Piassa Restaurant & Mart

Great food and experience. The space is so rich in details, information and history about Ethiopia. The food is flavorful and authentic.

It was our first time there with my family. The people there were very hospitable and we truly enjoyed the food! Also, love the atmosphere of this restaurant

Just shared a wonderful lunch with nine team members from work. We shared 3 huge platters, and had such a great time. Our waiter, Samson, helped us select platters to share so we'd have some of everything. Fresh, delicious, and authentic. Loved the strong spicy aroma in the air, the music, and decor. We felt like we were transported for a few hours. Highly recommend!

I went to Piassa to celebrate a birthday. Unsurprisingly, the food was fantastic! I ordered the lamb wot and shared some tibs, and bozena shiro. The lamb wot was juicy, nicely seasoned with berbere, and quite spicy! The shiro had a near-perfect consistency, and the tibs were tender, well seasoned and kicked up a notch with the sauce served on the side. However, I have been on the fence on whether to give it 4 or 5 stars. I can't give Piazza 5 stars. First, I do wish they served our food on one big injera instead of individual plates, which would have made it easier to share all of our food. Second, unless you are getting shiro, chechebsa, or one of the cheaper menu items without any drinks, be prepared to spend at least $25 for dinner. Piazza is somewhat pricy! In addition, I was overcharged for tella. Either update the menu prices, or get good at math! Lastly, it's no Ghion, which is what I would recommend instead if you want to go out Ethiopian food. It's cheaper and straight FIRE in quality! To Piassa's credit, it's nearly impossible to beat what I consider a restaurant with master class food. If you are close to Piassa and don't want to drive a distance, Piassa is still excellent.
