Review
Lovely people and delicious food. They were really good about checking in about cross contact and when we ordered baklava to go (for my husband) they double checked it wasn’t for me.
As the other reviewer noted, the ref only injera is available but cooked on the same griddle with gluten so they suggested rice which was delicious. So nice to have Ethiopian back in my life!

Review
Very knowledgeable about cross contamination and celiac! Said the teff injera wasn't safe for celiac as there was cross contamination but was able to provide rice as a substitute. Pretty much all main dishes are gluten free and delicious!

Review
Very cute Ethiopian cafe. Most things on the menu are GF (just watch out for the French bread and pitas). They specifically offer GF (just teff flour) Injera - they do charge $2 more though. They have coffee shop drinks and a dessert case, although the desserts don’t look gf. Check out the little market they have inside for some reasonably priced spices and Middle East and African specialty items.
