Nile Market - Washington DC

Very good service and love the pictures of Ethiopian and proud Ethiopia (e.g. the king of Ethiopia and the bassassie) on the walls. great experience for a Sunday evening tète-à-tète. we had the place for us around 17 clock and really enjoyed us.

Delicious food. Friendly people, both staff and locals.. Good prices. I was very welcomed, though a different ethnicity. Nice collection of Ethiopian artifacts. I can see why Ethiopian food is the rage! Seemed very authentic food:. I had a lamb dish with a side. Live far away but want to return! Wow! (Visited two Saturdays ago.

I don't know if this still has the restaurant attached, but I have been to the restaurant twice (December 2012 and spring of 2013) and both times the food has been superb. My classmate who is Ethiopian recommended it as her favorite restaurant so the first time we went it was for my birthday. It was my husband's first time trying Ethiopian cuisine and we both loved it. The honey wine was also delicious. The second time I went was with several classmates and it was again the best food. Some of them had not had Ethiopian food before and everyone liked it. I would highly recommend this place above some of the more popular well-frequented locations. This is more of an authentic experience. And FYI, injera as a leftover is quite good with fried eggs, onions, and peppers the next morning!

Reminded me of the food I grew up with. Very delicious and filling. The staff was great and to top it off I was able to buy some ingredients to make my own from their market next door.

Compared to other Ethiopian restaurants, the portion sizes here were a bit smaller. Typically, a vegetarian sampler/platter is enough for both me and my husband, but we found that we needed to order two this time. However, when we ordered a second platter, it came in a larger size. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was pleasantly relaxed and laid-back.
