Amazing experience, I’m so happy I gave this place a try. The restaurant is quite small but we didn’t have issue getting a table immediately. Service was very friendly and food was delicious. Lentil Sambusa was filled, came out hot, very tasteful. The main dish...Read More

Amazing Ethiopian food! Chicken was cooked perfectly and the other entrees were delicious. This is also one of the only Ethiopian restaurants in NYC that does NOT charge for sharing. The place is small and cute with art and nice warm lighting. The women that...Read More

It's best to come with a group of people as we did, so you can try many different dishes. We came directly when Haile opened, and by the time we left the restaurant was packed with merry eaters. Our server was very helpful and gave great...Read More

Its run by 2 women, seems like they cook the food themselves. Food was amazing, almost like home-made food by mom. The ladies were very warm, attentive and nice in serving. Definitely coming again for the cozy feel and great food.
