Smoke'N Ash BBQ

Great experience here - both tasty and safe food! We arrived early and spoke with the owner about GF options from the Ethiopian side of the menu. (We wanted to try Ethiopian food only on our first visit.)

The owner was very knowledgeable about gluten and offered so many helpful suggestions. We loved the lamb tibs as well as the beef stew and lamb stew from the Ethiopian Meat Platter. The injera was good but better with salt. The sides were not as amazing except for the cabbage and carrots, which I loved. Next time, we want to try to doro wat and some of the BBQ options.

I’m happy to find another great local restaurant bringing a unique food to the area while also handling food sensitivities. Highly recommend.

Tex-Ethiopian cuisine. I've always eaten her Ethiopian food as I know it's typically GLuten Free. Her Injera is 100% teff, which is actually hard to find in the US! My favorite is the vegan platter with lamb tibs. I haven't asked her about her BBQ but she's always been happy to tell me ingredients if I had a question. I've never gotten sick in the years I've eaten here. (Celiac)
