This place was amazing. Very small. I spoke to the chef. No dedicated gluten free spaces but 99% of the menu is naturally gluten free. The injera is made in house from 100% teff flour. The food is delicious, the service is fantastic. Cant wait to come back!

The only kind of injera available is 100% teff, and of course all the various stews are gluten-free. The only thing to watch out for are the sambusa, but the owner said she’d actually tried to make them GF so it shows she is aware of the problems celiacs have. The food was delicious and very well spiced, although not spicy. For some reason the medium and large plates were the same size, but maybe this hadn’t gone through to the order. The owner was very kind and knew exactly when to give us more injera.

Update: don’t come here when it’s busy: there could be cross contamination with the sambusa.

Awesome food. I tried one of everything on the menu (except the sambusa, which is the only non-gluten-free item) and it was all delicious. And it didn’t feel sick.

Gluten free injera! Need I say more? The whole restaurant is almost all gluten free (everything on the menu, except for the samosas) and all the injera is gluten free! I have celiac and ate safely (and deliciously!)

Cozy place, the lady makes you feel like you’re at home in her kitchen! The food was tasty and is all gluten free because the owner herself is gluten free! You can customize the portion size which was nice too.

Recently added a gluten item to their menu (sambusas) so no longer all gluten free. I experienced mild cross contamination symptoms after eating there unfortunately.

GO HERE! Best Ethiopian food I've ever had and 100% gluten free and vegan! It's a one woman show and you'll feel like you're in her home kitchen. Hole in the wall spot but good grief is it AMAZING!
