    Although not strictly a vegan / vegetarian restaurant, you'll find vegetarian dishes equally highlighted on the menu as their meat counterparts. Order a veggie combo, tear off some injera and tuck in!

    Great lentils and doro tibs. Service is usually a bit slow but food worth the wait.

    While there are better Ethiopian restaurants nearby / in SF (notably Moya), service was slow / hit-or-miss and the food was under-seasoned, Cafe Ethiopian will satisfy you if you are craving Ethiopian

    Super delicious food, great for groups. Try getting the combo plates :) sadly, they don't have Ethiopian coffee :/

    Try the Combo Platter - One of the better (best?) Ethiopian places I've been to in SF. Very tasty and super authentic flavors!

    Portions are very small or the food was really good. Either ways, I was still hungry at the end.
