This was our second time eating here, the first time my partner had no problems. The food was delicious, and nothing happened. Unfortunately, we ate here last night with visiting family and the sudden onset of a gluten exposure began that evening and was full blown by the morning. We have to say please use caution while eating here as a symptomatic celiac. My partner hasn’t been sick for 4 years thanks to this community. It’s unfortunate to have become sick from such a great restaurant but to also lose another safe place as a celiac. It was a very special experience and we hope one day we can find another safe Ethiopian restaurant.
The staff at Beteseb were great with being careful with gluten, dairy and nut allergies that our party had. The waitress had helpful suggestions and everything was delicious! 😋 There is no printed gf menu, but the menu has an easy-to-use qr code that links to their online menu, which has clearly marked allergen/dietary icons. The waitstaff are also knowledgeable about what the food is made of and how it is cooked. Such a great, casual place with fabulous food! We will definitely be back (especially for that shiro)!
Atmosphere is bright, staff is very friendly and helpful, food is good. My only issue was that the food took a long time to come, so this isn’t the best choice if you’re in a hurry.
