This was a spontaneous visit before getting on the road. It was a warm, cozy experience. The ambiance is absolutely gorgeous along with the food experience. We were treated with kindness and care with good conversation and recommendations. The honey wine was top notch. The food was plentiful and tasty. I loved the sambusa as I’ve always had it with lentils. Theirs includes veggies with a nice consistency. Look forward to returning on purpose and on a spring day. I would enjoy hosting a gathering of some sort here.

We’ll be back. The Azifa lentil appetizer was incredible, I need to replicate that at home. The mains were huge portions and delicious. The vibe of the place was great, service was very nice. 5/5

So good! Big portions and lots of flavor. We split it between 5 five between the two dishes and still had leftovers to take home. The servers were nice to give recommendations.

Awash was great and really hit the spot since I had not had Ethiopian since pre-Pandemic. I ordered the meat combo for 2. Amazing price for both the quantity and quality of food you get. The lamb was my favorite but honestly every single item was good. We ate everything, including the soaked bread underneath.

Very tasty, just spicy enough. I walked in and asked if I could be out in thirty minutes to catch a movie. She told me "no problem" and guided me to some quick, easy suggestions that mixed meat and vegetables. The did came promptly, was hot and the njira bread was fresh. The music was African rap and hip-hop, like Ice Prince from Nigeria, which added to the vibe. An overall very pleasant, not crowded at 5:00 on a Saturday afternoon, experience.

The staff was very kind and accommodating. The food was incredible! It was meant for two but it was so generous I believe it could easily be for 4. Very reasonable prices considering the quality of the food. Loved it!

Quite possibly the best Ethiopian place you can find, for more than one reason. First of all: It's not just authentic and tasty, it's also some of the bigger (and hence more fairly priced) portions I've had in any NYC Ethiopian restaurant. For some reason other places skimp out like crazy. Secondly: They have a wider selection of (again) authentic Ethiopian beers. Other places have few and widen the selection with trashy US beer. Third: The wine list is extremely well currated (with actual Ethiopian options) and fitted to the taste and range of a good menu. Awash gets extra points from this dude for having a balanced space with balanced lighting and music volume. Atmosphere! Brooklyn restaurants, it f###### counts! Many other restaurants could take a cue or two from this place. Staff is above and beyond, always nice and on point. Such a pleasant experience. Remember to get the house-made chili-paste/sauce side! Brilliant!

The food here is great. We had sambusa with mixed vegetables for starter. It was really good, and so was the entree meat platter combo for two. For dessert we tried the raisin rum cake which was fantastic. Their Ethiopian coffee is a little too espresso-y for my taste. The staff is very attentive and nice. Highly recommended!
