Cintain 昆.Cintain 昆遊龍: Some of the best Ethiopian/Eritrean cuisine I've found in the US. Kitfo is amazing: delicately spiced and silky texture. The Salata Tibtib is great, and the lentils as well. Highly recommended!

Maru G.Maru Grünthal: Great food. Great experience. Great service. We had all veggie dishes. The lentils one was a bit too spicy for us.

Joelle S.Joelle Suarez: Sit traditional and if you like spicy food, try the #10 ground lean beef. Owner cooks everything herself with ingredients imported directly from Ethiopian. Best of the Boston area!
