Enssaro - Oakland

If you are an Ethiopian cuisine lover, please make an effort to visit this place. Possibly one of the best authentic Ethiopian food that I've had. Their spices and flavors are just right and bring a burst of flavors to your pallet. Their fish tibs is one of the best items in a the menu. The location is a plus, where you can stroll around the lake after the food. It's a must-visit place, and they are priced moderately.

One of the best Ethiopian places in the bay area. I drove all the way from Sunnyvale to go eat there and definitely not disappointed at all. Their Ethiopian nachos with that salsa was 100/100. That's definitely my personal favorite.

Favorite restaurant in the neighborhood! I usually get the veggie platter Ethiopian Nachos; both are vegan. They have a large selection of drinks. I enjoy the Ashlei’s Ethiopian iced tea. The nachos are the hot item here in my opinion, they’re fire! The flavors of the salsa pairs really well with the hummus and chips, and it’s all house made! A truly unique and incredible dish, don’t sleep!

There is a wide variety of options available at this Ethiopian restaurant. I particularly enjoy the unique Ethiopian spices, which are subtly used to enhance the flavors without being too overwhelming. With so many choices, I decided to try the veggie sampler and I'm glad I did.

I don 't eat here anymore but it 's unclear if Enssaro ever had many vegan options to begin with. On their menu, they list items containing ghee as vegan and a dessert with honey as vegan . Multiple people in the local community have said that items labeled vegan were never actually vegan, and unfortunately, that seems to be my assessment as well after more times of trying to talk with the restaurant and get answers. If you ask staff if they have vegan options, they just made a joke about things having no flavor and won 't answer clearly. Updated from previous review on 2023-05-08
