A favourite dish to try here is the Special Ethio Chicken. It comes with two tender chicken legs cooked with caramelized onions, garlic and ginger, served with soft-boiled eggs and cottage cheese. The chicken also comes with injera, a traditional Ethiopian flatbread. For $22, this is a generously portioned curry.

Another popular dish is their lamb stew. The lamb is slowly cooked to make it a tender and juicier meat. Curry powder, ginger and more are added to deepen the flavour. The stew is thick and goes well with the injera bread and fresh salad. The salad comes with iceberg lettuce, fresh tomatoes and jalapenos.

We also recommend trying the Kifto Dulet. This dish’s main attraction is seasoned ground beef. The meat is cooked with red onions, jalapenos and every bite comes with a hint of ginger and garlic. Scoop up this mouthwatering meal with some injera bread and enjoy a delicious dish for $20. This meal is big enough to share with friends.
