This café is an excellent choice for individuals looking for a quick and delicious meal while running errands in the morning. Despite its discreet location, it's a true gem. The baked goods and Ethiopian coffee were exceptional, and the café's modern interpretation of traditional Ethiopian design is charming. The owner's passion and enthusiasm are evident, making him a pleasure to encounter. His commitment to growth and customer satisfaction makes him an owner worth patronizing. With only 10 months of operation, the café's popularity is impressive, particularly on warm summer days. The love and care invested in the space are clear, resulting in outstanding food and drink. It's an ideal spot to stop for a great cup of coffee, and I look forward to returning to try their scrambled eggs.

The food is delicious. We had breakfast eggs and breakfast eggs with beef. A very unique blend of spices paired with injera bread was so good. We also did the Ethiopian coffee ceremony. It’s definitely an adventurous experience and you have to be patient because all of these things take care and time to prepare. This cafe is owned by very kind people and it was fun to chat with all their regular customers. The owners explained the coffee, dishes and spices to us! Very enjoyable!

It's hard to put into words how good this place is. They really care about the customers and you can tell they make everything fresh. I don't even like coffee but I love their coffee.

Delicious food and coffee and a really chill atmosphere. A gem in a spot you wouldn't think to find one. Update: finally got to eat breakfast here and it was bomb. The Ful Special is filling and only $12. Also my son came in crying and the owners were super kind -- they gave him a bunch of snacks and helped calm him down. I'm really happy we found this place.
