I'm giving this a 4star because I don't know Ethiopian food that much, had it long time ago so not much to compare it too. But the food was delicious. Injera was just the perfect sour and spongy, red lentils were on fire like spicy but good spicy, Cabbage and potatoes delicious, the chicken was yummy and the lamb tibs was good a little lamb-y but good I had the veggie platter $18 The service was awesome.. so nice and kind Cute in there and plenty of sitting

Haven't been to this restaurant in over a decade! And it's just as good as I remember. Ordered two vegetarian combos, side order of the chicken drumstick, rice, Ethiopian lemonade, and iced coffee. Everything was on point flavor wise and portion size wise. $18 for a veggie anything seems like a lot but it was cooked well- flavors and spices, so delish. Red lentil definitely packed a little heat. Also came with a little salad and some beets. Plenty of injera along with the meal. The iced coffee had a great spiced flavor to it. And the lemonade, made in house was refreshing and not too sweet. Oh and my side of meat, chicken drumstick, fall off the bone tender, tiny bit of spice, with a lot of flavor also. Service was lagging that day, a lot of waiting to order and pay. But the server explained at the end of the meal they were short staffed. The ambiance is unique, they even had outside seating. I just wish they cud throw some fly traps up; I was having to swat flies away throughout my entire meal. But it won't stop me from coming back here.

Stumbled upon this hidden gem in Adams Point with my GF while on our run. It was my first time trying Ethiopian food. My Gf suggested we get the veggie and meat sampler for two. The portion size was perfect for two people and it was a great way to dry a little bit of each item. I am usually not a big fan of vegetables but I have to admit my favorite items on the sampler were the yellow lentils and cabbage. The staff were friendly and efficient. The restaurant was spacious with beautiful artwork to appreciate while you're waiting for your food. Although we enjoyed the food, I am giving it a 4 because we wish we could have selected the items on our sampler instead of it being a pre-fixed sampler. My GF really wanted the mushroom tibs, which weren't an option on the sampler.

This was my first time trying Ethiopian food and it was the best experience! We came as a party of 4 and got the three person meat & veggie sampler platter which filled all of us up! Very cozy ambiance with plenty of seating (there was no wait either!) There are no utensils except for napkins but that's part of the experience. We got the injera bread (which was like a fluffy sourdough wrap) to pair with the sampler. Would recommend to go with a large group that can EAT because the portions are huge!

Great food, ambience, and date deal with the sampler & honey wine! Service was quick and friendly even though we came in at the last hour before closing. Only thing to note is that I love sour food & the injera's sourness here started getting to both of us. However, I still love the sourdough-y fermented buckwheat flavor and still recommend! Do proceed with caution if you are sensitive to sour flavors though. The veggie & meat samplers were all so delicious. Give it a try! The area around the restaurant is really lovely to walk around as well :)

Fast service, CLEAN, awesome ambiance, awesome prices for 2024 esp. and excellent flavors! One of my favorites by far. Servers have good energy!

I'm not sure of anywhere else Ethiopian food is served besides Oakland, but it's been awhile. And i think I like this place better than anywhere else I've been. I liked the ambiance of this place. Decorations and paintings depicted a rich heritage of community and family joy. What I really like is that meals can be shared. And even for two we couldn't finish it all. Some had spice but it was a nice kick. Drinks were good too. Service was friendly and was helpful with the menu.

The meat and veggie platter at Enssaro Ethiopian Food is truly a culinary masterpiece and my favorite Ethiopian restaurant. The lamb curry was cooked to perfection, with tender pieces of meat in a rich and aromatic sauce that had me savoring every bite. The flavors were robust and well-balanced, taking the dish to a whole new level. The veggies were a delightful surprise, fresh, colorful, and bursting with flavor. Each vegetable dish added a unique element to the platter, creating a symphony of tastes and textures that left me thoroughly impressed. Enssaro Ethiopian Food has truly won my heart with their exceptional food.

I love food, and I love trying new things. I have only had Ethiopian food one time and enjoyed it. That was about 8 years ago. Came here during a Sunday afternoon. It wasn't too busy a groups of people. We were sat immediately, perused the menu for a few minutes. We decided on the veggie and meet sampler for two. I thought everything on the plate was absolutely delicious. It has such great flavor. The portions were huge and we ended up taking some home for later. I definitely enjoyed the vegetarian dishes more, but the meat dishes were very good too.
