiting for your food ." Food/Drink: the food was ok. I had a chicken stew with Injela and my other half had the vegetarian platter. The chicken was quite spicy but the vegetables were somewhat bland. They have a full service bar here along with Ethiopian beer that you can order. Portions not as large as some other places but I have been. Injela was a LITTLE on the sour side. But Overall ok. Service: waitress was quiet for the most part and I can forgive a language barrier ( especially if I am going to an ethnic restaurant for ethnic food) the manager there was are really nice guy and continued to check on us to make sure we were okay. They even turned up the music for us to dance on the dancefloor while waiting for our food. Atmosphere: pretty ethnic small and quaint place. Only thing is you notice a big hole on the ceiling what it looks like the Air conditioner or some metal piece sticking out which looks like its going to drop on the floor. Price: ok. We paid about $21 for two entree dishes. Parking: Parking can be hard to find especially with the fact that Sushi Katsu is in the same building and the line is out the door. MY THOUGHTS? I think that the service from the manager was great. I may give this place another chance being that I've only been here once. RECOMMENDATIONS:

    I ate here while visiting some family on vacation. It was the first time I had eaten african food. Very flavorful and huge portions. I'm looking forward to returning.

    Ok, so in all fairness, this was my very first experience to Ethiopian food, and I wasn't all that thrilled about it, but some wonderful friends from Ethiopia took us there for an authentic meal, so of course I said yes. Alright, I didn't like the food. At all. But I promise, I am only basing this one star review on the service, since I don't have any other Ethiopian food to compare it to. We arrived about 10pm on a Friday night and were seated. There was about 10 of us in the group and I relied solely on their recommendations when it came to ordering. We didn't get our food until 11:30pm. An hour and a half we waited for the food. And the place really wasn't busy at all at this time of night. There was only another table of four in the restaurant aside from us. I don't intend to go back at this point, I think I am more inclined to try another Ethiopian restaurant and give the food another shot, because I can't see myself waiting an hour and a half for food anywhere ever again.

    Conveniently situated next to Tana Grocery (see previous review), Addis Ababa Restaurant will take you on an Abyssinian adventure. The delightful and charming staff fully intend to "wow" you with a number of seldom-seen (in Denver, anyway) dishes. The Suff Fitfit takes firm. juicy chopped tomatoes and spicy pepper chunks and mixes them with bits of springy Injera bread, then douses the whole thing in a hearty sauce made from ground sunflower seeds. A healthy salad comes alongside with more of those tomatoes and peppers as well as red onions and lettuce. The Qurt, by contrast, takes the usually-served-raw beef dish called Kitfo and brings it to a whole new level by using even-yummier prime cuts. Served with the incendiary spice mixture called Awaze, this one is sure to stick in your subconscious - but remember to give the restaurant advance notice! And if you really can't decide - why not mull over the Mahberawy? This combination treats you to huge portions of two meat dishes and even more vegetable ones. Believe me, you will not be hungry after this. There is also quite an extensive breakfast menu (please note that the eatery opens at 11 am), with offerings ranging from the porridge called Bula Genfo, made with enset (false banana plant) starch, to the Oromo specialty Chechebsa, tossing chunks of Kita (toothsome wheat bread) with clarified butter and zesty Berbere seasoning. Truly, a gastronomic odyssey awaits you at Addis Ababa.

    This place is absolutely delicious. If you are a foodie, particularly acquainted with African food, this is a must-try. The prices are great, the service is friendly, and the dive-bar appeal is perfect in the late evening. Casual diners need not bother - foodies... Bon Appetit!

    Probably better for dinner. Not a lot of items available for lunch. What was available was ok, will have to try some other things on their menu to give a fair review.
